sorry for the double post. but heres the video of the R32 running around spa.

probably best to view it at 480p in full screen. you can blame the recording programs for the bassive black borders

so with this new pack you can 'race mod' all the newer GTRs now? If so I am getting it! It pissed me off so much that you could race mod the s15 but not the GTRs

[mad082]

mine didn't need to DL anything...id say it was all already in the latest update.

and collecting 17 cars (including the karts)........is a tedious job one at a time

[89CAL]

Yeah I wish they had an option to accept all your car deliveries, so annoying having to go through them one by one

[liger]

spent the whole afternoon racing in the JP spa lounges.

managed to get a 1:20xx in the X1, rather proud of my achievement. also started tuning the R32-33 touring cars for the track aswell, takes forever to get a good setup.

Does anyone have any recommendations for good handling US muscle cars? I'm currently driving a C5 Z06 but it is so twitch and the handling is unpredictable. Is there another yank tank that handles better or is at least predictable around corners?

Turn the toe down and add some anti roll.

Don't touch the camber

Mid race save for endurance races is a whole lot of win in my books.

Has anyone used this? I tried on the Roadster NA race last night, and when I came back to the race, the PS3 took over driving my car. It was like a B spec race but I had no control of anything (pit stops, aggressiveness etc). Luckily it was lapping at a good enough rate to win the race, so i left it to its own devices.

Problem was that it didn't pit - ever. Even after 2.5 hours when the fuel tank ran dry it just kept puttering around at 80kph (tyres had long since gone bald, and lap times were almost 15 sec a lap slower than before).

Farking stoopid computers

lol, that sounds like a good glitch.....

yeah it does work, ive used it for 2 different enduros so far. only issue i have is that you save it as you roll into the pits instead of on the way out. i hate waiting for 100 litres of fuel before being able to drive again

[mad082]

other games i've played with mid race saves was the same. biggest issue with 1 of them was that with weather changes. if you didn't pay attention when choosing tyres, etc, and it happened to be raining and you put slicks on, it made life interesting.
