Notes On Route Taken - Seanman

Take Grove Street straight until the big wide road. Take a right on that and a left on the road leading to Transfender.

Well done GTA_Phreak.
You do know that you could have joined the freeway under the bridge where the Rhino spawns? - might have been quicker.

Bad luck everyone else
Seems that you all used the same route - bet that raised area slowed you down a bit.

As for mine, I only had to brake for the left/right before the railway bridge. Otherwise it was full throttle all the way. Shame I had trouble with the traffic though.

Yay! Back in p1

Well done GTA_Phreak.

Yeah I know, - but it's an rather awkward blind turn through a narrow gap. The other is much simpler, - you can even take it flat if you like wall-riding.

In case someone is interested, - here's a video of my run (short one this time)

Nice video! Thanks for putting that online.

Maybe one of these days I will learn how to race cars.

What did you use to capture the video?

 

[GTA_Phreak]

It's recorded on PC using Fraps www.fraps.com
You need the registered version to record more than 30s.

Cool, thanks.

GM, when is Week 4 starting?

 

[GM]

Sorry I'm late, I'll try and get Week 4 up today.

I was thinking it might make sense for the winner each week to create the next weeks race. That would give you (GM) the chance to participate in some of the races, and at the same time it would prevent the same person (GTA_Phreak/me) from winning all the time. It could also lead to some very different races due to different people thinking them up. Just a thought.
