I just got the game a couple of days ago -- I didn't realize that Arcade is a complete game! I seriously thought arcade was for playing against friends, and Sim was the real game. Am I just confused or stupid?

Spanky. there are ways to go outside the walls and do over a million mph, so don't get cocky...lol.

S2R... Well, I've said it before and I'll say it again....you da' man! How do I know this? Let me tell ya'...

I decided that your time on Laguna was impossible, but I needed proof , so what did I do? I spent the last 3 hours on that course. I took the fastest, best handling car on the game (F094/S) and tweaked it here and there for the track, the numbers are as follows...

1:00.880
1:00.893
1:01.107
1:01.262
1:01.291

And so fourth. This track does not like to do under 1:01, I can tell you that. I was so into it and using my ghost for better times that all but the best two times are with 811HP instead of the normal 826. Anyway, I suppose the 1:00.592 you posted is possible , but I wouldn't say a consistent achievable time. What was your second best time if I might ask? Anyway, kudos again...for the last time...I'm NEVER going back to that damn track!!!

None of my times are consistent. Lots of crazy driving to get times that low. Running off of the track and slamming into walls was a frequent occurence.

You're best time is 1:00.880, which is very close to my time. I'm certain you can drive it under a minute. Come on it's only 8 tenths of a second.

I'm glad you're so certain I can do it...lol, problem is that I'm not. I really tried as hard as I could, I just think your line is better than mine. I got 15 1:01's, so my times are very close, it's the line I'm choosing. There are tracks you can muscle parts of, like the first corner in Tokyo 246, but at Laguna? If you hit anything you are no where near that time, tell me which wall to hit and I'll hit it ...lol. I am not to assume that this was your first run....am I? Jesus dude, that rocks.

Hey S2R, check out my "Mojo" thread again, I updated the info with some bits for you as well. It seems now that I was doing myself a disservice by changing the FDR from the stock 4.062 to 4.752 when I was trying to beat your larger than life time, guess it's back to Laguna...

Man you are obsessed with Laguna Seca. I hope you beat my time so you can finally get some rest. In fact, please try to break the 1 minute barrier. I believe it can be done.

Actually, my favorite track is Cote d'Azur. What's your best time on that course?
