Hi Wishy,
The outright lap record at Laguna Seca is held by Helio Castro Neves in a CART Champ Car at 1:07.722  (118.969 MPH)

Never quite understood the Playstation thing, or video games at all for that matter.  I got a PS2 a couple of years ago as a gift and have used it maybe three times.   I just get bored as sh*t with video games.  Would rather be doing something real, out on the bike, etc.

Yeah, but what color underpants was he wearing that day, John?

I suppose I should clarify that wasn't slagging people who play video games.  Got a brother, nephews and friends who love them and can play for hours on end.  
Just that I've got the attention span of a budgie and after two minutes on the PS2 I'm getting distracted.

PS2

I just bought it to keep my son entertained, honest!

but sometimes he needs some help.

That probable won't last long though as he's growing up fast.

A good few years ago, I got TOCA Touring Cars game for PS1 and really enjoyed playing it - but it f**ked-me up.
After playing the game, I felt dizzy, particularly when I went to bed (a bit like the effects of alcohol on young teenagers) and it was quite nauseating. I didn't associate the game to the dizziness and just assumed that I had a massive inoperable brain tumor - or something equally jolly and fatal.
When I finally figured it out, I moderated my track time and avoided Donnington, as I believe it was the topography that did my head in. I was perfectly OK with Sonic the Hedgehog, you'll be pleased to learn.

If it's any consolation to those who play on games consoles
When jnr asks me to play,I decline..........mainly because he is a wizard at driving games and I am c**p.!

The other week I had a Nissan Skyline fully kitted and he had a standard Golf GTI and he completely trounced me.

So the moral to the story ...is....I give up!!!!!
