Well, assuming we have no last minute entries, below you will find the latest leaderboard, as well as details on the next challenge.

This week we will be lapping lemans (long, without the kink). In A class supercars of many different nations. You have free range among the Corvette ZR1, Ford GT, Nissan GTR Black Edition, and Ferrari F458.

The time to beat is 4:06.913.

What will your strategy be? A 900+ hp Corvette for max speed? A low slung mid engine supercar to gain time in the twisties? Or the awd power/ease of the Nissan?

Current Leaderboard

I haven't done any of these, I feel really bad when you go on to the next one and I haven't done it. This week will be different! Two questions, what is the exact LeMans track and can we modify the cars to our liking with no restrictions?

The third "old" one without the kink. Free mods up to 700pi aka a class cap. The trick is simply trying to do a clean lap... It took me till my 20th lap before I finally posted that clean time.

Ok got it. I don't think I've ever done a clean LeMans lap on this game. I'm up for the challenge. It's awesome that you're doing this, don't stop. I'll participate more, I promise.

I look forward to having more competition, I get far more enjoyment out of the game setting these competitions up then the standard career mode, it gets me to try new cars, test/tune, and even itches my inner photographer.

I still haven't touched the camera feature, which is idiotic when I know how beautiful the graphics are.

Nice lap time, even my dirty laps were barely at 4:00 guess I am gonna have to set up 20+ laps and ignore my dirties to improve my time.

P.s. great idea to get phone background image.

Just got an xbox one, really xcited for this. Is there some group that I have to join when I set it up or something to join these contests?

No groups, just add your name to the spreadsheet and post here when you set your time, or have pictures, or questions, or anything really.

I'll use my super duper v8-rotary-turbo-super-diesel in my Mitsubishi STi ZR1 TDI. You can't handle it.

You're right. I can't even pronounce it.

Obligatory

Probably could've posted a better time had I used the 'vette, but I was too lazy.

Good job :) most of the top times overall for that class/track are ford gt's

I looked and saw that. It's weird, I wouldn't think the Ford GT was very good because of how long it's gearing is.
