I gave up on the missions a while back - as soon as my MiniMe did all the enduros and I was able to get the cars I wanted (all ) - and simply use it for "fun drives".

well what are your split times....
1st - 1:48.5
2nd - 1:39
3rd - 1:29
4th - 1:15
5th - 1:04
I forget after that...u should pass the sl65 before the 1sr carrusel, the sl500, some where before u go into the turn which dips and right, than the sedan right after the 2 carussel, and blow by the rest on the straights
your last sector should be under 14 s....my time was 9:11.7
...its pretty easy after a while, but the waiting was killer

Unfortunately (since I was really looking forward to its release), I lost all desire to complete such a flawed game.

^^^LOL^^^

So basically we all are dick-heads arent we? That we played "such a flawed game" over and over again... (well the game has its flaws, but its highly unlikely u "lost all desires" to complete the game coz it was flawed, I think you gave up, because you didnt have the BALLS! to complete... (no offence meant, but its just that if you cant complete a game, dont blame the game for its flaws, even the mighty GTR *according to me, the best racing sim yet* has its flaws, that doesnt make it any less desireable.)

Anyway coming back to the topic, yeah the M34 was just a killer, the 2 min wait was the worst time i've wasted in life doing nothing. BUT Finally a day came when I passed that notorious 300 SLR just after the final right corner.. Dayem, I could hear heaven bells ringing, but I didnt die

100% complete..

Incorrect. I more than likely could beat the game just like I did the previous 3 if I only played the damn game. I don't. The game isn't hard at all. Sure some of the missions take a bit of work, but they aren't hard.
I am a huge racing simulation fan (I use that term loosely for this game) and prefer a game where the proper suspension, racing line, etc are what wins the race as opposed to the more arcadey likes of NFSU. Don't assume because I have no desire to play the game means that I don't have the "BALLS" to complete the game. I am a fan of the series. I simply didn't have fun playing this version of the game. You liked it, I didn't.

Altho I lost the desire to beat the game, I played it everyday in arcade mode at the ring using different cars.

100% complete..
I completed enough events to open all the races - and used cheat to get all the cars - and now use it for hotlapping with certain cars on certain track.

Other than that it's pretty lame - especially considering the lead time and effort put into the game.

I mean - they go and survey the tracks to 30mm accuracy, but somehow forget to complete the AI for all the cars on all the tracks.

The spend all the time 3D modelling cars and producing photorealistic graphics and photomode, then somehow forget to have replay forward reverse controls in the replay mode.

It is an unpolished cash-cow title.

Aaah, Sweetness! Manna to the Israelite
