Out of St. Eldred's Cup (Again....)

Not for the first time I have managed to haul myself out of the St. Eldred's Cup. Those seeking to apportion blame should look towards the "Spa...secret to getting near a 3:20?" thread of late last week. This gave me the incentive to try and improve my Spa lap-time, and lead to a 3:21.1, an improvement of 0.2s. Not quite a 3:20 yet.... I'm OK up to and out of Stavelot, and then it all goes pear shaped at the corners from then on. The theoretical "best lap" combining mine and the GPL benchmark is a 3:19 - so I'm losing a lot on this last section. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Anyway - over to you Eldred :-) Ian -- Ian Riches GPL Rank +6.25 Monsters of GPL +329.96

I've given up for now. The frustrations of the game itself and controller problems causing me to crash out of yeterday's GP race just pissed me off. I'm playing Diablo II for a while.

Monaco?!? That track went from being my FAVORITE in GP2 to the one I'd most like to detonate in GPL... I'm so far off the pace there it isn't even funny...
