rFactor is pretty awesome.(Part 1)

This is going to be a little blog series about my(probably endless)quest at getting better/semi-good at rFactor, or well, simracing in general.
I've been playing rFactor a LOT for the past few weeks now, with past experience as well, and am starting to set myself a few goals, which i will try to keep you guys posted about. There will occasionally be some video,but for the time being i'm still trying to find a good solution for recording some.
The circuit i've mainly been practicing on has been the Circuit Gilles Villenueve in Montreal,Canada. I've been "learning" on a 2011 McLaren MP4-26, or McLaren's this year's F1 car. I'm using 2010 qualifying times as comparison,since I can not use KERS or DRS.( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_Energy_Recovery_Systems , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_Reduction_System)
Objectives:
- Reach a time of 1:16.000 around the already mentioned circuit. Current:1:18.428
- Learn manual shifting.
- Learn to handle the car with no driving aids.
Those are my goals for the time being, I will definently be bringing in new ones as i complete these ones, especially hopefully trying to master the entire 2011 calendar.
Also,if any of you happen to have the game, shoot me a PM for some random driving about!
That's it for this first introductory blog, hope you enjoyed reading!
