An evolution of the Top Speed of GT5 Cars v2, this thread is for top speeds following the 2.08 update, which messed with quite a few of the previous results. Some were slower using the same settings, but much faster following a little tweaking, and so the former results became somewhat pointless.
So, this new thread is updated with only results posted from the 2.08/2.09 tests.
Googledocs version 2.08/9 Table of Results
To submit data, follow these easy steps:
1) Fully tune the car you wish to collect the top speed of.
2) Put 400km on the car (roughly 250+ miles) to break the engine in, and then oil change it.
3) Bring it to Route X DLC track, it should show up as "Speed testing" in GT Life, and run your car from line to line (0-10,000m). Please only submit results from the standing 10km runs, although anecdotal banked runs, full lap and drafted speeds may be left as additional comments.
4) Check to see if you've beat any of the current top speed records in the link above.
5) If you have beat a record, or would like to post one on a new car, please submit your max speed obtained during the run.
Previously we have asked for PP levels, wing data and such, but given that these are largely unchanged I have decided to omit them from this spreadsheet, as they already exist in the two previous incarnations of the spreadsheets.
New features in this spreadsheet include:
- Speed values can now be submitted using either MPH or KMH, as I have put in formulas to calculate in either direction
- Speed difference from previous update now recorded - compare how much the update has ruined your cars! (or how much faster some of them are)
I've already filled around 70 records, so there's a lot more to go with this, so grab out those cars and see what they'll do now!
