There's no definate "last day", but if nobody beats Sperry's current time by next Tuesday at 11:28PM, he wins.

You got a long way to go.
125.387 rss tires. Has anyone tried the difference in their driving between auto and manual. Auto I could bearly break 127. I'll try the steering wheel this weekend. |

Any chance you can vid cap a replay of that lap? I gotta see where you picked up over 2 seconds. ![]() ![]() Edit: after 2 laps with the hp up and the weight down, and the gearing changed to match the track, I ran a 1'24.607 with a ton of mistakes. Which raises the question, what are we allowed to change? I was assuming only the tires since that's all that was stipulated in the original post... are we allowed to change everything that arcade mode allows?

I thought the whole point of the arcade mode is so you have a standard car where you don't even have the difference of the oil change like GT mode.

According to the original challenge, we're allowed to change tires, but nothing was mentioned about the other settings. IMO, we might as well allow any changes arcade mode allows, just so there's no question about someone bumping up a little hp just to get that extra .1s.

I agree with Sperry. I didn't know these settings were available either. Might as well use them if they're there.

I didn't think you could do oil changes in arcade mode. I haven't even looked to see where these "handicap" settings are. But do whatever you can to make your car faster within the posted rules, I guess.

License tests eliminate all of the variables (except for bemani's JDM version).
Isn't there a superlicense test on the 'ring? |

However, if Nick can't match his controller performance w/ the wheel, then I think we've got proof that GT4 favors the dualshock w/ all the assist it gives the driver. You'd think they'd make the wheel work better than the controller just so they'd sell more wheels. ![]()

So just to clarify, you guys are adjusting the weight and power in arcade mode right? Is it easy to find these handicap settings?

If the game without a doubt was better with the wheel I think it might hurt sales, of the game, because everyone has a controller but not everyone will spring for a wheel.

Besides... the game *is* without a doubt "better" with a wheel. It's way more fun. I'm just not sure that the wheel isn't a handicap. I'm not saying Nick's not a good driver, but I think the best I could do is within about 1 second of him. There's just no place to pick up that much time. Also, if they sold half as many games, but every game sold with a wheel, I bet they'd make more money... the wheels' are like $150+, and probably cost like $30 to manufacture, if that.

So you guys are fuckin with the cars shit in arcade mode then? 1.24 doesn't seem that hard esp. if you do that. I was just using RSS tires.

I don't think the option to buy a wheel in game correlates with the process of spending $6,000 more in a car purchase.
