That run was a 5:00.440 lap, and yes it was the Minolta GTP with HP I might add, the minolta is a real easy car to go fast in, very forgiving, I stunk the place out with the BTR, never got comfortable with it. If you guys want to start another race, the Opel is a good choice, fast, good brakes and everyone can get it


Who's in??

I think valvefloats origonal idea of arcade mode cars seems to make it more fair, so that more people can be involved. i haven't been able to switch the game on since i took the BTR title (sorry carl!) ill have a look at whats available. do more arcade cars get unlocked as you get better/win more races?

a new challenge?

found my disk. found a car. its a car that everyone will have, even if its the first time that they have played the game. its featured on ALL the gt series of games and is probably one of the most well know cars. its fast, really neutral at speed, copes with the kerbs well and looks $hit hot on replay. it is of course............................................ .....................
.................................................. .........................
.................................................. .........................
.................................................. .........................
.................................................. .........................























the legendary CASTROL TOMS SUPRA.






Ive managed a 6'56.89 on my second lap in arcade mode with super stikkies. come on then scott.......start chewing at my pants!

Hold your horses cowboy, me and the #36 will get to know each other very well the next couple of days, did a couple of laps today and turned a 6:34, not bad for my first time out.


Andy, don't get too comfortable at the top......

I turned a 6'32.901, but I was in the '03 car, oops.
I'll give the '00 a shot, but it doesn't look good for me.

60hp maybe, I can't remember exactly, but I was only able to get a 6'36.3 with the '00. There is lots of room for improvement though.
