I think im going to go for the non nos record now. That seem a little more in reach than the other records. Does anyone know what it is. If its still Rac3rX's 320 something, I think I might be able to
 
After about four hours of runs I just increased my 88-CV (88C-V? can never remember...) record to 365.75 MPH:sly:. I'll post the vid up in the next few days, as i'm pretty busy at the moment. This I time it felt like having to re-invent the wheel, with extremely slow progress. But what the hell, 0.25 off 366 is good enough for me:). Probably be taking a break for a while while I work on using all six gears push up to 366 which seems a little optimistic at this point. Good luck Opendriver, with your pursuit of another Rac3rX record:tup:. Great speed Viper, gotta love the Cien...

This thread sounds like fun. I never played GT4 enough to hit 300mph yet so I definetly want to try this. I will go over the rules and see what I can do about getting a car to go this 300+.
I am going to dust GT4 off and play for at least 1 day this weekend. Hmm what car to start with. :confused: Mabey the 69 Camaro for the heck of it? I dont think it has the aero to hit 300 but I could try for fun.


go for it bro 👍
 
well, I don't have slow settings available for 300ZX, so you have to start from a scratch, unfoprtunately.. and my sister borrowed my PS2, so I can't send you my record settings either. :ouch:
 
thanks FormulaGT, i don't really like the gearbox, and i have some problem with the traction.....maybe i can increase it! we'll see, and nice speed with the Minolta.

Good luck opendriver!

and I'm out from the chase for unknown period of time, since my PS2 got stolen from my friends place..:ouch: :grumpy: :guilty: :(
 
Am I correct when I ask if we have 1 lap at the test course to set these 300mph+ speeds? Just want to make sure I follow the rules when I attempt this over the weekend.

Yep. The rules in Post #1 outline most of this, you have to do it in Top Speed Test, so you won't actually get a full lap.

Nice going with the Cien, Viper, reckon you can push it all the way to Sucahyo's record?

and i have a even faster R8-speed, only has to be checked by D.E., but it must be legal!!

I just tried my R8 out for the first time in over 3 months and had 357 but I dont think it was legal. Just for fun, I messed with the down force and got 365 out of it. THAT was nowhere near to legal. Ill see what i can stir up....the pot is brewing!!!! :trouble:

So you wheelied the entire way huh :lol:
 
Hey guys,:cheers: sorry I'm off topic here, but this is more for Dark Elite, I think this thread should become a whole forum now, it possibly has become the most frequented thread in GTP, every time I go into the tunnings and settings forum I see new posts on this baby. When I say "forum" I mean, having a thread for only 300MPH set-ups for various cars, another for the Leaderboard, another for reports on different runs...etc. I love the intro (first post) and congrats to you Dark Elite, because without a speed challenger like you, many people wouldn't have waken up that hunger and curiosity for speed that they have now (including me)...personally I think this is the best thread of GTP and hope it keeps getting better ;)



Ciao...
 
I just tried it with the 69 Camaro. I had 514hp and I only hit 219.46mph in 5th gear. While that is quite fast, it is not fast enough for this thread.
Time to try something a little faster. :sly:

Not to knock you or anything but that thing has a lot more in it. At least another 30 mph or so.....

Keep in mind this is my first attempt at trying 300mph.
I just tried the Nissan R92CP and hit 314.57mph. I know its not record breaking but at least I am part of the 300mph club now. :sly: My car got slower and slower each run and kept loosing hp.
I dont know at all what to do for settings. I tried a few things. I turned off all the traction control and took off the downforce. The driving aids are also off.
 
GUESS WHOS BACK!!!
when i said i was gonna break the record i ment it.
so please, update me a little with the current record. thanks. (with and without NOS)

PS: i can see theres another Italian on this thread.
 
Finally! My new revolutionized 6 gear Minolta brings me past 366 MPH with 366.19 MPH:sly:!. My God, I didn't think it was possible. I guess this shows that you should always all of what your given...:dunce:. I'll post the vid shortly.
Well done CAMAROBOY69, the R92CP is a 350+ car, so keep with it!

Congrats on your 366.19! Thanks for the postive feedback. I probably wont come back to this thread much because it really takes a lot of time and adjustments. You guys have a lot more knowledge about this than I do. I could sit here for an entire night and not even get close to the record. Congrats to those at the top of the Hall of Fame. You truly deserve it. 👍
But here is one last one for the heck of it. Mercedes CLK-GTR 305.83mph on 2nd attempt. :)
 
Hope to see you again in this thread again someday Camaro, at least you've posted some respectable speeds (ANYTHING above 300 is respectable:) 👍 )

Just broke my last speed with 366.31, maybe the GT1 doesn't have such a stranglehold on the rest of the pack after all...

*blushes* Thanks :)
That's something I hadn't thought about, it might make things a little easier, but to be honest I like things the way they are - I could make an entirely seperate forum for all this, seperate from GTP, but I think it's good the way it is: it means everything is all here (assuming you can find it :p) and I can keep it all under control, most of the time! :dopey:
But all the same, it's a good suggestion. 👍

That's a nice pair of speeds from you, CAMAROBOY, and can I just say that those screenshots are superb! Some of the best I've seen! And as FormulaGT says, we look forward to seeing you again - You'll be on the leaderboard in a few ;)

Speaking of seeing people again, welcome back Lsaporiti! As always, follow my signature link to get yourself back in the know with the records :)

FormulaGT, good to see your near-unstoppable 88C-V coming back to rip holes in the GT-One leaders! Downloading your video now 👍

EDIT - Legitimate run, great job! :)

congrats Camaroboy and FormulaGT for your records!! come back whenever you want Camaroboy.....

good luck with the R8 opendriver, i wheelied mine to 366, but my current one is legal..........waiting for D.E. *gg*

viper
 
It's well deserved indeed, you're almost 12mph ahead of the great Couttsey in his record-breaking 88C-V, and giving the GT-Ones some serious worries! :sly:
I think this may become a battle between FormulaGT and Opendriver, to see who can push closest to the World Record, until one of you breaks it! Keep it going 👍 👍

(Viper, I'm sorry, I seem to be horrendously busy recently, but if I can find any time at all I'll check your speed today :guilty: )

DE
 
don't worry D.E., contact me when you've checked!

i think there will be an exciting fight between the Minolta and the GT-One, can't wait to see who's the first to break the record......

viper
 
I myself cant stand the minolta. It's a while new ball game to me, im used to tunning the GT1 back in the GT3 days:sly:

Ill try again on monday to see if I can better my record

congrats to everyone that got up on the leader board!:)
