SOB... I'm trying to figure out why I'm so far off the back...especially considering my Beat has a higher HP/weight ratio than the Suzuki...well I misread it and thought no NOS or spoiler was allowed

ah. NOS was totally, totally key. i almost used a full tank of it on my one hot lap. 
. you all cracking on the cobra challenge yet? long gears + tons of torque + suck-ass tires + relatively unforgiving course == lots of fun. or frustration. i'm curious to see whether i'll have to go back for a second, faster time

Where do you win the black cars?
I found out it was day 694. I missed that like 1,000 days ago.
I did the N-ring with the Cien and won the Polyphony F1, and have been b-specing a bunch of endurance races padding my $$$. Only about $5 mil to go...

hey Toshi...I just hit race day 2001 and all the black cars were in the used section. I tried to buy them all but before I could get the last one it was updated and it was gone. I'm stoked because I missed them the first time...but I thought it was only a one shot deal?
The 787B is sick in all black
No wallriding in the last challenge - Right?

The stock tires are Sport Mediums right?
Assuming this is correct I am well under 2:23 with plenty to shave off

How the heck are you doing that? I've tried every trick I know for the controls and I can't get under 1.26
HHHMMMMFFFF!!!!
HHHMMMMFFFF!!!!
You really need to be smooth and have good throttle control. Carrying speed down the backstretch before the last 2 turns is really key.
Damn....1:22 is flying in that car stock.
carrying speed INTO the backstretch is key. don't early apex! don't early apex! don't early apex!
