one thing, this can only happen with a Escudo you win from winning the Rally mode in Sim Mode!!!! but with that one, i got 294MPH and can go faster! 294MPH: when going behind a car, and 283MPH: behind no just crusin alone. So yea beat the Rally mode in Sim mode, give it a Stage 4 turbo, AND AN OIL CHANGE!!! Stage 4 Turbo: 90,000Credits, and OIL CHANGE:50Credits(i think). and it will have 1881HP!!!! :eek: TRY IT!
 
Hmm, must be a diff type of Escudo on beating that rally thing, mine can only got 207 MAX!!!!!! with the 90,000 turbo and trick oil change. But I bought mine so maybe there's a diff. Oh well, I'm jealous!!

Duh! Full Racing Tranny and set the auto setting to 48, or widest, and then when you get 1881HP you'll get to 283MPH, and when behind someone, dont know what it is called, you can go 294 and higher!
 
My Escudo has been Top Speed tested at 302MPH, and when behind someone I once went 318mph, without wheelie trick of course. make sure down force is lowest and camber and toe are 0 and lowered to the max.
 
I honestly dont understand how it went slower?

Ok, Downforce is lowest. Camber and toe are 0

You have super softs, although this shouldnt make too much of a difference.

Lowered to the max,

make sure your gears are set so that 5 and 6 are far enough apart so that it hits the MAJOR torque band that is between 6,000rpm and 7,800rpm roughly, if they are too close, when it shifts from 5 to 6 you will overshoot the power curve and be at around 7500rpm and not have as much power to hit 300mph.

Also, I assume you are running the max speed test in reverse so that you can do atleast a full lap to get your speed up? If I recall, it will break 300mph just before you have to start turning again. So if you run the Max speed test in the normal direction then there is no way you will hit 300mph.


One other thing: it should be marginally easier for you, because my Escudo now only has 1843hp due to running long races on Test Course and Super Seedway.
 
Thx hoopride2002. And civic, can you give me your specific settings and parts and that second paragraph you typed..... i did not understand a damn word you said its like talking in french!

Hey, GTS-R_MAN... I just broke 300mph (no wheelie) with the ESCUDO using the advice on this thread. I've been playing GT3 for about 8 months now, and never got above 285 or so (never spent too much time until now). Anyway, here are the settings I have on the ESCUDO (the one awarded for all Rally golds).

ESCUDO
+ Turbo Kit/Stage 4
+ Oil Change
0.0 mi, 1881 hp

Suspension:
Ride Height: Front = 75mm; Rear = 75mm
Camber Angle: Front = 0.0; Rear = 0.0

Drivetrain (here are the changes I made, in the order I made them):
Gear Ratio: Auto Setting = 48; 6th = 0.875; Final = 2.425

Stability:
Downforce: Front = 0.38; Rear = 0.60
ASM = 7
TCS = 2
VCD = 25% Front

All other settings were left alone.

With these settings, you won't "overshoot the power curve". Actually, you'll undershoot it if anything (between 5th and 6th). In English, or, better yet, in playing terms... When the car is getting near 220mph, it will start approaching the 5th to 6th gear shift point for automatic trannys. If you race automatic, letting the car shift too soon won't give the car enough momentum for 6th gear to really kick in. So, just hold down L2 until you see 230 or so, and that should be enough for 6th gear's teeth to bite.

Doing so, you can take the first turn at around 270, coming out anywhere from 270 to 285 (sometimes higher). I managed to print 305 running solo, with a best lap of 1.19.650 (Simulation Mode/Home/Run & Setting/Test Course)... faster times have been run...

Anyway, give it a try, and let us know how things go! Have a great drive everyone!

PS - REMEMBER TO SAVE YER SETTINGS IF YOU MAKE CHANGES(defaults especially).

Hey, I am glad someone could figure out what I was trying to say.
 
i can go 302 mph on my escudo.
once i was 305mph but i was playing with the settings and for error save it,since that i can't put the car back to 305mph again. :cry: :mad: :cry:
