so guys how did you do? I managed to get gold in 8-5 but only cracked top 5000 :) spots. Those top times seem crazy

1:33.651 for a full lap thats all i had... on my best runs i would be about .5 secs ahead of my best ghost on the first half of the track but i would always lose the lead on the second half of the track and even get passed going into the 2nd to last turn.. i figured i wasnt going to get a full second better when i would only be taking thousands off at a time so i gave up..

it was frustrating.. i can handle myself around a track in the real world and if cars drove like how they had that thing set up we would all be dead in a ditch somewhere

Who has a Chaparral 2J I can borrow? You can put it on Internet loan thing so you don't even lose control of it, I can just borrow it for a race...

Forever in most states... A violent crime conviction is less likely to follow you around and can be expunged from your record.

In Michigan after 5 years: Assault = Expungable; DUI = Still paying for it!
Kinda BS, IMO. :) I have a couple friends who have lost potential career paths, etc because of a stupid decision or simple ignorance (most people don't know where the limit really is).

I noticed something very similar where I would always be 1-2 seconds ahead of my ghost first half of the lap but then fall back last few turns...

I was very far from top spots so I just gave up and accepted gold as good.

:iagree: about the car is setup horribly. The rear breaks out too easily.

for me i would try to run my best lap every time so i would be running full out every lap and that usually meant me going off or hitting a cone somewhere in the first half that or getting one turn wrong and having too much distance between me and my ghost and just retrying..so i think all that added up to me doing the first half of the track many many more times than the second half thus i without knowing it got better at the first half and thats why i believe i would lose my lead toward the end

Good theory, I can see that being my reason as well. It was frustrating to get a 5 car length lead on my ghost, all to lose it on the last few turns :shakes head:

Any of you guys playing this game with a Wheel setup? I recently got the Logitech G27 that has a Wheel with forcefeedback, a 6 speed shifter and pedals (gas, brake, clutch) and i have to say, its pretty freaking awesome! hahaha. Just thought I would share that with you... Cant stop playing GT5 now because of it. its like a whole new game...

Wheel with 3 pedal setup, 6sp gear changer, and Playseat racing chair! Got it right after Forza 4 came out and I've been using it for both.

Damn!! that playseat is serious haha.. Typically I would say, "if I had the money...." but seeing how awesome a setup it is, in reality its "if i had the ROOM...." I need a mancave!

Well, I started GT5 over but if anyone wants to race... Pelican170 on PSN if you ever see me on...

I have the gt wheel. So only 2 pedals. But eventually want a seat + the Logitech g27. Hypothetically though don't you get faster lap times using 2 pedals (left.foot.on brake right on gas) and sequential shifter.
