Yes they do. If I remember right, I'm pretty sure I cracked the top 5 last season with a penalty for running all four tires off the track every lap after the tunnel. You should do great here. Just remember that down force is your best friend here.

Running that section after the tunnel is not hard at all, it just involves brake checking the living christ out of anyone behind you and hoping you don't get tanked. XD True story.

Oh yeah the section isn't tough, I just wasn't paying attention last season and this season my car doesn't want to hold the inside. I gotta slow down way too much.

Pretty sure i hit sublime there twice last season

Brake check someone? doesnt sound quite right, not a clean move. And imho the left right combo that leads up the hill to the essess to me is the most dangerous portion of the track. that turn in to me is hard to hit, that and i find its very easy to wash out and hit the wall on the outside. theres only one line there so two wide there is a big big no-no. last season i got nailed at the bottom of the downhill straight bc i was turning better than a gt car and he broke lose and smacked me. I guess that kind of mistake or accident is less likely now because i think i have been making better decisions faster. it will be good though for sure.

Yeah... you could just go uber slow throigh the end of the tunner and hold up traffic, but that's not how I roll. Only other option: go out of bounds, or eat wall.

That post tunnel turn is one of the most misleading turns in FM.

would anyone be mad if they knew Im running 38's around the alps?

would anyone be mad if i said i was running 37's around the alps? and there's lots of spots to pass but they all require super technical moves for the most part at least.

Would anyone be mad if I said I was running 36s around Alps?

I would. That would mean I'm 10 whole seconds off of forecasted poll. X.x

just hit a 1:34.998

In what, a GT1 car?

nope, f50

If you actually did that, in your series F50, then I would start crying.

723*

I stand corrected lol.

34s you got nothing on me I hit like 28s in my car. Nah sadly I hit like 39s but can do consecutive 40s. Keep in my mind though my car was for speed and can't turn but 39 isn't that bad right?

Faster than me i need more pi bad...

I won't divulge numbers, but I've also hit some pretty fast times here. But a 34? Sainted says he did too, but I'll have to see it to believe it.

i was totally joking bud xD but i was actually saying saw raceboy hit it.. which i didnt but i wanted to mess with you guys lol

-edit: I think the confusion was an antecedent problem involving "he." I meant: "Sainted saw Raceboy."

-2nd edit: Is the kitty having playtime with my brain?

Last season I was running 45s in the vette. If I can get anywhere close to that I'll be happy. I don't see much faster than 47s for me this season. Maybe mid 46 on a good lap. This caddy just isn't as good in the corners as that vette. That's what this track is all about, being able to hold these high speed corners.

I'm comfortably hitting 37 6's I dont think speed will be as important as race managment. LSA are we teaming up?[img][/img]
