Here is my best time. A 57. 14. Absolute rubbish. I compared Cheeveer's repay to mine, and he just seems to have so much more revs coming from that Weslake. If you look at my rev counter, you'll see that the revs fall dramatically as soon as i press the throttle pedal. Hmm, this is a strange problem. Perhaps it has something to do with CP not being a track in the 66 mod, because I can get plenty of wheelspin and so on at Monza 10k in the Cooper.

Well, here you go. I hope to do better in the next round :tongue:

Feel free to send in more lap times, even though we're past the deadline.

Just noticed that this thread involves CPAL. As it so happens, I just did some pre-race praccy there for our upcoming ADC week using the GP66er's. No replay saved so you'll have to take my word for it.

That's about all I can squeeze out of it.
