Where are you guys at on practice on Infineon? I'm sitting at 1:34 in FWD right now, using an n/a car.

I tried driving the GT40 around, got frustrated and quit.

Yeah, the blind corners and elevation changes are highly annoying in a high HP RWD car, to say the least.
I got down to 1:25 in an AWD car, though, and i've got some room to go. I think i'll be able to pull a 1:20 in AWD, about the same in RWD, and probably a 1:28 or 1:29 in FWD.

Talk some smack!!!
I'm going to put in a couple hours tomorrow again, we'll see where we stand.
So far the St205 celica seems faster than the Tommy Kaira ZZ-II on this track. Easier to throw into drifts around some of the elevation change curves vs. the ZZ-II that just wants to understeer like a pig off into the grass. ST205 seems a better momentum car.

I let the computer do a "ghost run" for me initially and then I go out and crush the ghost.
GHOST RUNS:
MF VW GTi 1:31.xxx
MR Ford GT40 1:26.xxx
M4 Tommy Kaira ZZII 1:24.xxx
I haven't run my cars except for the GT40.

I hate the ghost... it scares the crap out of me when it passes me by going THROUGH me. WTF is up with THAT?!?!
I have a feeling that i'm going to clean up this week.

Keep feeling yourself and you will need to clean something.
I never let the ghost get past me.

I'm going to take down your ZZ-II with a Celica. And that's going to hurt deep inside i bet.

My RWD car is the LAST car you will expect to see.
