Three Hundred Miles Per Hour

[cobra427]

ohhhhh man just if my camera was work'n ... found some new batts ... guess they wernt dead cause the camera still isnt working lol cheap digi cam ... got what i paid for lol ....


i got my game paused at 310mph on that straight away

 

[Octane_Booster]

After coming out of corner two on the test course and just getting out of the tunnel, I noticed that my car would start bouncing. Like it was hitting bumps. Does anyone else have this problem? Does any one know how to fix it? Thanks for your help!

 

[cobra427]

i noticed my minolta do'n that .... usually it would mean your car is lifting and you might need downforce or you could just not be gett'n traction



EDIT! 8:49am


after many hours of working and help from a fellow compeditor i have done it and will get a pic today if i can find my old camera ... you dont have to add it if you dont want to if i cant provide proof but only thing that matters to me is i know i did it

354.43 mph in my Minolta

The TVR Speed 12 will be catagorised as a racing car. It always has been a racing car here and nobody else has ever had a problem with that. It is simply too powerful in it's modified state to be classed as a road car. I repeat, the TVR Speed 12 will be catagorised as a racing car.

Your a IDIOT, HOW many times do I have to PROVE ITS A PRODUCTION car, are you going to Call the SRT-10 a "Race" Car because its too power full??? Nooooo, what happened is someone CONFUSED the Speed 12 for the Cebera Speed 12 (I know you dont have the brains DE to figure this out, but whatever)

I have noticed several unorthodox things about Rac3rX's run by simply looking at the video picture, for one he is going backwards around the circuit, and for another he is not using Top Speed Run, but he is actually in a race of some form and has deliberately ran the car out of fuel in order to make it lighter... Whilst all this is very clever I'm not entirely sure if it's allowable because any runs done in this way will have no means of verification... Going backwards is not allowed, and the runs mustbe done in Max Speed run at the Test Course if they want to be put on the leaderboard, because any other method is not accurate enough. (^^There you go Ozmac 👍 ) Rather than the "3mph discount on claims" idea, (nice one though!) all runs made going backwards will be disallowed completely, as will any runs not made in Max Speed run mode.

First off It WAS Done at the "Speed Test" BUT that is irrelevant, as it IS NOT STATED IN POST ONE the Perameters your trying to put forward in this lame post. You would think after watching the car start turn arround and give the run, that there were no other cars, My fuel level was Full ( The NoS went Down Dumass not the fuel)

Your just a Sad pathetic person looking for Excuses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry I was never clearer on this whole thing with reversing, I did not think I needed to be as the current world land speed record (hail Couttsey) was done properly, i.e. forwards around the track, in Max Speed Run.

Sorry I didnt read the part in your first post where you specified it was to be done on the speed test course, and what direction was important, IT simply states "TOP SPEED" what about this are you too stupid to understand?????

What a ****ing loser you are, its a ****ing JOKE!

Congratulations to all who have improved their speeds with the TVR, maybe it has more in itself than we thought back in September

Ummm Are you Retarded (I HAD MY CEBERA AT 304 IN APRIL MORONNNNNNNN!!!!!!

I conclude with

There are none Blinder then those who refuse to see and DE your as blind as a Bat!!!!

Thats the begining of the wheelie trick, lowering the DF on the front will reduce the resistance lift the front end up.

 

[Dark Elite]

cobra427, there is an edit button multiple posts aren't required! Never mind, it doesn't matter much. Huge congratulations on that speed, it's pretty amazing to dethrone couttsey after that length of time but I can't take it unless you can prove it by video, sorry. That's the rule as far as record breaking is concerned so...

Octane_Booster, all that tells you is that you're using the right settings this is commonly referred to as the 'Churchill Effect', as the car nods up and down this is perfectly normal with soft suspension spring rates at high speeds. The only way to stop it is to harden the springs, but I'm sure you know that there'll be a huge speed loss if you do! It's unavoidable really.

Rac3rX. I do not enjoy having to report posts to the moderators, but that is exactly what I have just had to do. I have been perfectly reasonable towards you, and so has everybody else and you still have to insult me constantly with incorrect facts. I have sent you a personal message asking you to either be courteous or leave us in peace, but it seems you are incapable of either.

I'm sorry to everybody else for letting this type of thing flood our thread.

[Rac3rX]

Although I have stopped trying for speed in this car now I've hit my ultimate target, I have no doubt that it can do more if pushed hard enough. And I also believe that it is not the sole member of the select group of cars from this game that can exceed 300mph. So now I form the Three Hundred Mile Per Hour club, the megacar group from GT4. Note that no rules apply as far as tuning goes, except using the wheelie glitch from GT3, just use any means of modification to make your car do the big three-zero-zero. This is my first settings/race report, so any critical advice is welcome. Still more welcome are your stories of how you got your car to hit this massive speed, so that the Three Hundred Mile Per Hour Club can grow to show the kings of speed and their, well not drivers, but pilots!

