    'Ring Tips - from a forum idiot.

    Read this and enjoy comments such as:

    "If you have an increased amount of downforce, your car will stick to the ground, and variably, will accelerate faster."

    "The more Drag you have, the higher a top speed you have."

    Anyone know if Pitslayer is on the GTR forums?

    He maybe correct ........Next time I'm at the Ring, I'll leave my hand brake on and see how the drag increases my top speed.

    Maybe he's on about reducing the drag under the car by increasing downforce to lower it.who knows but what a load of guff and all based on computer games. Maybe if I have a bump I'll just press the reset and carry on.
    How can he take himself seriously!! Mind you I only read the first few paragraphs before getting bored

    Stay off my forum, donut boy - you're lowering the tone!

    The KieranCorp Secret Service continues to viciously abuse and falsely accuse this innocent paragon of virtue. The distress has been so great that he no longer can continue his selfless charitable work with homeless children and abused sheep.

    The Kierancorp Secret service is interested in hearing from anyone who has red hair, likes wearing a spook uniform, and enjoys nocturnal barbecues. Funny handshake optional.

    Oh dear God, what a Rodney. Where do you even start with a thread like that?

    40-45! Any faster in a normal car with normal tyres and any fillings you have will be dislodged long before you bury yourself in the armco. Willing to try faster then here's a tip - ensure you have a very large bank balance and a good health plan first
