Do you think the extra 6sec is gettable? Or is the car mod or track just a bit slower than real life?

Going by my Tuesday times there's probably another 2-3 seconds in it, but I'd be disappointed if I was 6 sec off the pace. :'(
I think it's the car, as my PB in the 2017 was in the 33s.

I think you are correct since there was a similar gap at Symmons Plains - we were in the 54's and lap record was 51 something.

It's also a bit strange how online comments about the Supercar handling doesn't relate to any actual knowledge of driving a real V8Supercar. Rather the comments seem to mostly relate back to the rFactor mod as if it is some sort of benchmark.
