KyLiE, please prepare yourself!
The track is ready and I will upload it as close as possible to the deadline of the previous race. The name of the track is Hidden Valley.
Here it is! Enjoy! :)
Hahaha, nice tricky track! ;)
Here comes a quick 56.00.
51.80
Wow! Nice track design! It reminds me a game I played in my old Atari 2600: River Ride.
49.25
Posting quickly without looking at other people's replays, but I'm pretty sure you've found the same tricks that I found: 1:01.00
0:59.15! Less than ten seconds to CTG? This can't be true. I never do so well XD
EDIT: After posting this one, I couldn't resist and took a look. Yes. Same tricks. Still, I don't think I can make it more than, say, two seconds better than this, with quite some effort.
That was charming :) Opening with a 46.55.
Quoting CTG on a different thread:

Btw I was always curious about the cornering speed anomaly. Most of the cars are stable in the corners up to X mph, losing grip between X and 1.1-1.2 X, and again, they turn without problem at 1.1-1.2 X. In the case of Melange, its stable under ~150 mph and between 170-180 mph.
Turn 2 here is a particularly good place to observe that anomaly.
58.00

Borderline, as per 2018-06-02 discussion (I was in Mantua, simpler times without social distancing...)
Update: 0:54.80 :)
Hey, time hiders! One day left! ;D

Oh no, I had actually forgotten with other stuff happening :o
There's still tomorrow though!
Here's a 0:50.85
My replay attached: 0:48.20
Slightly better.

Just to have a time... I'll try to improve. hahaha
Forgot about the switch to summer time, again... ::) We are in GMT+2 now. Replays are accepted till the original deadline (GMT+1 midnight).
From next week, deadline will be Sunday midnight, GMT+2.

So it'll be one hour earlier for those of us in Brazil and Argentina, at 19:00 GMT-3. Thanks for the heads-up!
By the way, a 44.85.

I've had this conversation with half a dozen people: it always ends up the same way...

Don't worry, this one was (one of) the last clock shift(s) in Europe.

Miscalculated yesterday, was a bit tired.
Personal life is a bit demanding at the moment..
Getting three points in the Melange race was a nice result that I wasn't counting on. Not half bad a round for me!

Alan took it too easy. He's the master of IMSA-like cars... ::)

A missed opportunity for me to. The track and shortcuts where very doable for me and I like the melange.

Accepted... 8)
It's also a fact that I could have done better..
Not enough to change the outcome probably 😜
I guess the KITT round will bring ever more surprising results.

You were saying something very very obvious 🤣

Status quo is broken, that's all.
It's not bad or good. It's just different from the expected result.

For me it would not be a problem to maintain UTC+2 all year round, but several countries (including Italy) have expressed their desire to keep clock changes.
