Phew! I suck at driving the 911's. I keep spinning at about 140kph resulting in a crumpled car by the end. I gonna get whipped tonight!

The '73 RS and the '78 3.3 Turbo are really, really hard to drive compared to the others. It helps tons if you go through both the factory driver stuff (teaches car control) and the evolution mode (you work your way up to faster stuff). They were really important to me getting better. Also, I used to drive with the keyboard, but to get really good you need a wheel and pedals. With the keyboard you have to learn to throw the cars into slides through the corners since the only steering that you have is straight or full lock.

Damn! OK, I checked the IP on the above link 198.81.26.14 and at the upper right hand corner of the game it says 169.254.250.241, same one as last night which, I assume is the ISP router IP.

Any other ideas?

it might help to setup max downforce on the rear, max the suspension stiffness, max suspension travel (weird huh?) & i think use about 50% front toe in... I haven't played for ages, but from memory that setup worked better for most cars.
