You are right on my tail! I better get back on it!

i will update leaderboard times in the next 24 hours.

Yeah, Magictap. I've been chasing Trash. I can beat him through the first 1/2 to 3/4 of the track. He gets me down the back straight and in the last turn. I'm gunning for that 1:58.3

try sticking tight to the last turn...watch my replay

First corner is my nemesis, slide so wide.

with worms tune, just decelerate in 4th. i think I'm remebering it right, might need to faintest of taps on the brakes to help initial turn in....then dont accelerate until you can make the turn.

Good to know... I've tried both that and dropping late to 3rd in the first turn for accelerating out. What are you using in the esses before the long back straight? I've tried just 3rd or dropping at the apex to second to get more torque as I accelerate. Also, running right up to the red line in 4th on entry... are you in 5th there or not? T

powering to the redline in 2nd then hit 3rd with a little throttle lift

think i may be thinking of a different part, where the S's?

Right-Left-Right combo(with a bit of a chute before the final right) before the last long straight before the final turn.

There are two lefts you can take wide open leading into it.

think change down to brake then stick to 3rd

oh yesh,,, with worms tune, never use 5th. only go as high as 4th.

Nice... Got up to 1:58.5 last night. Still plugging. Think it will be tough sledding to get under 1:58 for me. Did notice you can hop the curb a little in the middle of the three turn combo before the back straight.

Improved from 1:58.754 to 1:58.1xx (LB#62 as of yesterday). Quite pleased with the result.

I improved a bit still more to come

Nice lap GRD... I was excited thinking I'd passed you up, only to find your new lap time.

Nice work chaps!

current times pulled will post scoreboard asap.

Yeah, and I did not want to lose the place so I had to try extra hard!

LB added to op.

thx trash

Anyone had a good run with the Saleen yet ? ,i might give it a whirl later and see how this thing runs but at a guess im thinking it will be all power and no grip.

pushed it a little further last night.....1:56.478

Thanks for putting up the leaderboard Trash. I pulled a 1:57.6 Saturday night. I think that's the best it's going to be. May start fooling with the Saleen next.
