    I'm James C on it, I end up doing 3/4 of the lap perfect everytime and get a bump or a slow turn at the end, only a second and a half from no.1. At no. 11 :( But by 28th feb i will have it i promise you that.

    EDIT: no.6 now :)

    Not really i've put in rediculous hours on it now, i'd just suggest trying every car, you'll get better overall handling and you'll understand how the corners work better, as well as seeing how to cut time off each part of the course. I turn at the very last second, and try and get as straight a line towards the next part of the course to build up speed and cut that time! It also says one entry per user in the T&C, so if I get top score I'm going to submit under my brother's name on a different email address just incase they try to userp me. :D

    Instead of making sharp turns tap your left or right button slowly to make the turn and you maintain speed when you go again. That's made a second difference or so for me. A tip: Don't play when your drunk, this has failed for me. And.. nothing else. Good luck
