Hats off to you Marine, brilliant lap

Marine Iguana · 25 Nov 2009 at 20:35

I might have a bit more to squeeze out of that time if i can get it just perfect but i will imagine NIKAZ will post a faster time he does that quite often.

NIKAZ · 25 Nov 2009 at 20:37

4 bloody hundredths out
Excellent time my friend

Lol too close for comfort and i know how hard that time is to get.

Struggling too much on turn 3 and 4, especially the bump on turn 4.
Nikaz would you mind putting the video of your lap.At the moment i can't see myself going into 2:04s.

By the way great lap times Marine and Nikaz.

Just having my first go tonight - won't have a good go at it until the weekend, I think you two will be out of sight by then.

I have a G25 coming for christmas, I've not played driving games at all until this one and I'm now hooked, Great fun!

You will love it. Makes the driving experiance so much more fun and realistic

I'm thinking of gettin a wheel...would the G25 be well worth the money? I mean I wont play Shift that much other than these trials we're doing...anyone recommend any others?

Marine Iguana · 25 Nov 2009 at 23:25

G25 is a brilliant piece of kit for the money. Well recommended.

I'll end up getting one for Gran Turismo 5 as i am obsessed with the GT series since the 1st one on the PS1.

Yeah i used to love the gran turismo series on ps1 and 2. Was even considering buying a ps3 just to play gt5..

And yeah the g25 is worth every penny.

Only done 20 laps or so but I think I'm unlikely to trouble the leaders this week..

Seem to have lost my touch with the car a bit it's all over the shop stupid Xbox controller :mad:

inam22 · 27 Nov 2009 at 18:29

Slight improved time, but i am not sure if the snapshot is acceptable to you guys it seems i have missed the car completely in the picture.

No probs. I'm happy to accept the snapshot.
As you have to use a camera we can't expect perfection every time & added to that I trust you as I'm sure the others do. But I suppose Pete has the final say on what's acceptable. I'm sure he'll find it acceptable if we all do.

Snaggle · 27 Nov 2009 at 19:24

Nope hax .. Redo it please!!

I'm finding it the same. With this combo you don't seem to be able to get quick lap times straight off. I seem to be hitting 2.06's improving to 2.05's after about three go's (9 laps or so) then start getting late 2.04's after that. Just finished my current session ending on 2.03.610 & that seemed a lot faster than my 2.03.550. I did out brake myself slightly on the right hander after the 2nd sector time though, maybe a couple of tenths lost but no more.
