Discussion I love having a guest leaderboard

My brother (blue) is slowly coming closer to my times, I’ve taught him everything he knows, but not everything I know. My dad is getting better every time he visits and it’s fun watching all our friends try to beat each others lap times. I have a running offer of $100 to any friends that can beat my lap.

I always wanted to do similar thing but wondering what car.. great selection of tracks that is short enough so people actually learn the track. Spa is a nice track but people will give up by the time they get 1 lap in. Sub 1 min laps is what gets people hooked so you have to drag them out!

Still indecisive on what car.. TCR is safe, but I main V8SC and want to show people what I muscle around 🤣

Watkins Glen short or Limerock no chicane would be my pick. Fast and flowing, short enough to memorize, but still require skill to master.

As for the car, a GT4 would be a good starter car. Less power and aero than GT3 but still fun.

Yes. Short intuitive tracks are the most important thing. If folks can’t make a lap they get very frustrated and tend to give up quickly.
