Knew you would do much faster when i realized i could drive that fast after a couple of laps ^^ i did it in practise.. what's the difference between online and practise mode? i've heard it would be slower online but on tsukuba i drove faster online so i don't really understand..

Wow. That's fast, Sumo. I did ten laps online in several cars the other day. I'm still learning the track. My best times were as follows:
Mitsubishi 3000GT SR (J) '98 - 1'45.4xx
* Tire wear was an issue
* Lap times began increasing after about the 5th or 6th lap
Supra - 1'46.016
* could improve a bit
* lap times were still decreasing after ten laps
* 14 laps in Supra gave same tire wear level as 9 laps in 3000GT
Not sure if I'll switch from the supra yet. I'm going to run a full 18 laps each car to compare the total time. I think the 3000GT will be faster for me though.

I considered using a GTO, but then I remembered the things are heavy. That combined with 4WD means they eat tires. So I just took a look through my garage, saw the R32 GTS-t and decided to give that a go. Turns out it's brilliant! At least for me it is. Someone else said it was a bit of a handful.

Today I was with the rest of the group in a practice lounge using my FTO, originally I thought my car wasn't going to suit the track but it actually appears that I can get an edge on the straights. It looks like I won't be swapping to an MR2 after all!
I set a best time of 1:45.843 after three clean laps, I'm relatively happy but I know I can improve greatly!
Just as a note from an organiser's point of view, I hope you can understand that I don't really want everyone to flock to the R32 and GTO; they may be fast but all the cars have been tested enough for me to know that there are better choices! Plus don't you think it would be boring for you to see only two varieties of car and for us to have tested 20+?

Nissan 240SX '96 = 240SX (S14) '96

Dang. I knew it was too good too be true. The 240SX (S14) was too fast.

To be honest I didn't expect the R32 to be as fast as it is. I joined this series to see a bit of variety, hence why I went the R32 when no-one else had chosen it, and I'm sure most of the cars can put up similar times. In fact I'll go run something else for a bit and post the times I get. Also I know SSR5 very well (it's my primary test track). I don't expect to do as well at Cote de Azur.
