I cleanly break 1-30 with the ConceptCar in the Grand Valley 300

Using the yellow prize Concept car in my main game, I finished in 1-27:28.1, truly breaking 1.5 hours now!

Wow. I had lapped the field twice by my first pitstop, and just kept charging along. Every single flying lap was under 1:30!

I suffered hardly any incidents at all--I ran just a little wide on one of the hairpins once, on lap 46, just barely touching the gravel.

I won Cr300,000, and a black/green Castrol Supra GT.

Once again I actually recorded all lap times, as follows:

Lucky you! 8-)
