One question.....but Ring, Città di Aria, Costa di Amalfi and Cote D'Azure are playable only in time attack mode of the Arcade?
No race event on that beautifull tracks?

No, you can only race these in 2player mode.

I got a 7.02, too bad i didn't break the 7minute mark. I just can't open the throttle up on one or two bumpy sections of the track because the bike is all over the place, i need to slow right down to get pass safely.

Also improved my CBR600 time.

These are insane times! I'm no where near those times yet! Good for you man!

You can find an onboard video here : http://www.metzelermoto.com/metzeler_world/nurburgring/index.htm
You will be riding with the guy who owns the lap record, he provides comments about the track as well, very interesting. Look at the speedo and remember that they were holding back because of the traffic.
I love the moment when he says that he crashed here because his rear wheel collapsed

in the real video he is on my bike... the almighty R1! I really must make it over there before I die... If I can hit an indicated 186 on roads here in FL, I think I would be quite bored on the straight at the ring..

you wouldnt be able to open it up down the straight, your lap ends half way down it. watched the footage of the racer going round and he says you cant go full speed all the way down the straight.
