Yes! Much paint was sprayed on the track at Brunchen on the saturday night.

Photo's will be posted


No! Apart from knowing left or right, absolutely no use what so ever. That was half the reason I cooked my brakes on my first lap, the corners seem to be on you much more quickly than in the game. The cambers and gradients are something that the game simply can't replicate. I suppose knowing what way the next corner goes is a small help, but I found myself forgetting lots as it's fookin hairy on your first laps out there

I had a quick go on GT5 last night and felt a myself applying the brakes more and trying to get round the corners a lot smoother

I created a scooby before we left for Germany as close to mine as possible, then tried to drive it smoothly and not go off roading at all.

I managed around 8.00 minutes keeping it sensible!

In the real world, I would be driving the wheels off of mine to do 8.00 minutes and in all honesty would be lucky not to be eating armco!
