i cant do the alfa race on grand tour :/

Bet your loosing time on the hairpins right? Just slam your brakes and steer into the corner be as tight into the corner as you can then power, thats what i did and eventually did it, just wait till you do the muricelago lp one

Possible Glitch!

Don't know if anyone else has noticed this but I won a Dodge Ram and I just went to do the B-Spec Compact Cup race and its letting me do the race in the Dodge Ram despite it clearly not being a compact car.

My level 3 B-Spec driver seams to be enjoying power sliding around corners as well.

GT wheel is epic

Ironingboard Stand Pro ftw.. could do with being an inch or so lower though, I may have to mod my ironing board
 
  FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU
I bought the wheel from maplins today. Seems good. I'm really getting in to the game. Also if anyone wants an iceberg 172 add Precutduck. One to swap for something interesting ;)

Anyone noticed how slow the Veyron is in the game, i just whoooped it on daytona ring, all i had was a gallardo pushing 561bhp and weight reduction stage 1 :s and it came 11th, hmm
 
  R26
397 bhp
880kg
lsd
fully customisable 6speed (bounces off the limiter at 210 lol)

slightly slower on straights but eats everything in the bends
 
  FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU
My challengers bhp seems to be going up the more I drive it. As if I'm breaking the engine in.

Did you get it pres?

Why is it when i go online i cant select any cars from my garage except the car im currently using in single player?

Ive tried adding cars to favourites but it still dont work.

Also how the hell do you invite a mate to a game if your in someone elses lobby?
 
Ok having now spent around an hour or so playing the game I'll give my first impressions. Sound is still abysmal, no two ways about it cars do not sound like their real life counterpart be it the Laguna V6 in the Clio or B series VTEC, K series VTEC in the Honda's. The audio appears to have been supplied by a blender, hedge trimmer or Dyson depending on CC and layout. Some of the cars appear to suffer massively over the top unstable characteristics under braking with a tendency to want to swap ends even with a gentle squeeze of the trigger. Reflections on the standard cars look dumb to say the least and when given closer static attention they do look a bit on the ropey side especially when compared to the premium. Lack of interior view when switching from premium to standard cars is also highly annoying and I still think it's a pisstake given the game has been in production for the last 6 years.

On the plus side when moving the standard cars don't (from a sensible distance) look that bad, it's an issue that becomes less noticeable when you're hacking along at a decent pace focusing on the driving rather than staring at the cars. The physics seem on the whole to be a comfortable step in the right direction from GT5p. The menu's have that familiar GT feel which those of us who grew up playing the previous GT games will know. There looks to be a decent variety of events in there which will hopefully mean playing the single player wont feel too much like you're just grinding to get it over with as in GT4. On the whole while it didn't blow me away or IMO live up to either the hype or the standard it should given it's length dev I will probably end up picking up a copy at some point in the future.

I only played the single player side of the game so didn't get a chance to see what the online side of things is like and only got a chance to play with a pad. Once I get a chance to play with a wheel (hopefully at some point in the next week or so) I'll make my mind up on the physics. Some cars seemed to react oddly but this could be due to the abysmal pad or it's programming so I'll avoid blaming the inconsistencies on the game until I've had a crack with the wheel. I actually really enjoyed the 300SL test on a section of the nurburgring :)

Having played for maybe 10 hours with the pad, and an hour or so so far with the wheel, the wheel is infinity times better
 
Turkish golded the first 300sl AMG event a second quicker than was needed! To be fair just watching it was awesome!

And he golded the bus race within 3 attempts so I now have the test track unlocked!

I now have ordered two wheels oddly, the £25 Maplin special and the GT Logitech £80 (Argos + £5 gift card back) However I am in possession of neither yet, will send one back but which one lol!

I reckon there's another second or so at least to be shaved off that time if I was left playing it longer and got the braking points and lines nailed, lol.

lol good effort above^^^

anyone done the pickup truck challenge??

i have just built a 500 bhp supercharged F150 Lightning :D lol
 
Just done the French championship le sarthe race in a standard 172 and surprisingly enjoyed it.

Did question the accuracy of it all though when a s2 rallye came past me at 120mph.

Gearing seems slightly out too, i know i had a gps indicated 138mph out of my ph1 with a good 1k rpm or so to go before it ran out of puff, yet in gt5 it hits the limiter at 141. Small point i know but the comparison was interesting.

Anyone had any problems with the Driving Force GT wheel? Got one here and the f**ker keeps going out of centre whilst in races, and I don't mean a few degrees. It's out by about 90 to 180 degree's within a couple of laps. F**king thing!!!!!!!!!!!
