Glad you've grown up.
i know this about the ring.
thats not denying what ive wrote will aid a faster lap if applied. even u should see that if your not just going off on a rant at me.
it just depends how committed u want to bbe and how much trust u have about not binning it. which i appreciate is a huge factor at the ring.
No doubt it would help, however real world and dream world and two total different things!
Maybe you can find Hamilton on a forum somewhere and tell him the mistakes he has made in the real world, i'm sure he'll apreciate it too!
I think it would be for the best that you go and edit the first post to simply say 'great lap mate, jealous i've never been'.

Talking the talk is one thing VXR. Walking the walk is another. To me.......JR looks like he is walking pretty well.

tbh, im not even going to lower to a reply to the bandwagon jumpers.
As long as James has read it as non insultive to his driving, and as hopefully some constructive comments for next time, thats all that matters. I've not actually insulted anything, but bitches will be bitches....

Steves lap is so good for his 2nd lap, he totally got it straight away.
His training on Forza worked well.

Thats what i found, then i hit the barrier
Mates dad nearly hit the barrier yesterday morning in the tuscan about 4 corners in (the longer sweeping right after the grand stand), was doing like 3000 revs in 3rd, TOUCHED the throttle and around it went. Was about 3 foot from the arse end hitting the barrier

Was with my friend in his mapped Mk4 Astra Gsi, and we got caught by a Volvo XC90 D5 With for people in it, chased him for abit but only over took him on the straight (easy peasy). Was Abit damp though at 9am yesterday.
JR is pushing the car hard tbh.

when timing your lap round the ring at what point do you start and stop the timer? oviously for people that have been know you cant actually do a flying lap because of the barrier entry/exit system.
also great lap jr!
