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

uhm, excuse my stupid but what are GT500 cars? I also don't know if I've got an un-modded JGTC or DTM car :p
I'll have a look about my garage.
 
rooms apparently have a unique number, although I'm looking through the list for yours now, if you could find the number that'd make it easier.
 
Jesus, B Spec guy on Suzuka in the wet, 30 laps, gonna need the Mazda 787b i reckon, just need it to turn up in the dealership, no idea what price it would be tho.
He smoked the other 2 races in the Furai, Furai in the wet with him at the wheel is a big no no, went straight to last place on the first corner !!
 
This sounds good to me, PSN is blingster989.
Then add Fish12002 (thats me) and use the "community" thing to find me :p
We're about to start a new room since it froze halfway through loading a track.

Se7en I keep all mine, although I've given away a few duplicates.
 
Bennah after 10 attempts at the Seasonal GTR race I couldnt get first place :( second was the best I could do, sad to see that 300k just sitting there... I will send your car back soon

What trouble are you having? Hows the GT-R setup and what mods?

Found this one the most fun and my driving to put it mildly was childish - just love tail happy cars (after torque bias to 30:70)...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Be sure he's got the right tires on ;)
Should be doable, either that or just level him up more.

Yeah, straight onto full wet tyres and it didnt make a difference. He did better in Tommy Kaira ZZII but thats 4wd, has 743 bhp and 910kg. But its not racing spec, unlike their cars. Will do a few races and buy a JGTC, see how they do in that. Could just get my ass in gear and get the Minolta, pretty sure they could win in that!!
Gonna have to level up my 2nd B Spec driver a bit if my top guy is having that much trouble. God konws what will happen when the baton is passed to him :) He's only level 11, but he hit that after 4 races.
Have my main guy do 20 of the 30 laps, have a big enough lead not even the lower level driver could screw it up and not finish 1st.
 
I just cant seem to catch up with #1, and its always the last lap close to the end where i get into second place.

Aerodynamics Downforce: 20
Transmission Max Speed: 211
LSD Initial Torque 5/13
Acceleration Sensitivity 21/45
Braking Sensitivity 12/20
Torque Distribution 35/65
Suspension;
Ride height -20/-20
Spring raare 15.5/10.9
(default rest)
Wheel Alignment;
Camber angle 2.2/1.5
Toe Angle 0.18/-0.10
break balance 6/5

^ probably all wrong, but i played about with several different settings and this was the one that got me the closest..
 
blargh, I lagged out and can't reconnect. "request timed out"

edit:
This game is trying so hard to be macho. No new cars come in pink and all references to B-Spec drivers say "him" or "his".
Bar Studs.

I caught the Ford GT by the big hairpin.

+1 for the transmission mods to 180mph. I used 10:90 split for the 4wd, that's just how I like my cars though. If you're struggling with understeer try that split.
 
I don't suppose anyone has a nice bright pink paint item to spare? I tried the deep pink metallic but it's too dark and dusty looking.
 
Okay my game bombed out just before the race. I have restarted router, ps3 etc and can get on in 10 mins anyone still up for some races? Maybe GT 300 class? so 300bhp min weight 1100?
 
ill have a look when i go back to it shortly
edit: oops, got one now mate, (thnx Nickg)
