I find I can't completely drive 100% on that track. It NEEEDS to be a lap where I'm careful on some of the sections, and very slow. And on other sections where I'm just flooring it, I usually end up doing something stupid. I did the Nissan GT-R challenge and managed a 7:28:2xx and I know I can get at least half a second faster, but I can't replicate that time again. Sometimes I go too fast and run off the road, and usually I'm too slow and end up getting a 7:31.

Just do tons of laps and you'll be able to do a complete lap without going off even once =) This circuit is all I'm playing on in gt5 these days.
That's pretty much me nowadays too. I've been trying to get a better time with the GT-R, but I'm discovering it's not as good a car as we've been lead to believe. That 7:27 time is a conspiracy! :p

So I ran the Zonda R and managed a 6:30.5xx. I did an awesome run before that and got a 6:29.6xx, but that one wasn't clean since at the last moment coming up to the pits, I lost control and the front wheel went over one of the grass patches. I hate it when you blow a lap at the very last second.

What are you driving options btw? I'm running hard sports tires with traction control turned up to 5. I tried it with 3 and managed a 6:31. It's impossible to keep the car straight with a controller... you just can't modulate the throttle properly.

Because it's a Supra.

BTW, I just saw another one in the used car lot and purchased it. If you want it, let me know. (Of course you want it... I'll send it your way)

Add me (PSN Bilaltq)

Suggest some cars for the expert series plz
If you want to learn how to drive and tune, I'd suggest something like the Integra or a Civic. You'll learn how much power a car can handle before cornering and power can no longer be balanced. After you've mastered a few real world circuits, then I'd suggest moving onto bigger things with rear wheel drive.

Or, you could just do like I did and start out with a Miata or an MX5. They're not as simple to tune though.

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
