anybody have REAL females in their lives? Mine takes away from playing time.....

 

I am just glad to be a single, to be honest.

 

Yep...! But, during the week when I went nuts on the game, she was in San Fran visiting her friend, so...

 

Yeah I have to husband BS sometimes. That's why I've only played like 4 times since Saturday.

 

guilty as charged.... single at the moment... yea that gives me quite a bit of time... esp on weekends.

just ran 5:37 at Ring in the Nissan R92CP

 

WOW...

Nice time!

 

@ your member name.

very nice! i would try to match it, but i have no cars at that level... haha damn.

subtledreamer, just reached 21.5%

 

I'm at like 1.6% baby!

Oh and I did Sunday Cup again and bought an R34 VSpec. BTW, what's the N-1 version? I can't see difference specs wise but stupid Japanese car makers lie on their ratings for that old "handshake agreement."

 

hmmmm modded out the s2k to 400+HP......wow...talk about peaky power Will need to tune it better before i can race it. lol.....anyway, i'm gonna get over my initial dislike of the m3 GTR and use it to race. I'm moving onto the Professional Races. At like 10%.

 

can you by the cars for the F1 races or do you have to win them only

 

Yeah, I ran it a couple times last night and I'm down to about 2 minutes ... I was quoting that time off of my head.

 

yeah, my wife is ok with my 2 hr a night addiction. as long as I play in moderation she's fine.

 

I bought and souped up a stock 06 M5 and that thing is a beast! I'm going to turn it into a full out race car once I get to the extreme level of the game... but that thing is a beast...

 

I have all the licenses and no golds

 

Not even for braking?

 

i have 3 so far and no gold, probably wont get any for the last 2 i need to get

so dont feel so bad

 

same here, have to eat dinner and spend some time with her or she wont let me play

 

you have to win them initially - later on into the game, you can buy the black F1. much later on....

 

i got the F1 this morning. the thing rocks. i'm just wondering but it didn't let me into gt auto in the game to give it an oil change. do you guys have this problem?

 

you never have to do an oil change on the F1 car - it never loses power. funny thing is, you can't change the tires either - its stuck on race - medium. you can put on supersoft's in arcade mode though.

I posted some new pics of the F1 in the Photo Mode thread

 

here is a GREAT GT4 car database resource... in XLS format... right-click save as to save to your computer. It lists all the cars, and their vital stats, in a database format. Helps you decide what car to use/buy for particular events, etc.

GT4 Cars Database (Excel format)

it was created by Famine over at GTPlanet... here is the original thread.

gtplanet forums is a great place for everything gran turismo... they talk about everything from b-spec points to doing laps with the 1885 Mercedes Wagon (46 mins around that one track with a LONG straightway w/ 2 chicanes ).

 

gtplanet.net is a great place. But not its forum. TOO MANY KIDS AROUND.

"Where is my Vette C6?"
"What is 1080i?"
"How to win this/that car?"

Yea, I hate kids.

 

you learn to weed out and diffierentiate the meaningless posts from the helpful ones.

 

Yea right.....the ratio is about 10:1.

 

true

actually it may be worse

 

got the silver or whatever the first time out and kept going...

 

this is crazy - check the golds

 

He got the gold in S-16? holyfuck.

Thats the Japanese version mind you.(SauberC9)

17k+ A-Spec pts is pretty impressive too.

 

So he never fucked up and got a silver or bronze.

 

no he surely did, unless he is like the Terminator or something lol - you can get a silver or bronze, and then you can go back and get gold.... the medal listing will only show the best medal you got - the total the amount of license tests is 80 - (5 licenses, 16 tests each)... it will only show the total amount.

 

Gotcha.

Man I'm just B-Speccing a shitload of races now. I'm such an ass that I didn't know you can change ASM without buying something first. I move rear to 2 clicks higher for more oversteer and the car drives like a dream. I shaved off like 10 secs off my times.

 

I'm still playing and i'm still only like 10% done... Guess, i havn't gotten tired of playing the same race over and over again and buying cars left and right... and winning and selling the same car over and over again...

You guys are crazy ... playing this game non-stop...

 

heres a tip to get lots of money fast assuming you have lic B and/or A, forgot whats the requirement. Okay this is what u do, first pick a car than goto Capri Rally, the 2nd one in special condition events. win the two races, and sell the prized rally car for $256,000 each time. and u can repeat as many times u want

 

German Touring Championship is a hell lot better than this. You can make 880k credit in 15 mins.

 

i like this one...

I do the the Japanese events and the first one... and do the 5 race thing... but that takes forever... you can get about half of what MSZ said... but the 880K in about 15 min... that sounds cool...

thanks for the tips...

BTW: i need only 2 more licenses... IA and the rally one...

 

what's ASM??

 

LOL my roommate is racing his g/f... guess which car she made him pick...... she won, but it was not pretty....
