I'll keep that in mind, and thanks for taking the time to watch the replay I realy appreciate it.

Though I have found part of the problem and fixed it, I asked one of the guys doing 1.14's for this setup and after some minor changes (more rear wing, during fast corners its hard to apply a precise amount of opposite lock when your stick travel is about 1cm) I knocked 2 seconds clean off my regular time. I think I can get another few fractions off from further tweaking and the rest is as you say... practice.

I think what realy helped was the sharper turn in, as I said I reduced the oversteer at high speed with more wing but I realy love the turn in you get with this new setup, and all it asks is that I feather the throttle a bit more, though once you get up to speed that rear wing comes into play again. It also rides the kerbs a lot better, which means the first chicane is a lot easier.

Anyway, gonna have to get back to my driving.

I dunno if a replay file just needs the one file to work but heres one... if I need to post something else for it to work do tell me.

The first lap I tried a couple of new lines through the chicane and around the pit entry. Second lap was a very good lap by my standard so thats the one that realy needs improving on, third was slightly bellow average, few mistakes.

Ive been driving on the demo servers and Ive hit a bit of a wall. I used to do drifting in the turbo demo car but now thats not avaliable anymore Ive turned to the FBM. The thing is Ive hit a wall in my laptimes, on the Blackwood normal circuit I am mostly in the 1:20's and Ive only once done a sub 1:20 (1:19:73 to be exact) but I notice theres quite a few drivers doing 1:14's. Hasnt stopped me doing alright in races (quite a few high finishes and a win just because I didnt crash or spin once) but its getting frustrating relying on other ppls mistakes to get me up the pack.

Im using a joypad so steering isnt that precise and throttle and brake are either on or off (plus it pulls left all the time coz I cant figure out how to give the controller a deadzone).

Im thinking its a mixture of setup and driving thats holding me back Im just hoping someone had a similar experience and figured out what they were doing wrong. The gap is over 5 seconds to the good racers I just wanna bring that down a bit, any advice at all would help.
