How good/bad at GT4 are you?

Better still, map the throttle and brake control to the right analogue stick and the steering to the left analogue stick. This gives you much more precise control.
Have tried this - the problem I find that it's difficult to keep the right stick moving in a purely up-down motion - I tend to roll it to one side which makes things a bit tricky. Would be nice if you could "lock" that stick so it was more like the forward / reverse stick on a radio control car.
erm...... this is the default setting on my game (Left stick steering, right stick throttle brake). Why do you need to change to it?

I'm the best. 
I'll maintain that I'm the best until someone gives me proof of a 'ring time faster than 5'19.427.
You have to do it yourself, no posting links to some Japanese kids sub 5min time.
does it have a deisel jag, and if it does can you get round in under 10 minutes!
No diesel S-type unfortunately, but it does have the S-type R. Maybe I could detune it and see what time I can get!

My advice would be to go and start racing with the licences you already have - get some practice on the tracks and in some races (sunday cup, clubman cup, etc). A lot of the licences are easier once you know the tracks better. Once you've done all you can without the i-B or i-A licence - then go back and I'm sure you'll find them easier.
Your advice worked wonders. I took my Lupo racing and won a couple, bought an RX-7 and won a few more and then when I went back to the licences I stormed my way through them. Cheers.

All part of the service...
i havent got it yet (i ordered it off ebay!)
so today i decied to dig out gt2 and amuse myself on that!
much fun was had trying to not come last with the 21hp fiat!
i nearly over took a mini cooper on that bend going down the hill on laguna seca! and racing the dragster round the gocart track! nothing can beat the dragster on the gocart track!!!
and the espace f1! is it still there, and do you still get the weirder cars?
I can't seem to complete the last event in the professional hall. (The ten race series) Everytime I enter I get owned by Group C cars. The quickest thing I've got is the CLK GTR Le Mans car, but its not in the same league as the Nissan's etc.
Any ideas on the vehicle of choice for this event. I'm 30% into the game as I've done a couple of endurance events but i want to get into the Extreme hall too.

If you can afford it, you could buy an Audi R8 but it costs 4,500,000Cr. Alternatively you could B-spec the nurburgring 24 hour endurance race in your clk-gtr and win the F1 car which will do the job.

The controller. I keep oversteering out to the snowbanks at the side of the road. Went and did something else because I was getting very annoyed with it. Be a lot easier with a wheel
You can actually cheat on this course. Say you have a left hand corner coming up. Simply drift over to the right so you are touching the edge of the track. As you approach the corner don't slow down and the edge of the track will guide you round meaning you don't have to slow down. Use this for every corner of the track and you can steam round easily beating the CPU every time.

one or two of the driving missions is a bit tough (gtr slipstream sucks)...
Without wishing to stray too far off topic, just how the hell do you do this one? It's got me completely beaten.
Back on topic, I've completed about 19%, got 12 Gold, 44 Silver and the rest Bronze on the licenses (after some effort though, I don't mind admitting!), and try to keep the races at at least 100 A-Spec points. Have had to drop as low as 6 though, and even then only just won when I came up against the Cobra in the Classic Cars!

I pulled up behind the pack, got bumper to bumper with one car and pushed the thing all round the track. Then on the last corner just before he braked (why they brake I do not know) I popped out from behind and carried the extra speed through the corner. About half way round I was slowing and throught it was over, but I caught the slipstream from the lead car and started picking up speed. Managed to clear the line about .7 seconds in the lead.
Felt like I was cheating a little, but I'll be dammned if I could figure out another way to beat it!

i found that getting a good tow of the pack helped me carry about 1/2 mph more than normal...but it only helped me gain about .7 a lap on the lead car.
ill try your method though.
So it's worth staying behind the pack then? I find I can blast past all but one of them on the first corner while the other guy drives off into the distace. I can get to withing three seconds of him having left the pack behind, but no closer.
I have wondered about staying behind them and trying to get them to slipstream one another to go faster, but since they never got any closer to me once I'd passed them I guessed they probably wouldn't...
