    Disillusioned with this competition, I do not think it is the best way to organize a week championship...a new mod, with too many setup options and available aids, I hope they do a good job cheking the fast laps It is relatively easy to gain time outside the track lines

    Anyone getting into Top 20's should submit their replay files for review to be authenticated

    Would that do the trick ?

    why would you have to send a replay if servers save them all? you may be even sending your setup to their server for check without knowing ;)

    I got curious and did a quick google search. Found what I think is his personal youtube channel where he ask you to subscribe to his main youtube channel. The name of his main youtube channel is BlackGoku (yeah, THAT guy).

    EDIT: For those who don't know, he was recently banned from this forum for insulting people, after said people pointed out that the mod he was promoting and taking credit for was in fact made of content stolen from other mods.

    Pretty certain you have to register to see the ranking. On the other hand, I downloaded the list just to see the laptime distribution. Bulk of the entrants (16%) are in the 2:01s, with a long tail out to 2:13s (and some even slower strays). Those in the 1:57s represent 3% of the entrants.

    I am not in wfg but last night did a race weekend at Silverstone and my best lap was 2.10, how the hell is virtually everyone quicker than that? Lol. I couldn't even find another 5 seconds, let alone 13 to be at the same time as the aliens! How do you guys do it?

    The aliens are using loose setups and have excellent car control capabilities, not overdoing it in the slow sections, but absolutely bombing it everywhere else. It's worthwhile joining the competition just to watch some of their laps.

    First things first though... put some rubber down on the track and then work on your driving lines & car control with the default setup. Follow some slow AI if you have to, with a typical driver getting into the 2:06s on successive laps and faster (not alien) drivers getting a few seconds below that.

    Edit: bwana's answer is so much shorter, LOL!
