Possibly the greatest victory I'll ever have.

Well done in any car. I love driving the Green Hell, but can't for the life of me break that 7:00 mark. I have come close, in much faster cars than that Audi, but still can't master that beast of a track. I find myself permanently devoted to the Nordschleife in hopes of finally getting the hang of it. Some day... some day...
Cheers to you.

Keep trying dude, you get better and better with experience, trust me. When I started out the Nurburgring scared me :lol: After a while it becomes second nature and a sub 7 minute time comes naturally. :)
 
Thanks... I think that I will try running some seemingly slower cars in my line-up more often... probably finally pick up that Audi wagon... and try it that way. Maybe a Zonda R is not the way to learn the track. Too many wipe-outs.
I did thoroughly enjoy that Lupo challenge. I need to try out all of my cars on the track to find the one most suited to my driving...

By the way - does anyone on here know where to find my statistics on these courses? Does the game keep a record of my lap times on each track in the save file so that I can see my improvement? I can't seem to find it, but i know the game saves everything.
 
nice, i was racing my bob on daytona and he won by .021sec! i hadn't been paying attention, but then when i looked on the last lap i flipped to see how close they were! AHHH it was epic

Yeah I really wouldn't recommend something like a Zonda at all if you're starting. Something you enjoy driving. If you enjoy the car it will be much easier for you.
 
Nice one! Here's my sweetest victory:

Had a blast on Cape Ring earlier with that Audi. All I did was change the oil, using no driving aids. Absolutely fantastic car (wagon?) to drive and belies it's size.

A diamond tomo 👍
 
My biggest craping myself moment was the nascar championship. i won by 0.052. i thought my heart was going to jump out my mouth.

Same here, I won that Daytona race by about .01x
Got my PSN trophy on that race.
I swear if that finish line was just a foot further I would have lost.
 
Looks like quite the boat but I saw one in the UCD as I read this and bought it.

Mine tunes to 633hp, maybe you need a oil change lol
 
Haha, thanks. I've loved this car since GT4 simply because it looked cool but I never drove it because I hated the driving on GT4 :lol: But I decided to drive it on GT5 and DAYUM I love it :lol:

633BHP? Then again I HAVE put nearly 1000 miles on it in like 3 or 4 days... xD
 
ok I tried it aswell in a modded M3 GTR'03.
I didn't fully tune it as I wanted it to be more challenging. No weight reduction has been made and I could have upgraded the engine further, but decided to keep it below 500 hp.

364 kw equals 488 bhp.
Weight is 1350 kg.

and yeah those pics have an extremely poor quality; but when i was heading to the cam the result board already disappeared.
 
Wait till you get to the formula one races, they are hard! I won all of them except monaco (cote d'azur), now i officially hate that track.

I had the exact same problem, won them all and thought Monaco would be a walk in the park from other race/sims but with the default FGT setup it spins the tires so much into and out of slow corners that eventually the AI just crashed and spun me and I finished last from being so shaken up... I'm guessing if I had looked for a better FGT low speed setup I would have been ok, but I'm not going to redo that FGT championship for a while.
 
you are a beast on the ring. gonna try to beat your time with an equal modded m3 gtr an will upload the replay if i can. 👍

Fully customizable suspension
differential
best clutch
best flywheel
racing soft tires
carbon driveshaft
exhaust manifold
sports catalytic converter
intake manifold
racing airfilter
engine stage 2
sports ECU

thats the mods I used.
 
So I tried the RS4 online like some guy said
Averaged a 6:53 laptime
And DOMINATED anything that went near it
F40s, minolta Toyotas, and an X2010 (Granted it was probably driven by a blind person because they sucked.)

Had a LOT of fun with this thing.
I highly recommend you guys try it out.
 
Did you get a message on the radio telling you that Alonso was faster than you? :sly:

Apologies if some of you don't watch F1...

"... Acknowledge that you receive this message ..." B-spec Bob plants the throttle and continues blocking.
 
To Hell with the ZZII being the best bang for your buck - This is way better and also cheaper I think ;)

how much was the RS4? The ZZII costs 60k Cr only and I just ran a 6:26 on Nurburgring.
Dont know how you figured the RS4 would be better though, it is way too heavy and big.

I think it was 34k. I can't really remember. I'm probably really wrong there.

I didn't, I found out pretty much by pure luck :lol:
I just bought it because I'e always liked the Audi's when they had that sort of front.
 
These kind of things puts a smile on your face. Nice one! Also, that bothers me that that BHP cant be changed to HP.
 
Funniest victory i had was racing online yesterday against an M3 GTR, Z4M Coupe, Skyline R34 etc and I beat them all using a Range Rover Stormer plus we were all restricted to 404 hp. I though it would drive like a 2 tonne elephant but it goes like stink.
