    Just for the fun of it, try and see how fast you can go (clockwise) around the perimeter road on the Small Island map. It doesn't have to be timed or anything,
    but just post your videos and see who's best at racing rally style! It can be in any car (please no extremely overpowerd cars though) and any viewpoint that
    you're good at.

    Here's mine in the Bolide FT40R:



    Here's the track:

    Wow, that was legit.
    And your headlights don't work? Because mine do.

    If you go into the "super_headlights" jbeam file you can edit the brightness and so on.

    Oh, that reminds me - headlight ranges on all cars are roughly doubled for the next update :) Did this weeks ago and forgot about it. One of many small fixes/improvements coming.

    DON'T NEED NO FANCY-PANCY MACHINE TO RALLY.

    Did this in the Gavril H, stripped. Was good fun, though on my first, unrecorded run I pulled a time of 1:45~, which I sadly couldn't replicated after trying for goddamn-ages while recording.

    Here's my run at 1:54~.

    Having a tournament with my Covet GTi mod for someone to run 5 laps as fast as they can. You guys should take a swing at it :p.

    I must just be really bad at this game or something because I think I have only made it around us island or whatever it is once or twice, and I have failed many, many, many, many times. I always slide off the road and hit a tree or something

    Yeah, I use a wheel, too. Maybe we should start a bad drivers group.

    I've noticed that having lower fps makes it a lot harder to drive. Not saying that's the case for you but I do notice it.


    I'd totally join the bad drivers group :D

    Oh hell yeah. When the fps is low, it;s almost impossible to drive. It's like the inputs are delayed or something, on top of the fps. I want a new computer, but I can't decide what I really need to spend my money on. I need to save up for a car, but I wish I could really enjoy this game and games like it.

    Yeah, the input lag is something we're aware of and would like to improve :) Of course, the root of it is low FPS, and there are some big performance improvements coming in the next update.
