A quick question..
 
I've owned GT4 for about two weeks and i've noticed the bhp figures are different when you're looking at the whole garage compared to when you directly click a car.

For example. My Zonda shows 1029bhp, but when i'm in a race it shows 970. Another thing that's bothering me is i'm losing bhp; i started with 1033; then i did the 90 lap endurance Laguna Seca race and dropped to 980. Then with an oil change and a car wash it went back up to 1033; now i notice it dropping by small numbers.

Is this normal or is my game defect????

its normal, as the oil gets old it looses bhp...
thats why before an important race change the oil so u have best performance for that race...
thats what i know at least...

For sure; but ever after that huge endurance race and very regular oil change i'm losing bhp. I wash and oil it after every three races now.

it usually takes about 8 or 9 laps of NS to feel the difference significantly between 'new' and 'old' oil..... thats why my hot laps of NS are only 8-9 laps at a time :wink:

oh, and definately change your oil after any enduro race.


finally... about loosing bhp from the garage ----> race configurations... its my guess that the garage numbers are what it 'ought' to be... but the 'pre-race' numbers are what the game programers think they would be.... sometimes more, sometimes less... the more you play the game, you'll notices this
