It's not an in-car screen shot. Note the menu at the bottom... that's just the view as the camera flys around the track.

Ok I would like to say you all suck, after watching this thread for the last month, I had to go buy that damn game, but not only that, I had to go and get a damn steering wheel, but its not only that, my wife said I should go buy a damn gaming chair too. I wont be involved in the challenges, by all rights after that first race, I should turn in my license!

I have to pass on this one I don't have a car. Until next time.

I guess I'm back in... did not read the 1st update post. I slow any way usually about 1.5 sec off.

Aren't you notorious for whooping on people in GT4 over on NASIOC? I remember seeing pictures of your living room cockpit.

/me clears his schedule for this evening to get into the 1'00's.

Oh, regarding cars and game completion. I'm not very far myself as I spent a lot of time getting gold for all of the licenses. I don't know if this is possible, but if you choose a car that needs to be won, can you tell us how to win the car and we can go finish that event?

Man, this is going to take time away from building my real racecars...

No, I just have a comfortable seat. From looking at your lap at Midpark, this is going to be tough!

And regarding that seat, it's a stock Miata seat that came out of my SpecMiata with a bunch of square steel tubing welded together. Nothing exotic and took about a day to design and build. It's nice that the seat slides forward/backward and reclines so anyone can fit.

I just did a Google search for the entire car name, and the race that needs to be beat to attain that car was in the first result.

That's what I plan to do w/ the seats out of my WRX once I get a cage in it. I figure one for the PC and one for the PS2/XBox. (Plus, I need to teach myself to weld... this seems like as good a project as any!)

Okay here's my time for this challenge. 1'01.237



I'm not going to do more laps since I just got this in the mail, and I got to waste 2 hours watching Petter Solberg crash into a snow bank or however he's going to retire this time in Sweden ;P

Holy crap Alan... I'm at work right now, so I can't be sure... but I think that is *exactly* the same time as my current fastest lap!

Wait. Is this in arcade mode or GT mode? I noticed that Scott's car in the video had very different gear ratio's than what I was driving. You can't change gear ratios in Arcade mode, can you?

Shit. Just figured it out. I had maxed out top speed and didn't realize it was increasing my final drive ratio. So my gears are way too tall. I thought something was wierd when I was barely getting into 5th gear on the main straight!

I've got one more day...

Crap, Gary you ran a 1'01.2 with the gears at max tall? I *am* going to have to run a 1 minute flat lap to win this!