Heres a Quote form your Post 1


As I see here your only specification was No wheelies.

Where are all the other specifications you come up with???? Or are they created After the Fact you were proven wrong on so many occasions?

Dude all you have been is ignorently rude and a Ass twords me, Report whatever you want, YOUR THE ONE WITH A HARD TIME SWALLOWING THE TRUTH.

Get over it.

 

[Dark Elite]

To be honest Rac3rX, I'm slightly past caring what you say, you are very clearly in the wrong (somehow I doubt anyone will contradict me) and are doing yourself no favours at all. I did not in fact state any specific rules aside from no glitching the game in the first post, however what I said was by no means set in stone and liable to change. The rules I am setting are one hundred per cent fair to all and are by no means being used against anybody.

So far as I can tell I have only been proved wrong on one occasion, and that was when couttsey broke 350mph in the 88C-V which I thought was impossible. Yes it is perfectly true that some rules are being made up on the spur of the moment because I can't thing of everything in the first post, nobody is perfect. If you like you can check the first post in ten minutes when I have edited it to suit you.

[Rac3rX]

Here is MY first Post in this Thread

Ive gotten My Speed 12 & Toyota Supra past 300mph no wheelie about 6 months ago, bolth Street cars. However Iwasnt the first to break 300, I did use my own settings to do so. I was the first to break 310mph NO wheelie & set the Bar at just over 350mph, & First to Break 380mph with a wheelie. Click here for 304mph Speed 12 Settings

The Minolta Ive Gotten into 330mph No wheelie

GT-one Ive gotten 350mph No wheelie 380mph + with a wheelie

Just to set the record straight

All setting Pics and Proof in the Link in my sig.

Here are DE's replies

Rac3rX, we heard/read that the first time. However, the Speed 12 is not a street car, it is a racing car. The Toyota Supra is a street car but video proof will be needed for that as it is very much tried and tested by a lot of people. You are by no means the first to break 310mph, or even 380 by glitching. The 297 Lowizle mentioned was not for the Speed 12, in fact I think he ignored your post.

330mph in the 88C-V is a long way off the Lord God couttsey's record. 350 in the GT-One will need video proof because the car is extremely liable to wheelie. If you'd read the full thread that post might have been of more use.

(Audi R8 still at 326, no testing time !)

DE Post #393


Ah, now this is where the posts start to lose respect and friendly competition...
Rac3rX. Number one, the Cerbera Speed 12 is not catagorised as a road car by us because it was not designed originally for road use.
Number two, shouting about your achievements, whether true or not, is neither big nor clever. Nor is it helpful in any way whatsoever.
Thirdly, I care not what you have done on two wheels, I doubt anyone else does. Wheelies are completely forbidden.
Fourth (this is a hell of a long list for one reply), hurling insults around is also neither big nor clever. Calm down and be considerate before you type, no matter how good you think you are.

I don't like talking to anybody like this, but sometimes I have to.

DE Post #398


Rac3rX I don't care how much you shout or insult, the TVR Speed 12 car in the game was never made for the road and so it is not a road car. Nice to see you've calmed down a bit.

Leo, go for it with the Supra we still need a confirmed 300mph run with it! The 297mph wall will be overcome with the Esprit fairly easily!

To all who got 300mph in the Speed 12, especially Lycanthor as it's not a great first time car, congratulations! I still haven't done it because I class it as a waste of money but if I see a V8S at a used car garage I'll buy that and win the Speed 12 with it !

I think it would be quite helpful if we allowed to other members of the thread to decide who is in the wrong here, in other words who should back down, who should bow out and apologise.

What about the SRT-10 with 1028hp???? Is That a race car too, it is if we go by your rules.

And you wanted Proof I smashed your puny record 6 months ago

Click here for 333mph+ on 4 wheels and 365mph on 2 Minolta Settings

Use the settings you will get that speed.

Ohhh and the GT-One cant do 350mph on 4 wheels? You want Video Proof?????

Ive read your First Post and Previously Quoted it, this is where I find you make No mention of ANY rules other then the fact there is no wheelies, and Secondly you DO NOT reserve the right to add or change rules down the road, as you clame you now have done AFTER THE fact your Records have been beaten 4 months BEFORE you even Posted this thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Next time do a proper search

What havnt you been proven wrong on???

Rac3rX - Stop the personal attacks now! Dark Elite has been perfectly reasonable towards you, yet all you resort to is name calling. You can't seem to have a reasonable conversation with someone.

Consider this a public warning.

I know...I said My Bad.

