Ones legal ones not. :)

The TVNZ one is official, has DRM, can only be played on windows machine with MS Media Player
The youyube/piracy doesnt, and is easier for people to use.

I'd take the second option.

I'm struggling to care, to be honest.

I never would have seen this otherwise anyway, so they're not losing anything.

But meh, thread is about superlap, not piracy.

So keepin a little on topic, gutted for the GTR owner that stacked it into the wall. :?

yea not trying to stir shit, Just fail to see the difference between getting it from different sources for the same cost, on the same platform.

But yeah, I cringed a bit when I saw the gtr hit the wall :(

Congrats to Barry (BAZDA) for his efforts at the superlap!!

Article and photo in the latest NZPC gave him great credits as he finished overall 4th, right behind an EVO 8 and 2 GTRs, who would complain about that?? especially in an 1800 front wheel drive!!

"The surprise drive, however, came from Barry Manon in his AE92 Toyota Levin. Normally seen ripping up the quarter mile in 10-seconds, Manon bought his big-boosting Toyota out to play at Pukekohe, and was duly reward with a four overall spot after running a best lap of 1.04.80."

TOP 10 OVERALL

Driver Vehicle Class Fastest Lap
1
Scott Kreyl Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII Street Pro 1.02.03
2
Garry Sutton Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R Street 1.02.83
3
Harry Dodson Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R Street Pro 1.04.63
4
Barry Manon Toyota Levin GT-Z AE92 Street 1.04.80


BIG UPS!!

your car won't work as well at Taupo, 4wd is a disadvantage at puke where as at Taupo 2 it's worth seconds. so hopefully your mod is 4wd....... :)

I've been to taupo once on the full A1GP track. 8), straight off the street with worn out semis, it was also my first time driving the car on a circuit. I was VERY surprised how well it went. You would have never known it was front wheel drive :)

You must be looking for a 1.10-1.11ish on that Taupo2 track.

F**K me just imagine if when they eventually get to Manfield you'll have no competition there.
