I can't say this new PB isn't slightly disappointing... I decided to switch things up and run the default time of day variant of the track, rather than the Night version, to see if there would be improvements. Being able to see further ahead really helped with trajectories, though braking markers are harder to see when not highlighted up by the headlights (headlighted? :P). Faster bots really helped, as I usually run into traffic on Lap 4 on the Night version.

I was noting down times and was predicting a final time in the very low 26:40:00s by the start of the 9th lap. By the time I reached the last part of the Porsche Curves, rear-ending an RSR pretty much meant saying goodbye to the 26:30:00s, but the poor end to the lap meant a poorer start to Lap 10, followed by missing my braking zone on the first Mulsanne chicane, and getting a last lap nearly slower than my first :/ I noted down the lap times, though there is a discrepancy between the times that flash at the end of the laps, and the times recorded:


 * 2:48.143 (not the fastest, but adequate)
 * 2:39.173 (on target, as I aim for 2:40.000 a lap)
 * 2:38.053 (fastest lap yet, and opening the door for a possible 2:37.XXX)
 * 2:38.841
 * 2:40.661
 * 2:38.531
 * 2:38.812
 * 2:39.986
 * 2:41.479 (what could have been a new fastest lap completely threw me off my last)
 * 2:48.057 (off-rhythm, barely doing better than my starting lap!)

At least, I improved leaps and bounds in regularly getting sub-2:40 laps, until next free Agent or Fame bonus... :)
