Just wondering if anyone knows why this car has none whatsoever. Even with a wing :s.

I understand the SP8 class had regulation changes between 2011 and 2012 but wouldn't the wing equipped give a little downforce?

Just curious..
 
The Collectors Edition M3 Chromeline is the same way - big ass wing and no downforce, nor is adjustable... Eerie...
 
It's probably a wing that can't be adjusted. 💡 ;)
The wing can generate DF even if it's not adjustable I guess.

Edit: I know that the GTS wing is adjustable irl though..
No clue about the N24..

I know there already are unadjustable wings in GT5 that do have downforce that you CANNOT alter. But this one just has none :s.
 
Has anyone seen the default toe settings for this car? was it intended for a gamepad? , or perhaps a touchscreen smartphone input device? When I drove it stock with the T500RS, it handled worse than a '67 AC on comfort hards.
 
it's very weird on braking, but the handling isnt that bad. You just have to be very cautious about handling.

The no aero settings even if not adjustable is the same as the GTA tuned car, I guess they put it like that so they are true to the original or something.

ik,when i tuned it,the toe looks crazy but its fine but the camber is a bit too much because when I was tuning the car with that much camber,it had issues

Yes, the car oversteered like crazy and has no punch for its power. The 2011 car blows it away.
 
The car is 1700kg and it does not have any downforce!
It's 550pp after oil change and cannot shave weight.
Why don't they just use the original GTR to race instead!!!

PD: I want my USD0.99 back!!!
 
What are the stock toe and camber settings?
Only had enough to get the HSV till next week.

i think the camber is 2.5/2.5
and the toe is -1.00/0.50

way more toe and camber then a x1 and this car is no where a x1 to drive
 
Because a wing can be much more effective on a car that weighs much less compared to a car that is very heavy like the GTR
