Gran Turismo 5

during a race white smoke comes from the front left the car.

My Motul Civic does the same thing. I think it's because the tires are shot. Car also handle like pookie and gets significantly slower.

lol my ignore list is growing. <3 haters.

I'll be quite honest I think this game is going on craigslist a little later today. The car list fucking blows, the game isn't that awesome in general. The graphics are fucking hideous. I've never seen a game with so much hype look so damn ugly. I have all these credits yet I have been looking to buy a car for 20 minutes and cant pick one cause they all suck ass.

Forza 3 was much funner IMO they had cars I wanted to drive. ALL WITH INTERIOR VIEW.

I agree with you hear about the NASCAR racing in GT5. I hate this part of the game, it's no fun to me. The cars suck, and the driving is boring, steering sucks, you go one way, turning one way, and all you are doing is drafting the other cars in front of you to get ahead. It's not fun at all.

The rest of the game is fun so far. I liked getting my A and B licenses a lot. I got up to level 10 in about 5 hours.

Need to practice for the GT Academy.

[JBird]

So for the GT Academy, they use Automatic cars? I'm assuming because you guys said they use the Driving Force GT wheel.

So is there any word if you can EVER upgrade your brakes? Just curious. If there isn't seems like they missed a rather big part of the tuning world.

Yea^, rather interesting.. Anyone done the Lotus Top Gear Challenge?? They handle like ass

The VW Bus Top Gear challenge is probably the worst one I've played so far, aside from the NASCAR.

[DatUtahGuy]

Yeah the Lotus on top gear track sucks big time, if you're not super careful with throttle and steering you will lose it fast. Also, try braking in anything but a straight line and it's game over.

[pharow]

Yeah the Top Gear challenges are not good. That VW bus was the worst/slowest thing I have ever seen. The Lotus challenge was crazy. I was like WTF/OMG! If you even come close to another car or cone that's it.

BUT! The thing that is really making me mad is the darn NASCAR challenge. The 3rd intermediate challenge. I can not get it. I have been as close as something like a 10th off, and I can't get it. I am sure I'm the only one.

Here's hoping the rest of the challenges are WAY better.

[JBird]

What levels are you guys all at?

A: level 12
B: level 0

[DatUtahGuy]

Yeah I havent touched B spec. Im level 10 A spec

[xAZxE30x]

Im level 15. So far I have enjoyed the AMG Challenge thing... the AMG SLS is a beast! and then the license tests have consumed most of my time. The "Schumaker S" is quite the bitch!!

I didnt get why brakes couldnt be upgraded but they could in GT4... makes no sense to me. All you can do is adjust ABS. I really dig the music too and the photography area, pretty sweet how its just like a real dslr

[5Toes]

Im 14, I believe. Or 13. All gold in B license all but one gold in A license :)

The fucking A-7 or whatever when you are in the 1 series tii is HARD

All gold in Karting easy & intermiediate, NASCAR easy and Intermediate

[Ian Bowers]

I'm level A23, and have all gold in the AMG series that have been opened up. I also have all gold in ALL of the nascar shit that made me want to cut myself.

[pharow]

A spec.=15, B spec.=0. First two licenses, and the first 3 challenges just about done.
Z4=You better watch out!



SIKE!

Damn I have some work to do
