What! No MINI? It's not suitable on this track with the big american cars, it will literally get beaten off the track with the way I know the yank tanks will need to be driven around here.

Oh dear, I'm really not 'getting' this track I did a No Grip fun race here a couple of weeks back and I was slow, really slow, most guys (who'd done a league race there a few days before) were racing closely in the 1:37-1:40 range and there I was understeering round in my mini in the 1:43s. So I've tried the Mustang and managed a 1:41.7. Hmm, there must be some secret I haven't yet fathomed, and I do have to admit I'm not the quickest at learning new tracks. Never mind, sod the pace, Oulton is a really good track, almost as much fun as Brands, it'll put a big grin on my face no matter where in the field I place.

Now my G25 has turned up the question is do I have enough time to work out how to use it in clutch + H-shifter mode?! I suspect I could be very inconsistent near the back as I learn the new wheel.

I'm still using auto-clutch when using the H-shifter, as constant use of the clutch on my floor makes the pedals move too much. The carpet grippy thing's not that brilliant!

I have a 5 kilo weight on the floor in front of the pedals to stop slippage

My mouse is magentised to it so if it's not there, I can't select it Thing is, I consider it perhaps the most fun car in the game. On some tracks the Falcon can beat it though, and it can be fun to drive a tank every now and again. Oh, and even in the Alfa I won't be winning and unlikely to be on the podium since I've not run that track before. Had some problems at Brands Hatch last time....or was the alfa not available there?
