1 question? are you using DFGT?

DFGT pedal... well thats why people has been modifying it.

remember that G25/27 is not officially supported by PS3 and GT5. What i do is, i just load any track, and when the car on the track, fully pressed the brake pedal. quit the session. You need to do this everytime you load GT5.

Its not the game fault, i never have a problem, just have to train your leg and feet.

DFGT pedals lack resistance.

Racing line.Braking point. Turning point.

what was the total time? did you practice with variable weather and time?

FYI, they didnt test drive all the cars and then put it in the game. Every developer has its own simulation model (mathematical model). So they can put in the car parameter such as its dimension, weight etc etc into the mathematical model - the result is how the car behave in the game. They only do selected test drive to test the mathematical model.

i feel sorry for you, i guess the net connection is not that good tonite

Yup . wasnt expected to do that well tbh. I dont know what car to use. First, tried the RX7 TC.. felt slow. Then the Arta JGTC car. still the same. So 10 minutes to race, i just pick the M3, bought the hard compound and change the gear ratio so that my car tops out at 310km/h.

Beginning of the race, started at 9th i think then i slipped down further when i spun the first lap. Finished first lap at 9.43... not bad i think. Continued driving cautiously in the opening stages because of the night phase.

Racing in the night was a beautiful thing, you can see the tail lights of the cars infront and some of the camps, if you look closely, smoke coming out from camp fire. Continued picking up places until i pass adam for the lead halfway thru lap 3. at the end of lap 3, my tyres are almost gone and had to pit, then i saw adam also coming in behind me. Interesting.

Thru laps 4 & 5 Adam continued to close the gap and at this point, my race engineer, told me that to let adam go since his tyre will last for 3 laps (lap 6). So adam pass me at the beginning of lap 6. I let him go while i maintain my pace, to preserve my tyres. I think that tactic work when he had tyres trouble in the closing phase of lap 6/beginning lap 7... so i had a comfortable lead at the end.

Jenson Button FTW!

before the race i just change the time progression. It was raining during practice but not during the race... i was like

i still believe the ps hk announcement was the current gt5 asia event which was done thru seasonal events. did a quick check to ps hk blog, no mention of gt academy download

I find this quite odd. Meaning there will be an official GT Academy for Asia??

Looks like we are getting what Japanese players are getting
