If you have to tabulate your drving skills like Bob's stats, what kind of driver do you think you are? Apart for voting in the poll, post the following stats in a score out of 10. Be sincere :sly:

Braking: If you know the exact points of braking in every turn on every track (and follow them, of course), you'd have a very good mark. But if you stomp your car in the wall, or brake too soon and make the other drivers crash behind you, bad mark :scared:

Cornering: The ability to control the wheel and the throttle in turns. The faster you take them, the more score you'd put. 💡

Accuracy: Do you follow the ideal race line all the time (High score)? Or do you tend to drive where the other cars don't (Low score)? Note that this don't consider alternative lines for overtaking and such.

Strength: Simply the amount of time you can spend driving before getting tired or bored :dopey:

Mental strength: Imagine you've got a faster rival eating your rear. Do you get nervous at the moment and make mistakes more often(Low score)? Or can you hold him off without even sweating (High score)?

Personality: Put what you voted in the poll

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

For example, mine would be:

Braking: 6/10 (I've got some problems at Monza and Tokio, because I tend to brake early and let everybody overtake me :indiff:)

Cornering 8/10 (Except few cars like the Cobra and the Murcielago, I think I control my ride most of the time :sly:)

Accuracy: 9/10 (I've got the ideal lines for almost every track burned in my mind :dunce:)

Strength: 6/10 (The call of the nature is usually too strong for me to resist :ouch:)

Mental strength: 7/10 (I think I can hold any driver for a minute or two before getting nervous)

Personality:: Cool
 
I'm a little debilitated by using a DS3 instead of a wheel, but I think I'm infinitely better than any b-spec driver I've ever seen and will mark myself accordingly.

Braking: 9/10

Cornering: 8/10

Accuracy: 8/10

Strength: 8/10

Mental Strength: 10/10 - I will do all the endurance races myself on GT5, as I did with GT4, including the 24hr Races.

Personality: Very Hot (I believe this is a good personality, as I remain sharp, focused and will take ANY opportunity that arises)
 
Braking: 5/10

Cornering 7/10

Accuracy: 8/10

Strength: 7/10

Mental strength: 8/10

Personality:: Tempered
 
Brakes: 1/10 - I use my opponents bumpers as braking zones
Corners: 2/10 - I usually fly straight into the gravel on harder turns/use the Armco
Accurate: 7/10 - Im pretty consistent
Strength: 4/10 - I can support the weight of the DS3
Mental Strength: 10/10 - I could do this all day and night
Personality: Hot Tempered



Same as my Bob tbh :crazy:
 
Braking: 7/10 terrible with the controller, can't wait until I get my G27 :D

Cornering: 7/10 Once again, hate the controller

Accuracy: 8/10 I think this is a hard thing to rate because some (including me) would argue the best racing line shown in the game (including when to break) is wrong.

Strength: 10/10 I'll drive till my thumbs fall off :D

Mental strength: 8/10 I consider myself a great performer under pressure

Personality: Hot as Hell :trouble:

Great thread, I'm interested to see what people consider themselves
 
Brakes: 7/10

Corners: 8/10

Accurate: 9/10

Strength: 7/10

Mental Strength: 10/10

Yeah, that's a good point. According to GT5 in-game manual, accuracy if for Bob the thing that I explained in the OP. But it isn't the same for humans, as everyone has their own style, and it may change depending of the car as well.
 
Braking: 8/10 (I am mostly good, however I sometimes brake too early

Cornering: 9/10 (I am very quick and precise whilst conering)

Accuracy: 9/10 (Out-in technique never fails)

Strength: 6/10 (In a race)

Mental Strength: 9/10 - (I can calmly fend off an opponent [block])

Personality: Very Hot (I am always sharp and never complacent)
 
Brakes: 7/10

Corners: 9/10

Accurate: 7/10
