damn, I wish I still had PS2, sold it recently, but GT3 provided literally at least 100 hours of gameplay (lol I also have too much time on my hands).

Sat down for a couple of hours and got a 5:12:.915. I curb hopped a bit in the square corners, but I think I kept my inside tire on the curb. I don't think I changed the oil, but I don't know for sure.

Not bad Otter... looks like I've got a little work to do. I know that I *ALWAYS* lose time in the keyhole circles section about 30 seconds after the 90 degree corners. I always burn in too fast and drift to the outside edge, have to hit the brakes to stay on the pavement... but by then my momentum is gone and I've lost the drive to get out of the corners fast... ^__^

The only way I make good time in the keyholes is to memorize the tach setting in each corner, accelerate to that speed, and don't go faster until the corner is transitioning. Works for me, but it is a bit boring.

I think I have a couple seconds to improve if I get every corner like my best legit split time, but perfect 5+ minute laps are tough to come by.

Are yall using sticks or wheels?
