I had just about beaten the 9.349 & now you tell me we can use TCS :)

That's bloody good, feel free to post up a non TCS time, it started as pretty much "whatever you need to do" challenge so any mods are fine. If you could get the launch perfect then TCS off would be faster I'd say but that is going to be pretty hard...

Ok. FULLY modded inc NOS but with the TCS & ACS turned off = 0'09.371. I'll post a screen shot when I can find my camera. Might try it with the TCS on & see what I get :P

9.337 is just about as fast as i can get it

With that sort of time I'd say your tuning is spot in, I had to break away from convention (well maybe it's not convention) in tuning my gearbox to get any faster. Hint hint, 5 gear changes in 9 seconds might not be the fastest way down the 1/4...

I had a freak run too...

so are you just holding the nos and accelerating flat stick the whole time?

thats how ive been doing it

so how many gears are you using over the 400m?

also are you guys using any ballast weight?

The Launch is the trick, need to get that right, then flat stick with Nos all the way, auto box but holding some gears a little longer using the gear shift button, 5 gears, using a taller final drive to get that, I was maxed out in 5th over the line.

Never really found drag racing on GT4 that exciting.

I love taking the wagon around the dirt tracks. But my favourite is the Nurbergring. You have to set your car up spot on to get a decent time on that track.

If the car is too low, and suspension to hard, it is impossible to control over the bumps. If it is too soft, it just wallows and handles corners like a boat.

From memory, I managed a sub 10min lap in a standard RS4. I don't have a lot of time to play these days.

The PS3 is out in November (at this stage) and will cost NZ$1000.

All Silver ones, can' be bothered taking pics of the other colours just yet, been playing heaps of 'Tourist Trophy' from GT makers only motorbikes if no one has heard, pretty good not enough game play tho, and pretty easy. Tips for anyone taking pics on GT4 turn the brightness up heaps in the game makes them a bit better.

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
