GT5 Time Trial

[scooby wrx sti]

So that's 2 vote's for the CORVETTE Z06 anymore?

we also need a new track

[Norbury90]

I would always prefer a more technically challenging track (London, Eiger Nordwand, Daytona Road) because it would offer more variation in the laptimes.

The Eiger lends itself to a more nippy car, like the untuned Elise, or an Impreza or Evo.

[Collaudatore]

I'm not suggesting it for the challenge due to its price, just putting this out there, but I really like the look of the tuned 'vette

We had a quick go with that round London before the Beemer, we have probably been shoved down the rankings by now though. I think we just did Time Trial too.

Not too bad, I'm 4th, you're 6th.

The leaderboards for Eiger Reverse and Daytone Road are quite empty for the vette....

A vote for the tuned Elise round the Eiger here.

[Collaudatore]

In retrospect, wouldn't it be better to choose the Elise over the Corvette?

Personally I do not mind but as some people may not have spare cash to fritter away on a car - and the tuned Elise is very good for completing S-Class.

[Norbury90]

Yeah, I think a lot of people have the tuned Elise, myself included.

I personally prefer Eiger reverse, I preferred it on the demo version and i'm more familiar with it.

So thats set then, Suzuka in the Acura NSX

Which tuned Elise is faster?

The 111R is more powerful but the S1 is lighter.
I believe it is the S1 version that some of us have already bought

[bodhi]

I might have to sit out this round as I'm focusing on doing the events, so all my credits are tied up in saving for an F430. I have just bought the new M3 if anyone wants a "race" in that. Round London in Professional mode it's hilarious.

Damn, just bought the 111r!

[Tall_Paul]

A vote for the Eiger reverse and either of the two tuned elise's here!

Just had a go in the tuned 111r on professional mode, damn that's good fun!

Right then i'm itching to get the next combo started, looking at the last page the most popular car choice seems to be the Elise S1 around the Eiger norwand forward. I've settled for this combo for 2 reasons. 1 the car is cheap (only cr37600) so has many people has posable can take part and 2 there are only 30 times posted on the leaderboards so everybody should be in with a chance of a high placing. i know the car is not super fast but the game's only a week old, let's not rush to get in the f40's just yet.

Right you are, I will give this a crack later. I get the feeling the slow switchbacks will be the key to success here, its very easy to go very wrong

really? 'cause I could not get online until the update was installed......

couldn't even view the rankings

[scooby wrx sti]

apparently you can do the prologue spec11 update from main page of the game

[aspen]

Anyone know how to update your online times if it doesn't go through the first time? Was uploading a nice top 3 time when it failed for some reason.
