Hey guys, thought it would be a good idea if everyone posts up their quickest lap times for the new demo Gran Turismo 5 Acamedy on PS3.
This is a layout you can follow so it easy to read: Mode: Tuned/Normal Controller Type: Normal Control/Steering Wheel View: In car/Outside/Front Bar Transmission: AT/MT Traction Control: 1 - 10/Off Driving Line: On/Off Time: 0.00.000 Rank at the time: Just make the tuned and normal lap time separate, and mention your combined time! Cheers Guys - make sure you post up! |

Man you guys are fast, I played it for a couple of hours in the tuned car the night it came out at a realitives house and couldn't go under 1:40. I got like 1:40.1 with a wheel with traction control turned off, I was really struggling to do better than that. I will have another go at some stage (when I get a wheel myself since I can't do the whole controller thing on car sims) I didn't have the driving line on maybe I could learn somthing by that but mostly I was just getting a feel for the new engine (I like it)

I'd recommend getting a Logitech G25 (that's what i'm using now). Great wheel and you should be able to pick it up cheaper now that the Logitech G27 is out. My force feedback is set to max on 10 with simulation mode and no power steering (feels alot better with these settings for the people with wheels) Quote:
Also modulate the brakes as if your car doesn't have abs as it seems to pull up faster. Try and do all your braking in a straight line too and if you have to trail brake only use a small percentage as it seems to really upset the cars balance. |

Some great times guys. I've only been playing with the road car - with the stock dualshock 3 controls. Good reason to get a g25 or g27..... ![]()

What is the GT5 Academy? I haven't heard of it. I haven't been in any game circle news lately. Is it part of GT5 prologue? or GT5 on PSP, & how do you get it?

Forgot to add my final times:

XRFutura, it was a balance of aggression and keeping it smooth. Trying to keep the cornering speed up without overcooking it... too slow and the car would either become unstable and wobble around or just be plain slow. Too much throttle overcooks it and around it goes (pretty easy in the normal car I'd think you'd agree). Was also about being extremely smooth, no stabbing on the brakes or throttle and smooth steering inputs. David they'll probably run another one as they already had one before this, just us Aussies weren't allowed to enter. So you might be old enough to have a crack then? |
