Managed a 7:35.8 in a spec C last night. Only mod was hard racing tyres and I did the little oil change thing as soon as I bought the car. Other than that, bog standard!
Best I could do with standard tyres was 7:52.4
Just goes to show how important the tyres are when it comes down to it!!


P.s. Anyone noticed how the last set of wheels (far-right) in the Bridgestone set look remarkably like PFF7's?

Just done 8.15:48 in an M3 CSL with medium racing tyres on and stage two exhaust

Edited because my M5 lap time was wrong, i was doing it to the "gantry" instead of the actual finish line lol

my very first time @ the 'ring... a dismal 9.11
oh well practise makes
(that was in Arcade mode - world tracks)

never driven on it, or seen the full course before but what a B1tch!
Had a few flourishes of awesome control, mixed in with a few 90mph slides around a few of the lairy corners- sure if it was RL I'd have been dead! doh

more practise......

Got mine down to a 7:34.702 last night. That 7:33 is a good time Dazza but my car is still standard apart from the tyres so I will do some mods and then see how I get on!!!

8.18 in arcade mode (tweaked to 360bhp) 1st ever lap

I'm glad some parts of the 'ring are in the license tests as I should be able to remember a few parts of the course now
