If these controllers weren't so expensive I would've just launched mine up the wall. Would've given the WR time for that car/track combo a real run for their money until a stupid basic error on that last corner as you cross the bridge.

Oh that came round again quick. I'd better get thinking!
Better be something good, I've set up a twitch account specially to stream my attempts at that if it's set tonight. It'll be after 10pm when I'm streaming mind.

I never seem to be around when live streaming is happening. Could Ian or lisa upload a hot lap to YouTube through share factory?
I'm obviously taking these tight twists wrong if I'm losing so much as pretty much tanking it everywhere else.
I'll see what I can do. Last time I did a sharefactory upload it was a blocky 240p mess on youtube, so don't expect high quality.

Ouch lisa. I was on a good run for me earlier and just before that bridge I let go of controller for itchy nose and clipped the edge of track spinning opposite way. Was almost crying seeing my ghost catch me and then pass.

The 3 main corners for me in the lap are the left hander down the hill before the bridge - you want to be hitting the bridge doing at least 100, the corner before the tunnel - it's crucial to get a good speed into the tunnel, again over 100, and then the long yellow right hander after the blossom trees - this is the one where I lose most of the speed in my attempts, usually going off the road a bit.

All in the spirit of good competition!

I'm not going to get on again, so my best time is set.

Woohoo, managed to knock 3 seconds off my time tonight. Nice feeling. Realising the importance of a bit of drifting now. Those quick turns before the tunnel still kill me though.

Oh, no pressure then

I have settled upon what I'm going for I think. Will send out challenges around 9pm. I haven't been around as much the last couple of weeks so I think I may be missing some people on my friends list. Will try to catch up on that.

Thanks lisa.
unbelievable. You clipped the edge and also a time penalty yet still put in that lap. I think you're just smooth....oh and skilled.

Love we have this ability on ps4 to upload

I know, that bloody corner penalty!! But then I probably would've found somewhere else to cock it up, so swings and roundabouts and all that.

I was too busy thinking "omg, omg, I'm still ahead of the ghost" to be worrying about that. Plus drifting is not the way to tackle them hairpins.

Can't do too many laps at a time as feels weird on the eyes with the sleet. Especially on the downhill. However, each lap is an improvement. I was over 2 mins first lap.

Pretty nifty driving again lisa. Glad to see I'm not only one to clatter the yellow flag bridge though.

I was trying to do different things to figure out a faster way, but sometimes brute force does it best!

That's the combined total of all the updates, the download was actually from 5.85-6.56 so less than a gig.
