Tokyo track, Viper update. 1:32.259 To get the bonus tracks in Arcade mode you have to got through and race all the existing Arcade tracks and come 1st on hard mode in all of them, once you have done that a new section of tracks will be unlocked. Go to the bonus items bit in arcade mode and scroll down, you will see what I mean. Ive unlocked them all. You end up earning teh right to race at the Monaco F1 street circuit. i did my first posted time in GT Mode qualifying too, but I did my best time in Arcade mode. Ollie has thrown down the challenge for Apricot Hill. I will accept teh challenge. Tommorrow. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

how the hell can you turn off traction control on normal tracks? it is only on the rally tracks and i can drift my 1178hp skyline r34 round (it does 6th gear doughnuts, with the right diff/gear settings) and low 9's i think 9.18seconds down the quarter! what a beast... and wtf is with the lack of holdens in there.. the only australian car is the ****ty ford touring car, it hasn't wona race for how long?? and they still put it in over GM!!! HIPPIES!!!

98% is quite an effort. I dont think I could honestly be bothered doing half of those manufacturers races like the Yaris Cup etc. Twinvl either has a lot of patience or a lot of spare time. j/k dude. 8) So Jay, any better times for Tokyo yet? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

cleaned off the dust on GT3 1st run out 1'50 2nd run 1'43 3rd run 1'33 Went from sports suspension, to fully adjustable with these times. Needing to alter the rear spring rates, there far to stiff, when i sort them out, will corner very tight. Currently the nose is sliding only slighty, will have it sorted, and will nicely smoke a 1'30 lap. What kinda final drive are you running? i'm using a 3.45 and top out at 320kph on the straigh, might drop it back to the 3.1 it starts with and make time on the straight, but then sacrifice corner acceleration, arh well you have to compromise i spose Damn im going to waste you all :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Still haven't got PS2 yet but on gt2 (PS1) best quarter mile time was 8.215!. Has anybody managed better? don't know any gt3 car specs but thought the time was quick. Used Escudo Pikes Peak.

My Viper understeered royally until I played around witf the LSD seetings, made a huge difference for some reason? Quote: Originally Posted by exchaser may i ask what compound tyres ur using?

I mean those cars are good and they handle pretty good but you can build yourself heaps better ones. Quote: Originally Posted by South2 when i sort them out, will corner very tight. Currently the nose is sliding only slighty, will have it sorted, and will nicely smoke a 1'30 lap. What kinda final drive are you running? 4.11:1 with the setting of 36 for gear seperation. Your lap times are getting close. I will be VERY impressed if you can pull of a 1:30 lap of Tokyo. Quote: Originally Posted by South2 Damn im going to waste you all hehehe, bring it on. I love a challenge. Is anyone accpeting my Apricot Hill Supra/Skyline Challenge tommoroow apart from Exchaser? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Ollie, heal/toe (well, thumb style anyway) driving works good if your car is set up good going into corners. If the setup is bad you will swap ends with the Viper.
