"Fuck you and your little Alfa Romeo clover." (Just frustration, guys; I dig the clover, and all the cars that wear it.)

Also, I kept accidentally uploading this picture of the starship Enterprise while trying to post the screenie that heads this post. Enjoy.

C Class on Laguna Seca? What rank are you?? If I'm already not faster than you, I'm hopping on Forza right now to destroy your time.

3015th. Laguna Seca's where I test most of my cars, so it's my best track—indeed, probably the only track that I'll ever be able to post an even mildly competitive time on.

I LOVE Laguna Seca. I'm ranked 4k something right now, running the lap as we speak.

This is why I stopped doing weekly fiveza challenges. I start to slowly loose my mind while playing.

Managed to move up to 2554 - which, coincidentally, is the year Halo 4's Warthog started production in - with a few more laps. I hereby declare myself the Master Chief of Laguna Seca.

Ooooh yeah, it really does a number on the old sanity. I've taken to listening to podcasts while running laps, to keep my mind from getting too caught up in it all.

Your secretly Halo!

Here's what I could do with the Alfa. I'm trying the Honda next.

I wouldn't have been able to do half the laps I've done without the help of Joe Rogan and Matt Farrah.

I'll beat you tomorrow—it's 02:50 AM here. And yup, that Civic might well be my favourite car to drive in the game. I really want one in real life, but they're incredibly rare, and mad-expensive.

Ok, no problem. I'll take this battle to the grave! Did they even sell Type Rs in America? I've never seen one. You guys get all the Type Rs.

I don't think they do, though if it makes you feel any better, they didn't actually officially sell the EK9 Type R - the one we've been driving - here. Thanks to our RHD-ness, and a very healthy grey-market JDM import scene, though, there's a decent few about. Still rare and expensive as balls, though.

I think the first Type R we got officially was the EP3. (Not the one in the thumbnail; the one he drives first.)

I know that feel, though my anguish generally has to do with my nineteen-ness working in concert with my country's utterly bloody ridiculous insurance system, rather than any geographic difficulties. In a year or so, I'll have a whole world of possibilities open up.

GOOD. I'd rather buy Alfas if I were in your position, but that's because we don't get them here at all, and they're awesome.
