Play GT5 Prologue with WRC Stars
December 16th, 2008 by Jordan
Visitors from France, votre attention s’il vous plaît! Citroen launched a new competition yesterday, and it could put you head-to-head with World Rally Champion Sébastien Loeb. Visitors to Citroen’s C42 Showcase on the Champs-Élysées in Paris can hop in to a GT5 Prologue racing pod and set the fastest lap in a GTbyCitroen (of course). The four fastest drivers get the chance to meet and compete against all of Citroen’s WRC drivers and co-drivers, including Loeb, Daniel Elena, Dani Sordo and Marc Marti in the game. If you’re interested, though, you’d better act fast – hot laps are accepted until this Thursday, 
December 18, and the competition itself takes place on December 20, 2008.
Even if you don’t break in to the top times, you’ll still get to see the one and only real-life model of the GT byCitroen – they may even be taking orders. We don’t have any details about the physics settings or track used to set hot laps, so if one of you get the chance to stop by C42 and check it out, please leave a note in our comments or send us your pictures from the event. Check out Citroen’s full press release for all the details.

I just went to the Toyota Showcase place in Tokyo and they have GT5P racing pods set up running the Lexus ISF. The following were the settings they used and the likely settings for the French competition:
Wheel: DFGT
MT/AT up to user
Tyres: R3/R3
Physics: Standard
ASM: ON (You can turn it off yourself on the fly using the DFGT)
Traction Control: 5 (You can change yourself)
ABS: 1 (Not changeable)

Well done. I have always regarded you as a good racer, when we have raced on line, but I never realised you were that good.
Look Forward to racing you on line.
