"Gran Turismo"

what do you reckon was the best gran turismo out of every single one made whether it be Gran Truismo 1, GT 2 , GT3 A-spec, GT concept Tokeyo - Geneva, GT 4 prologue or Grna Turismo 4.

What do u reckon the maker of Gran Turismo should improve on in GT5 on the PS3, personnaly i think it should be damage on the cars and a proper car wash. Or even if it could be done say have a starting limit of £20,000 to build your own car from scratch right from the drawing board. Also what should they keep from previous GT'S.
What do you think?

That's interesting and useful information - cheers down!

It's not just HP, the car's body deforms, and needs a 50,000 credit body strengthen to fix it.

As the F1 cars don't have a place to get tuned, they can't get strengthened, so I think Polyphony made it so that they don't deform.

Also, you can't give an oil change to an F1 car.

HP can be regained with a simple oil change (I think), so there's no reason not to use a car.

I'm pretty sure the F1 car doesn't lose HP.

Not sure though.

I have that car, but for some reason the B-Spec guy can't win still. The tyres seem to wear down far more quickly than the other cars tyres do. I even drop the pace down to "1" or "2" for safety, but they still burn up. I'll try again though since you mentioned the car can do it. I may also change the tyres to something harder, but that'll sacrifice a lot of pace. Alternatively, I can let the B-Spec guy handle things for a while and every hour or two I can take over for a bit and drag the car back into contention. Could become quite a hassle though.

Thanks for the advice though! Maybe my B-Spec driver just isn't experienced enough yet.

Win the El Capitan endurance race. Then you get the '89 Toyota Minolta which is one of the fastest cars on the game. Something ridiculous like 900 BHP. It can pretty much wipe the floor with everything except the F1 cars.

I'm very impressed that you've done all the 24 hour endurance races already. I don't really fancy the idea of doing the thing myself, so would like to use B-Spec mode. One was easy, but I can't find a car that will win the other 24 hour races (F1 car might, but not keen on wearing that out). Even if I start the race myself, run off and hide a little, then let the computer take over, I come back a few hours later to find the car steadily falling behind.

On the S-tests, have you tried corner sliding in the Ice Arena? Its cheating really and takes some patience at first, but if you get the right angle, you can use side of the road to turn you. Normally it'd be test over, but as long as you grind rather than bang, it should be possible to get round the tricky corners at a reasonable speed.

Cool, looks better than it did on GT3 A-Spec.

Yes you are correct it is called Motegi Super Speedway.It is now looks bigger and a wider track.

Speaking of rally races, the one I miss from GT3 A-Spec is Smokey Mountain. I liked racing on that one, makes me wonder why now they dont have it on GT4? They dont have the Super Speedway from GT3 on there either. . . . .or is that the Motegi Super Speedway??
