It gives you the full customization box, strangely we can only adjust the top speed only. I find that I have to sacrifice some degree of topspeed, at the moment my EK9 is at 163mph which I use at the N'ring, but the agility around corners makes up for the time lost on that long stretch. But on circuits like SS Clubman, Close gear ratio is what you need, because it makes the car responsive, especially Honda's.

I'm fairly sure you can alter individual gears as I either remember doing this or I must have dreamt it! I'll try in a bit.

:p

Ah yeah I get what you mean. Are you looking at the typical opposition, or the entry requirements? I know that sounds a bit patronising but it's easy to get the two mixed up. Typical opponents is just a list of the cars the CPU often uses but a lot of the races don't have entry requirements. The hot hatch one is an example of this, the typical opponents shows a list of hot hatches so the quick Renault Clio's, 106 Rallye etc but the actual entry requirements have no requirements so you can just choose any car you like. I did it in a Veyron.

:p

They need to put pikes peak in a future game, that'd be awesome (For those who don't know: its an insane half gravel half tarmac rally stage up a Colorado mountian with crazy drops off the sides. Google it)

I wish they had the group B Quattro in this game. Also, is the T16 evo 2 in the used dealership? I think I've seen the mark 1 T16 but I want the bad boy with the increased BHP and ridiculous spoiler. :p

There is a Suzuki and an Audi with that name, but they're named after this track, which isn't in the game. I'll dig out a youtube video in a bit

I tuned my Delta S4 and it only had 480bhp. Gutted

I'm sure I saw it in one of the races. Tried one of the Extreme series with the good old Veyron and I shot past it. Very recognisable from the small body and excessive spoiler and aerodynamic upgrades. It's like an OTT Sonic the Hedgehog car, just without the spikes :D

EDIT: I stand corrected by, erm.... myself :o

897 Suzuki ESCUDO Dirt Trial Car '98

Looking at some of the secret trophies and they are... interesting to say the least. I unlocked the ending movie 5 days ago but it seems that isn't the actual ending movie, there's a proper, prolonged and better version, like there was in GT3, no idea what I have to do to unlock it though. I'm looking forward to some of the other stuff that unlocks too, the Sebastian Vettel challenge, endurance races and some of the trophies relate to damaging your car too. You get a trophy for flipping the car, and another for making a piece of your car fall off.

:D

Give me some of your Stealth codes ;)


Anyway, today is 1st December, isn't there an update due?

Edit: Only 1 Birthday car available for 1977 "386. S Lancia STRATOS Rally Car ‘77" and I am fairly sure I already have it as a prize from a race :(

I've just used it. :p

Still waiting on the other one they were supposed to be sending me, I might give that one away instead when it eventually comes. No update yet, I've just signed in and booted up GT5, maybe this afternoon / evening when the Store usually updates, or is that a Thursday?

Kill, how'd you get stealth codes when you ordered the standard version?
Click to expand...

Because I pre-ordered I guess. They sent me an email saying the codes had been delayed, that was a week ago and then they sent me a code for a stealthed 787B and said that the McLaren F1 stealth would be sent to me as soon as they get more codes. :D
