License Test S-8 Help

[Supra897]

I finally got to the last license test S-8. The best time I got was 4 secs longer than the bronze time. I dont remember the S License in GT2 being that hard.

Yeah, that one was a bitch.  It took me about 45 mins just to beat it.

remember use a manual, and saty in 3rd gear in most turns to prevent spinning. Some will ned to be taken in 2nd, so go practice.

You don't need to use a manual. In fact, I think that would end up just confusing most drivers.

The key is to use the analog sticks, I doubt very much that it can be done using the buttons. A constant rhythm of brake and accelerator is required, never really putting your foot to the floor on either. Also, try coasting around a corner as apposed to sliding, ie not using any brake but keeping a constant speed by pressing the accelerator stick forward slightly.

I agree, it is very hard but persevere and I'm sure you'll get through.

I used the buttons...

Really, that suprises me. What time did you run?

I beat s-8 with an auto tranny. it only took me about ten minutes. the secret to the s license is racing the gt allstar race in the pro league. race every race then go try the s license and it will be cake.

i beat that series with an F090/s

so just do the series then the do the test.

it will be cake

infallible, I wish it was a cake for me. The S8 took me allmost 3hr to pass it. I use auto trany. You just have to make the turns as fast as you can with out spining the tires.

Well i've been racing tonz, i mean tonz, and just now tried for the special. yeah i found on the s8 well really with all of them that pumping the gas, if your car spins easy, and pumping the brake seem to work very very good.

so there's another bit for ya. always drift, you beat this liscience by drifting

 

[infallible]

nice car porsche

 

[RockyMaivia]

Hmm, drifting always seems to make my times worse...maybe i just suck at drifting, hehe

 

[GT3 God]

I agree, sliding seems to slow me down in GT3, but never in GT1 or GT2.......

Topic changed from "CANT BEAT S-8".

What in the world? Every test I did took one try for bronze but I guess I am alone....

 

[frentzey]

Just checked the game and the monaco test? That was my first gold! I had a bad lap on my second try and still got 1.3 seconds under gold!

I did the same thing but i kept it in 3rd 4 all the slow corners. At the top of the hill, hug the wall u will save time doing that and not to mention speed and u'll be able to brake easier going into the next turn.

i won silver in it using the buttons
i dont like the analog, it just doesnt have the same speed and response.
