momo Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Merc around the Ring? How about we make it interesting.. Take the Go Karts around Monaco! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 I missed it, which merc are we doing round the ring? Do we need photo proof if you claim a new fastest time? I'm saying yes I'm also up for the monaco in karts. The basic cart yes? (I'm not even sure if there are others? Doing both is good cause those good at big race tracks have a chance, and so do those good at the tight courses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///Marty Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Merc full Lap is the last one on beginners amg academy. Not done kart round Monaco yet I don't think. Will have a look when my sister has finished smashing my cars into every corner imaginable, usually with the horn on the whole time while she skids off the track!

momo Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Lol. Okay, mebbe forget the go karts.. I was kinda joking! However if you are deffo interested in the karts then i'd suggest maybe Tsukuba as a better track. The Go Karts hit bumps and spin too easily in monaco and they struggle to go up the hill after turn 1 up to Massenet. I'll give Nurburgring a go later when I get home!

suhail97 Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Do you need a certain licence for the time trials and cars used, or are they readily available? I'll only play an hour or so a week so it'll take me years to get the right licences lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 I reckon screenshots/camerashots are a must for validity X 2 . Gotta have Photographic evidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momo Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Just did a 9.28.977.. Don't think I need evidence for that.. Was quite a poor lap! Didn't realise you'd have to overtake while doing the lap too! Had a good couple of spins and smacked the slower cars quite a few times. Quite confident I can better that time.. Will try tomorrow now methinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
