getting there slowly 51.33 F50 manually shifted.
turn 3 (right hander)and the following chicane need to be nailed for a further decent improvement.

52:27 F50 Manual

I was ahead of the worlds best up to the quick right/left but clipped the barrier which put me off line for the next corner and that lost me all that time! The annoying thing is it's corner 3 I am usually really slow on so if I had nailed the bit where I clipped the barrier I could have had a very very good time.

I doubt I will manage to do that again....

Managed a 50:49 earlier.

My lap is so slow at the beginning. A had about 10 more laps after i set that time and Im up on my best nearly everytime. I was a bit gutted really as i was .39 up on it but just clipped the barrier on the final left hander leading to the home straight so i switched it off then in frustration

I find the most effective way is to plant the front right on the inside kerb, as long as you have the car pointed that way you should be able to go through there at high speed. You lose a ton of time if you mess up there.

Manual

Im happier now

Alun, try and get hold of a memory card if you havent had your 360 picked up. Save your game saves to the memory card in case they replace your whole system like they did with mine.
That shouldnt be a problem, I bought a core pack with hdd so wont be sending it all back. Just noticed, I'm 17th

Minimal lift most times, occassionally full throttle if I feel the line will work. Hitting the right kerbs mostly just makes me hit the barriers, as it's hard to steer with your wheels in the air.

On my next lap at the last checkpoint I was 0.97 up, then threw it all away under the bridge. God, I hate these bumpy tracks !!!

I would of had 49.xx something last night but screwed up the last left turn by not shifting where I should of and hit the outside wall. I was a good 2 car lengths ahead of the #1 ghost under the bridge section. Got mad and went to play hearts with my brother-in-law...
