I switched up my 4wds for this one, hell i even took my RAM for a spin….. Now i’m a proud owner of the ESCUDO P.P. Whatta monster. And i snagged a couple of Audis in the OCD, especially the S4s.
I know this is off topic of this forum,ut I need some help. I’ve been trying to get all gold licenses, and I now have all but one. International C license challenge 3: Nissan 370Z on Indy road course. I’ve already got silver, and my best time is an 18.487 when I need an 18.3. I really don’t know how to squeeze that .187 out of the car. Any tips on setup or how to do it?
Did you try using Force Skid Recovery (whatever it’s called), I don’t remember if you can use it in license tests. I don’t normally use it, but if you are trying to squeeze that little bit more out of a car, I’d try it.
Thanks but the skid recovery force was already on and could not be changed. But it doesn’t matter, I’ve finally done it, an 18.269! That’s all licenses in gold, a great achievement for any GT player.
I mean my 07 evo.
This should be fun. My 09 evo should get the job done.
Used my Honda Dualnote, the opposition didn´t stand a chance, and who would have know that the reward for gold in all events would be so good, i mean, the Scudo Pikes Peak is the one of the best standart cars in the game!
I just did Laguna Seca with my 22B-STI With 475pp, can I go lower?
I did all the races except Cape Ring in a ’91 Skyline GT-R N1 (R32) at 460 PP with ease on the first try. Cape Ring needed two attempts, but I made a few mistakes.
This should be fun!!!
FINALLY!!!! Now I can put one of these Evo’s to good use.
I used the Mazdaspeed atenza 05 or Mazda 6 mps . Which is AWD . With 478 pp , made for some really good racing . Love whipping evos & scoobys in this beast . Lol .
Again another great seasonal, gave me a chance to use some rally cars I’d never used before. But I ask again, how can I have the opportunity to have my pictures at the top of the article? I see it’s something to do with photomode, but what’s that and how do I use it?
Nice seasonal, but PD should add something that makes more sense. Like a variable PP race series. You choose a drive train, pp and tires and then select your car. Then the game should match the cars based on what you chose and on top of that have the AI drive like the professional setting of arcade mode. This would kill the need for PD to keep coming up with events and give us the power to choose and PD can also just update their servers to dole out prizes based on difficulty, also the performance difference bonus would remain intact. Give us the power to make our races more competitive, increase the laps on courses and adding damage, tire wear and fuel consumption to the mix. The types of one time prizes should be changed depending on the theme, if you chose a muscle car you can win an old school muscle car, LMP race prize would be LMP type car. All the parts are there to make seasonal races like I envisioned.
excellent idea! would make for endless fun!!
I made it with Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX GSR ’05 (490PP) and I made it soooo easily…I can’t believe there is 530PP limit :D but good job PD…keep doing A-Spec I don’t give a damn about B-Spec
The Evo X shall lead me to victory!
Im guessing next seasonal event is MR?
Rats! Right in the middle of the 24 hour sarthe race in a-spec. Gotta finish that before I can check the OCD and run those seasonals. While I am glad the save race function works I still think it was poorly implemented.
And I’m smack dab in the middle of a 9 hour Tsukuba endurance. I wish PD made it so I could play other parts of GT5 and then go back to the endurance race.
i was getting tired of all the b spec races im glad pd released this event
Simply awesome picture of the mitsubishi there. Or as my Grand called them “misterbitchy”
Being sick on my birthday sucks, at least these seasonals are awesome!
Finally the r8 race car 01. Car #1016 in my garage.
Lets hope i can put my baru to use for this
