I've had a go in the Subaru Legacy, which was terrible. So I tried the RX7 Spirit, faster, but slides quite a bit. So I had a go in the 911 and I think I've set my best time with it, but I'm still lapping over 1:40, so I'll keep having a go until I get into the 1:38's at least

I believe someone has set a time in the Esprit, however I can't remember who, or if that time was set before the comp. or not.

I haven't tried the Esprit no. Looking on the leaderboard, Cloudburster has a good time in the Esprit (1:37.0).
Another good car I tried on this track was the Ferrari 355 Challenge.
Welcome to the club by the way!

@ben now it is getting serious and personal between you and me How did you find nearly a whole second? When I am back home later I'll chase your ghost (if there is one).

I hit a 1:39.040 in the Esprit-I think this car has at least another second in it. Do you use a wheel Jim?

Finally broke the 1:40 barrier! Managed a 1:38.7 in the Chevrolet Camaro anniversary edition. It's definitely got more in it, just need to get the first turn and the following hairpin right and I'll have a way better lap time.
Happy now that I'm in 4,033 place. I'm catching you too guys

No, I use a controller.
I'd love a proper set-up with fanatec wheel, chair and pedals, but its too expensive.....and the mrs wouldn't appreciate it taking up the living room lol.

Well, hit a 1:47.543. There's more in the Lancia, but I just don't know if my fingers can take much more. I didn't even notice Ben2012's time of 1:47.544 II have a feeling he'll be hitting the track again
There's also a new number 1 : the guy hit a 1:31 in a Lancia 037!!Not quite sure how

Did you mean 1:37:544?
I am hitting the track again though, desperate to break into the 1,000s

My current time is what shall stand.
Today is the deadline and having had another go both yesterday and today I can't improve my time by anything, so I'm officially done here, but I'm satisfied with my time, I set a goal and I beat it which is enough for me

I managed a 1:37:465 in my loved Lancia 037 and I am done now with Sunset.
This evening I start to send the Elise to everyone, unfortunately there is no club livery until now, so I'll gift them unpainted.

Thanks Axel. I enjoyed the comp (and will also enjoy the prizes!)
The Elise looks great. I will take it for a spin later.
For my prize, could I take a Devon GTX please? Many thanks!
