El capitan record

[metalslugger5]

Hi again gran turismo addicts!!!
One of my favorite circuits is "El Capitan" so i decided to try to do a self-record at this circuit and try to play with manual transmission. Since 28/4/2010 I'm playing with manual t/m.
I started running with: Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 and now I'm running with Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01


This is the list of the top ten records I've done so far at Free Running mode

1. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 5/5/2010 (today) 1'26.269
2. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 1/5/2010 1'28.322
3. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 29/4/2010 1'28.481
4. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 5/5/2010 (today) 1'28.847
5. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 29/4/2010 1'30.116
6. Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car '01 28/4/2010 1'30.632
7. Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 27/4/2010 1'30.908
8. Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 27/4/2010 1'31.647
9. Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 27/4/2010 1'32.044
10. Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 28/4/2010 1'32.048

This isn't really a race report, more of a laptime comparison, so it's being moved over into the more appropriate area of the forums.
