ing hard is what I have to say.  I could not pass the 8th test for the life of me.  I tried for about an hour at a time on two different days.  Then I went back to it and got it on the second run.  The others weren't too terribly bad, none of the other tests took over an hour.

For the benefit of us UK gamers who are yet to receive a copy, could you guys explain what was so hard on the test?

I went to bed last night with only #7 and 8 remaining... 7 seemed easy enough because i got within 2 secs. on my first try... i'm scared about 8 though!

will let yall know tomorrow if i got it!

What's so hard about it?  Well, test #8 puts you in a Toyota GT-One, an over-powered rear wheel drive car.  If you don't have good throttle control, be prepared for much spinning out, something that's not good for your time.  Now, put this car in a very tight, twisty course with so many tough turns that you have nightmares about it.  Complete this by watching the demo driver take the course like a monkey on crack.  And then realize that you couldn't hope to drive that well even if that hot-young intern was offering to put out if you could.  The first time I completed the track, I had around 1'44.  You need to complete it in 1'35 for bronze.  I knew I was going to be sitting there for a while.

i tried it for about an hour last night before i gave up... i thought the slow miata test was hard!  my best time was 1:35.134 - bronze is 1:35 - SO CLOSE it makes me so mad.  this is extremely frustrating.... anyway after work can anyone guess where i'll be????
