Strangely those from Norfolk have no idea what the problem is you are having....

...my family is from round those parts. Holkham actually.

Well to give you chaps a benchmark... i've just popped in a cheeky 1:03:031 in my Golf G60 Synchro.


Top in the world seems to be dominated by 2003 Celica's. Fastest in the World being a 1:00:143


ETA: After a quick tune... thats down to 1:02:476 = 231 in the world smile

I got a low 1:03 in my fat, heavy Audi S4 last night pretty much with my first lap, plenty to come off that hopefully as it was a rough lap

I can't match my Fiesta time in the Celica...

I set my time on my first bash, now I can't touch it.

I've done over 100 laps since trying desperately trying to take another 0.5 seconds off and give me a little cushion, but it's not happening. Freak lap!

what sort of times are you guys looking at.. i think im going to have another crack later...

Might try the rabbit... however i dont know if i can bring myself to buy one as they look horrid compared to my mk2!!

looking at the weight issues, rabbit/mk2/r32/200sx all look pretty viable options...

straight out of the box with no tuning my R32 did a 1:03:3

I then switched to the tuned Mk2 to get my 1:02 time... might try the R32 again.

I don’t like spending Cr on cars that I hardly ever use, so this week I’ll probably be using MX-5 Mk1 or 911 RS. Maybe Integra.

I probably will come last.

Again.

As I work away in the week, I cannot put in the hours of practice some do and I like you am reluctant to spend credits on cars I will hardly ever use, so I reckon I will be challenging you for last place smile
