>Who _can't_ do an uncountable number of cartwheels at the P-Ring? :) The best challenge is to find the "sweet spot". I have a replay of me doing a 60-lap race where I found the right line, and from lap 7 to the finish I was able to put down my wheel. I've never before won a GPL race whilst eating my dinner :-) -- Cheers! Graeme Nash

At least three barrel rolls then forty-one nose over tail flips. I have been watching some of these and i do believe this may be tops, feel free to correct me though... Oh, the replays at alt.binaries.simulators.autos should anyone be inclined to watch.

That's pretty interesting. Your saying you didn't steer or even touch the wheel for 53 laps? What car? What's your PB? [email hidden] (Graeme Nash) wrote in <[email hidden]>:

Yep, put my wheel to one side on lap 7 and just kept my foot down :-) I was driving the Ferrari and my best lap in the race was 10.78s. I was amazed as previously I couldn't make 2 laps without a spin! -- Cheers! Graeme Nash

My pb is 0:09.05 and I had to steer lots as the car was in a constant weave. I'm surprised you could have your foot on the floor and only go that speed. You must have been pegged at redline with damage off and speed limited by to low a gear. [email hidden] (Graeme Nash) wrote in <LhJ2sAAjYZO5Ew$[email hidden]>:
