Use the brake/gear indicator as an initial guide for braking (Its the red number next to your blue gear indicator.... when it flashes that means Brake!)

Some good races there were Dave and Rittman... once i managed to avoid getting tangled in the first corner with Ant.

Should be a good reply of the last two races

Me and dave overtaking ant either side round a flat out corner and then getting a wee shunt from dave on the last corner and drifting round trying to scramble up the straight

[Edited on 11-01-2011 by AK]
Yep, was good Will get a couple of pics tomorrow/thursday

Ant - I've just set your car up exactly the same as mine and got a 1:13.354 lap. You should now leave the settings as they are for this race. I agree with AK in that I think you are going too fast into the corners, understeering, then going full throttle and sliding round and into the walls. Slow down a bit and take it more steady, brake a bit sooner and you should be able to get round the corners better.

I will send you your car back now.

I only beat by a couple of hundredths

1'12.442

The first 2 are hard, I'll not be hammering them in the race the way I am in practice.

I think where you can make the most time is turn 5 I think it is after the tunnel, I keep losing time there.

Yeah first couple of corners are tricky, think I need to take it slightly wider as I keep getting close to/clipping the wall on the uphill bit before the tunnel.

I think the trick to the corner after the tunnel is to knock it down into third just after you come out and brake with the overrun, this slows the car down more than going quickly into second, then if you can get a decent line through the chicane you're laughing.

Going round the whole thing at about 60mph in third tbh Floor it when you hit the apex, should just hit the grey kerb on the way out.
