First Updates (September 4th 2005 - 21h48, GMT -5)

On The Races Board:
- Monday September 5th 2005, Test runs, practice runs on Laguna Seca Raceway. Preparation for the Laguna Seca 200 Miles. Testing the capacities of the BMW M3 GTR Race Car, getting the car prepared for the race.
- Tuesday September 6th 2005, Big day, Laguna Seca 200 Miles Endurance Race is on, full A-Spec, full DFP

24h Nurburgring Updates:
- As some of you knows, I'm getting mentally, physically and technically prepared for the biggest race of them all. I'm not ready yet to do it, I still have some theories and Reports to read. I got a lot to learn about what I want to step in. I'm a Nurburgring's veteran racer, I always race on it, but the endurance race still not the same thing as Track Meets... I need to acquire much informations about this race, even if I think I know enough, "We never have enough informations"... So, I'm still planning all this, as I said, FULL A-SPEC, FULL DFP !!!! I'll keep yall informed about this.

DFP:
- I just bought a DFP today, and I have to say, its totally insane... I like it all !!!! Except, it seems that my brake pedal is too sensible, I just touch it and the brakes are locked... WTF !!! so everytime I don't pay attention, I get my brakes locked and I just turn around... Its even worst in NFSU2 because the brakes are ultra sensible in this game, so with the DFP pedals, its just ****ed up... Anyway, the wheel is just so great, I can't wait to make the big Nurburgring 24 hours with it


Second Updates (September 5th 2005 - 20h41, GMT -5)

On The Races Board:
- Tuesday September 6th 2005, Laguna Seca 200 Miles Endurance race is gonna take place. Full A-Spec, Full DFP. I just bought a PlayStation Pescarolo C60 and I decided to take it to the endurance race instead of the BMW M3 GTR Race Car. I made some test runs on Laguna Seca and I must say that the PS-P-C60 is THE best race car I've ever drove... Powerful, not handling like the GT-one but its a great car... Hope to have some very good results for you tomorrow on the endurance...


Updates (September 6th 2005 - 15h12, GMT -5)

On The Races Board:
- I've just finished the Laguna Seca 200 Miles with a final time of 2:05'45.057. I decided to use the PlayStation Pescarolo C60 instead of the BMW M3 GTR Race Car and I must say it was a charming race. Despite of the pedals electric problem, I been +9laps of the Shelby Serie 1 in 2nd place. I did regular times from 1'20 to the best 1'16. I must say, I liked this endurance and I hope to race another one soon, as soon as I will repair the electric problems of my pedals...


Updates (September 7th 2005 - 21h18, GMT -5)

Day Off = DFP Pedals pissed off:
- A day off is quite deserved after a great performance of yesterday in the Laguna Seca 200 Miles endurance race. Despite of playing GT4 today, I caught myself playing Need For Speed Underground 2. PEDAL PROBLEMS ARRIVED !!! I tought it was the wires that was touching each others but I think its the general pedal problem thing so I'm gonna need to fix it soon because THE HELL IT SUCKS !!!!!! So, I've opened it, found nothing strange so I decided to close it and I'll repair it another time (well maybe tomorrow). So anyway, I just tryed NFSU2 again, the pedal seems ok for now, but I hope that it still this way...

24h Nurburgring Updates:
- Well after an enjoying 30 minutes to find out that my pedals were having the problems that every DFP of this board got... So, I'll need to fix this soon. Concerning the 24h race, it still a little bit far away because I got some things to do before. I'm starting to think about what I'm gonna need and do, planning is soon. I'll expose some theories later too.

I keep a diary at
geocities.com/gt2toxs/gt/logs/gt4-game1.txt

https://toxs.net/~gt2toxs/gt2/geo/gt/logs/gt4-game1.txt

I record most of the above there, but not mileage. (Later, I did begin recording mileage there...)
I have a program which can take that diary and produce a listing of my garage, ordered by date acquired. As a side-effect that program does various minor validation.

Decided to add the image as an attachment. Plus a related one.

Last Update Feb09/2021

Wow. I'm surprised I actually edited this in Aug 2020. I guess I was prompted by photobucket images dying.

I am pretty sure I did not play GT4 in August 2020. This past week or so, I have been trying to redo the Final Super License test (Mercedes Touring Car at Nurburgring), but so far reverted to practising for it in Arcade Mode. Sometimes by a -10 race using the car, other times in Time Trial mode. I am still at least 15 seconds over, and cannot stay off the grass for an entire lap. Early in this current re-opening I did complete a lap or two of the other Nurburgring lap license test, with the pace car, finishing well over a minute outside the goal..

u could see it in my sig. and it will update everytime when i'm done playing gt4 for day..... and SAY NO TO B-SPEC!!! lol... Favorite Accomplishments: done everything By me....

please help
greets

 

[Diego440]

I seriously doubt this is the correct thread to ask this question. You should check the Used car lists... anyway, it's in the late 90s used car lot... I don't know the day when it appears, but it appears quite often.

[skaterava]

got al my licenses, finished the beginner and half way through professional stages, and im now entertaining myself with trying to find out the fastest road car from each country on the Las Vegas Drag Strip. Japan are miles ahead with the GTR concept at 7.987 seconds, then Germany with the Le Mans Quattro, then England with the Esprit V8 at 8.707 seconds. its entertaining to find faster and better road cars to push England to the top.
