The woman is on vacation for a week.

The 24h endurance races and GT Championship will slow me down though...

Uh oh I'm gonna catch MSZ. All I have left is Endurance, one-makes, Mission Hall, and Europe Endurance. I think once I do the one-makes I like and some Enduarnce I'll be pretty much done. No way I'll finish the missions.

I will see how it goes tomorrow.

I used a stock Minolta for the 24h NRing enduro. I won easily.

My F1 is ugly though. Yellow and black!

Wow! That's got to be the best looking model/texture combo I've seen out of GT4.

The enduro is finally done! Had a 32 laps lead after 233 laps.

And thankfully, my F1 got a right colour combo...I feel sorry for those who got that ugly orange car.

I am looking forward to the F1 trials.

But I am having a hard time to control that monster, the F1s in GT3 seemed to be easier to drive.

You can always re-enter the enduro to win another one.

They were much easier to drive in GT3. They were also very arcadey i.e. unrealistic. Not that I know what it would feel like to drive an F1 car in real life...

so I've been putting in some seat time with GTR using the DFP. After getting quite frustrated by the pedals moving around while playing (mainly moving forward) - I decided I needed to do something. I have the pedals on carpet and it just seemed like the bottom was made of smooth plastic so I'm thinking why the f did they do that - so I got so mad and turned it over to see what was going on there. Did you guys know there is a grip bar thing at the front of the pedals, underneath, that can be lowered by flicking this tab under there, that grips carpet like mad, so it won't move when your driving with it on carpet??? Pretty nice feature.

Maybe it was in the user manual, but, who reads those.

I can't win the Supercar Festival (the last race in the Professional Hall before the GT championship). I got the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 (fastest production car) and it sucks. No traction, thing is a boat. What did you guys use to beat it?

A fully modded R34 or NSX can kill the competition.

Thanks guys. I used a modded Viper SRT-10. Worked like a charm.

GT Championship is done, so is the Sarthe II 24h enduro (Bentley).
