Well I made more progress working on the fox at BL GP tonight. I went online and set several personal bests topping out at 1:12.380 (Even qualified second out of three drivers once). So now my PB is just under my goal of 1:11.82 which is what my AI guy was running the other day when I was watching him. I wasn't consistently in the 1:12's today but I was consistently in the 1:13's which is about a 1 second improvement from yesterday where I was in the 1:14 - 1:15's.
The big improvement from today was cutting almost a second off my first sector time (the chicane). I was running on average a 23:80 first segment today, which is 0:54 seconds off the AI's time. That allowed me to carry more speed down the straight. I still need to knock some more time off the first sector, but I think tomorrow I'll work on the second sector as I'm loosing a bunch of time in that turn right after the straight. It looks like I'm getting too slow, but if I go in much faster the tires start screaming which won't work for a race of more than about 6 or 7 laps I think. I'll have to look at the analyzer to see where exactly the problem is.
I also took some of your guys advice and watched a few races on a server. They were running 1:12 and change so I'm thinking they may not even have beaten my AI which makes me think setting that as my first goal isn't such a bad idea after all.
Small steps... and eventually I'll get there. Thanks for all the tips guys, its working!
