Gran Turismo 5 - Nov. 2/1010

[skilzz]

Did the skyline race and got second and was 10 seconds back... used my R34. I am gonna try and get my R32 setup to take car of that race tommorrow.

im thinking of buying the oldest gtr(which i think is rear wheel drive so under-steer should be at minimum). also it will b less powerful so a perfect match for the sport soft tires. also guys make sure ur using SPORT SOFT tires because i had sport hard at first n couldnt figure out why the car didnt wanna turn.. lol

[accord=inspire?]

will b gettin the g27 4 my bday in march

nice man, im talking about one of these

^^^^^ Not what is topic of discussion.

That or maybe any of the gt-s models. They should be rear wheel drive.

[skilzz]

i thought it was gtr specific

[JDM_CB7_TX]

I am checking right now.....

edit:It is an all GT-R battle however there are a few GT-R M Spec thats should be rear-wheel drive. If not just but the equipment to make your gtr rwd. Just set the bias to the rear and you are good to go...

its not the power going to front wheels that make em understeer its because the car is nose heavy with the AWD equipment.

edit: i think that POS anuse carbon R maybe good for sumthing after all.. lol

[almostJDM]

wait you can use the carbon r on that race?

[GHOST 2.2]

I forgot how much power the amuse carbon r had. But it's too bad I already tuned it up to 700hp. I can't detune it.

I haven't tuned my r32 yet. I'll mess with the settings later and see if it cam make my times shorter.

[evil_demon_01]

No, For one its over the max HP rating as Ghost said which sucks.
And its not classed as a GTR, even though the description says its a modified GTR.

And it drives shit anyway

[JDM_CB7_TX]

Gonna do the other 2 races to see if they give you a prize car for getting all races done in the series....

[almostJDM]

grrr I still have 1 day until I can play GT again, I should have brought my ps3 with me lol

[zmanwit90accord]

anybody else get the hour long update??!?!?!?!?!?!?

watched mythbusters while i waited but will be on for most of the night

[CyborgGT]

The update that adds the online dealership that specializes in popular and rare cars? Yeah, I watched some Top Gear during.

Heh, I didn't even look at the tire regulations for the GT-R race and was on Sport Mediums! With those I got it down to 1.30x seconds of first place, that's gotta say something about my skill or tuning ability... maybe? ... No? Off to buy some Softs and have another go.

Ed. - okay, that was too easy. First time out after not playing the game for nearly 24 hours and I overtook the GT through turn 5 of the last lap. I wasn't "in the groove" at all, the tires felt different than the mediums I was so used to, I kept bumping into things on lap 1. By the end of lap 4, I was maybe two or three seconds behind where I was at the end of lap 5 with the mediums on! Won 300,000. Mediums are going back on now, they're more fun.

R35 spec.V. It's where it's at.

[JDM_CB7_TX]

I keeo almost falling asleep during the races. Damn you night shift! I am gonna take 2 energy shots at 5am and see if I can be wide awake enough to beat this damn race.

[CyborgGT]

My first real tune, and it was all in the handling. I call it the R5 after the track that's given us so much hell. Take this tune, stick the Sport Softs on it, and it's an easy win... if your driving style is similar to mine.
