    Since I don't have an xbox, I had to stop by my friend's, who decided to troll me by filming me playing. Luckily it was after I had mostly given up.

      Best clean time was a 1:47.877. I started getting pissed and lost my concentration after I realized if you drop a wheel off in 13 or 14 it invalidated the next lap, which ruined a bunch of low 47s. I doubt I would have caught a mid 46 though Elva, you're quick as hell.
      I didn't think Laguna Seca had that many corners, but it's probably just differences in interpretation of "corners" from person to person. The most annoying one I found was the right-hand part of the corkscrew. You leave the track at ALL and it's all over. That cost me two consecutive near-or sub-47 laps because of it invalidating the following lap as well. I've found that you can keep that from happening only if your off is a certain distance from the end of the lap. Probably to avoid a better run to the straight.

      Thanks for the compliment!

      Also, I wish they had an option to swap the MTII for an MTI...

            Shit, you guys are good, here's my lowly attempt - 1:52:530


            The dtm spec idea sounds fun, but i'd much prefer an LFA on the fujimi kaido

              You're way too crazy at this game. I still gotta mess with the tire pressures a bit and see how it goes

                    I'm on a controller. did a few more laps last night, started running consistent low 1:47s, fastest being a 1:47.28x or something like that. Trying to improve on that and I was consistently fubar-ing or dropping a wheel off at one of 3 corners. Never the same one lap to lap, but couldn't keep it together for a full clean lap.. lol, might have been the beer. I have a 1:46 something in me. Just gotta keep focused long enough to SQUIRREL!!!!!


                    If you go off track anywhere in the last sector, it will make your next lap invalid. On Laguna, the last timing line is shortly after the right hander on the corkscrew. Watch for when the sector time pops up and make sure you stay on track after that.

                          I'm using a wheel.... Obviously not as well as y'all are using controllers though!

                              This was my best after about 9 laps. Might give it another try, though.

                                I believe the crown is for the premium edition or whatever it's called.
