The best lap I'm able to get on Cutting Coroners with a stock Zentorno is a 59.589 which is pitiful because it's only 4/10 of a second faster than my stock Massacro lap time. (59.979). Broughy managed a 57.468 with mistakes in the first and second corners. (Oversteering). How do I get the best lap time out of it?

Umm...practice?
That's all there is to it. You could improve the lines you take but practice is the main thing.

But how is the Zentorno supposed to be about 2 seconds a lap faster than the Massacro in Broughy's testing but it is only 4/10 of a second in my testing? I'm not going to just say "I got a 1:01 time with the Massacro" to make it even! I also try to take Broughy's lines btw.

Push the car as hard as you can, and that oversteer broughy had is because he was pushing it. Also dont drive as though you're racing because you arent youre hot lapping you will make mistakes and you will crash if you want to get the fastest lap.

Yea it seems to me the slide I get slows me down too much. If I go through smoothly I get about a second better lap.
I've crashed more in the second turn (1st 90 degree turn) than how many times I have made clean laps.
At least I got a 51.502 in the Bati without trying as hard as I can.

It's easier to get a good lap time with the massacro than with the zentorno, which would explain that. And hotlapping is just practising forever

The Massacro's understeer due to it's grip is also more my style of handling, so that's another possible reason.

Focus on taking the corners fast. Hit the apex carrying as much speed as possible without sliding. And watch other crew members videos for the occasional tip  |

Watching'll be easy because I've watched Broughy for about a year now on YouTube.

If you are having problems finding the braking point for the second turn maybe with use a reference point on the left sidewalk as a braking point. There is nothing i could tell you that isn't already in the Broughy Racing School. Watch it again and analyse your current behaviors to understand where the lost time is. If you are watching a video look at the intermediate lap times through some specific checkpoints during the lap and compare it with yours to know how much time you are loosing in every sector. |

I use the last pole on the left for the second corner as it allows me enough time to concentrate on when to accelerate (at the apex) but sometimes the Zentorno's braking is just terrible compared to the Turismo's, which I have a 59,924 second best lap with because I have to be careful of curbs at low speeds or it'll launch across the map!

Interested to know why you are lapping stock vehicles ? |

I'm not going to just say "I got a 1:01 time with the Massacro" to make it even! I also try to take Broughy's lines btw. I'm pretty sure Broughy just took those lines to keep it consistent between the cars he tests, not because they're the optimal lines. There are definitely quicker lines on that track. |

I can't seem to get much money... I had a Custom Bati 51.502 second lap and didn't try as hard. Could get a 50.8 or 9
