They start off easy but get much harder, thought the drafting in the race S2000's was quite cool

I'm stuck on the one where you have to overtake the 350Z approaching the tunnel at Trial Mountain

I can get on his back bumper by the exit of the tunnel, but that's it.

Had a lot of trouble with this one myself.

Trick is to brake earlier than normal, well before you get to the tunnel and then straight-line it through the tunnel heading towards the left of the track.

In any case I only just squeeked it by somthing like 0.014!

I've tried that tactic many a time. Doesn't seem to work too well for me though, they always seem to recover really quickly.

Got upto the Merc around The Ring last night. One before the Test on Intl A (I think). Too tired to finish it.
Any idea what you win for completing 'Intl A' and then the 'Special' Licence ?

Those last two 'IntA' tests are a riot. That evoII 190 Mercedes handles so sweetly, and the Hunaudières test to finish just rocked my world.
For passing the test I was just a touch nonplussed to receive a nissan 270r (like a 200sx). Perhaps I should have won gold in every test...

I was getting pretty frustrated with the Merc on the 'ring test. I push too hard and then end up crashing and after completing about 80% of the lap it gets tiring being dumped back at the beginning. I wouldn't care so much except I'm well within the time limits. I could easily make the 10 minute limit if I just took it easy, but I just can't stop myself from driving like a lunatic.

Done them consecutively at the weekend. Total time. 6 HRS. loved the full mulsanne. Not one sodding gold though!!! Couldn't get under 9m on the ring in the standard 190e evo coz of the bastard Pace car getting in the way. 9m 02s can you believe it? Gold at the Ring in the DTM IS possible I swear, down to 7m 14 at the moment. 7m 07 is just right perfect I think. Bastards.

likewise, my G Force Steering wheel was all over the place at 233mph. Really intense, felt like I was breaking into a sweat.
