I use the braking line. I've always thought you lot, especially the top of the table, went without driving or braking lines on this so this is all a bit of a surprise hehe .
In never thought about it until today, I use the braking line only and is a guide at best, but I never really thought what anyone else used. Feel a fraud knowing that cheezy has been using no race lines!
I'm ok with you not using them to make yourself feel better laugh

I doubt it makes much of a difference after your first couple of attempts, like you say, they end up being more of a guide. The rules are any assists too... like the week I had to use traction control made me feel the same way! laugh

Probably the most annoying 2 hours ever on this feckin game.
This has to be the most frustrating when it comes to traffic and bullst like wheelie bins and flower pots, not forgetting how even looking at a pavement can throw you off line.
.006 off a 2.18 and I just can't do it.
Thats where it'll have to stay, hopefully its enough as I'm away tomorrow to Anglesey.

Lol, I'm done too. I'm away as of tomorrow afternoon. I've enjoyed thrashing the RX7, whilst I've got close to Cutters with a few rewinds I'm not going to be able to improve from where I am with a clean lap, rwd is just that little bit more unpredictable.

It's a great time from cutters, very smooth and looks near enough perfect in terms of lines and proximity to walls.

I keep forgetting I can rewind, there were a couple of instances where I was way ahead but collected some wheelie bins on the last left hander where I could have benefitted from a quick rewind laugh

I'll have to get back onto this one, I haven't been on since the first night. As a general guide, what's the way to go here, power, chassis, light weight, aero?

I used the eclipse with V8, 4wd, full aero, race suspension and more.

I'm done, I beat Speed after about an hour... and then it took me another 1 and a half hours to beat Cutters. Hitting the beers now.

I've had another go and I can't get into this at all, I'm not sure why. I've gone a little bit faster but not much, and I can't see how to make anything better. I might just pack this one in and come back on Monday.

Just firing up for another try but I’m in a similar place.

My tune for the Evo was tyres, suspension, weight loss, aero and then a little bit of power.

Cutters definitely has quite a bit more power at the cost of handling but I'm not sure where.

I've shared my tune and Cutters has shared his, you could try those and see how you get one with them?

It's not happening, I think I just got a little bit closer to the car ahead, but I'm not going to make any more places. I've tried power, I've tried chassis and grip, I'm just nowhere. See you on Monday, ahm oot.

FINAL STANDINGS



Top ten above Blue line. 4th to choose next week as shown.

Congratulations to Kitch88 for the win this week, very close at the top. Updated table to follow.

As an aside, someone else will have to take this over at season end, I'm struggling for time as it is and we are moving house in 4 weeks, so I might not even have the internet let alone time to do this! Apologies.

Thanks Von, and congratulations to the top 3 excellent times. I was happy with where I got in the RX7.

I'm afraid I won't be able to select a challenge for this week as I'm still away and won't be logged on again until tomorrow night at the earliest, most likely Wednesday evening.
