You are welcome. In my first attempts I was playing on arcade mode not in Gran turismo mode so I didn't have Racing medium tires. And I am playing with pads not with wheel. It is hard to turn and set throttle level so there is alotof tire spins. I am saving money for driving force pro. But I am still trying to improve my times on pad.

It's completely different with the wheel. All your setups you have with the pad are going to be entirely useless.

I picked up the wheel after x-mas, but haven't played it much. Finding a comfortable way to set-up the wheel is a pain.

it is kinda wierd, no doubt...
my biggest complaint about the wheel is that its too small, and awkward for 900 degrees of rotation... but its light years better then a d-pad, and better then any other wheel option ive seen

months ago f1 simulator ( actually f12005 and Logitech driving force [not pro] combination in car looked small box) came to my campus. It was too different to play with wheel compared to pads. You can adjust your wheel angle and throttle level so easily. I am sure that you have to change your setups and driving style. But my biggest question is after I bought it To where I should put it. I mean will I have to put it on a table to play. Because of my room setup it would be so hard to play.
What is your room setup? Do you have pics for advice?

i wonder if it's possible to do a 7:05????

its pretty funny, since my first 'hot lap' was that 7:26, 2 laps later, a 7:23, and i thought i might beat it by just a second or two, then i messed up pretty bad on the back section... and i thought i'd be slower.

i was suprised to see it say 7:17, so i called it quits then.

at 7:11, theres' a new number to shoot for damn thats fast for a D-pad... for a wheel too (any traction control setttings on???)
The answer is definitely "Yes", I'll post some pics to back up my story, but I got my 'Ring time down to 7:06.xxx today and made a couple of pretty costly errors, I'd estimate a 7:00 flat is possible.

As promised, a 7:06.471 lap of the ring using the NSX-R '02 with no improvements except R Medium tires.



I also messed around with a Z06 on Fuji 2005 and came up with a minor improvement on the current JW record time: 1:45.289


...and there's easily more to come.

Grand Valley Lotus Esprit Sport 350 1:55.997


Laguna Seca BMW M3 1:30.367


Apricot Hill WRX STi Spec C 1:26.628


Special Stage R5 AM DB9 1:24.363


Trial Mtn. TVR Tamora 1:27.371

apologies for the picture quality, I know they're pretty awful :-/

Couple of updates, I've managed a 1:40.774 lap of Seattle:


and I thought I might try a lap of La Sarthe 1 with the Mazda RX8 Type-S, best result so far is 4:19.013

sorry, i'll fix that ops:

about tsukuba... komotar really put a hard one there... on my own record lap, only one or two turns were perfect [turns 3 and 4]... but overall, were faster then what i had been doing... if that makes sence... the real speed there comes from the final turn, im pretty sure... its been a while since i played that track... but i think a 1:02.1 ought to be possible
[you can post your current time there ]
