Here are mines:

787


R390


RC92


GT-One


they appear the the two used cars lot (not the historic one).

1'200'000 for the first two (each) and around 2'300'000 for the other two I think

That's exactly how it was, but I was under impression (from way earlier in this thread) that they'd appear during days 649-699 and that I'd have to check every day to see if they appeared. So I was getting a little paranoid when they didn't show up early.

Well - the B-Spec points are officially a bunch of crap.

My mini-me collected 800 points after doing 6 competition endurance races in the F1 car. He only got 12 points for racing 24 hours at LeMans...

The game awarded my B-Spec driver 900 points for winning a "family competition" race - in a MAXIMUM modified BMW M3 GTR on race tyre against the Zonda and Nardo etc.

This was a 2 lap race in the "World Course" test area.

Then they game awards him ANOTHER 100 points for doing it again.

So 2 friendly races of 2 laps each in a modified car on slicks wqas worth almost 100 times more points than a 24 hour endurance race.

Again I say this game is an unfinished unbalanced beta version...

How do you think we get VHS tapes captured to MPG...

In my mind, it would be easier to simply transfer the repla file to the PC, and upload it to a file service and then we can just down load em and play ourselves..
Ah I see. But I think its still helps the ones that didnt know how to.

Do you need to have him on 5? You can probably get an extra lap in on 1 or 2.
Probably not - he is lapping these mofos every 4 laps... hehe - but it is after all a race, so 5 it is.

The AI is pretty dim-witted - he rams everyone before he passes them... would it be that hard for the AI B-Spec driver to detect the car in front of him and so down??

If I put my bitch on 5 he always waits an extra lap to pit so in the end I lose time!

Does the car make a difference? Maybe the fact that he has done most races in the F1 car is why he has low points?

BTW - I am VERY dissapointed - I checked in on the LeMan 24 hours... 7 hours in - and it is still day light.

SO I am guessing it never gets dark. What a crock of shit.

PD make these stupid 24 hour endurance races as part of "The Ultimate Driving Sim" - and it is always light.

This game is very much a a service pack for GT3 - not deserving of the title GT4.

Yeah, yeah, yeah it is fun, but nothing like they made it out to be...
Nope I dont think it ever gets dark. I think it would be too much shit for the PS2 to handle? And plus the fact that PD RUSHED the game might have to do with this. Basicily GT4 is GT3 with better graphics, Sound, Control, AI, Options, Cars, Tracks and so on.

Right now I was triyng to make him help me in the F1 championship wich is basically a 10 enduros series :shock: but he isn't up to the task sadly.. we still managed to win the first 4 races, btu only thanks to me.. the bastard had some problems on a couple of tracks

On a side note, I would like to do a test to see how our "minime" compare to eachother.. when I will be back from Paris next week

Nope - they were simply too lazy to code night time. It is really not that hard, afterall, 2 of their tracks are already at night.

The 24 endurance races are actualy just a waste of time and space.

I have proven it with the low points you get, and the fact that they didn't put night in.

Ok, we have a new sub subforum for GT4.

So we can slowly leave this big ass topic and have some different ones to make things easier to load

Well, if you will buy a PS2 + Gt4, you will soon find many more games worth to have.. Resident Evil, Metal Gear and the list is long

Definitely the PS2 won't be much cheaper than it is now

Oh boy did that race piss me off or what? I lost by .007 or .07 or something like that. I WAS SO FUCKING PISSED! I try to get 100% win ratio since its been like that since GT2! Then after 10+ times of trying I finally got the damn thing and beat it by .035 or .35 seconds? Something like that but it was VERY close!
