    its been fun having my ass handed to me by you jack, cheers mate
    He came dancing across the water
    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls

    To be honest mate you screwed yourself out of a victory last week! I set a time of 3'00.2 which I was pretty happy with, I was just gonna submit that. Then you admitted on the thread that you'd broken 3 minutes. Cue several FRANTIC laps trying to shave a few tenths here and there. Obviously I HAD to win last week, couldn't have retired on a losing note!

    You should've kept your trap shut!

    How are you guys doing on this? Personally I love this challenge, the car responds great to drifts, mostly in the first section. I feel really fast at this, but knowing you guys I'll be at least a second off the pace.

    I find it hard to see on this course...when the guardrail on the left side of the road blends in with the one on the right, and vise versa, at your entry point to a turn....many times I turn in too late or a bit too early and graze the rail.

    Then there's an art to driving this car smooth through the transitions to keep the snap oversteer under control.

    I'm having trouble being consistent. Normally I'm slow but consistent. Oversteer is a problem, but it also does nasty understeer when trying to brake late.

    If this is the phase 2 which is supposedly user friendly, imagine how phase 1 was!!! Also, it feels sloooow and heavy after the cars on previous challenges.

    I don't think the car feels slow at all, I prefer cars where you push the limits of traction around 70-100 and drift a bit, the LMPs with massive downforce are no fun. I think I'm pretty fast on this, but I think I can squeeze maybe one more second out.

    I think the key to this car is precise steering control at all times. Wheel helps a lot.

    got a fairly good time this week... not 100% happy with it though... lost nearly 0.6 of a second through the last sector so i know i could have been maybe a second quicker...
