Gran Turismo 5

[dude8383]

get the clubsport pedals. i am thinking of going that route myself and keeping the g25 wheel. or i might go baller and order the entire clubsport package.. not decided yet..

X 2, I was going to order the standard pedals but these are simply the best pedals on the market. I was just notified by Fanatec that they're in stock, so hopefully I will be receiving these pedals sometime soon!

I'm just gonna order the fanatec carrera. The low end one, but it comes with a shifter and pedals.

i just got my wheel. cant wait to use it

[richardkeith97]

what are people going to use for a car?

[5Toes]

I'm running the Logitech GT Force wheel - It works great, and is MUCH easier for me than the controller - but at this point, I'm wishing I had bought the Fanatec one. I originally bought the GT Force with the hope that I can get to the GT Academy finals: But that's not going to happen (damn lack of time / sim talent), and can't happen anyway (damn rules. I don't see what working for Nissan has to do with it...). Anyway, I'm thinking about selling my GT Force and buying the Fanatec - that way I can have a wheel I can use for Forza 2/3/4 also.


I miss the challenge of the restrictions on the bonus races..... Working to win the GT-R race was fun (although losing that one by 0.048 seconds pissed me off...). A lot of these seem way too easy now. I think from here on out, I'll get the car, add sport soft tires and race. If I cant win that way, sport susp. Then some extra ponies.

Although.... I ran a 6:41 and 6:45 in the Nascar on the Ring and ended up 5th; 15 seconds out of 1st???? What's up with that? 5Toes - gimme your AI!!!!



The extra $ and pts sure are nice. Finally hit level 25. And my crew of drivers are up to 18. Not sure how I'm gonna get B-spec to win the Historic cup - the R/M Challenger just doesn't cut it in the hands of an AI....

Okay, well I hacked a hospital computer... so Icant go look but heres what I remember.

Gamestop Nascar car. It was free with my game
Race soft - This is needed, those Nascars have too much power. Also, my car was free abd I figured 38000 credits on tires was nothing for 1,000,000

Suspension - 16 springs back, 15 front? Hmm with -20 front and back I believe. Set toe in .3 on front and back for understeer

Tranny tuned to 211 mph.

I cant believe I did it. Im on a controller too son

Oh and tcs at 5. Usually Im at 2/3 on all my other cars

Setup isn't the issue. Its the AI pace. My math says that my total time was6 seconds slower than yours. But I finished effectively 21 seconds back when you factor in AI pace. Ill have to try again. And not f'up my second lap...



New online r3v racing stuff - lets go for a few cars. >1000 kg <250HP. <350 HP. <500 HP.

Whats your lap times? Like I said I ran a 6:40 and 6:41

I think a 135i would be fun for the new race series, and keep with BMW spirit.

Or a RX7, the premium one from the dealer. That thing is damn stable fully tuned

[325_e30]

i say we all race 2002's. or the 190e's. fuckers better patch in an e30 -.-


edit or golf 1's

wish they had a rusted beater paint =/ lol

[5Toes]

Nah.. lancia delta over gold or 02

[Erick]

Ok, so I finally got my PS3 going and started playing GT5. Add me up people "eMahle"

[DatUtahGuy]

Fuuuuck my car ADD. So I keep buying cars because "I've always had a chub for that one!" and never get around to racing them or tuning them.

Just bough an S2000, bug-eye STI, Evo IX and was about to buy an M5 when I decided to stop, lol

edit: oh and a 430 scuderia.
