The main reason I still play GT5 is to test cars around certain tracks. I have three tracks that I do time trials around. I buy a car stock, and choose which one of three categories it fits into (high performance road cars, road cars and racing cars). Then I do an oil change and (if the car is used) a car wash. l Then buy a set of tires and hot lap the car around a track. Here are the tracks and tyres I use I use:

-> Nordschleife-High performance road cars-Sports Soft tyres
-> Eiger Nordwand-Road cars-Comfort Soft tyres
-> Suzuka-Racing cars-Racing Medium tyres

Now that part isn't really crazy, it's just me being OCD and wanting everything to be organised :lol:

The crazy part is that as I drive these cars around the track I find myself reviewing them in a Jeremy Clarkson-esque fashion. I am kept occupied for hours talking in my head about the intricacies of each car. I sometimes even find myself making stupid metaphors - "Driving the Caterham is like masturbation. Very fun, very exciting, but you would be very embarassed if anyone ever saw you" :lol:

Have I officially lost my mind?
 
Same thing here.
What else to do when it's late and you're bored (I'm not old enough to be married)?
Monologues are epic.
 
To come up with that last metaphor, yes. But, thinking of anything to keep yourself occupied is no problem at all. Only if you don't go too for with it when sharing it with others.
 
Pretty much the exact same thing, other than track choice.
TG Test Track-Road Cars-Comfort Soft
Cape Ring Inside-Sports Cars- Sports Medium
Nurburgring GP-Super Cars-Sports Soft
Nurb. 24 Hour-High End Racers(Like thePeugeot 908)-Race Soft
Nordschleife-Normal Racers(Like the Nissan GTR Race Car)-Race Medium
I'm sure theres some I don't remember since it's late and I'm tired.

Due to the lack of events however,this little hobby of setting times in new cars has become so much of a chore to continue with that I've given up on the game entirely, but that's a whole other subject all together.
 
No
just a top gear fan lol
I picture Jeremy talking when im driving around the top gear track
like " oww close to the tires " or " here comes the hammer head " lol
 
That is, perhaps, the stupidest thing.... in the world!

Poooooooowwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Nah, I do it every time I play! I'm a huge Top Gear nerd, and have neither shame, nor dignity. It's gotten so bad, I've lost my American lexicon and started using words like "bonnet" and "spanner".

Now if GT would just incorporate some of Top Gears epic races...
 
I do it to and one time my brother heard me say ppppooowwwwweeeereee like Jeremy says it and I was quite embarrassed but I got a good laugh out of it.
