Please keep in mind that these are not necessarily my best times (CLICK HERE for my best times/replays). All replays will be shown in 1st person mode (in-cabin, the same display that I have when driving).

Here's a run at Suzuka in the LEGACY. This one's simple, but might not be easy. The consumer cars like this one don't respond to steering inputs as quickly as the other high-powered race cars, so being mindful of speed and angle are always important.

There are lamp posts along the right side barrier, and I use the last one as my marker for turn-in. I brake from 119 to 99, then jump back on the gas as I approach the inside curb. For this test, you can finish on the right hand side to maintain a quicker line, as opposed to making your way back to the left for the final chicane.

Here's a video of my run:
