GOLD Grand Turismo 5 - Top Gear Track - Intermediate Lotus 

This is how a non-professional gets 1st/Gold on this challenge - it was tough!
Tips: change default controls to hv R2-accelerate, L2-brakes. Drive settings TCS: 1, ABS: 1.
Cones with stripes can be knocked down. Solid orange ones can't.
Keep trying! Good luck!
