I've been playing... today... And I've got an 03 Elise 111MR (311whp), a Caddillac CIEN (Supercharged, 980whp), an FD RX7 (needed an FR car, sold a 309 whp Taurus SHO for it), a Delorean, and some Nike Concept car that RIPS (8 gears, 259hp, runs a 12.5).

Hell of a lotta fun.

I've been lapping the Nurburgring in everything! I've almost got that track memorized. It's so realistic, down to the graffiti (some of which I recognise from pics of the actual Ring.) The Elise sucks on it. It just hops and skips over the bumps. Super hard to control. The heavier cars really shine though.

The handling and realism is far beyond that of GT3. It took a little while to get used to it, but it's MUCH better.

Usually, means they aren't always right. Between the map, and driving it all day long, I've got a bunch of sections of turns memorized... but that's only in one car.

The green hell drives differently in each and every car. It drives one way in the STi, and a totally different way in the Cien.

IA license test 15 at the ring was a pain. Finally did it in 9.17.152 for a silver.

A gloomy rainy day here in Orlando, and I just picked up GT4 about 10 minutes ago.

My thoughts later.

FYI you can supercharge the 427 Cobra....and the off throttle/downshift flames sure do come out the side pipes :twisted: . And it can be used in the classic and compact races in the pro events.
He he, the traction control light blinks in a straight line in 5th gear. How fun would this car be in real life.

Wow.

This is the best driving game ever. Period.

I started with an 89 Galant VR4. I had to because it looked exactly like the one that slipped out of my hands when I was 16. Car hauls ass stock, and I'm demolishing people with it at 287hp.

I picked up an STi V2, for like 9 grand or something. I've only taken it on the 'Ring a couple times...

And I just got a `90 Infiniti G20 for FWD races...

The driving dynamics are so much more realistic. I noticed it the minute I slammed on my brakes and saw the pavement staring me straight in the face :shock: Stock cars have a lot of nosedive in this game.

I'm dumbfounded at the selection of cars. Anyone know what the hell that Countach-looking thing is over at the far right of the Japanese place??

Oh, and the pictures thing is the best. I only wish I knew how to upload them to my computer...

Save the pictures to a USB Jump-Drive. That's what I did.

The car your thinking of is the Domo-O or something like that. Doesn't look very cool.

I had the VR4 for a while on my first start on the game. It was pretty fun. Best car to start with if you start with the 10k.

I wanna tune my M3 GTR strictly for The Ring. I am hell bent and determined to pull a sub-7 minute lap.

I <3 The Ring.

Do the A-Spec points mean anything? Got to playing with the photo mode, the Super touring Bugeye you win from the all suby series rocks, 673hp and 1030Kg:

The Dome-O, I believe was Dome's attempt at a street car way back. Dome is a Japanese racecar constructor.

The rest can be seen here...

That's the M3 GTR. Fully loaded, fully lightened, fully caged on R-compounds.

In B-Spec, it ran a 6'44.011. I've gotten her down to 7'41.021. Slightly slower than my CSL (from pics above), but I've got more tweaking to do. The GTR is MUCH more capable than the CSL. Watching the driver in B-Spec, I was learning a lot about my suspension setup.

Once it's tuned, I should hopefully be able to break into the 6's!

Remember, I'm still a computer retard. How do I go about acquiring and using one of these things?

I transferred over my B and A licenses and $100 g's. I feel I almost had to because it's damn near IMPOSSIBLE to make money in this game. The don't give you shit for winning a race, and some of the cars you can't even sell, you can only get rid of... :evil:

Ya know what I absolutely love though, and Hardy alluded to it?? Being able to put other stock wheels on your car. I have Outlander wheels on my Galant VR4 and I think it looks bad-ass!
