that's it, after having multiple half hour sessions I've still not managed to get anything less than a 5:03:8. My hands now feel like they're going to fall apart if I touch my controller again

The track was hosted a couple of times last night, mostly in rain. In fact my first time here was in a heavy storm! Really enjoyed the Schwartzer at higher speeds and lower grip, in fact I think I just like the feel of rain. Tyre sounds become easier to understand and reduced grip level means it's less about 'twitch gaming' and more about genuine driving rhythm. I know I don't have the pace so I'm just looking for another clean race, like my hugely enjoyable run with the Fusilade. Think I've found the balance with the Schwartzer now. Well...I'm keeping it on the track nearly a whole lap at a time. Also proud to announce a late deal with everyone's favourite convenience store: 24/7! My car remains mostly white with just a couple of accents, to thank them for important support* in preparing this expensive car. Lara will be wearing their logo proudly. *The recent wave of store robberies has absolutely nothing to do with this. Just to be clear. EDIT: Here's a bit of track feedback copied from Social Club. Additionally: Apex prop to limit short cuts CP49-51. (You could liberate a couple from CP58 hairpin and switch out a standard prop for some of the Dynamics at pit lane exit.)
Pit lane exit props stick out into the road. Just the last one or two I think. Pit exit rules mean cars should stay to the side as they leave anyway. These props just mean side-by-side approach to turn 1 later in the race will cause the outside driver to hit a prop, because the inside driver thought there was a car width of space. And there was, until the yellow barrier in the road.
Really smooth and enjoyable route. This is race-safe thanks to some careful prop work at danger areas.
EDIT2: Wait a minute...it doesn't go through Los Santos! Should be called something else, like (PS3) San Andreas 24hr or maybe (PS3) Hills & Spills 24hr.
The description should advise it's around 5 minutes per lap, too.

I heard your horn, and wasn't sure if it meant "wait a sec" or "bye bye". Guess it was the latter hahaha!
