Post any oddities you've noticed in GT 2

Well, since that's a timed race the result is not all that odd.

Did that...what am I missing?

FWD cars lack torque steer!

Oh, and you can't forget the Taurus SHO '99 race mod. Turns your 370 HP FWD into a Daytona Stock Car!

well i was typing in a hurry and forgot to say that the lap number was like this

1/99 (in the first lap)

that means you have to complete 99 laps to finish and that's what makes it odd.

 

[risingson77]

Why assign a time limit then? I think you're just supposed to run as many laps as you can in the prescribed time.

you are right, but they shouldn't have put a lap limit.

did any one here did 99+ laps in less than 2 hours ( just to see if it is realy a limit, or just a glitch).

The Micra 1.0 turbo is very fast. not just fast, very fast.

Try to give the BMW 740i new wheels. it says "Your car cannot participate in this race."

How fast?

 

[Race Idiot]

In the Japanese version of GT2 the 'Viper festival of speed' is called the 'Viper festibal of speed'. I wonder if a festibal is so much more exiting than a fesivial that the organisers got so worked up and misspelled festival. Or it just could be dodgy Japanese English.



I'll shut up now.

 

[Joey]

You just spelled organizers with two ss.
Since we can obviously attribute that to your Anglo-ness, I'm betting on the Japanese just not knowing the difference. Although, the B is right next to the V on this keyboard...

Ive noticed this in particular with the '67 vette and charger. In the garage both these cars have huge, good looking wheels. Put a mod in the vette, it has humungous wheels. But take them to a track, and the wheels are mini style - with huge spaces between wheel and fender. Makes em looks horrid.

 

[W16 QUAD TURBO]

did you ever use the E-brake in an impreza b22 or a skyline 280 mr, it feels like it effects all the wheels instead of being to the rear only (like all other cars).

Talentless: How fast?

I remember having serious problems catching up with those on a manufacturers race with a modded late 90s micra, I'm talking about the 80's 1.0t.. But exactly how fast they were I have no idea, I just remeber I got surprised.

Hmmm, depends on the version perhaps? The car's title changed from 3000GT to GTO...sweet.

 

[risingson77]

I'll check again.

 

[Pupik]

Here's a pic. It's a '95 3000GT with a race mod.

 

[risingson77]

I think I had a slightly different car...maybe that's it.

 

[Impreza STi]

Ah yes, that happens with MOST of the AWD's, the differential in the center is 100% LSD.

I was hoping you could customize the limited-slipness in GT3, but nope, not this time...

Also, don't forget that you can't roll any cars. I tried, believe me. THey hit like 60 degrees over and stop rolling, like they got training wheels or something...

just to see how insanely fast you could get your cars going by playing with suspension, transmission, tires...
Hell, I'd have loved drag racing.

That's just because 3000GT was GTO, until they had to change the name because of Pontiac threatening copyright infringement.

Hey All,

How about this little tweak:

There's no stationary engine sound in GT2. When you stand still there's nothing.....

Did anyone notice this before?

Bram

 

[Pupik]

The description of the Skyline 280MR tells you it's rear-wheel drive, but the car is 4WD, just like most of the other Skylines.

its very quiet

 

[Sharky.]

My Mini Cooper 1.3 has no spring rate!!! So that would mean the car has no springs!!!

 

[cerbera]

In time trials my cars will do things that I didn't do, and wreck and be stuck,then I hit the R button to go to the next lap and it will be ok.

 

[cerbera]

When I'm racing two player, Myself being the #1 player,my tach bleeds as I rev it up the first time.

 

[Neon_SRT]

the most weirdest thing that happened to me was when a ford Ka(a stock one) was able to beat me in a race in Laguna seca, in my 406 hp impreza!

Ummmmm.....the 427 cobra has a deep burble at idle, which is the most awesome sound. Almost all muscle cars with a racing muffler is the same way. by the way, does anyone hate that annoying sound a Superbird makes with a racing muffler? And my contribution: Check out the Suzuki Cappuchino in the Suzuki used lot. The name is spelled two different ways and the last line in the bio says,"front drive, rear engine car." Is that possible?

 

[Impreza STi]

Yea, it would be the reverse of a Front Engine Rear Drive car, but with really bad traction!
