2 nights in the desert with the Merc and into the top 100 with a 1:33.420. Optimum is a 1:33.297 so there's still a little over a tenth to be gained, most of which comes from T1 and T2 which were slow on my best lap (because of course they were). Also probably some time to gain in the final corner, but it is difficult to really nail this corner on controller. I'm finding it difficult to keep the car sliding for more than half a second which is losing me time through the rest of the corner and resulting in a poor exit which then also costs me time down the main straight.
While the Merc is cool to slide around, I was hoping the engine note would be a little more interesting than it is, and the open diff is quite irritating on the slower corners where it tries to light up one tyre.
Now I wait for all the aliens here to set their final laps to see how much they beat me by![Bow Down :bowdown: :bowdown:](/wp-content/themes/gtp16/images/smilies/bowdown.svg)
