On upshifts I don't like clutchless up shifting with lock on as it feels like it doesn't like it,
3rd to 4th out of paddock I should be clutchless
2nd to 3rd our of Druids I should be clutchless
3rd to 4th on the bottom straight should be clutchless
But 3rd to 4th out of Clearways I used the clutch as I had lock on.
But I also sometimes forget and use the clutch whatever gear I'm changing into!! It's an element of my game I need to work on, along with left foot braking and braking harder and later.
I've only just got my head around gassing on before the apex and using the throttle and diff to pull the line tighter and kill the understeer something that I've only just realised at brands and how much quicker it makes you.
From the videos I'm around 57 seconds compared to a minute at my last Brands day. I think the car has a 54 or a 55 in the hands of a real driver. I'm gonna get my Vbox sorted and actually start to work on these things.
