Sweet combo :) no work tonight for me and the wife has banned me from online bingo sites :dopey: so I ran some laps on this as its arcade mode and easy to get in and go... :dopey: twitchy little bugger to get to grips with and i ran it on my non gtp account for a good 1 hour haha :dunce:

best was 21.5/20.1 will update properly when i have a better time on my gtp account 👍
 
Took a little shake down run w/ this rocket and it wasn't too bad. It tops out perfect going in to the first turn and then the fun starts.

T1: 22.146
T2: 20.633
T3: 17.392
Good luk all 👍

in the first sector first left I had a full step out and a save on this lap :lol: Man this car is pipey
T1: 22.470
T2: 20.227
T3: 17.371

Got a save on my GTP account, lost my nerve from T2 onwards,there's still a good bit for me to scrape at the line with a decent end section...

21.477

Seen 21.414 as my fastest T1 3 times now :lol: it wont let me dip under it for some reason :p anyway it's a great combo! I will find time for this event 👍

Cheers
Ron. :cheers:

He-hey, nice to see you in action Ron mate 👍 Great start as ever. :)

Another short blast for me:

21.457
20.061
16.952

Was losing ground all the way to the line through sector 4 and 5 so a bit to tidy up yet. Can't seem to break 20.0 in sector 2...

Not much left in my individual best sectors, problem is I just keep moving the "bad" one around - T4 in this case. Can only take about an hour before my arms start to hurt from wrestling with the car. I have to say agree a little with Praiano on the car, but somehow it gets me around the track pretty fast.

Shut up Jonas man. :sly:

Here's the standard issue 1st-sector-according-to-me video:

It came out in crappy SD because I forgot to change my encoding settings but it should do I think.

The car is trying my patience at times, but I will try to stick with it.

I was wondering about that last right before the back straight: is it worth controlling your speed at the exit of the preceding turn to be able to get farther left before turning? I have a tendency to go straight for the inner curb instead.

If only I had not messed up that third sector :grumpy:
 
First 10 laps, this car is a bit hard to drive aggressively out of corners and when u lose it its too late to recover
