The mod builds in a lag for shifting. It was there for
H-shifters but it might have been corrected on v.96. You can
have a honor system on what the user will choose in the tuning
menu.

The mod still builds in the Shifting lag for paddles. It is very
noticeable in the 787B. I have been trying the Mercedes using
both H-shifter and heel/toe and paddle shifter. I am certainly
faster and less prone to overshooting the corners with the
paddles and auto clutch. I also have auto blip on so I need to
turn that back off. Forgot I had turned it on for the GTO Race
(Probably why I finished LOL).
I really am not comfortable in these cars and it shows in my
times so far. I am also not nearly as familiar with this track
as I would like. I'll need a lot of practice to get a decent
time.

The Mercedes shifts super smooth, but the 787 I had to hold the
clutch down for a ridiculous amount of time or it wouldnt go in
gear. Hard to get used to. Not sure about the Porsche yet as I
havent tried it.

Finally got some decent seat time with this track. I raced both
the 787B and the Porsche. The 787 had bad clutch lag. If you
didn't hold the clutch in long enough your clutch would slip and
you would have to lift on the accelerator to get it to grab. I
got used to it though and was able to turn a 1:33 something.
I also had to turn off my auto blip and lift in my player.json.
I then went into the tuning and made sure the settings were set
to H-Shifter. this eliminates the auto clutch and both lift and
blip assists. Makes for a truly terrifying lap is you don't get
your shifting (Heel/Toe) right.
I then ran the porsche and was able to duplicate my time in the
787B. The turbo in that car was trying to kill me pretty often.
But again I became used to it and was able to better my 787
time. I am still a bit off the pace and the AI was killing the
time by about 8 seconds.
I am having a blast using the H-shifter and would certainly
recommend to anyone who had the hardware to go in that direction
simply for the challenge.

Make sure to not pick the Le Mans or WEC engine mapping in
tuning, you want the IMSA or whatever one. It's more reliable
and has more power.

Hope to join you but not sure as I have family stuff on. Last
Sunday was Mother's Day in UK so had to miss the Indy Cars.
These cars are a lot of fun so hope I can make it.
BTW. It seems using auto paddles makes a big difference. I'm in
the 1.28's with time in hand.

Well, the 787B has been overdone after the update so its
performance far exceeds what it should actually do. In a short
track with little 100% throttle it's probably the best car
available in this mod.

I don't think there's any question that going with the paddle
shifters is simply going to be faster because you don't have to
worry about the clutch or heel toe. So all you had to
concentrate on is braking and accelerating. But I think for
someone who can heal toe and get around the track a fast time
certainly is possible.

I meant the semi-automatic paddle option specifically. You keep
your foot planted and it shifts seamlessly like a modern car. On
the manual paddle option you have to lift on upshifts. Too early
back on the gas and clutch is not engaged - have to lift again.
Easy to lose time. I'm 2-3 seconds slower using the manual
paddle option, but getting better with practice.
The semi-automatic is way easier and faster. No need to lift, no
fear of messing shifts. Just concentrate on braking and
accelerating, like you said. Too much of an unfair advantage
compared to H-shifting I think. I'll race with the manual
paddles and no assists.
