Take part in this if you want. Try to beat SLO_Cope's lap around World GP 1, 40.82 secs, and if you do, post it in here. You may use any truck and any settings, just don't use GOLD mode or alter the track.

LOL I assure you, that time can be beaten. In fact, pretty much any time can be beaten; it typically comes down to how much time ur willing to invest in the effort. If someone does beat it, send it to jumper@teamslo.com and he'll post it on our Hall of Fame. ;)

I'm close, my best is a 41.02.

6 laps, 1700, soft, shallow cut

Tried 1800, but I went slower. No biggie, let Cope keep it, it makes him feel important.

He also wears a cape, shaves his head, and rubs himself down with butter before racing. It must have helped this time.

LOL! Yup. they can all be beat and then again probably will. When you think this is it and there's no way it will go any lower, someone else will try a new approach / line and will find a way to shave it that little bit lower. Like Cope said, it depend a lot on how much time you're willing to invest in it.
