Wow.  I *started* with the Eagle, then changed to the Ferrari after Alison made
her setups.  Since then, I've lowered my PB to 1:30.50.  I wonder if I could
even DRIVE the Eagle now - maybe that would get me to 1:28...? :)

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

I was stuck in the high 28's in the Ferrari so tried the Eagle and did a
1:27.9x in an online race practice session in about 7 laps or so, when I
went back to the Ferrari I got down to a 28.4x :)
Can't for the life of me get it down with the Lotus though !!

a little more. I feel if I switched to the lotus I could break the 1.28
barrier. However I still think the lotus is a wimpy way out since it is the
fastest car and I don't think it showed up till
Youll be slower in the Lotus if you've never used it.
The Lotus is the hardest car to drive hands down.
