Happy to suggest an impromptu one after the Chelsea game if Denzil hasn't been on, just a little fun one for tonight. Up to you all?

Id like to propose that on the last day of challenge anyone in the danger zone or whose turn it is to pick next challenge (as Lisa and other top racers would never get to pick) that the next challenge is posted before the current one ends. If it's looking between 2 or 3 then they can all post and when official results are in then we know who to go to.

Oooo nice one Denzil. Is that a point to point or circuit ?

I'm tempted to forget the city game now lol

Circuit as I prefer the continuous racing rather than the stop start of point to point.

I'll nip on at half time for a quick spin round to get myself familiar but will give it a good crack tomorrow. When's the deadline? 10pm Friday

I'll probably get on too before the speedy ones get on. I don't really know any tracks by name so curious to see it.

Hey guys, just wandering if anyone could give me an honest review of this game. This game intreagued me when it was announced but all I have read about is how bad the online servers are etc. Is this game worth a punt? Are there a lot of people playing this online? Thanks

It's all good now. Game is getting more stable all the time. Only thing we're missing now is the challenges.

It's a tough bit to get right, too much speed and you'll slide, too little and the laps a dud! Having a good battle with Lisa on this one, she'll find another second somewhere soon enough!!

I keep getting over a second in front of Yuffie but blew it all away on the last chicane & the corner before the last straight

The ghosts have gone awol for me on Oliver's Landing. Not helpful having nothing to chase. Ghosts are fine elsewhere though.

As for that extra second Ian - I don't know about that! Adding up my best sectors there's a 1:08.666 if I can get put a proper lap together.

Damn!!! I think I'm doing fine and pulling off perfect corners and still along comes the next fastest and flies past me!! I don't know where that extra burst of speed can come from!!

What are your braking techniques? Do you take finger off the accelerator or do you keep it held down whilst also pressing the brake?? I'm at a loss as to where I can get the extra seconds from. Still, this time trial is at least only two seconds between all of us.

Yeah ghosts were hit n miss for me too. Also the face off bits would come and go.

There's not much between the times as there's really not that many corners to make our loss time.

Ya the ghosts are gone surely. I'm ok with that. Sometimes they're a distraction. I'm going by sector times.

OMTT I'm surprised you're ahead of me to begin with and I win it at the end. From the chicane onwards I'm a disaster. I lose so much time at the end. You'll pass me soon enough.

I'm giving up for the night. I was in third logging off, but I expect that to change drastically by the time I get on tomorrow.