Sory For Calling you Names DE, I was out of line.

 

[Tornado]

If Toronado is reading this, and as he and I are involved in a bit of good fun with the Lotus for road car top speed, I'd be interested to hear how he does his runs. I'm hoping that it's a standing start, going the 'normal' anti-clockwise route, like a gentleman should.

Yeah, I run it just within the spaces of the Top Speed length. That's the only reason that piece of crap Chaparral wouldn't go 300 with my settings. It went 300 going backwards, but not forwards. I also agree with the gearing thing. Going fast has nothing to do with gears (I even tried the Chappy out using two of the gears), but more about the power band.

Then, once Given PROOF the Cebera is a Production Car you STILL cant get over it.

Even if the Speed 12 was a production car (which it technically is, even if it literally is just a race car without a wing), the readout chart of production/concept/racing/tuner is not god. If it was, then the DeLorean would be a production car, the NSX-R LM would be a concept car, and the RUF's would be tuner cars.
Read this thread completely. It is generally thought that the Speed 12 isn't a real production car in GT4. Besides, who the hell cares if its a production car or not. It doesn't hold the record (the Esprit Sport 350 and Minolta do) for either, so what's the point?
Leonidae, keep trying with the Supra. You can do it.

Yes Leo, do indeed keep trying with that Supra. I presume you haven't done it yet, as you would've posted already in the glory of it all!

Rac3rX, apology accepted. I'm sorry if you don't agree with the Speed 12's catagorisation, but that's just what we class it as. I don't have it confused with any other car, I know which model it is but it was originally designed as a race car if I recall correctly, and thus it should be classed as a race car here. The same rule is applied to the Nissan R390 Road Car, which is just the R390 GT1 Race Car without Nissan decals on it!

DE

 

[FastEddie12]

I know that Rac3rX is seen as the bad boy around here, but I'd like to commend his open attitude to others and the help and encouragement he gives in posting his settings and the like. It's unfortunate that he and DE (all hail, thread leader) do not see eye to eye, but I would like to state that, personal insults aside (which have been apologised for), I think he is a welcome presence on this thread. But I hope he can accept the referee's decision (ie Dark Elite's) IS final.

Please guys, get along: this thread will be superb if you're both on the same team....

 

[Earth]

Welcome Earth. (Were you just surfing or did you follow my links?) Well done on your GT-One run, that is the fastest run in that car, if you can post a picture or video to prove it, preferably video for the car's wheelie tendancy.. Posting settings is pretty unreliable. I guess from the accuracy you were in Max Speed run, but which way were you going?

DE

I followed the links in your sig 👍

I dont have any way of proving my speed, except for maybe take a picture of the TV and send it to the computer via the scanner. But I dont have a camera. Is there anyother way I can prove my speed? I have no reason to lie, but that dont matter because....

....I went backwards on top speed run.

I asked a page or two ago if going backwards was legal or illegal and nobody answered so I thought it didnt matter. I went backwards, saw the speedometer hit 349, then turned around and did 2-3 laps going the right way and it said 349.15 but that dont matter now so...

I understand and agree with having participants use the maxspeed run and allowing them to go only forward.

I'll use the same setup and see what I can get going the right way. I'm guessing it will be around 345. I just put all the suspension stuff all the way down, downforce all the way down and tuned the gears so 5th almost hits the limiter at 290mph around the corner to keep my momentum and I hit the nitro and flip it into 6th when I'm almost on the straightaway. It never tried to make a wheelie because I have no downforce. Now that Minolta is a super unstable monster. So much untapped power there. I hit 343 going backwards last night - on accident. But the car's nose was trying to lift up... 👎

How fast is the Escudo? Has anyone tried it yet? It was the only 300mph car in GT3. I wonder how it will do with nos in GT4.

Also, how about open run top speeds like in a race? I can imagine 390mph in a perfectly timed draft.

 

[Dark Elite]

Eddie, I agree with that. I know that Rac3r is a good driver and an even better tuner, so he'd be a credit to have on the team. Have you had any more speed runs recently?

Earth, that's a shame because it was a nice speed. It's a shame you can't give verification either, because posting settings only goes so far towards confirming... Oh well. Keep trying anyway, maybe I can find an exception and post you up as unconfirmed 👍
As for open runs in races, I think it's possible, but we'd need to set up a different catagory for it or something. The only problem is that it'd be a bit inaccurate and would need videos to proove, but it would be very cool!

DE

 

[FastEddie12]

[Rac3rX]

Im glad weve come to terms.

I got my capture card up, so I took the GT one Back to the Speed test to give you your forward lap. As it turns out going forward gave me a great exiting speed for the straight and I was able to pull off a 348.20, before getting cut by the Finish line.

Here is the Video Proof needed.
