Eldred, At most of the other tracks you are pretty close (faster, even on two), and your best is faster than what I would consider a "good" lap for me. Your skill (or lack of skill) level is thus pretty similar indeed to mine. At Monaco, however, I can lap pretty consistently faster than your best. You lose as much time to me over the 1:30-odd of this ytrack as you do over the whole 8:30-odd of the 'ring. Some concerted effort here would probably reap great rewards! Things that helped me at Monaco included: 1) Braking earlier and more gently for the corners. I was flying up to them, braking hard at the last minute, and more often than not losing it. Earlier, more gentle braking has enabled me to keep much better control, carry more speed into, through, and out of of the corner. I also crash a lot less :-) 2) Don't get too hung up on the chicane. It's a bit of a "zen" thing, but once you "get it", you seem to "get it". Focusing further down the track on where I wanted to be, rather than looking at the chicane itself helped, as did (perversly enough) going through at full throttle. I still lift a bit coming over the crest though - it's the only way I can anything like guarantee getting the car in the right place to enter the "corner". Hope some of this helps. (but not too much.... :-) ) Ian -- Ian Riches GPL Rank +6.48 Monsters of GPL +340.25

The sad thing is, Eldred can never lead or get out of the St. Eldred's Cup. He's always going to be in the middle. Porr Eldred ;) Well, unless he beats Greger Huttu, which I think can happen... ;) Thanks, Alex Alex <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
