Gran Turismo 5 (Official Thread)

Thanks man, I'll give it another shot.

I changed my spring rate to 10.5/11 cause it kept on bouncing on the Circuit de La Sarthe and my dampeners were set much firmer than the setup you posted.

[hitbychance]

You can buy the Ferrari 512B '76 from the new car dealership. It's around 250K I believe. I can loan you mine if needed.

Thanks it worked great!

Takes way too long to get to the next race in Endurance section. On Bspec I'm at level 31, but have to get to 32 before next race. That basically requires running the 1000km of Suzuka Circuit 5-6 times, each time is 5.5 hrs dry or 7.5 hrs in rain. Insane.

I've only done the GV Endurance race on Aspec, 60 laps, little over 2 hrs, and that was insane enough.

[RCA]

A-Spec Nurburgring 24hr?

[alms24sebring]

ugh. Screw that. I am not looking forward to that. It might be easier on Bspec bc I can just let the game play all day. Its not till like lvl 38 anyways. Biggie, check that link that was posted about experience, I think I saw a fast way for the 'gap' around lvl 30.

Another thing, I did the Grand Valley endurance race and only got like $160,000. Suck my balls. The longer ones better give me more than that.

I also finally got the F1 car. It is sick fast but kinda sucks at slow 1st and 2nd gear turns with spinning and all. I will do the F1 champ race when I get on. Can you save in the middle of a series like GT4?? I forgot to check.

[RCA]

From what noticed, you can not save in the middle of a series. This sucks especially during the F1 series because each race is like 30 laps and there are ~6 different races. Not cool.

Have you tried quiting the game in the middle and see if it comes back?

I'm still not good enough on the F1 to have to worry about it and did the Dream Car on a weekend. The GV 60 lap Endro I had to pause and take a couple breaks.

[RCA]

I have, and when I go back there isn't a "Continue" option...

[alms24sebring]

Yeah thats why I was asking. Really not cool.. Why would they remove that essential feature?

[ThatGuyRoger]

when is the next online nico meet?

[ProudNissanFreak]

I haven't played in a while due to a Fifa rush, but I'm back now. Does Saturday night work for you guys? Around 9-10ish?

[alms24sebring]

Send me a message if Im online at all.

Roger you should join the team on Black Ops for a couple games, we dont lose.. well, rarely.

[ProudNissanFreak]

Did some online racing today. Got in a group of 16 for drifting on Autumn Ring Reverse. Soooo much fun! I'm getting much better at drifting as well. My car of choice is the 512BB, works very well.

If you want to drift go buy a Renault Turbo Maxi 5

I tried the birthday cheat a couple of times but I got sh*tty cars, instead of the 7, i even tried to get the 2j


i love my diesel fap car lol..

[RCA]

No cheat necessary.

The Toyota 7 Race Car '70 is the Like The Wind prize car for B-Spec.

[alms24sebring]

Muhahaha, I have surpassed everybody in ASpec on my friends list, with a close 2nd.

Meanwhile.. Bspec still a b***h, but not as raging of one at lvl 15

You can use the F1 car in like the wind and most other championships. Thank jebus for different tire options to on that car

[RCA]

Yeah see me in B-Spec Level 35.


Oh and also...
SH*T JUST GOT REAL...

[biggie]

I hit lvl 33 in Bspec yesterday, ran the 9hr race. Now the 2 24hr races to go.

The X1 was still way to hard to drive in the special events.

Tell me about it...

This car is impossible. I just crashed my way through the Nurburgring Nordschleife in ~5:20 and the record lap time is ~6:11...

[alms24sebring]

I know I saw you were on lvl 33 when I was looking. Biggie I need to remember to add you or you can add me to PSN

lol. Does it slide around on slow corners like the F1 or is it just such a fast mofo its hard to see the next corner?

Remember how crazy the F1 car was the first few times you used it...

Now that I am used to the F1, I am getting that feeling all over again with the X1.
You go into a turn with a speed you feel comfortable with and to throw the joystick to the right...
Then the car slams into the wall of the Apex of the turn. You say to yourself "it shouldn't turn that well". I went back into the Toyota 7 Race Car to finish the History Racing Cup and I couldn't drive it at all, I'm too used to driving the X1 now.

[ProudNissanFreak]

I won't be on much these days. 7 classes and a 20 hr/wk internship takes up all my time. Will try for weekends, but even then it's unlikely.

Crazy how life can fu*k up your gaming schedule. I will probably share the same fate, not as busy as you but I am probably worse at juggling my time.

[alms24sebring]

dam. been there before. luckily I only have 3 classes with 2 labs this semester and... still looking for work , so I have some game time.

[RCA]

Hey NICO GT5 I sent some of you guys some items labeled "Return this ASAP", I am trying to make copies of the "Matte Black" and "Silver Chrome" color panel and hope you guys can help me out. Just return them after you get them.

[alms24sebring]

Good thinkin .I have a matte black but was unsure which car to paint it.probably won't be till late tomorrow night or sunday before I can return anything if I was gifted
