Another challenge request, simply just asking me to beat his time so that he can improve his time further for this challenge.

In this challenge, it's pretty much full throttle all the way. No brakes or letting off throttle is required at all except for the 2 hairpins. The best line is a balance between tarmac and dirt. Dipping your tires in the dirt banks will help you. However if you are too slow, it's best stick with tarmac and avoid sliding. If you are too fast, cut in more into the dirt. That's how you adjust your turns depending on your speed while full throttling.

At start, make sure you cut into the dirt in the first few shallow corners. It will aid you in the corners while doing full throttle. Turn too late, the car will slide and you will lose speed and time. After that, try to get a slingshot from the Blue Impreza. Gaining lot's of speed is crucial for cutting into the dirt for the next turns at full throttle. Too slow, your car will lose a lot of speed from the slippery surface at the waterfall area. The rest is pretty much full throttle until the 2 hairpins while dipping your tires into the dirt banks.

The tricky bit is the 2 hairpins and will be your time determining  section. I did not perform well at all at the hairpins and I wasn't happy about it, and definitely can be improved. Keep your car straight while braking and try to brake early. Too late, the car will slide, a slight touch on steering, the car will slide. Try to keep the car gripping without sliding for the fastest possible time. I slide too much on the first hairpin but the 2nd one was just nice, but not perfect.

After the 2 hairpins, again it's pretty much full throttle all the way and try to get to high speed as fast as you can. Boost at downhills for maximum optimisation. And of course avoid blind traffics. Manual transmission will give you the edge but I used automatic in this run.

Overall, this should be an easy time to beat if you know the techniques since I made a few mistakes with AI and traffic being a bitch.
