69 Camaro SS is the unicorn up for grabs if you beat Rampage Jackson's Lap time this month. He hasn't set a solid time to beat yet but might as well get practicing

[Mindz]

I'll be on it. I have to check and see if I got the unicorn from last month.

[BigCarrot]

They should be sending them out on Feb 6th

Well I started with the dodge last night for about 5 laps. I think my fastest was a 1:50. That car slides like no other. Very difficult on the controller. =/ I'll have to play more tonight when I get back or tomorrow afternoon.

yeah this is a really tough car on this track. You have to be real relaxed on the throttle and steering check out my replay if you want to get an idea of how I run.

I also changed my sound settings to help me coupe with oversteer and loss of grip. I set tires to be the primary sound and removed music.

When I start hearing tires squeal I try to straighten out my steering and/or let of the gas slightly (it's all about being smooth if you go off the track all you have to do is run another lap. You make more money anyway doing more laps ) so I still have traction and therefore am increasing my speed instead of decreasing it. I'm currently 3 seconds slower than the top guys still but I'm improving

[Mindz]

Yeah, it's just hard to be so precise with the fact that analogs on the 360 controller is so tense. I really need to grab a wheel. =/

whats rampages time? i ran a 1:45.x on my 2nd lap last night

[BigCarrot]

I'll have to check when I get home I have him as my favorite. He set a dirty lap last time I checked so he'll probably have a time nailed down in a week or two that wont change.

I hear wheels can be challenging as well. If you're going to go that route don't get a cheap one. Set-up can also be tricky

[Darkstar November]

fanatec CSR wheel ftw. one day when im rich ill buy one

[BigCarrot]

Well got my unicorn but I can't share the car unless I remove the custom paint that's on it =[ Haven't decided if I want to do that yet or not.

[Mindz]

logging in to see if I got my car and to work on beating rampages time.

Already beat that with my quick warm up 10 minute session. Now I need to download the january pack to get the hyuara unicorn since I can't download it without the pack. =/

At least I get a second unicorn.
