The uphill stretch from before the tunnel to the least turn that's boring.

I have a issue with this part of the track. Sometimes my car will hit the entrance to the tunnel at 90kms, while most other times it would be 87-88kms. The thing is, everytime I exit the U bend corner really wide, thats when I hit the 90kms. But if I follow the racing line, I'm hitting 87-88kms

Very strange
 
Nice combo Kevin :)

Reminds me of racing with my dad in Demio's :D
 
After 10 laps, here are my first splits.

T1:0:38.539
T2:1:09.357

I get 88 there too. 89 once, not sure how now. Anyway a leaderboard check shows I have .4 to find in T1 and T2 so I wouldn't be surprised to be off .4 sec in T3 or even 4 km/h at any point.

If someone has a fat PS3 you probably should stop playing it for the next 24 Hours

Thanks for the kind words Kev. And yes Portland is rockin' :) Tho, truth be told I wish I lived in Cali!

Man! My T1 is just getting hammered out there, I'm gonna have to steer my arms out of their sockets to catch up :lol: nice work guys. Don't trust Sony to race some more, maybe tomorrow after I hear things have cleared up.

Got alot of practice riding my lawnmower around this past weekend so I was able to jump right in this week - slighly different feel since the mower is on N2's and has a tad more horsepower. :lol:

Does your lawnmower have 7 gears? :sly:
 
Speaking of gears, this Suzuki has a decent tranny, it's pretty quick shifting.
It does well in 5th gear at the bottom and top of the hill.

Great to drive at a pace that match my aging reflexes. :dopey:

Wow this is tough, some good splits already posted.
Here's mine for the board:

T1: 0'38.447
T2: 1'08.991

ever-so slight improvement:

T1: 0'38.397
T2: 1'08.852

And this is entering the tunnel at 55mph.
How some of you get into the 37's on T1 is beyond me. Anyway, i'm gonna give this up for a few days, it's melting my brain :crazy:

Good luck all!

Point for clarification:


2 wheels outside the white line is a foul?????

Believe me when I say winter has been wicked here in Florida - I think they've actually put a motion on the next election ballot to change the name from "The Sunshine State" to "We Thought It was Hell Until It Froze Over!"

Does your lawnmower have 7 gears? :sly:

No, its more like the GT Citroen - one wicked gear. :sly:

Point for clarification:

I don't believe so - traditionally at Eiger all hard surface is track. The white line doesn't mean anything unless it is explicitly mentioned in the week's notes and I see nothing from Kev on that - hopefully, he'll chime in and confirm this.

New splits tonight:

Depends how far over you get right there - sometimes it nullifies your current lap and your next one just to aggravate you. I just hit restart at that point. :)
