Yes I use offline arcade TT. I do set to real, but I think that is only for off track excursions. I am too lazy to fire up a server, plus I like a ghost to chase at a later date. 

Sorry Dude.  Nothing against you or offline, just that I have learned how to read your practice times. 

I agree. I will say in the past in GT5 many times my times were usually within a tenth. For some reason though it could change drastically. I don't know if it was the room settings, host settings, number of people and their connections to everyone else in the room or what.

I haven't tested lap times, but I know for a fact the grip is MUCH higher (drove an LMP car).

So same fuel, tire wear, grip reduction, etc, settings and much more grip offline?  When will they learn?

Do we know for a fact that offline is faster than online like was the case in GT5 early on, but was lessened to a degree later in its lifespan?

I have meant to look at that comparison, but haven't gotten around to it yet, like so many other things.

I see.  Yea, that should have an impact on times then.

It's not necessarily by design, but as a result of their design, if that makes sense.  Online, as many have documented, can be different from room to room.  The processing and communication of all the details involved in Online sometimes aren't done consistently in every room or race.  That would possibly explain why it is not consistent when Online communication protocols are not in the mix.

With "5", they did a lot to polish the offline Practice mode.  When they included the option to set the off-track loss of traction for Practice so that you could get closer to the typical online settings, that helped a lot.  Then, there were some other "under the hood" changes they claimed to make that we don't know the whole story about.  But people noticed even further change.

I would venture a guess that with new GT6 online infrastructure, it will take a bit of time to get this inconsistency ironed out a bit more.

Last week we had 13 in each race with 14 actual racers. One left after the first one but one came in after the first one. Anyways the point was going to be that we are flirting with a full room possibly. FUCK YEAH!

It will be unintentional, but spinouts will happen and then comes the Chinese traffic jam.

Did I count 14 lanes in one direction And where the fuck does the first Audi think it's going?

I'm betting I'll spin at least 3 times.     If I win I get a cheeseburger.

and when those guys who are walking away from their cars realize they need to return, how will the cars apart?  (everything is silver, mostly)
