Afroduck didnt send me a PM for his series, but me not being a uncouth badger I still did the challenge.

The point of the PM and posting it is to give more than one method of notification for the challenge.

to summarise

Spoiler:

i dont think you can reverse

New time to beat 1:36.938

i fucking did it anyway.

thanks rip i dont think im going to beat that time.i did mange a 1.37.2.
hopefully if i get back before 10pm this eve then i might give it a go.

Hugo, I haven't had a chance to try to beat that time, nor will I before the time ends. You win!

Alright, that's too bad. I was looking forward to making some more runs! Well, thanks for the challenge, it was really fun and definitely very difficult. Probably one of the areas i am least comfortable in so it was good to stretch my legs. Thanks again!!

I didn't manage to find some time for Forza until today, so I'm a bit late with setting a time on my own challenge. Evening shifts at work, kitchen being rebuilt, son going to school for his first year among other things puts forza low on the priority list these days. I got to a 12.601, which will be my final time and I hope you get some time to try and beat it still. Just noticed the LB didn't save my ghost, but I can send you the tune for legimity of the car (I got to a higher PI than yours).

Good time i'll give it another go, i think you may have missed the cut off point though.

I just checked the cut off time and that says 12 AM EST, which should be 6 PM CET (my local time), and I posted a time around 5.30 . This would mean I posted in time, but it is kind of lame all the way to the end of the allowed time. Therefor, if Dom doesn't mind, I'd be willing to grant you the time for a fair chance of beating it. I never meant to post a time this close to the deadline.

12AM is midnight

Unfortunately, as Snip mentioned the time would have been posted past the deadline. 12:00 AM EST is indeed midnight. I tried to clarify in the OP that it was "Saturday September 22 (Friday night/Saturday morning)."

Ah, that explains it then, even with the explanation I still read it wrong. 12 AM over here is noon and not midnight, but seeing friday should've been a hint in the right direction. None the less it's been a busy week and I couldn't get myself to playing the xbox. I still think it was a good choise of challenge, but congratulations to Snip then for posting a time before the actual deadline. The worst part is my challenge for the finals won't go through. The initial plan (before the start of CYS) was reverse on Ladera Short, but I would've changed to reverse 5 clean laps on Fujimi, in light of recent events (wíth pm).

who says midnight is 12 AM, AM is past 12 lol

Think this is why people often use noon or nidnight just to avoid any confusion
