Yeah the carousel is hilarious in this car.
Also despite it feeling slippery, notice the cornering g's are up over 1.0 occasionally, probably more than any Cobra saw back in the day.

Naa you can't buy that one, have to win it.
And the 3-speed doesn't work so well in GT4.  In real life it had a torque converter which kept the engine from lugging.

1:45:410...  with one grassy trip.
Here in Yurop we have those engineer guys designing cars and racetracks... have you heard about that? :), maybe it's just that this thing is a glorified and overpowered dune buggy so it likes to be off-road as much as possible :D

Damn fast! Im gonna have to step on the gas pedal a bit more I think. Cant wait to give it another whirl after work. I like driving on these stock tires, it feels a lot more like these cars should. Bring on the 60's cars!

Yeah. I do my first lap of each set nice & slow. Then, I try to smoke my ghost. I did it alittle too well, even with stock settings. I'm still 1/2 second off that time, but maybe with tuning I can finally catch it.

I dunno. I haven't looked beyond making sure driver's aids were off. I'll check in a bit.

Bleh, was on wrong tires... switched language to English in game to make sure about that and now I'm as crappy as always and my thumb hurts like hell.

1:50.901 is my current best with proper N3 tires.
