Sounds like in-race damage. Check your windshield when you notice that your car is slower. The slightest crack means speed reduction. LMP1's are VERY delicate I find. Even heavy side or rear damage can slow you down.

The other thing is how you entered the last corner before the straight. You have to ENTER a corner near perfect to come out of the corner with optimal speed. Could explain 399 vs 407 easy. It's the most overlooked aspect of lack of speed.

I'm sure many OMP racers are convinced I hacked with my Megane last week at Spa, as I flew past them after Eau Rouge corner. Thing is, I didn't touch the brakes. Megane can take it full speed. Take the perfect line and you fly by almost everyone there. So my speed at the top of the hill was higher than the other's I raced.

Race Group A Weekly Time Trial ghosts and you'll quickly see what I mean. They enter right and drive off big time out of the corner. Jan R. (aka Speed Junkie) is a good choice since he shows what he does in his Braking Points videos.
