Lift!!!! Also, blip the throttle when changing down, else the rears will lock.

(and I've done 1 lap in an MRT here, so it will definitely be an interesting learning curve)

This is just slightly off topic, but would a xbox 360 controller work better for me, a few people use them for lfs and have no problems, would this be the way to go if i get a reply soon, i'll pop out and get one. i have an lfs setup guide for one, so just wondering if anyone has had any experience.

hmm i reckon it would be with the triggers. ive heard of afew people using them too and i think most said they were better than PS2 - although sounds like your main issue with that is setup.

apparently it's alot better for tin tops but open wheelers it's a bit twitchy, worth a try i suppose, will get one and try it out if not, it can go back. :D

Hey man, not sure which type of ps2 controller you have but this http://tinyurl.com/y79jadk logitech gamepad is what I used for about a year and it was orsome for me. Usb and 4 more buttons on the front and around $20 now. I still have to use it for rally or drifting...hope that helps ya.....and good luck tonight.

pretty fun round again, cheers to all who raced and welcome to new racer (NZL)Eddie!

Points spread is pretty even, pretty close between top 2! Final endurance round next week, double points up for grabs too... 24 points for 1st place, this can still be won by the top 3.


Final round Thursday 22nd Apr - Aston Club (AS1)
