    Try it, all you have to do is bump a wall while you're in 4th and it'll break the tires loose, then you just hold the throttle down and drive.

    another thing that will aid laptimes is if in your garage you go to optiomns and turn arcade mode tire wear off, means fresh tires all day long

    I'm pretty sure that you keep fresh tires no matter what in Time trial because i have tire wear on and doen't notice any loss of traction over any number of laps... but whatever.

    Yes, there is no tire wear in time trials.

    i don't mind the course but the car is definitely the worst car in the game... chronic understeer turning into power oversteer, or even 4 wheel drift resulting in a hopeless driving experience... a rocket powered roller skate would be a beter handler than this car...

    and since i purchased a Logitech Driving Force Pro wheel yesterday, i have struggled even more, coz all real life conventions that you would normally apply with driving, like controlling a drift, just go out the window,. the wheel goes light and then loads up and then goes light again and then when you think you have caught it, it loads up again and ploughs you into a wall when trying to control a little slide, even feathering the throttle, and it just spins... i admit that this probably isn't the best car to be using to learn how to use the steering wheel but still i am having a sulk...

    anywayz enough of my whingeing... BIG KUDOS to whoever wins this coz i know i won't my best time was a 1'3x.xxx... and it was only just under 1'40 so yeah...not gunna post the whole time coz then people might have a sook at me...

    If you want to hide your time just do this: Scroll to the right of this sentence. 1:15.962

    Just format the text as white in color. And that time is made up.

    Your time is probably the same as mine.
