Too hard. I like the real driving experience better. Plus it takes to long to load each time...

Me a whinger.

32.7 - just outside the top 10!

edit: If you've got a 6 button mouse, just click the "back" button each time you get your time. Then you don't have to wait for it to load.

65 secs with a few excursions -- can't seem to steer other than in 45 deg increments

Hey Kev, did you note on the lead-in they redline the motor when it's still cold

Or cracked the feedback mechanism and crafted up his own response... if it was in Australia I'd have had a network trace done and analysed by now :p
