    Hats off to Jack, dont know where you pulled out an extra second and a half on my lap, I reckon I could have gone a few tenths faster, but not the margin you got! Seriously well done mate!! Chuffed for being second twice now, this weeks is gonna be tough though!!!

    Hey, if you guys wanted to go ice racing there are some ice and snow races in the rally section! LOL!

    Naw, at first this car seems impossible but then you learn you just gotta grab it by the scruff of the neck and DRIVE IT!

    Totally agree. First lap I was like , it had been ages since I spun so much and I was getting really frustrated. Specially hard as we are coming from the F1. Then you learn that its all about slow in, fast out; late braking is definite no no; but left foot braking is GO!

    ...and with this car you definitely want to watch your replays!

    this car went into the WAY TOO HARD basket for the wheel... my skills just aren't a match for this car with the wheel... however with the controller this thing is ****en awesome.. the brake induced rear steering is especially nice... i managed well under 8 minutes for the first lap... which included 3 fatal crashes to spins and a partridge in a pear tree.. nice ar and comp though... oh and congrats Jack... again... couldn't find the time last week to get the car and then do the comp...

    It feels so good when you manage to hold a controlled drift you simply have to go watch it!

    We should save the "Heidfeld challenge" for next week...

    hey that 8'22 isn't so hard to archieve, but fun ride if you can control the drift(aka oversteering),lol.
