I never thought that driving a Lamborghini would feel slow and pedestrian but after tuning those three VGT cars, it feels like I'm in my own Golf Bluemotion. It is quiet, serene and easy to drive.

Good time by the way and I see what I can do tomorrow, but I got to find some time over the weekend to try the other 5 time trials still to do or I will go .

A few notes about this car. It is DS3 compatible, it is extraordinarily fast and to make the most of this car, press R1 to turn off active aero down long straights. Remember to let go though when you come to a corner. It will not turn as well without the aero doing its dancing thing.

Some seriously cool imagery to come. Its like looking at a giant hornet that is trying to kill you..

now we have to wait untill PD create 1000 PP race and 750 PP road car events

I imagine that in the next few weeks or perhaps a month, PD will set a SRT Tomahawk event for these cars. They usually do this for VGT cars to get some exposure after the initial launch.

 

[shaunm80]

@ALB123 - I read that you weren't a fan of the new VGT cars, why not put a tune on them and see if they handle better for you? You may start to see a use for them then.

maybe i shall start my car up hehe

of course , i miss your attack already

One car down, 3 to go. (1 being a repeat car... why?)

Edit: 2 of of 4 cars achieved. If they think I can actually get bronze on Green Hell, they have another thing coming.. Might have to drop some credits for that one!

Hear hear 2586 car at the ring.... Yeah just gonna buy that one.
I think I will get the SRT and go test done BMWs today.

The SRT's are very good. Better than I expected in all honesty.

Woohoo. some more BMW reviews to come shortly then. Excellent news indeed!

I brought the car instead of driving myself crazy at the ring. It is worth 1 million credits easily.

 

[Otaliema]

Tis the season of giant moths at my house found this guy on my screen door this morning. It's about 50% larger then the one yesterday.

Edit: gotta get done lavender oil and add that to my spider spray keep the moths off my door. My wife and bugs don't mix

Edit 2; Looked this guy up it's called a Waved Sphinx Moth. only appear once a year were I live.

How far are you through testing the Beemers? Are you enjoying the tunes you have at your disposal?

 

[Otaliema]

So I just slapped @shaunm80 tune on the car and that transmission. even on TC 6 it's slipping and turning the rear tires red till 5th gear....

I didn't think for a moment that you would not enjoy these cars. Looking forward to seeing your final results

Yeah...I'm just not really into the arcade-like performance level of those cars. Now that I'm around 500 total cars in my Garage, I already have trouble finding the time to drive all of the cars that I truly love. I'd rather not even bother with these fantasy arcade cars. That's just my opinion. I look for as much realism as I can. That might sound silly, considering how much GT6 fails at realism in general, but it's the only "sim" style game I current own.

 

[shaunm80]

I am on fire today. I have 4 tunes completed and a fifth tune nearly finalised. They won't be published till this weekend but I think you will like them.

So, everybody had fun at today's update events?
I was hyped, checked at work with my phone and discovered SRT Tomahawk X at Nurburg??
Tried, failed, exit and bought it just for fun.

Tried it once... got 1 mile down the road and DQ'd. Gave up trying and brought the car for 1 million. I like the car and it has a very good design. It does an interesting dance as you move around the track, almost captivating to watch.

i was at that point too,

i have now more than 850 cars with +- 1300 tunes applied.

I painted my tunes according to tuners and have my 100 favorites always in my garage,

furthermore i move the race-cars or the road-cars to the stockyard...

it is fine to concentrate to either of them, and i don't miss the others...

also a mix is possible, i just moved 90 chevy's to the garage, and they are mixed...

bottom-line: there is a way to break, handle and administrate a 500+ collection without the feeling that you miss a car...
