***The Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread***

I Need to complete 1 lap of the nurburgring to finish the professional level and can't do it! :(

It's the second race on the last series of 5 races on the pro level, just can't keep my damn car on the track. What car did everyone else use for this? I'm using a suped up murcielago, it's got the speed just can't control it

Tinker with traction control?

What tyres you got? What upgrades you running? Where are you finding it uncontrollable?
 
Right this is strange.

My R33 Skyline GT-R (p) had 660Bhp. This was fully tune with High RPM turbo. Now, I installed the 5 speed close transmission on it, then changed back to the fully customizable transmission. While I was at it, I thought I'd purchase all the other turbos, low range - mid range, and now it's at 701BHP.

How did that happen?

Oil change? lol!

Anyone else finding B-Spec like watching paint dry? :confused:

Saving B-Spec for late night play time when I'm to tired to concentrate on racing, but not ready to go to bed.

Had one race, and as others have said, my driver was just shocking.

Try not using full throttle all the time

I'm using the 36k? tyres,i think soft race. I'm running every conceivable upgrade. I find absolutely anything other than a straight line hard! Only on the nurburgring though, I'm fine racing it on any other track, think it's due to how narrow the track is.
 
You can pretty much leave it on in the background... bit like a screensaver you need to press a few buttons to keep going.

Had the same issue with the nurburgring. Stay off the power as much as you can, take your time. Use your straightline speed to get in front early on and then take it easy. Do you also have the Aero parts? Increasing the downforce helps.

Go back to your standard diff, Knock the traction and ABS up a notch, give yourself a slight rear brake bias also. See how that goes. You using auto gears?
 
Gah, that's irritating, took me ages to get that gold :p

Done all gold up to IA now, not even started the S licence yet, decided instead to actually do some races and completed the beginners races :)
 
The Slalom is the one with the cones and Cooper S, isn't it? I agree, I don't know how anyones got a Gold on that. I've been pushing hard and I still don't get near even the Silver time!
