Two questions:
I'm only a beginner to GT4 having not played a GT game since GT1 on my PS1. I won all the races in GT1 in the Gran Turismo mode, but that isn't a huge achievement. Anyway, I've done a bit of racing and I'm currently working on my licenses in GT4. I've got gold on every National B test except the guided run in the Mini (B-5) around Tsukuba. When I'm driving that I feel very much restricted by my DS2 because the test requires such delicate and accurate steering. My DS2 sticks seem to have a small dead zone in the middle and then when you're out of that, the very minimum amount of steering seems to be quite a bit, so when going slow you get jerky steering. It's only causing me problems on tests where you need to be very gentle with the steering - I'm ending up cutting slow corners much too tight as a result, which makes Tuskuba's hairpins rather hard. Is this normal with a DS2 controller and something I'll get used to or should I buy a new controller? As a note, I've also got gold on most of the National A license tests, but on that B-5 test, my best time is over 7 tenths away from gold.
Second thing, in GT4 can you do the race specification upgrade to a car like you could in GT1. I think it was called that, it didn't do very much, just gave you a race car paint job with sponsors' stickers and things, it also stopped you upgrading the car any further. Not a biggie, but it made the cars look cool.
Thanks !
