Cool. Mugello it is. Time to do some laps :)
I've only managed 1.52.5~ so far. Plenty of room for improvement.
This game really rewards practice.
I wish they'd change the penalty system though. I'd rather an invalidated track than the jarring slow down for 5 secs. Really throws off your rhythm.
Not bad Patrick, I gave it a few more laps, I restarted a few times as I was getting sick of completing a whole lap after running wide.
But I managed to trim a little more time off. It's a nice feeling when you finally get a personal best again.
Actually the Zonda is not a bad car, managed to trim another 1.5 seconds off my Ferrari 599 time.
The Zonda is a pretty damn quick car.
I tend to restart a fair bit myself after a few bad corners. But by then I've completely lost the groove and find it hard to get back into.

The new car is brutal, it's a real handful. I didn't realize until now, but when you go to choose a car, if it has a spanner symbol by it (see screenshot), you can click it and select a different/tuned version of that car.
This is the S1 version of the new car, trimmed 10 seconds off my previous best at Mugello in no time.
