Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Didn't realise there was a sale on at steam, will have to take a look. Don't forget I will be holding a RRE GT3 biweekly series in a few weeks so now would be a good time to get a few GT3's!

The practice server is now up and running for tomorrow nights race!

Tried a couple of laps in timetrial, leaderboard mode with the new Audi, Merc, Calloway Corvette and Porsche and a half attempt withe Maclaren 650s but looked like i was ontrack for a similar time. All on defaults or close to but for all of them was suffering with loads of understeer so couldnt attack as i wanted but were all around the mid to low 1:29's except the porsche which was a 1:28:7. Really enjoyed the porsche because it turned in really nicely.

Hopefully numb tyre feeling isnt there when on the server. Just isnt feeling particularly connected to the tarmac in any car.

I do love Nurburgring GP track so was happy with that aspect but hadnt driven a car like this for a while. Never did get a handle on sorting the front end as the fronts were close to being yellow. After a mistake by Pete managed ot get in the lead but was focusing on the closing Frex. Pete panicking about people disappearing was a bit distracting, but managed to stay ahead till the flag! Hard going! Good race with Pete and Frex/
