F1 race was tough, once you lost the slipstream I had no chance. Got up to 6th once doing it properly but then no getting closer. I was running low drag, higher top speed, race softs.

Ended up getting it on hard mode by wall riding turn 2 every time. Even then I only made it on the last lap by half a second

Ouch!

Had my first sub30s run yesterday night.

Yippie-ki-yay m ..... f .....

And ! ... a question to everyone who wall-rides T2 : Is that really quicker ?

I think you can gain around .7s a lap, give or take a tenth

@Famine I have to ask: How on earth are you getting those screens without the cursor on any of the races? Been driving me nuts trying to do that myself.

Basically... I'm a big, fat cheat.

It's a composite image. That's why the tiles are all the same size too

Ok, that's actually clever. It's already what I do with my Weekly Challenges Guide Thumbnails so just need to cheat more for the screen in the video itself

Exit speed is about 10mph faster than the ai cars, and it doesn't wear your front right tire, so works well
