Hey guys.

Just a quick request. I'm looking for an Endurance set for WE reverse for the XFR. So far I've tried tinkering with another endurance set but it just seems to burn up the fronts too quickly, and as i'm not an expert in the setup department, I was wondering if any of you could help me out.

Thanks in advance guys!

I can't wait for this, me and w00t Wilko may have a stab at the 24h race

I got S2 on the 17th October 2006!

MY first race was in the FOX @ BL gp on the redline racing server!

I came 13th

I'm late, but im in

It's so much better now in my opinion!!!

Anyone know which version of those squiggles we will be using?

I'm 99% sure you will be using the full circuit which will be this

If anyone needs any *tips* on the circuit, let me know

It's Sh**!!!

lol, nice work. Go on....... sit on it

Quote from _--NZ--_[HUN] :

You can switch between 200 and 900 degree mode by pressing SELECT+R3+Right Paddle and you adjust FF Strenght by pressing SELECT+R3+Left Paddle.

Cheers mate

Quote from jibber :

The DFP can be changed with a button combination on the wheel... something like two of the R-Buttons and one of the paddle shifters together

I will look that up mate, would be interesting to see what it's like with 900 degrees rotation.

I wasnt aware you could change it? Just plugging it in now though its round about 400 degrees I would think. I've tried it with a mates G25 as well but it still doesn't feel that realistic.

GT fans, don't get me wrong, it's a good game!!! The best driving game on a console for a long while. I guess i just have high expectations after being with LFS for a few years.

Quote from jibber :

What controller are you using?

I'm using a DFP. Don't get me wrong it's a good game, but in my opinion nothing more. I Was quite pleased with the ff ,but the physics just aren't that good I feel. It's closer than ever to a 'simulation' that it has been before, but it isn't quite there yet. I'm afraid I would much rather play lfs.

I don't think the pro mode is that much more realistic than the standard, it's just massive understeer at every single corner no matter how fast you enter, or what car you are driving.

Having said that, I still use pro mode but after 5/6 hours on the game, i'm bored of it

Online play is quite smooth but it's just full of NFS players (in the lower ranked cars), once you get the faster and harder to controll vehicles, the racing is a bit better but too many a time I find myself being rammed out of a corner by somenoe who doesn't use his brake pedal...

Is it water with gas??

LFS has helped me greatly in improving my car controll etc. I remember the first time I went karting (I had been playing LFS for only a couple of months), and I demolished the entire field. Now I have my own kart and setting quickler lap times than people who have much more driving experience than I do.

I owe a lot to LFS, i cannot say exactly how much it has helped my driving, but i am certain that it has drastically improved my car controll, racing lines, and most importantly my overall racing speed and as a result of this I will never forget LFS

Quote from Thorvertonian :

fail the update, then download it in GT:TV, will work

Yup that's what i'm doing now, about 50% of the way through after 20 minutes, damn servers....

How bad is the online action then?

My preferences would be:

1. Spa
2. Laguna Seca
3. Macau
4. Bathurst

But none will ever happen

And for those that say Monaco, can you even begin to picture the carnage that would follow a 20+ grid full of XFG's

I can't see Alonso taking Massa's place, if it did happen it would just be another Alonso V Hamilton esque battle and Ferrari really don't need that at the moment!

Just got my copy, been trying to update the bugger for the past 40 minutes, it's failed twice in a row! Why do you need an update the morning the game has been released!?

I will report back when i've finally got round to driving the Mini Cooper S i just bought!!!

Quote from seinfeld :

Hi everyone I trust you all had a good easter holidays.

I wana say 1 thing GT5 ROCKS, I plugged my G25 in , put it in simulation mode, force feedback to heavy mode, and no steering assist. and the handling is just breathtaking, I hate to say it. Better then LFS

The last time someone was as wrong as you have just been, the death sentece was used...

Ssang Yong Rodius?

Jigsaw Falling Into Place (In Rainbows) - Radiohead

Possibly the best album I have ever heard

Quote from Bob Smith :

I haven't decided 100% but I think 1pm until 5pm seems likely.


Really? Isn't that quite unusual for a kart?

Well it's the only kart I have ever driven with both pedals on the right, took me a bit of getting used to.

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :

Cue me taking turn 1 at full pelt.......


....only to end upside down, wondering how I press 'Shift P' in real life.

Lol, I hope i don't cause any injuries with my previous post!


I assume you will be using the ZIP karts which run on gas, i'm useless in them as i keep trying to left foot brake when both pedals are on the right side!

Hats off to all Superkart drivers, they are pretty amazing and brave!

It's a real shame to hear about this

RIP

Unfortunately i'm not going to be able to make it, I hope everyone enjoys the trip as it is my local track and I feel, a great circuit.

p.s Anyone who doesn't take turn 1 (if your on the full circuit) flat out should give up immediately
