I only managed to get a go on the hovercraft event today. Took a few tries to get a clean run, the main problem was the left turn where the hovercraft comes across and can move you over into the barrier (the next bit is going up the hill to the right turn side by side with the hovercraft). At least hovercraft contact didn't flag the lap on this one like it did with the Halo AI.

I only managed a couple of runs in one session, just couldn't find the time.

Yeah I had one session early in the week but quickly got bored, it's decent enough, I got fairly close to Chris but didn't go on again to try.

Will try and get a few sessions on this week's challenge.

Just thought we'd have something different, it was one of my favourite courses from a while back.

Sorry it wasn't a criticism, it was much better than the warthog race. Just gets a bit boring without being able to change anything. Not the same without the championship either!

This week's track and car class is good, hopefully I can have a few goes for fun. I'm just going to mess around in rear wheel drive so don't anticipate being particularly fast.

This week has been good, I'm away for the week now so won't be on again but I've taken my time as far as I can, I wanted to break into the top 500 with 2wd. Haven't had chance to try that many cars so I'm sure better is possible nice track this week and A class is always good.

Not much interest again. Speed12 has done well - however that's in a Classis Muscle car, not a Retro Muscle - so nil points for you!

We'll keep it open until Sunday evening, in case anyone else fancies a go.

Think we’re all in the same boat now in just waiting for FH5 to come out. I manage about 20 mins on 4 now before I get bored. Just hoping to get my hands on a series x before launch!

Well done to Speed12 in a Retro muscle car this time laugh

I couldn't get the Corvette to work for me, so congratulations.

Next round:
Cross Country Ambleside Loop S1 (900) Rally Monsters - any tuning, any mods, any gearing

Lol, thanks, i actually found it very easy to beat my former time, literally only took 15 minutes yesterday.

I used Rwd and everything maxed for handling, but I had to add a supercharger to enough grunt and use the stock engine rather than the upgraded v8.

Enjoyable track and car combo overall

Managed to get a half decent time there. I know I’ve got a sub 1.40 in me, but it’ll take some digging hehe
