I have done a 7.53 in a 111r.......but that was playing it on GT4. Went to the real thing in Sept and wont be trying to match that on the real thing, its far too scary!!!

Actually that would have been the rocket booster mod. You would seriously be flying to do that in reality - would have to be a highly modded car though.

Not really, only mods were sports exhaust and induction, showing as 202bhp, plus racing suspension and i think sports tyres, oh and all the driver aids switched off. I also speced up a 111r with full mods (315bhp) including the Nos, and off the top of my head think i got around in the low 7 mins (7.10 rings a bell). Best time is just under 6 mins in a Jag XJR 9 Le mans Car but i have an Audi R8 which i think can go quicker.

We should have a GT4 Challenge and post our best Lotus Car Times.

Would be good to compare time with everyone else.

Hi Just1 - I meant it would have to be seriously modded to do it in reality - Anything below 8 min is really quick and need straight line grunt as well. Have you seen the footage of the radical SR8 doing 6:55 - he didn't seem to even slow for the corners.

I'll have to have a go. I'm consistently under 6 mins with the Pescarolo using the Gt4 wheel and pedals. Under 8 mins with a standard Elise seems pretty quick to me.....

I wish i had one of those posh wheels, all my times are with a standard controller!!! And even more bizarre is that i always steer using the dpad and not the analouge stick. Weird but works for me!!!

Wheel makes it much more realistic, if a little harder. Well worth the money IMO.

What game mode is that in? Free run? Which tyres?

The game is in GT mode, manual box, and yes its done on the free run option, the 111r and 111s times are on medium sports tyres and the Ultimate Elise is on Medium Slicks.The 7.01 lap was a little bit untidy, i think I can knock a fair bit off that yet, maybe another 10-15 seconds???

One tip is to take all the driver aids off, its makes it a little bit more difficult but will bring faster times IMO.

Not had a chance to have a go mate. Been too engrossed in PES5. Give me a couple of weeks!
