You decided GAF:

Time for me to get a SpecV GT-R. Dark Matte Gray or Dark Opal Black (more of a dark purple)?

What do I get? I like both colors equally.

What was your set up for all of them? I'm only coming in second on all of them. :( I need more cash for the Formula GT.

Just reduced the weight as much as i can and used gear box on Fiat (140km/h), Honda (didnt change anything O:), RX7 (210km), Challenger (290) GTR SpecV (sport soft and 290km)

Just quickly booted up to install the update, and had a quick look at the seasonal events. God, they look perfect. Nice restrictions (both weight minimum and BHP maximum) which basically make them stock races. Was looking for an excuse to buy a fiat 500 :).

Opal Black… think it's the original/exclusive color for the car.
 
I think the zero HUD option is going to finally force me to only use KPH. Damn US making me learn MPH all these years. All the cockpit instrumentation is KPH, might as well get used to it.

OMG Nurburgring Type V feels like a completely different track! What an atmosphere with all the tents!

<3

Did the patch gift Type V and 24Hour to everybody? I turned on the game post patch after not playing it for a couple days and it gave me those two tracks for nothing.

Not that I am complaining cause 24H is awesome! Love that it combines the GP and Ring courses together.

Yea, it's mostly just cash flow... It doesn't really affect the main game.

It was so hard for me not to change the oil on that Spec V straight out the dealership. Felt so wrong.


Damn you HP restrictions.

I felt bad for permanently screwing up a GT-R that I just ended up modding my R33 V-Spec :lol

I havent tried using it yet though. We'll see =/

Oh man, I didn't realize that oil changes benefit premium cars too - thought it was just the used stuff, a la GT4 (unless the same thing happened in that game and I was also unaware).

Seems weird. You'd think the new cars would come with fresh oil.

GT Oil > Stock Oil. :lol
 
I have a CR-Z for the seasonal event if anyone wants it. I had to purchase a second one since I made the first one 100 kilos too light. :lol

My hands hurt from that SSR7 special event and the best I've managed is 10 seconds behind the Ford GT. ABS is at 1, TCS is at 2, and I'm using a DS3 with a 493hp GTR '07 with the weight reductions and the top speed set at 174 mph for faster gearing.

Just noticed that there's now an "Export all to XMB" option on the Photo Album :D
I can't hold out the tears anymore, thanks PD :3

There's also a "Time Limit" counter that says time left on Endurance races.

- Stage 3 weight reduction; Window weight reduction; Carbon bonnet; Rigidity Improvement
- Sports Intake Manifold
- Sports Exhaust Manifold
- Sports Soft tires

*crowd goes wild!"


"This is unbelievable! I never seen anything like it!"
