Gran Turismo 5 & Forza 4

[[Q]]

damn, that's a lot of cash. after i finish the intermediate rally races, i should have enough to buy a car like that. i was planning on buying a ferrari to complete the ferrari challenge in professional, but i would rather beat the world championship (the only other professional race i haven't won)
what do you get for all golds in professional?? (level 5 and 9 cars for beginner and amateur)

btw, is there a way i can fix my gallardo trough tuning so it doesn't go all crazy when i corner?

Prize car list

I think I got a Z06 (C6) for finishing Professional.

i'm high on the veyron because i read that it has the fastest 0-60 time in the world at 2.7 seconds. stock.

Bugatti had trouble testing the car during the prototype stage because no car wind tunnel could give speeds that high for the Veyron.

I've kind of come to a halt in A-Spec events at the moment. I'm saving up for a Nascar by doing B-Spec events.

I'm level 10 so far. It's easy because I can put my drivers in my fancy supercars to win Sunday Cup etc.

I've got 3 drivers so far. 2 Germans and a Finnish guy. They are class 8, 7 and 0 so far. I'm aiming to get them all to class 10.

dammit. i came THIS close to winning the veyron. i won race 1 and fucked up on nurburgring and got 6th. then a 2nd place finish and thne a 1st. after 4 races, i was in the lead but 2nd was 5 pts behind me and 3rd was 5 pts behind him. so grand valley race for the championship. i led the 1st 3 laps and managed to fuck it up and got 3rd.

i bought the 250k ferrari and won the ferrari race so now i must work on the veyron and then after i will attempt to win enough money to buy an enzo

[Phil89]

At least by repeating it you'll get more money and experience I guess.

My B-Spec drivers are annoying me. They brake on the Daytona Oval track.
I give them a 400+ km/h car and they brake on a slight curve. It's such an easy race and they fail.

I started playing Grid again, lol, I love damage too much

[volsey]

K after doing some thermodynamics homework involving arbitrary numbers and data involving turbines and condensors and stuff, and then watching that Veyron video, I'm buying this game and quiting everything else in life that doesn't pertain to that car.

"breaths in as much air in one minute, as a human breathes in four days"

That video blew me away. I want one so bad.

[Phil89]

Finally beat the second Like the Wind event. I beat the second placed guy by 0.007 seconds. Third was 0.012 behind.

Got a MINOLTA 88c race car now. 1009 HP, 850 kg.

Time to have a go at All Stars series in Expert.

[[Q]]

anybody else find it weird that i'm up to expert races and haven't needed to get any more licenses?

[[Q]]

so i finally got the veyron yesterday and i added everything i could to it and bumped it up to 1150 hp. racing tires make it an unstoppable racing car. what color are your veyrons? i got this lame gold green color so i repainted it silver. ive seen online of this silver with a blck hood area. if anybody has that, could you gift me the color so i can change to that color? thanks.

[Phil89]

Mine was like yellow and brown. I painted it black pearl though.

[Phil89]

Check out what I've got in my garage now.

Veyron 16.4


Murcielago LP 670-4


Zonda R


Gallardo LP 560-4


Red Bull Nascar


MINOLTA 88C-V Race Car


R8 5.2 FSI


430 Scuderia

[[Q]]

how'd you get the zonda R? and did you buy the R8?

i'll have to post pics of my veyron later

[Phil89]

I got the Zonda by winning the GT World Championship series in B-Spec.

And I bought the R8 yeah. About $200,000 I think.

[JaoSming]

[Phil89]

[JaoSming]

[Phil89]

nice, I didnt know that was in GT4 too (I did some Googling)

[[Q]]

was the veyron in gt4 also? it might be new to the gt series, but shockingly it's not a premium car so im guessing it was in gt4

[[Q]]

speaking of veyrons, here's mine:



^this is it at 265 mph

and my gallardo

[Phil89]

was the veyron in gt4 also? it might be new to the gt series, but shockingly it's not a premium car so im guessing it was in gt4

As far as I can remember it wasn't. GT4 came out early 2005 and the Veyron came along just after that.

Hopefully they can upgrade it to a premium car in a future update because it's like the most famous car in the world right now.

Q currently owns this thread with that flying Veyron.
