@Formula Emre - I was thinking the same and will go with that 1673 tune and give the Gamepad another shot. Although the reaction time from left/right isn't as fast as keyboard or touch controls, it might not be very vital as often as I think. I keep thinking because with touch steering I'm constantly taping left/right while even trying to go straight at times (ie: when trying to knock down pillars in a straight line, if that makes sense). With a gamepad you can smoothly stay straight easier...if that also makes any sense. Also, I think in TLEs a gamepad will give me far quicker lap times than touch even with my ability to micro-drift now, since as I stated before it's hard to do it on every turn like I should be doing, it's more for those few turns on tracks where it's absolutely necessary. It's half assed micro-drifting really. I just dislike the fact that I felt not as accurate when trying to thread the needle of the buses on azure coast or when trying to go right next to a vehicle in career mode to get a "Near miss". However, with practice it might not really phase me much once I get used to it. I'm so used to touch controls, I know I'm going to be right next to a vehicle for "near miss" points right when I see him coming into view, or right before I pass him, you know what I'm saying...I'm that comfortable with it like knowing your mouse sensitivity very well in a FPS PC game.

Love your stories on the SLK/Audi business and how players ph33r you! hah, players bowing out of the lobby and whatnot, love it! I'm kind of wondering about my SLK rank still, as I've seen Dr. H and others higher in the 1400s and I'm @1453 when tuned 8800, so they must have either more nitro or more than 5050 PRO. It's doing me well though so I'm sticking to it for now. Heck, you're still with 0 nitro and not trying to upgrade. I wonder how different our matchmaking is with the ARSEs. Maybe I'll check down again at some of your screenshots.

Cheers m8 and thanks again about the Gamepad bit, you must have read my mind today as I kept thinking the same during the St. Patrick's Day Cup.
