That's actually pretty silly, as qualifying can have numerous set-up and testing advantages.

On the other hand, I can see your point, as qualifying adds to the mileage of your car and hence, it takes less time for the oil light to come on...

Masterblaster, you must have a real short attention span if you are being serious...

Take meds for it, you have a point 2 B made ?

My PS2 was probably none the better after being left on for a whole night! :cheers:

So in the endurances, what do you do MasterBlaster? I dreaded that 2 hour Rome Endurance...that's a race i never want to do again...sorry bout what i said before then :cheers:

That's true .

Anyway , I skip qualifying because ;

1. I usually run my cars stock , or depending on the competition , with minor mods into it . I want some tight , real close action with GT3's AI , so I prefer not to run qualifying .

2. For some reason , I don't tune my cars , so the testing parts during the qualifying goes out of the window. I'm not good at it and I'm still learning the tricks of the trade

Oh, Gone Like the Wind was torture...seriously. Worse than 10 hours on Super Speedway...dear God that was horrible...

Why 10 hours on Super Speedway? :odd:

Oh, and Like the ChickenWing(tm) was actually fun for me.

Vasco · Apr 11, 2003

I was just using it as an example, i have never done 10 hours on Super Speedway, never hope to either.

Figures with your intellectual level :mischievous:

I actually prefer 15-20 lap races.. Seems like a nice way to spend 30-40 minutes (depending on the track of course)..

Still - I fear the Endurance races.. Especially if I'm gonna take them in one seating... (note to self: Must get better co-driver)

And Seattle is the perfect length

How about 20 laps on the Test Track in an un-moddded Vitz :mad:

/F

under18carbon · Apr 11, 2003

2 laps in a Vitz around Test Course would be enough to kill me .

Do you think one could actually die from boredom if one took the Vitz to the test track ?

You might not die, but I will.

( No disrespect to the :bowdown:

Pitz

Flerbizky · Apr 11, 2003

Nobody's dissing the Pitz while I'm around :mischievous:

I just want them to bring back the Saxo for GT4

/F

under18carbon · Apr 11, 2003

Which Saxo?
Citroen Saxo?

I've never heard about this car. If it was in GT2 , I don't know because I've never owned a PS1 and GT2. Tell me more about it.

Flerbizky · Apr 11, 2003

Yeah the Citroen Saxo... It's a crappy little car and I should know as we have one

Still it would be fun to race (a modded) version of the car you own in real life

And it is in the Car list for GT2..

This isn't ours, but I think it looks nice. http://www.tuningcenter.com/articles/internautes/tcc/argent.htm and we just needed something to get us from a-b.. I do my racing on my bike

edit: The French are sick... Jeez http://www.saxosport.com/en/galerie/ Bottom Left....

under18carbon · Apr 12, 2003

Oh OK. Thanks for the links .

There's a Citroen Saxo WRC rally car too, right ? It would be a nice touch if they put this car in GT4. The current number of rally cars in GT3 isn't that much .

Flerbizky · Apr 12, 2003

I don't think that there's a Saxo WRC. I've never heard of it anyway and Google comes up with some weird links.. I do know, however, that there's a Saxo Kitcar which could be mistaken for a WRC car... Nonetheless underpowered compared to the real WRC cars...

Cheers...

ving · Apr 12, 2003

yeah the saxo rally car (kit car) is actually very competitive in its category and not at all slow. its only a 1.6 i think or 1.4.
but it still has plenty of get up n' go.

yeah i dint intent the boring tracks to be included in the thread... oh well, whats done is done

under18carbon · Apr 12, 2003

Oops. Sorry for the mistake. I meant the Saxo kit car, but somehow the WRC word got stuck in my head :odd:

Vasco · Apr 12, 2003

The Saxo competes in the Super 16 WRC event...(only for 1600cc engines)...It's kind of like a junior WRC. But if there is a Citroen Super 16 car in GT4, it will be the new C2...which is the replacement taking place next year i believe.

ving · Apr 13, 2003

the c2 rally car looks sweet

Cap'n Jack · Oct 12, 2003

It depends on my mood. I gt bored after 2 laps of the test corse coz Its so boring staying on just one speed to whole race!

Der Alta · Oct 12, 2003

I enjoy the PD cup races in a car that requires you to pit on a regular occasion.

The Enduro's are fun (when it's close) but for the most part I prefer 10-20 laps.

AO

kragbees · Oct 13, 2003

I prefer the most to be 5 laps ... just enough to catch up if you stuff up ... and just enough not to get thumb aches and moaning girlfriends !

JoniK · Oct 24, 2003

It all depends on my mood. Sometimes a 2 lap race can be boring to the death and sometimes I can enjoy a 20 lap race (PD cup).

number of laps...
