Will have another crack tonight if I get time. Are you using auto or manual gears as the biggest problem I have is traction around the tight corners?

Not bad, I've had a 3.00 flat before (psn tag "scleeve"), I use a G25 wheel, but thats nothing, someone posted their full video on youtube of them doing 2.53. Too much spare time if you ask me!

Can't wait for Friday when the full game comes out, currently enjoying the difficulty of Supercar Challenge with all assists off though (well abs on one) and with so many other decent racing games coming out soon (and GT on PSP) I dont' know where to find the time to play them all as much as I want, the misses is already moaning!

Based on a demo with 2 cars and 2 tracks? Or is already released elsewhere?

Aha not used that site before. Ratings are based on magazine reviews etc. Gotcha

Got my lowest down to 3:05, I can see where i'm losing time I just cant do anything about it. Need a bit more practice on it.

Got it pre-ordered of ShopTo.Net: Video Games, Consoles Games, Accessories - Free Delivery in Uk - Orders before 5.30pm dispatched Same Day - for £29.85

I had a few goes last night and lol the number of times lost it in the first few corners going flat out

The one time I managed to complete the course I got 3:09 and can see where Im missing time - way to slow through the u corners and the water puddles.

Any tips of carrying speed through the slow corners - using handbrake doesnt seem to help? Also are you using auto/manual gears?

Cool

Still not sure whether to buy or not, but got down to 2:58.05 using a controller, and that wasn't perfect. I can see how 2:53 would be possible, even lower with wheel and manual gears.
