Gran Turismo 4.....

How about:

Power to Weight: No less than 2.5

Track: Midfield (Reverse)

Drivetrain: Any

Rulez::thelaw:
1. Best of the Month chooses next (Track, Drivetrain,P2W Ratio)
2. One lap single run.*
3. Snapshot of Final Time.**
4. Must also list car and hp.
5. Power to weight Ratio is the measurement scale. (HP limits can be incl. to further narrow the spectrum).
6. No Supercars(i.e. Indy, touring, concepts, etc.. to keep the playing field even).
7. Nitrous (as per winners choice).
8. Smack talk is allowed as long as it's not offensive or derrogatory, but keep it short and unargumentitive.


I am open to suggestions so please LMK!

*What that means is if you go into career mode and go to that track for time attack, it will allow you to run it once and the clock will begin after you cross the finish line. That first clocked time is your time.
** Also, video is welcome if your up for it.:biggthumpup:

Hey man thx for posting up! I know of two other local members that play as well. I'm surprised that there isn't more, but maybe there arn't many gamers in this scene...? So what do you know about GT4?

I played GT alot as well. I am not a fan of four though. The dynamics seem a bit over the top. With Braking and handling. I still think 3 was the best designed.

I wish they would release the full version of 5 already.

Castrol Supra FTW.

it's actually my 4th or 5th time playing gt4. i realize it's more realistic than most racing games out there but it would be nice if they actually changed the appearance of the car when you added parts to it and if there was an option to plus size your wheels. most of the stock wheels in that game are smaller in appearance than in real life. for instance, i bought the 91 aristo and the wheels look like 14's. only when i bought the racing tires for it the wheels looked like 16's.

i wouldn't exactly call myself a gamer, i just like car/racing games for the PS. i also play tokyo xtreme racer 3 and drift, i have shutokou battle for my psp, lowrider (extremely fun, i'm using a 61 impala in that). i don't have a ps3 just yet but i'll probably get one when gt5 is out. prologue is out but i'm hearing mixed reviews on it.

Yeah Kaido Battle (Touge no Densetsu) [USA: Kaido BAttle Drift Racer]
Is probably one of my favorites other than GT Series

I love the drift dynamics in TND..way better than american released version IMO! OUr versions of drift has the car already drifiting when turning which is gay. That game gives you a force feeling, plus a better feel for speed/intertia.

As far as GT4, we always come up w/ ideas that it could be better (car damage, physical attributing), but as it stands has excellent racing dynamics. Tuning the car makes a great difference. We don't do boost/catchup, always meet at the line and go @ .10sec, will vary from 1-3 laps, plus tire wear. I remove the music and all the distractions you dont need to know (track time, lap, map, inertia gauge). If you give it a chance, it far exceeds part 3 IMO.

I love GT4 so much. I'm really enjoyed Forza, but I still go back to GT4. I'm willing to play in a Time Attack. I'm not very good, but it's something to do!

When I was a gamer, this was definitely one of the games I used to play a lot. Come to think of it, I still have the Logitech wheel that does 900°.

I wish my ps2 worked, all i played was GT4. I would build cars then just drag race em, quickest car i ever built was the R34.

I used that one tactic where you race on the island and win the Rally Toyota and sell it for a guap of money.

I love the whole GT series but I never picked up 4. I can't play a car game for more then 30-45 minutes a day. I get bored quick. The only game that stays in my xbox 360 is nba2k9. I havn't put it down since the day it was released.

i'm a big GT fan...

I used to play that when i was in highschool (the first one). Got my appetite wet for Suspension works. Ended up going to work for a racing team. They couldnt understand why i knew so much about Suspension tuning (I never said anything about Gran Turismo though) LOL!

I haven't touched it in YEARS but lately people have been playing...

I'm big on taking some Bum-Ass car and tuning it to the ragged edge of perfection in handling and balance. and beating my best laptimes with some of the best cars i liked to drive...

I had some times that I was looking to beat on Nurburgring, Set down my GS300 and get to work.

i think i was finally able to come out of nurburgring with a 7:45 or a 7:43 with my GS300 after tuning the Balance to beyond reason. (that was with maybe 390hp and no weight reduction and medium grade racing tires...not super soft...)

against my friend's more powerful cars, mine would get beat....badly so i only raced it when they brought out something OTHER than a Skyline/Supra. but I enjoyed racing the clock more.

ahhhh NOOOOOO one of my cars' handling is based on nitrous use! :sad:

No nitrous it understeers for those long corners. use nitrous in the tight corners for oversteer...no Lotus Carlton then. lol

What's the tire limitations?
