not if you use your head and think where they can be.
Tbh im just going on what people have said I always use car cam with my controller

I have set it so that the right joystick looks left and right, it works really well  But only if you're using the shoulder buttons as the throttle/brake, because otherwise unless you turn the stick perfectly straight you end up messing with the throttle or brake
The next track is Laguna Seca.
I have spoken  [/pauljego]
I've done a 1:40 but need to tweak the setup. Haven't got any more time tonight but I reckon if you get the car turning in nicely mid-high 1:30's will be possible.

I take it you approve then
I considered one of the Cape Ring tracks, I like the Inside one but was lapping under a minute so thought it was too short

I'm quite done with Grand Valley for now
3 lap practice race is going on at the moment.
Just noticed the big sign above the start/finish line that says "Mazda Raceway", so it's well suited then

Cheers Chris, it's definitely one that will take a bit of practice but can be fun to drive if you know your way around I've done a bit on it but still mess up a couple of corners sometimes But I think that's partially down to the car needing playing with tbh.

TBH, i have thought about this, but people cant even handle the one we have never mind giving them more power..
the race will still take the same amount of 'time' to complete so its not really an issue tbh, not in my eyes anyway.
the faster the car the better the drivers need to be.

I'm with Chris, people are still getting used to the N/A MX5 so it's too soon to go bolting chargers to them imo.
Too right Rob Should be interesting
Just remembered, Top gear is starting again this week so presumably we will be having the race afterwards as originally planned?

hopefulyl because the corkscrew is in the last section of the lap the pack will be split up enough to give space. lol

Yeah its about a minute into it so should have split by then, could you image it being the first corner, carnage. Need to change my car setup on this one though, seems to be massively understeering, couldnt even get round the second corner following everyone else's line
