I don't even own an R1 car.....

You don't need to buy the car, if you go to Hot Lap from the main menu and choose Nurburgring then you can choose any car you like.

You can also buy a tune from the Storefront and apply it to the cars in the Hot Lap section of the game without actually buying the car.

I'm at work at the mo but i'll post up a how to tonight along with the full leaderboard.

Do not know why I an not in the list, I send a FR and was in the last list.

I managed a 1:32.687 P 1233 on the Leaderboard, Porsche Cayman

GT : TeXeN7

Don't worry, I have you on my list @ 1:32:687 in the Cayman.

I think some of you sent FR to me and some to Nessie so we have different lists.

It'll all be fine when I do the update later

Congratulations to Pulsatingstar for a blinding lap of just over 1:29 to add some valuable points, how the top man on the leaderboard manages a 1:26:9 i'll never know
Well done though matey

Next round is the Final round 10 and will take place on the Nurburgring full circuit using Class R1.

The round will take place over 2 weeks which means it all ends Sunday 31st Jan 2010.

Good luck everyone and may the best man win

p.s. Current lap record on the leaderboard is 05:37:090 in a #3 Toyota GT-ONE

I haven't tried this weeks yet but it sounds like a nightmare!
So far, only a few have set a clean lap although looking at the leaderboards it seems a lot have tried and failed

Anyway, a quick 1st week leaderboard clean laps only

I'm glad you've all enjoyed it! Nessie has a little idea up his sleeve add to the challenge further but i'll let him explain

I'm finding it real difficult to run a clean lap on this one, I can do a pathetic sub 7 min lap each time but no clean ones yet.

Those setting sub 6 mins are mental

[Bugeyeandy]

See later post for time, cocked up the edit!!

Alrightie, been back on it tonight, and got me a 6:15.010, which was nice .

Wasn't expecting to get that much off the 6:28 I set before in the Acura, but I managed it in the Audi. Just been trying to get a clean lap round in the Porsche, and failed . So this will probably be my time now.

It's not updated to the website yet but I always do the final board straight from Xbox live so don't fret about the leaderboad above!

SO CLOSE!

Dammit. I'm having another go at this one.

and here's me getting frustrated at my 7:00:360 clean lap!

The talent gap on this circuit is clearly huge....

[Bugeyeandy]

Yahoo! 06:48 Clean

That was from a standing start too - these laps are far too long for my liking

Again our not so soggy Dubai dweller has set a blistering lap with Dimski snapping ever so close at his heels

I think the fact that Asterix has still only set the 115th time overall on this circuit just goes to prove how hard it is and how much time and effort is needed to nail it, watching the replay of the top time (05:36:226) makes me feel ill, outstanding!

I'm really pleased how this whole thing has gone and how much extra its got out of the game for me. Frustrating at times but great fun too.

This weeks challenge is a bit of fun set by Nessie to give the thumbs a rest for all of us controller drivers !!

Fun Round 1

Be creative with the tuning and have fun,

1st Place unsurprisingly goes to Asterix for his consistantly quick times, dedication and commitment to the challenge unsurpassed.

2nd Place to the plucky Pulsatingstar , like an annoying terrier he's been snapping at the heels of victory every round.

3rd Place to Dimski otherwise known as 0o0o0o00o or something! This week he showed his true colours with an outstanding lap but again couldn't quite reign in Asterix.

Special mention this week goes to PirateTaco, only the 3rd of out clan to break the six minute barrier. Great effort.

Thanks to Nessie for this weeks challenge and thanks to you all for taking part and making it so enjoyable,

Andy

So far so good, more tricky than I though this one though....

[Bugeyeandy]

There are 5 people tied to the top of the leaderboard overall at 8.575 all in the Datsun with manual gearbox and clutch and TC on.

I think you've pretty much got it nailed this week

Interesting that their Performance Index is 773 as is yours, wheras mine is 794 - I wonder if mine is just that bit too powerful to get cleanly away from the start???

[Bugeyeandy]

I won't be on this week as i'm off on my holidays today

Have fun cursing the xbox in the drift challenge
