Great news on the Nordschleife!

@H-B

Slow and steady is better in the beginning, until you get comfortable.

Same with learning new cars and tracks. Something I'm not so good at sometimes, full on 100% all the time!

In the end catching slides will become second nature, especially when you're in the "zone". It's a great feeling driving on the limit.

EDIT:

Driving the Ferrari F40 is most about: Throttle control, throttle control and throttle control. And sometimes you almost need to powerslide it to go faster, scary in that car. I managed to knock off about 4 seconds with semi-slicks compared to my best time that didn't even get Bronze time. It takes time to learn the F40.
