2 quick questions-

1. Is there an easy way (or a way period) to turn off the music?

2. Two-player split screen. There is no replay option????? Am I missing something?

Holy heavens, there was an opponent called N. Senna.

1. I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that if you went into the music menu and set it so that all songs were not used for M-R-S (Menu-Race-Slideshow) then maybe it would disable all music.

Or just go into options and set menu, replay, race, etc. music volumes to 0. lol

2. Not sure.

Yup, that's a really cool experience. No stupid gear indicator flashing constantly makes all the difference. It also makes you appreciate the smooth visuals a lot more.

I love it... but I've also realized that I'm incapable of remembering what gear I'm in. :lol

I've used it as a crutch for so long apparently. It's taking some time to adjust, and I notice I've been driving more cars with the digital indicators. haha.... sigh. I suck.

So, I finally hit level 17 then for the moneys, finished off the karting. What you win for finishing the karting series? Paint. Fucking PAINT :lol

The prizes in this game are beyond woeful.

Well, what'd you expect them to award you for winning some kart races? An F1 car? :lol

Are there any known issues with the data install? Mine seems to be stuck at "20 minutes left" and doesn't look like its moving.

That's just what it does... never changes until it's done. :lol

Ignore the counter - it takes about an hour.

I believe some people won that race with a ZR1(Race Modded)

As for me, I had a choice between the Minolta 88C-V or Formula Gran Turismo so it was a piece of cake :lol

Anything. It's easy. That Mclaren will be plenty.

 

[Haunted]

R. Hammond
J. Clarkson
J. May

I hope May only appears at the bottom of the scoreboards.

and being a Premium car makes it more awesome than the Minolta

Ok Bonus #4, the Dodge Challenger. Am I just bad? I'm getting left in the dust. When I max speed @ 105 or so on the straight aways they just burn me.

20k custom transmission > adjust gears to higher top speed > ???? > profit

 

[expy]

After staying away from Historic Cote4 d'Azure and NASCAR Daytona for a long time... Finally got rid of both today! :lol

 

[demosthenes]

Just did it and was .105 from 1st, :lol

Try it again tomorrow!

I could read the help, but what does the higher speed offset?

i took shortcuts trough the grass :lol

 

[Fusebox]

Kept coming 5th in the Honda CRZ race until I realised it could be bumped up 4hp and so I did it and then I came first. Who woulda though 4hp would make such a difference?

 

[dronde]

flyyyyyy lambo galla

Acceleration, so it's better to have a balance rather than shooting it to the max.

 

[reilo]

I've looked everywhere, but how do you turn on mechanical damage in offline mode?

 

[Various Artists]

Got a crappy Honda Civic for my ticket 1000 (((((((((((((((

 

[weekend_warrior]

It's only available in the practice mode. It will show as an option in the screen were you pick automatic/manual trans, tires, etc.

What? That's unbelievably lame :lol

Thanks for the info.

 

[Branson]

So the fiat 500 challenge in the seasonal events, it says the car has to have 65hp but the one in the dealership has 68. Halp?

When I bought it the HP went down to 63, I didn't know if my eyes were playing tricks on me or what. It did qualify for the seasonal event though.

Ok thanks, I was confused a bit there lol.

PD's answer: the car hasnt "broken in" yet, hence the lowered HP. Once you drive it for a few hundred(or thousand) miles, the HP will bump up.

 

[Fusebox]

That RX7 seasonal race is crushing my usual steely resolve.

 

[cilonen]

Just realised it's now playing Jazzy/Lounge versions of Christmas songs at the main screen (where you select GT Life, Arcade, GT TV etc.).

JUST GOT MY first steering wheel since the U-Force.

Logitech DF GT

In the general wheel settings under the game's option menu, I made sure and turned Power Steering to "on" and as far as force feedback goes, I found it to be pretty nice at around 7. Although that's preference.

wow so its better to have the power steering to On?

 

[UFRA]

Are you making fun of me for that or is that a genuine question?

I was just trying to help D:

no, i mean mine was Off all the time :lol

 

[UFRA]

no, i mean mine was Off all the time :lol

:lol Oh ok. Yeah, I would turn it on and give it a try. lol I just did that by default because I've driven cars in real life without power steering before and it's kinda crappy. So naturally I thought that option would help out, and that setting combined with force feedback at 7 really feels about right compared to a typical car.

 

[Branson]

Which GTR did you guys use for the last seasonal challenge? I'm looking at the Spec V thinking this might work but it's 157,500 and didn't want to spend that much on something I wasn't sure of.

Spec V. There's probably a more optimally weighted GTR somewhere, but you're going to want to have a Spec V in your garage anyway, since it's a great car.

 

[theignoramus]

My GTR '07 just went up to 495hp, because I did a half hour of practice runs on SSR5. Lovely.

 

[expy]

What mode do you guys have your wheels set to? Amateur, Professional, or Simulation?!

 

[TTG]

Anyone else find themselves shuffling through camera angles? A lot of the time I'm in cockpit mode, but if the view is restrictive or it's a standard car, I use the bumper cam. On rally stages and in the rain, I still find myself going to the chase cam to see exactly where what is sliding. If anyone is using the chase cam for dry events, you're really missing out on the detail. Not visually, but in terms of when your car starts to lose grip. There's a huge difference in how perceptible it is with the cockpit/bumper cam vs chase.

Get the vanilla GTR, the specV isnt worth it for the price (double the price, only marginally faster). With the 70k difference you can buy all the weight reduction upgrades. Then blitz the seasonal challenge.

well that makes sense because modern cars have power steering anyway i'll turn it on later after this 1000km Suzuka race, my M. Burns is already lapping the 2nd place driver by 26 laps :lol
