is this car good? im 1 race away from winning it in the ssr5 wet in the rally races

well for rally its alright except if im right you do have a little trouble coming out of the line sometimes if you got dirt tires on but if you need a good car for the FF challenge in pro mode this is the car you should use just put on like medium slicks you dont even have to change the suspension or anything youll still win either way

but famine was telling of how the car can do the mistral race which is hella hard considering the fact that youre competing aganist gt-one racecar, r390 racebar and the dreaded 787b but anyway its a good car to have even though you might just use it once or twice

too bad it isnt 4wd tho

hahahaha famine might be able too as well as some people... but the xsara is not good enough for most ppl to win mistral with... i will see what i can win it with later... famine is fast

Well I like the Xsara Rally Car as a FF. I wouldn't use it for rally though . . . I prefer the 206 for that. But as far as FF goes, I personally think the Xsara is the easist FF to drive in all of GT3.

I agree.👍

The only thing I dont like about it though is you have to take it real easy with the accelerator if you don't use all that "TCS" crap like I don't.

Well any FF is going to be that way without TCS. I'm learning to drive without TCS on car . . . I'm learning slowly. But at first I was only about five tenths of a second slower on my fastest laps around Laguna Seca in a couple cars. Haven't tried since though to see if there is any difference. I'm finding it somewhat hard to control real smoothly with the buttons on the DS2 controller . . . and I can't stand the right control stick for throttle and brakes . . . it is even less smooth for me. I'll eventually learn to get better at it . . . just like I learned to drive in the bumper cam view.

I had a crack the other day - to put my money where my mouth is - and it's ******g hard...

With the R390 and GT-ONE in the field, I finished 4 laps down to the Nissan and 3 laps to the Toyota (it would have been 3 and 3 if I'd held out for another corner). This was with fair-fighting though - no using the AI to corner with, no wall-rubbing.

I maintain that it's possible - I know of two people who have done it that I trust and one who claims to that I don't. However you need either a special set of circumstances or a disregard for fairness.

You can either **** seven bells out of the AI and trap them (the pit lane entrance is good for 7 laps of stuckness). Or you can be lucky enough to only face the 787B out of the GT1 class cars - he pits more often and is an easier target. Of course both methods require you to be pretty handy with an FF and Monaco in the first place...

I think that I'll try that tomorrow because I have no life, or anything to do.

Man, that life sucks doesn't it . . . for some reason, it sounds somewhat familiar . . .
