oh for #@% sakes. this times issue is getting ridiculous.
i couldnt take it anymore, and played gp3 yesterday, and got 1:24.9. very scrappy lap though (my braking points arent definite, etc, etc). but the thing i noticed is how u can take shortcuts. especially on that chicane. i'm pretty sure i got 1:23.1 by TOTALLY cutting that chicane, so i think we should add a rule.
i think the added rule should be that AT LEAST TWO tyres need to be on the road at ALL times. otherwise...................SCREW YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also, there are some cheats around that make the game 'slower' (u can see it visibly, and if u look at the seconds counting, u DEFINITELY know that somethings up. i havnt played the game in a while, so i'm sure there are other cheats around.
i think melbourne was a cheat/lying free experience, but now it seems ppl with no skill whatsoever find themselves getting fastest laptimes, and they get some pathetic pleasure in thinking they're the greatest, when the damn nerds cant even judge whether they're in 5th gear in a hairpin or driving backwards over the finish line.
