Well i enjoyed last night thanks Tournie for the lesson has really opened my eyes to cornering and throttle control etc. I will be practising more on Sunset and then trying to implement everything else onto other tracks.
Tournie i know we said to concentrate on getting it right almost had everything sorted did a 1:36 not a clean lap but getting there with the turns and feeding the throttle.
Thats Awesome Paul, practice trying to maintain that time lap after lap. Once you get that down, try to squeeze a little more out of it. Thats 3 seconds faster already!
Just make sure you swap the handbrake and clutch option for the buttons so the "A" becomes the clutch and you press "A" +"B" for up shift and "A"+"X" for down (vice versa)
Makes it easier than using the bumper buttons for it. You'll gain significant amounts of time when you get used to it.
Well its all about car control, to keep it inside the white lines. Still, its a good time you are getting and you must have really improved your technique :)
Paul, are you chasing a ghost? Watch the replays of the top racers and take it all in. Watch what gears they use and where they brake, what line they use on entry and exit, etc.
I learned so much by chasing top 100 and top 10 ghosts.
Vin at the moment mate im following what tournie showed me on Friday mate and have progressed quite quickly with it. Now using Manual with clutch once i have got used to that and better my times and posistioning then i will be going onto reply's mate.
Can you tell me what Ford i need to require please ..
Love ya
Umm, I have this pic up on my storefront, it'll probably tell you? Same car Church has BTW...I think it's the 19 Mother's car? Make sure first though...
When you're adjusting the gear ratios it should be the top bar, not 1st, 2nd...or 6th gear settings
I know it isn't Forza...but some other sim based V8 action to get your blood boiling.

Sherb...May sound like a Ground Hog Question (Repeated Many Times) but how come when you hit 1080 HD the clips stops every 3-4 seconds??
Bandwidth issues....either on your end, YouTube or your ISP.
Try kicking it down to 720P. There will be a marginal difference in quality, but the stream rate won't be so bogged down.

Probably won't be able to make all of them, but will be there if not working. Love the sounds of these V8 monsters.
Thats cool Vin, Its open to anyone that wants to pitch up for all races or just 1 :)
New Pb 134.618 for me..getting there.

New Pb 133.773 for me..getting there.
flying now - are you using manual clutch with that?
No mate will be too many buttons for me to press for now lol maybe one day.
Its not actually that many -
Just make sure you swap the handbrake and clutch option for the buttons so the "A" becomes the clutch and you press "A" +"B" for up shift and "A"+"X" for down (vice versa)

Will have a little play later on today mate appreciated.
Umm, How do you do a Castrol paint in blue???
