This car is so broken. Feels like a grippy hovercraft.
aaarrrrgggghhhhhh!!!!! 1;29,112 cant get any faster!!! time to learn how to use the analogue controls I think! x and square just aint cutting it!!! lol
Just got an 1.26.9 after 4 laps and got gold.
Its an easy job to do but i got screw three times by my game kept staying at the camera angle where you start the event and not giving me my cash.
Nevermind it work this time
1:27.3 after 3 laps and i dont care what people think. gold is gold, job done
I’m gonna take a different spin on this from all the others talking about how great they are and challenging each other on the playground…
This round “almost” made me pull out the wheel because of the way the car handles. I’m not a DS3 guy as most of you know by now. I am also not a Brands Hatch guy by any stretch of the imagination.
So I put in a really crappy just barely gold lap and left the track. That’s enough effort from me until maybe the final round.
ah!!!
tomorrow will be the project cars release!!!
so i think gt academy will wait …
26s? 27? You guys are slow. 23.4 aiming for a 22.9 :)
well i rly didnt hav time to use my wheel til friday, so i keep this up on friday i should hit 25 mahb even 24, aftr that i hav to use 3rd person sissy cam and skid my car thru half the track
Save it for the finals Senna.
Love GT-R GT3, love Brands Hatch… what else could I say?
dat rage button thou
Got 1:26.9 … but ey my country(Denmark) ain’t allowed in the competition, so whey do i even drive :-/
For the credits? And being able to say you golded every single event in GT6? Those are my reasons. :3
Jeg gør det bare pengenes skyld, det er for dårligt at DK ikke er med i år syntes jeg :-/
WOW,i love BH,WOW i hate BH
No Silverstone, finally.
Really sick of GT-R’s but at least it’s an great track this time
I think I got a 1:26.006… or was it 27.006? Forgot, stupid brain.
if i do see you with a 1:26.006, i will beat it (note i was using a controller)
clearly this years gt academy follows in suit to the grand reveal of the gt-r lm at le mans this june, i dnt mind it never the less, jus wish nissan could make a lighter and lesss understeery gtr, otherwise this track is hella tricky, rythm is super key here, after 30 minutes of a brisk practice run before i leave for school, i gt a 1:26.134 which nearly puts me within the top 1000 so far, i have alot to improve on, but one thing, my driving style does NOT reflect the top time posters, theirs is highly unorthodox if u ask me nd would get their pit crew chief yellin down their headsets, but otherwise im good
Unorthodox. You mean how they slide into every corner and exit with the outside rear tire always spinning. That crap always bugs me. I’ve gotten the best time that I can with my style. I’ll never win GT Academy.
Game won’t even let me enter round 2.. set a 1:07 in round one but it’s saying that I have to get bronze or better to enter. I got 4 seconds quicker than gold and got the gold.. WTF?? this flat out sucks dbs.
Where would you even turn to rectify that issue? Hope you get it sorted out!
This happened to someone else. They got gold round 1 again and round 2 opened up. See if that works.
No 370Z Nismo? Bored of the GT-R.
I too was hoping we’d get a 370z NISMO, but after seeing the reports here, I knew we wouldn’t.
So super car 1st round, gt3 second round, we know an lmp2 car is coming gt academy, and round 4 gtr lmp1 anyone?
Allready set a 1:27.08x, its kinda oversteery but not to hard to handel, just keep the speed up in the corners and you’ll reach it haha
Can’t wait to do a lap on this awesome track
“awesome”? Its terrifying!
lol
@ska8er913
You should try it in real life, paddock hill bend is really scary. my instructor was doing a lap at what he called “touring car pace”. Going sideways round paddock in reality is F***ing terrifying.. But so damn cool at the same time. Can’t wait to try this!!!!!
The track is awesome, but the turns on the back section will be terrifying.
