Guaging interest in GT4 Competition... - Page 2

8'53.751 on my second go... hmmm you guys must be better arcade drivers than I am...

fordel · 13-03-2005, 01:33 PM

Yeah screenshots would be hard, but would be good to put them up, i till post my mine up when i start to get into it

Other then that can only rely on peoples honestly

obviously if the best time anyone can get is 8 flat someone who gets 5 mins in the phoon, is a bit of a cheat...

i think the 8:43 i did is a good starting point anyway as a rough guide

Yeah, I did a 8:59 in my ST170!!! only thing new was a NOS bottle, everything else stock. Oh, except the racing/medium tyres I had on there. I'm going to have to TRY to memorise that track. I love it. It's long, deceptively quick, and very very challenging.

I am also getting used to the feel of the game, needforspeed, it ISN'T the same as prologue or GT3.

fordel · 13-03-2005, 01:49 PM

Nice work !

Gives me something to aim for i am glad they have imperial blue in there

Might have to buy myself one later tonite when i have a bit more cash aftger spending $116k on an M5 hehe and try and beat your time Ferris

Just got the game. First thing I did was Arcade mode with the F6 at the Nurburgring. 8:48 it was a very messy lap, but it's not bad for a first go I guess. I might go and see if I can better it now.

**M&Ms** · 13-03-2005, 04:35 PM

I just did the Nurb lap in a stock F6 in 8'21.583

in a stock F6 you did a 8.21 i think we do need screenshots i think..

Psycho Chicken · 13-03-2005, 05:06 PM

I don't, that sounds fair to me. My 8.36 involved a very near spin coming out of one corner and heaps of offs. Another 15 seconds would be a piece of **** with practise.

BTW I'm doing it in a manual with sports medium tyres, might whack some softs on later.

fordel · 13-03-2005, 05:35 PM

same here i di the 8:43 with lots of off track runs hehe wasnt trying at all

What might be an idea is to just start a list with everyones username and the time they put up and just keep editing said list when you get a new updated time or if a new person gets a time, that way it will make it easy to see who is where and how fast/slow everyone is going

Just copy paste what is below and go from there i think

These are in fastest order atm, just trying to get all the users down before the thread gets to big

micmansour - 8'21.583
HOON69 - 8.25.472
Psycho Chicken - 8'36
fordel - 8'43
ianmcginley - 8'53.751
lvl619 - 8' something.....
needfordspeed - 9.08.225

more than happy to provide screenshots, i just dunno how to upload images onto here. If someone could tell me how, i'd appreciate it ... thanks...
Off to get a new PB :jab:

fordel · 13-03-2005, 05:48 PM

To upload the screenies, when you make a new post, click on " Go Advanced " then you will have the button which says " Manage Attachments "

Click on that and you can then upload a (small) file to the server

Else you can email me by and i can put them up for you

Cheers

Ah dude, you'll beat it easy. It was my first (and only so far) go. I disable ASM (o & u) and put TCS down to 1 on my Focus. It's too peaky to leave traction off completely, otherwise 1st AND 2nd gear become useless.

**M&Ms** · 13-03-2005, 05:54 PM

I think i got it

fordel · 13-03-2005, 05:58 PM

cool, they worked great

Chris

Kenaz · 13-03-2005, 06:42 PM

3rd go...

8:34.099 Need to learn the track a bit better. How good is it doing 250km/h down the back straight?

fordel · 13-03-2005, 06:50 PM

Very good time,
but i actually meant copying the times list please

Chris

XW 393 · 13-03-2005, 07:13 PM

I got my GT around the Nurburgring in 7.59, the best track on a racing game I reckon ....... im off to do it again !

BA GT-HO · 13-03-2005, 07:16 PM

I am up for this. Will try and get a screenshot up of my best time. What do you race with? I race with traction off, and all the other stability control and that on zero. Or do we race with it all on?

I'll post the pic soon, I reckon I could beat that time pretty easily as well, coz i'm kinda more used to the game now.

HOON69 · 13-03-2005, 07:51 PM

i need a better camera i'll post mine up later,im off to "practice" some more too..
micmansour thats pretty quick(didnt doubt you did it i just wanted to see pics of it) thats all.
i need to adjust my car settings im running a big mofo wing on mine right now LOL

BA GT-HO · 13-03-2005, 07:53 PM

8'19:213 with TC off and manual. I think I can go at least 5 seconds faster.

Kenaz · 13-03-2005, 08:11 PM

Does it have to be done in Time Trial mode? I just did a 'quick race' and clocked a 8'21:274 I won't add that time to the list incase it doesn't count

I just ran the Nismo R32 GT-R (294kW) and I did 8'05 on my first lap...
Now I know why these things were pulled out of Australian touring car races.... THIS IS A '89 MODEL TOO!!!!!
Man I wish I didn't have work this week, as I'd much rather do lap after lap of the Nurb in the F6 competing against you guys hehe.. (any excuse not to go LOL)

Dave_au · 14-03-2005, 12:25 AM

8.25:310 for me, I recon I can get faster.
