Steward's Comments:
Tying in with the Olympics in London this week, and finally back to an arcade mode combo in a road car, albeit a tuner. PLEASE, don't allow the paper look of this combo to scare you off. It's loads of fun, and very approachable.
Viewing your T1 & T2 Lap Time Splits:
- You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay'
- To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
- While Viewing Your Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times
- To post your T1 and T2 Splits, simply post the sector times that are shown in the live timing monitor.
- The WRS Fetchbot has been updated and will now add your splits together!

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
- At least two tires in contact with track at all times.
- In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
- If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
- Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
- No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
- If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty
- No hybrids
- No cheating of any kind,these are relaxed races and we are experienced racers, we know what times can be done,and we can read your mind.We will know.
- Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules
- Save your best lap/ghost replay

Good luck,

It was fun for the first few hours, in bright sunshine...... then, as the sun began to set, the rain began to fall... 
The last 4 hours have been nothing short of arduous, even hellish at some points. Flying down Mulsanne with headlights glaring off the spray of the car in front, carrying a speed deficit due to engine limiting, trying desperately to stay in the slip-stream and not miss my braking points.... 
Its quite mentally exhausting and I'm only doing 1.5 hour stints twice a week. How the hell they manage at the real LM I'll never know.
