Have you never seen Renault Clio racing?

Yes I know, a light tap plus sticky bumpers. It's a weird bug, making contact with air means you can't steer and it's harder to slow down.

I call foul play! And as self-appointed race referee as of a few seconds ago I'm going to have to disqualify you and require you to do it all again please.

[born2bslow]

I already have, probably upload it tomorrow. I was 3 seconds slower over the race length, but it was much tidier and I got boxed in at the start so it was a bit tougher so more fun. I did nearly bin it on the last lap though.

51.723 on my XBone.
Wierdly quicker in automatic, as manual clutch leaves it at high revs for a second when changing gear.

[thebraketester]

Nope... dont like this one. To get a fast lap you have to bin it into the gravel trap. and then the next lap is ruined. Unless i am missing somehting


51.528... CBA to keep trying.

Replay below, much cleaner race, got my overtaking spot nailed, but I still have to yield into turn 1 as the AI can just take it far quicker.

Try the Clio challenge, I'm enjoying it much more than time trial. I'm going to try the same thing with different cars, to see which ones are tougher to beat . Gonna have to do the Falcon V8, it's one of my favourite cars already

[thebraketester]

Yep... tried the clio challenge, much more fun. Will hopefully get time to have a proper stab at it this week

I've have just tried it out for the first time, last time GeForce Experience was unwittingly installed it removed my Nvidia Control panel but it doesn't to that any more so I have installed it, clean driver & GeForce Experience install.

Playback using Windows Media Play is almost twice as fast as captured and there is no sound.
I tried VLC and it at least plays back at normal speed with there's still no sound either.

Did you have the same problem?

[born2bslow]

No problems here with Shadowplay, other than the latest update switched it off. I just manually switched it back on. But it records fine.

I think 3rd to 4th has to be the most underwhelming gear change I have ever experienced.

Could at a push get 49 out of it I think.

You were only meant to do 10 laps, not 11.

Git.

I won't be attempting it as I hardly have the patience just to do a one stage time trial, never mind 10 full laps. I might have a go at my fellow pad-wielder J.Bradders off the top spot on the single stage when I have an hour spare but pretty busy with other stuff atm.

Might be a 48 in me if I can luck out on a good entry point of that sweeping final corner.

As newly appointed referee of piss taking, I declare that you're not allowed to take the piss unless you have a go yourself.

Step away from the keyboard...

[HorneyMX5]

It has occurred to me that as it's been proven that max lap times on the PS4 vs PC are at least a second slower in most cases the PS4 users such as myself are going to really struggle with the race challenge. Over 10 laps you could have something like a 15 second deficit to a PC racer and assuming the AI cars lap at the same rate on both platforms that will always leave you fighting in the pack till the end.

I've got as far up as 7th in this challenge but I'm so on the limit to stay that high up I end up making mistakes and end up back at the back. That time on the board is the only time I didn't rage quit a race and thought I may as well drive to the end for practice. I couldn't even see the rest of the cars by the time I crossed the line.

I'll be interested to see how one of the top PS4ers manages with this weekly challenge.
