### final results ###

nice run subwall!
now, on to the elise.
lap 1) 1:40.724 totally overshot the top of the corkscrew... ;P
lap 2) 1:48.184 dismal... just ruined the first left handerswent in too hot and too early and then ended up going way too wide and off into the dirt. blew the courage i was feeling through the first lap.
lap 3) weird, the game glitched and still shows 1:48.184, though i was right behind my first lap ghost...
exited and doing one lap
lap 4) 1:46.872 concentration was totally blown, just started not being able to keep the car on a clean line and was constantly putting a couple tires in the dirt which just really unsettles the little guy.
i guess the moral here is don't drive an elise when you're scared of it. and don't drive on the corkscrew when you're not.
