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
20.007
16.983

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...
 
21.566
19.881
16.897


21.505
20.032
16.844


21.444
19.941
16.863

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.

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.
 
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
