It's awesome, but I've hit the wall with it. I haven't been able to get better than 5.74 seconds. The world record is 5.57 seconds...

It’s all your taps, short sharp. Roger is right in terms of which taps to focus on, but the real key is your first 3 they set u up, as you can’t pick up speed later in the race

Do you mean the initial first 4 taps or the last 5 taps or all of them? Roger said I should focus on 1-2-3-4 and then 1-2-3-4-5, then take finger off the gas and final clutch to the end...... Being real here I am getting steadily faster, but it's probably gonna be like Skiing and Barnstorming, meaning I will hit a wall and fall short of you Atari Kings.... 😜

Good improvement !
One thing you really need to focus on is the Tap of your shifts.
They need to be Short sharp taps or a one frame tap, currently your shifts are long causing the tacho to be in the red longer than they should be.
These long taps dont allow you to build speed
