GPL: Mexico The manual, Four Wheel Drift, has a given the incorrect fastest race lap for the Mexico City track. The real lap time was 1:48.13 and not 1:43.13 and therefore NOT 10 seconds faster than the then current record of 1:53.75. I've been playing this demanding track and from what I've discovered, it would be impossible to lap at that time. I only hope that in GP mode the game is not modelled on this time! The best lap I've achieved is 1:52.06 but it was enough to win the novice race, and only come 6th on the short intermediate race. comments please, Alan
The best simmers around are in the 47s atm. 46s will start showing up soon. Probably 45s not long after. Dunno about 44s :))
