I got a 1:43.8 last night.  I am finding a good groove right now.  Will probably be more consistent  with 1:44 though.  I went into the practice mode and turn on my drive line and ghost car to try and stay consistent. That seemed to help me quite a bit.

I just ran 2 races, 30 minutes each  with 24 cars and the AI at 105%.  Here are the results:

Race 1, started 10th position finished 1st running 17 laps.  My best lap was 1:45

Race 2, started 5th position.  Got to 1st in 3 laps.  ended up finishing 3rd in this race with 18 laps, again best lap about 1:45

The AI is all over the place, especially around the chicanes.  I think if the humans can avoid the AI then this race will be a battle between the humans.

Nice, yeah I think the AI will be less of a factor in this race and it will be humans up the front...of course one of those humans will be Church and that is always...interesting? 42

also for funsies I hopped in a V8 Supercar and took it for a spin around this track.  It did not go well.  Heavy as hell car, rear wheel drive, and bumpy ass track made for me being in the wall most of the lap.  If i can get fraps working I might post a hilarious video of it.

No worries.  You went with the majority.  With the race already starting 1 hour late, it was going to be tight to begin with.  But the extra half hour (effectively) was too much.  I may be kinda spotty until after the new year, so if I'm unable to attend, don't think I'm holding some sort of grudge (though I can hold a mean one 145).  I think things are going to be really busy until then, and I may be gone for some of the Saturdays.

Such a great race everyone. Grats to you Church.  There was just no keeping up with you for me.  I would see you ahead of me and then you were just gone. 

BTW here is the post I put over at InsideSimRacing.com.  Hopefully this will get some more folks to join up with us.

No problems man its Xmas time people are busy we talked about a possible break till the new yr. Will keep the grudge on the track :) @ church what ill do is after the first 5 races ill eliminate everyone's worst race record and again at the end so everyone gets 2 byes for the season to keep points close for absences I also have beliefes that church has figured out how to mod forza non wear race tires into the game, he was driving the shit out of them...as well as a smoke screen mod lol. No idea how they didn't blow ? He drives it like you would in dirt3 :)

I haven't done any racing with the AI yet, for some reason this track is giving me fits.  I can get some clean laps but section 3 just kicks my ass.

Okay the first corner at the start is consistently chaotic, once through that they settle, the last corner they have a tendacy to run wide, but as only an idiot would go around the outside there it's not an issue. At 100% the top three are considerably faster than me, now that may be because I am slow I don't know. During the race they are...insistant, but not to the degree we have seen before. I have had thre or four behind me for several laps and not experienced any suicide dives, but make a mistake and they will jump on it.

Only a idiot will try to overtake on the outside...
