Have you tried to follow the 1:52 lap. Some very lucky "moments" where I swear I'd get a "!" if I did the same thing.

A question of plugging away I suspect until you happen to nail every corner is the only way to beat it.
I still haven't worked out how you load a ghost from the leaderboard confused
Get the leader board up. Scroll down to the person you want to "race". Press A. And it brings up a menu where you can race their ghost. But not everybody for some reason has a ghost saved.

Every single one I have done that on just has Add Favourites, and See Gamer Tag... not necessarily in that order as my brain has had alcohol in between my last Xbox visit and now!

Its only the top so many places that have the ghost but cant remember the number. I suppose it might keep old ghosts if they subsequently get knocked down.

Clocked a 1.55.4 something now, officially.

I love how close it is this week. I need to rethink my approach if I'm going to get in to the 1:55's. My 5 GTT with Clio V6 lump was beyond dreadful frown

I'm only almost 20 secs of the pace this week banghead hopefully i'll smash in some laps in a mo and at least drag myself away from the bottom of the table.

Everyone who's added me recently i've accepted and you'll now be on the leaderboards when we update and on Sunday when the final times are out.

I was thinking maybe this could be a 10 round time trial as any longer and people start to drop off and lose interest. Winning driver then to pick a class of car for a 1 off Nurburgring challenge week to wrap things up?? Also maybe a 2 week run over the Christmas period as no doubt people will be all over the place and not get a chance to put in any laps?

Just some ideas, what do you lot think?

Andy, agree with all your suggestions and a massive thumbup from us all for doing this! If you are ever in my area (not that we know where either lives) I will buy you a beer beer

Really struggling to find some time to get some laps in this week so it might be a one off go on Sunday night for an hour (which may mean my 12th place in the championship could be under threat biggrin)

Just did a 1:59.4 with my Corsa, seems to be the best I can do in that, but going to try some more cars.

Hi Chaps - back home and I survived another India trip so perhaps if I apply some Bombay driving I'll be in the running smile

Wonder how well you can spec up an Auto Rickshaw, Bond style...
