Didnt really know where else to put this :crazy:
But is the escudo as good as it used to be in all the other games of GT or is it ****ty now liek to see any pics or vids :)
 
I think the car is useless for actually rallys in GT4. Too much power, and you basically just spend the rally spinning your tires and slamming into walls. I have a video of me doing the Swiss Alps with the Escudo on my friends computer, and i'll try to post it if he ever gets it back online.

Please...

The Escudo was (and is) a brick. Too much peaky horsepower, terrible understeer, ugly as hell. True, some folks were able to get one more or less tamed and lay down some fairly decent lap times (myself included) but for an 1800+ HP car and as light as it was, it never did (and never will) reach the full potential of it's ridiculous power/weight ratio. This car was designed to do one thing; climb Pikes Peak. Which isn't even in GT4.
 
heres some pics!





and for all u naysayers, ive used this to win alot of the rally races in GT4 and it worked pretty damn good! u just gotta be able to control the beast!

It wasn't any good for being driven around the Pikes Peak in GT2 either... the rear would snap out as soon as you touched the throttle. and of course you cant modulate throttle in GT2. GT3: It had the understeer of an oil tanker. All it was good for were wheelies. GT4? Not looking favourable...
