Temple of speed!

I spent some days off recently playing my favourite car games. They are great. Oops, I am here to write about Gran Turismo. Today I will write for another historical circuit, Laguna Seca. Laguna Seca has eleven turns, including the famous "Corkscrew" at Turns 8A and 8B. Let's take a closer look.

You pass the finishing line and the lap starts. A few meters after you will reach a blind, full throttle corner. Try to pass curb as "gentler" as possible to be in the right form for Turn 2. Turn 2, or "The Andretti Hairpin" is a really demanding left hairpin. Brake hard and remember: stay always outside until you nearly reach halfway around the corner. It is really necessary to enter Turn 1 right. It is critical for your lap time.

After Turn 2, you have low speed. Accelerate and enter Turn 3 hitting the carb. After Turn 3 a small straight is in front of you. Full throttle here, break for less than a second and enter the quick Turn 4. Another small straight ahead and continue to push the gas hard. Turn 5 is another fast corner, but attention here is needed. You have to pass really fast while you keep the car under control. Brake here a bit earlier and accelerate at the exit.

I will be back soon with the remaining turns of Laguna. Good luck.
