    Would like too, but I'm so far off the pace I'd need to invent a time machine just to keep up...
    I tried today, I had an off and got slammed with a 1 minute penalty....
    2nd zone I was closeish and sorta found my zone a bit, but lost it soon after...
    Maybe. I like the NZ zone as a whole.

    Maybe just back off a bit and go for consistency rather that outright pace. It's great fun once you finally gel with the car

    I generally stick to the pace notes and I don't go full tilt. I don't think I've ever had the go pedal flat out once...

    I haven't tested the theory, but I suspect having a load cell brake helps a lot in this game as allows very fine control of the brake pedal to help with weight transfer. I find that I'm overlaying the brake and throttle a lot to stabilise the car

    Much more imersive. I also set my wheel rotation to 540 degrees for faster steering

    I was just looking at the results and wondered where your last stage time was.
    @UrsineSaturn9 @Bounty05 @George and myself nice and close on times after 6 stages

    That is weird. I will include it manually.
    Does it show up on in the in-game result? If it does can you screen shot it and post, thanks.

    Hey just checked it doesn’t show up that I completed it, maybe I quit out of the game too early, instead of continuing to the next screen, it was late so I think I just turned it off and went to bed.

    That's aIa shame. If there's consensus from others I am happy to include it manually at +59s overall.

    Yay! I'm at the top of the leaderboard again! Chose the Lancia and gotta say I didn't gel that well with the car. Felt really floaty and not really in control a lot of the time. Had to wrestle with the wheel a bit to get it to turn and point in the direction that I wanted. Put the brake bias back 2 clicks to try and get a bit more rotation, but didn't really know what else to touch so left it as is

    Very tight spread on quite a few stages nice work all. :thumbsup:
    Couple of nice event tussles: For 4th between @Kieran_B33 and @Hatfield, for 7th between @Bounty05 and @Anthonyb - few other potentials there bad luck on taking a dive.

    I followed @UrsineSaturn9 all the way this time, but was always a couple seconds off.
    moments that didn't help were 2 rollovers, and 2 spins (luckily always got going again without a reset)
    one of the spins was heading backwards into that tight corner with rope either side and drop offs and taking the hairpin in reverse lol
    the other non-helpful was having the headset off and not realising the stage had started, but luckily only lost 2 secs there.
    well done ursine I was 40s down by finish of s6
