    The problem with this is the fact that there is a cheat disc available, i done the ring in the Stratos in 6.23 seconds, the car had no mods whatsoever, and there is no way of telling that i cheated by looking at the screen, so you guys will have to be extremely honest ;)

    Yeah, you're right. I guess I'm too honest and trusting myself.

    I'm gonna put another stipulation on winning the prize - that you be a subscribed member of FC. Non subscribed members are welcome to play along, but you can't win the prize (trust me whan I say that the prize will be worth almost nothing, but still kinda cool and better than a kick in the ass.)

    Use the gas more, brake less. Isn't it that simple?

    I will see what I can pull this weekend. I haven't had a chance to get the stratos in my garage yet.

    I think you're onto something. I also need to mix in a little more countersteering and do it a little earlier, I think

    Andrew is right, this car is quirky as hell, but that makes it alot more fun. :)
