Congrats Phil!

I'll be downloading the replay when GPLRank is back up, sitting down with a cup of tea and watching and learning  :thumbup:

...But is it a valid WR lap?  ;)    (That is, no offs, two wheels on track all time, no guardrail bumps/wallrides, etc...)


Btw, has *anyone* managed to do a completely clean lap there yet, I wonder?

Hi fellas,

Yes the lap is clean -- I wouldn't have submitted it otherwise ;)

I did a faster lap (33:19), but that time I clipped a bollard and scraped a wall. Allowing yourself a few misdeeds is a big advantage, because clean laps require insane caution. You can't just hold back in 4 or 5 blackspots and attack the rest -- it's a constant struggle to concentrate and remember what's next. Take a smidge of extra care in ~700 corners, and you're left with another 20 seconds on the clock.

PS. Dark, what's your tea of choice?  :D

I did a 38:58 clean (no-resets) with the Lola T70 ^^

It's only my 3rd run...

And since I don't have my G27 yet, it's with an Xbox 360 controller XD

I watched Phil's lap and thought that I had somehow got to 'Fast Speed Replay'  :confused:

Ah well, back to 'Sunday drive speed', bounding off walls and Shift+R-ing from down the mountain side.....

Congrats Phil  :hat-tip:  :hat-tip:  :hat-tip:
