Yellowbird Trashed :-(

[goodlife]

What can I say except sorry.

It was the first time I'd ever driven the car, and the first time I'd ever done the 'ring.

It was all going so well and we were having a great little ding-dong battle with an SL55 when I ran out of corner and talent.

Ohhhhh......shiiiiiiiii.............t.




























So we pressed the reset button on the PS2 and started again. Great that GT4 game, we can all get to drive Adam's CTR in semi-real life !

That car is crazy on the ring...

Had fun with a two-player, Speed12 vs a (silver) 800bhp Supra, after two laps the SP12 won by 1.5 seconds.

If the Speed 12 is anything like the one in GT3, that's no mean feat. A highly tuned Supra in GT3 was quite easy to drive (relatively speaking!).

I hope they don't handle in real life like they do in the game? Not sure what you're thoughts are on this Adam?? I had a go round the 'ring last night in a 720bhp yellowbird and I had a lot of difficulty keeping it on the tarmac!!!

Ah the handling on ring...

When i took the car round i never pushed more than 6/10's.

However i think in standard form in the game the car understeers like a pig and then switches to snap oversteer pretty quickly.

In real life the Ctr is very keen to hit the apex, however it doesnt have much grip as the tyres we use are old dunlops, which are cheap and rated to 211mph, but grip is not great..

great game

all the best
