Who's given this a go?

I am currently fastest in NZ using a standard controller with a 1 37.805 in the tuned car. 10th overall.

Will give the standard car a go tonight as well to get an overall rank.

Had a few laps last night. Drives really well so looking forward to the full game. Only on about a 1:42 in the tuned car. Will have a better go tomorrow when the wife is at work and the baby is sleeping.

downloaded last night so will have a crack tonight. although xmas party before means times may be a little wayward ;)

Snagged a 1:40 in the tuned 370Z with hand controller. Now to try with wheel to see if I can improve....

Did a few laps myself last night, got the tuned car to low 140's but will try some more over the next few days and see what time i can punch out

I am really struggling with this download. I can't get stable enough throttle control so the car (both of them, but standard car is worst) has constant snap-out oversteer when I feed in the power. I am hideously and laughably slow as a consequence.... :( I don't know how you guys do it!

[malscar]

three quick laps to get a 1.47. To me the steering is not progressive enough and turn in response at low speeds is not good. Maybe I need a wheel.

I think the main problem for people is that it forces you to use professional driving physics and most people have only used the standard physics.

Lowered my time to 1'37.121 in the tuned car, and 1'49.969 in the normal car, to be 6th overall in New Zealand. Will give it a go later on, reckon I can top both of those.

if your having trouble with throttle control, change the Driving Options settings. decrease traction control to enable better control...i've found that anyway....

Yeah, tried that already - I think I need to modulate my throttle control even more, but as I drive using the analogue buttons rather than the analogue sticks, it isn't always the easiest thing to do! Thanks for your suggestion though. :)
