I used mine for the GT2 & 3 but you are right .. Gorowing up with a controller(ie.. nes/snes) is hard to break out of that.. lol

We just bought the Logitech steering wheel with the shifter. It is the most realistic one of tried...........expensive though!

Whoa dude... that kid better be some sort of race car driver when he grows up.

Anyway, speaking of GT4, I decided to make a final push to beat GT3 before I go out and pick it up... Last night I killed off one of the 10 race Pro championships, the endurance race in Italy, and the two Zonda events... like 6 hours of driving. All that's left is the Clio Challenge, a single Vitz race, two Elise bronze metals I need to make gold, and the GT Championship (F1 race). Then like 6 or 8 more endurance races.... so I figure if I play everyday after work I should be done around the end of this weekend. Then I can get GT4 and the new wheel... assuming I've got the cash for it.

I accept the fact that I can now win everything, but since the F1 car makes it so easy, there is no need to try

The only reason to keep racing GT3, for me at least, is to finally get to the F1 race, and actually have some competition (but then again, I'm so out of practice, I'd probably lose).

True the F1 car does make it easier.. I guess When you think about it .. it becomes LESS of a challenge
