- CSL Enduro Race 1 Practice Notes
My beginning lap times for Adelaide were around 1:18-1:20 and a lot of people were doing 1:14’s so I needed to practice for this week’s CSL Enduro race. I used two methods to bring my times down, so far my best is ~1:14.
Time Trial
In Time Trial I raced against the ghost car with a baseline setup until I found I was not improving my times. When I’ve got a track figured out I use Time Trial to test different car setups. By comparing lap times against the ghost car I can see how well the different setups are working.Free Race
When I hit a plateau in Time Trial I switch to Free Race. I start with a custom difficulty, somewhere between 85-100%. In the Series Options I use ~6 laps, grid position set to back, and opposition set to custom. After selecting a car, I select my opposition by first clearing the list, then adding 4-6 drivers. I find it best to choose P1, P3, P5, and P7. This selection allows me to follow the line of some slower drivers if I make some mistakes while allowing me to follow the lines of the faster drivers when I’m improving. As soon as I’m able to beat the AI I reset the Free Race and raise the custom difficulty until I’m playing at 110%.
