I have to turn the ghost and map off, otherwise I end up watching them rather than the track.

I can't believe people would bother to manipulate the rules just for this though? What's the point, it's only fake internet points.

Be interesting to do same circuit in same class or S1 with free reign on tuning see what the difference is with some reliable grip, or with the same car to see what is capable of, does need to move into S Class with better tyres.

The Sagaris is fun, in a masochistic way, every corner is an adventure into the unknown and seems to have a different response each exit, choosing between boiling the tyres in 2nd or plodding out in 3rd adds to the frustration, but good choice of car.

Yes, it's supposed to be fun, but that doesn't mean it's supposed to be easy! I'm quite enjoying this challenge and learning how to feather the throttle/brakes and trying different gear changes in corners.

This is terrible. As most other people have found the car handles the same corner differently every lap. Understeer followed by massive oversteer in to barriers or my favourite at the mo is smashing into a front door of a house. Il get there eventually.

i'm glad it wasn't just me, i thought i was just tired. can we vote to turn it off?

i did notice an improvement in throttle by changing the dead zone on the controller settings to 0 and 100 and changing the steering to suit my binary control inputs. nothing seems to alter the braking though, it kicks in violently even when feathering it. the only thing i like about this sag is the noise reverberating off the buildings.

btw - have we got holyrood park on the list? that's a fun high speed one. also echo the need for lower classes as i love my imp but no idea if its competitive against other options.

fk this car and fk this circuit. Stay off the kerbs, understeer into the wall; hit the kerbs, bounce into the wall. bks to this, I’m off to do the Goliath in a standard Morris Traveller as I reckon that will be more enjoyable.

I can only take doing 20 laps at a time in this thing until I get really fked off with it.

Still, some people have done some snazzy paint jobs - here's the Sigarus in its natural environment, i.e. sideways as I had the temerity to even glance at either the throttle or brake:

The season itself is lots of fun though, the summer in the city series being a highlight, the last sprint was epic in my lancia 037.

Now Back to the Trevor, yay
