This track has so many places where you can screw up your run... 1. AI cars at the start may screw up your initial acceleration 2. The S-curves at the hospital 3. Driving the right turn by the advertisement booth 4. The 90° angle and it's invisible extension (how close can you go?) 5. Braking at the right spot after the long "straight" 6. The final 180° curve before the finish straight. My problem is mostly braking too much. Jussi The key of mastering this track is just doing the turns over and over again. Try every method (braking, releasing gas, tapping and releasing w/arrow key continuously) and memorize the perfect place where you can position the car and turn, and also the maximum ending speed for each corner. It took me a day to do this and some videos here helped me of course. I wish I could record a 1:49 but my laptop doesn't agree.

Dammit, I have been getting this type lately. It's so frustrating that my name goes to the end of the list or disappears afterall it's not an easy track for me and it doesn't show up either at nfs-s.com nor nfsunlimited.com P.S. this is not for the record, I'll post my final entry tomorrow.

The final 180° curve before the finish straight. My problem is mostly braking too much. Jussi Some tips even yet i'm not the fastest driver here 1. Do the PS and veer into left a tiny bit and go through the middle in front of 2 AI. 2. Go wide left/right at the right/left corner/curve and dive in. DO NOT brake hard. Just tap once or two into brake. From start to last my lowest speed was 120 mph, 100 mph, 118 mph. 3. Some early braking, actually a tiny bit of slowing down and one or two tap in the brake. And you may be able to take that corner at 100-110 mph 4. Same. Go as much as left (close to wall) (need some good braking but NOT that hard) and dive in to right. Just left a tiny amount of space for the invisible extension. I took this corner at 90 mph max but not in my best run Its a bad corner. 5. I'm still learning this 6. Take this 180 curve real wide and cut as much as possible in its final portion. My exit speed was 105 mph Too much braking is bad. Mostly I do slight tapping in the brake in slow cars. These PBRC's really help you to become a better racers. Jussi 100% true and my driving in NFSW improved a lot by this

i dont brake so mutch...i only slow down I have noticed that I use brakes in places where lifting the throttle would be enough. Seeing videos of other people drive the tracks, helps me to notice those spots, so I can try and see if I could go through them without using the brakes. I had the same problem last week, where I would brake before the first chicane, but videos showed me that lifting the throttle and right line would be enough to get through that. These PBRC's really help you to become a better racers. I'm just so old, that it's taking me longer, lol. Jussi lol you not old Jussi ye i see that to some races i use the brakes...but when i see a video of someone driving i dont see any brake only slow down in some places!!!

I wasn't suspecting your time, I just wanted to see how to drive it so fast. LamboGTR already posted a video of that. Jussi Hey, I had already posted a video of a 1:51 with Silvia a few days ago. But of course the one from Lambo is even better.

Hey, I had already posted a video of a 1:51 with Silvia a few days ago. I need to watch that too. I really do use brakes too much when I drive. I guess I'm too afraid of scratching my paint. Jussi
