First Timed Circuit: ES6 - Monaco-Turini

This small circuit's coordinates are: J0-J9 / L3-L2 / C2-C1 x3 ( =3 tours)

This doesn't help much in visualizing it if you don't have the game and the game boards; I am also not able to provide the image of the circuit (I guess I could photograph my own boards with the spiffy little car in mid-journey. I will work on that for next time).

I originally planned to do only one lap and not the three stated. The first lap ended and left my MRC (mini rally car) in an interesting position on the track so I decided to finish that lap and compare the two lap times.

The same thing happened after the second lap ended and I actually finished up the three full laps.

I have to allow (and hope you do too, especially if any of you are at any level Rallyman players) for missed rules, not following the rules I did use to the letter and any other mistakes made by omission or addition for the lap times I recorded.

Lap One: 5 minutes 37 seconds
Lap Two: 5 minutes 25 seconds
Lap Three: 5 minutes 16 seconds

I pushed a lot of Time Attack the first lap and kept to sliding through most if not all of the turns. I did less Time Attack on the next lap but kept sliding through the turns for the most past. On the last lap I did absolutely no Time Attack and spent only half the time sliding though turns.

I had a crack-up on two of the laps and a blown tire trying to go through a shortcut on the other.

All in all, it's amazing how the lap times got faster as the MRC kept/gained momentum and speed while I learned the course. I thought I could get a handle on it all well enough to dial-in the last lap at least, but I didn't. You can't game this game. You have to drive the car and respond and react as your plans don't always go just as you thought.

Great fun.
Great drives.
Addicting.
