I see, thanks.
Yep. Same with Drift Trial: the first one with the 86 and the other with whatever car you want.

Yes it's done via the PS3 main menu under Display. You can verify it in the options screen inside of GT5 too. It shows the exact display resolution so it does work; and I've noticed it did kill most, if not all, of the non-vsync'd screen tearing in cockpit view and has been ultra butter smooth for me. No hiccups whatsoever, locked 60FPS w/ a nice vsync is so awesome. If you like cockpit view I highly recomend giving it a shot.
P.s. Dayamn this game f'n owns! Soooo happy w/ it right now!!
You got a 1:11 with the stock car?!
Yeah I think it was a 1:11.9. I will have to double check.

Fuuuuu a 1.11? I'm right behind you MM and I'm using a clutch so I'm probably ahead of you without it
F86 one? Fully H manual + clutch baby!
I always use the same gearing as the one the car has

Ah really? Must have read it wrong then. Yeah I do the same when it comes to gearing. Same as the car for ultimate immersion lol.
Cameras fitted inside the car. GT5 makes it hard not to enjoy watching your driver move and B-Spec races are somewhat boring, since you're not doing the driving yourself.
Yeah, it's DLC only and not included with the XL edition voucher.

Does anyone know if there's a list anywhere of the correct tyre for each car? I.e. the tyre that would come with the car if you were to buy one in real life?
There was one on the ingame guide for GT5
, but I guess it would be a pain to do it here. I think the tires that come with the car represent the ideal tire they would have. Higher end sports cars and exotics go with a semi-slick sport tire whereas most average cars go with the comfort style.

Germany is going to have its own GT Academy this year
http://www.gtplanet.net/gt-academy-2012-germany/
Pretty amazing to see how big this event has become in just a few years.

Below is the only *guide* ever released officially, it is from the Japanese manual of GT5
rologue.Notice it is 100% useful after the Spec 2.0 update of GT5 and I found it very accurate at the current state of affairs.
Left column shows the compound when fitted on *cold* while right column is the value for compound after it reaches the working temperature. Compound types displayed here resembles usual Japanese logic of marking in GT games where N stands stands for Comfort and S for Sports. Numbers *1-2-3* stands for "hard-medium-soft". Thus N2 for example is Comfort Medium.
Another thing to notice is how you can pretty much use this guide to determine proper compound for the majority of car similar to provided examples (due to factors of power/weight/drive <FR/MR/FF/RR>).
Of course, some omissions are possible (by the current logic, N1 compound (Comfort Hard) can be utilised on many small cars with no problem, providing accurate grip of basic universal tires) but this guide is very handy for understanding the basic logic behind the compounds in GT5.

That japanese website that usually does framerate analysis did one for 1080pvs720pvs3D
720p Avg:59.527fps Min-Max:47.5-60.0fps Tear:15.208% (14.393%)
1080p Avg:59.010fps Min-Max:46.0-60.0fps Tear:25.426% (24.212%)
3D Avg:38.523fps Min-Max:27.0-47.5fps Tear:30.178% (29.579%)
The average fps and tear kinda tells a lie, because there are some really long and empty parts on the video where even at 1080p it goes to 60fps, at the start at the vid tearing is over 40% in 1080p, but fps wise it is generally only 1-5 fps slower.

That's cool, glad to see there is less tearing at 720, I wasn't imagining things.

Pretty easy though, did all three while making/eating dinner last night with almost no input on my part.

So was Spa last month, but that payed 10x more

It didn't help that it was moved to Community. I keep forgetting about this thread.
Still play this game every other day though.

I wouldn't expect any more DLC for a couple months.
Any tips to train b-spec drivers? When I give him a stronger car... He Somehow decides to stop in the middle of the track and/or spins out on a slow corner - a level 4 driver is a long ways up to compete in the seasonal b-spec events.
Another question... Picking a hot headed driver for what?
Yeah, I'm new to GT5 world.

Hey guys, I had a few questions regarding the best way to set up my driving settings.
I know the game defaults you on this pseudo-arcade tricycle "win button" setting. Obviously I'm looking for something more simulation, but at the same time - many of these luxury cars have some of these assist settings, so - sometimes turning them off isn't actually giving you simulation since some of these cards have them.
So, anyway - for simulation, what's the best for a logitech gt force:
i.e, abs, traction control, activity stability management, skid recovery force (aka drives itself force) etc. etc.
Thanks:
PS: I've noticed that the people posting the best times tend to have everything set to off, even ABS. Why is that? You'd think these assist would help them no?

No, electronic assists will make you slower, but prevent you from spinning. Sometimes you want the backside to slide a little bit, or you just want to go bang on before a straight and not give a crap about the tires. It's true that super cars like Ferrari and Lambos come with traction control now, but they all let you turn it off as well, most call them "Race" mode for a reason
If you have good/decent throttle control I say turn it all off, and start improving car control for that. If you can't keep it straight then start reducing TC little by little till you understand what/why and when it was doing and know how you can do it better then the computers.

I've turned everything off. And I have TC at a setting of 2. I'm slowly getting it down to -off-
What is your controller input at? The default is 0. Is that good for steering wheels. The range is like -2 to 12 or something.
Keep sensitivity at 0 for the wheel. If you're using one of the older Driving Force Logitech or Momo wheels from the PS2 era, don't forget to go into Options and to check the Simulation steering option. FFB level is down to preference but I find that the default 5 is fine. Karts feel realistic at FFB 10 but I would be scared of killing my wheel after prolonged hours of play
Just came up in my feed:

I was under the impression that the controller sensitivity didn't affect wheels.
