Spa circuit Ð Jenson Button my time 1.47.679

Just go down the way you go to the pit stop. You will see the tyres by where the last corner is. Head for these you should be going about 180MPH. you can either fly pass and hope that you can keep from skidding all over the place from hitting the grass. Or when you are still on the tarmac before you have reached the tyres brake and you can get past the tyres on to the road and hopefully if done right you'll be going at 140MPH and the straight towards the finish line. I find that the latter works best for me. Sometimes you can skid out of control if done wrong or hit the tyres which sends you into a spin. Sometimes I get about 120MPH out of it but I have got over 140MPH before.

How do you do the Bus stop then, I just steam down the pit lane and turn off at the last minute, praying that I don't crash!!

Good, I got to lay off it for a bit as I have A-Level exams to revise for. I might have a quick blast once in a while. When they are over on June 13th then I can spend more time getting a perfect time.

You need to do the 2 shortcuts well. If you slip over the grass on the first shortcut then thats no good. At the bus stop if you take the shortcut wrong you can blow the lap there. Just keep to the racing line and be smooth. Work out where you can get the best line through. Just practise getting round the course in one piece without going off. Then try to improve each corner so you take it as fast as you can. My time of 1:45:097 was on the fisrt lap. I can get at least another 0:00:500 from being able to get a better first section time.
