Virtua Racing arcade game

        Does anybody here play the arcade game Virtua Racing?  I am sort of
hooked (it is so expensive that it really wipes me out!).  Anyway, I usually
win on the beginner course, which I think is really the best course.  I usually
play with the auto-shift and my best lap times are in the low 39s range.  I
don't do as well on the expert course, but getting better.  Anybody out there
want to share some tips?  For instance, what is the best line throught the
hairpin?  I usually try to begin my turning a little early so that I am already
on the throttle when I hit the late apex.  The turn right after the hairpin is
sort of tricky, but I quickly stab the brakes to enable the car to turn better
without losing traction.  Anybody out there have any other tricks?  (by the
way, is it ever to your advantage to make the pit stop for tires?)
