K I don't get it >.>

First thing that totally fucks me up is that first turn, the one you come into with all the speed from start up. I usually reach it while going about 149-151 kmph.. but I just dunno how to clear it without wall hitting. (talking my little Evo3 here).

Should I approach it in 4th? Or should I approach it in 5th and switch to 4th during/before the turn? I usually get out of the corner at about 123-128 kmph, but its too slow >.< Even when I brake, I find myself hitting the outside wall... I'd like to get out at maybe ~130 ish consistently.

And, should I be doing any sort of feints on any of the turns leading up to the first checkpoint (end of CP1) ?

Please share some tips =)

My e3 CP1 was

134 first hairpin clean
135 second hairpin, almsot clean XDD

i dunno.. brake in a straight line so u dont lock up..? OO!~~~ 2nd hairpin turn in all the way ~ONLY~ when u reach the apex, much faster.

u should stay in 4th and then break down to 135-138 and then gas it while trying to keep it clean.

Or go into 5th, break drop to 4th, turn, gas.

I drive the R32 and Evo4...
what i do is 4th gear and brake b4 and during the turn...i find that it turns better if u brake while it's turning too...for DC2 you let go of the brake once you turn..but 4WD u need to brake a little bit more.. so just brake and turn and let go during 1/4 of the turn and gas it...

second hairpin you should push it up to 4th gear no matter what car...the secret to this is to keep gassing it while u push it up so the speed stays relatively the same. Then, you press and depress gas while turning right and let go of gas once u hit the left turn and gas coming out of the right turn after. (was that confusing??? )

Oh I know Wes, and I like your style =) But if I can just figure out CP1, then I can finally get that 2'23 I'm looking for.

My best time is 2'27 with a horrible CP2 (I can cut one second off it everytime without any real difficulty), and I think I've learned to take CP4 faster too. Just damn CP1 >.>

ok since the evo3 sucks ass this is what I'm going to assume:

1st turn - stay in 4th, brake early + turn, gas after the apex a bit.

2nd turn - should be in 5th gear but gear down to 4th gear for the turn, you'll be closer to the inside and it will set you up for the next turn.
