linkinstreet, do you have any links to download car setup?

Just start playing '99 season last night, using Hakkinen's car. 3 races, 3 retirements: 1 accident, 2 suspension failure.... i was going fast in a corner and the suspension failed.... bye bye road.... hello wall tongue.gif

Still getting use to the game, i've played Grandprix Challenge and GP3 before. There are some parts of the track in this game that i can go alot faster in other games, but somehow i couldnt do it in this game. Probably needs more time to set up the car

i've always used keyboard, and GT4 sucks as a car simulator. they don't give you half the knowledge of real car racing. Barking point will slow the car down heavily during straights, don't use that. like I said, NEVER use the analouge controller, it just don't have the same travel as a real steering wheel.
Higher RPM don't mean higher speed. Monty only won 1 race in 04 if u remember. the car balance is much more important (The Williams 04 is one of the heaviest car). like I said, find a car that u're most comfortable with and you just use that.

i beg to differ, do you actually play GT4 or other GT series before? GT is a driving simulator not a racing simulator. In GT, they have license test that teaches you how to brake, how hard to brake, where to clip the apex of the corners and so on. The one thing the game didnt teach you is how to set up your car, because it is down to personal driving style.

yusri : checkout the Console Couch board (Playstation sub forum), we have monthly GT4 lap time competition. This month is El Capitan. Nope, i'm not online all the time, but i would love to race with you guys online.I'm using my office laptop to play F1C tongue.gif so if you guys playing online on weekends, i might go to starbuck here to join you all smile.gif

If you have the money, invest in DFP by Logitech. It works both on PS2 and PC. The price may be a little bit high, but its worth it.

As for similar F1 games, on PS2 give Grand Prix Challenge a try. On PC, my other fav F1 game is GrandPrix series by Geoff Crammond.I used to play a F1 game but couldnt remember the tittle of the game; the opening intro featuring Hakkinen (CG) at A1. In this game, you can choose to play in helmet camera view laugh.gif Oh, F1 World Championship is good too, if you can find the game tongue.gif

linkin : yup, tyre wear is unrealistic in the game, but you have to understand the limitation of PS2 computing power. imho, most real racing cars tend to understeer, it lets the car turn into a corner better, but again, it is down to personal preference. Break balance can easily be changed plus you can put ballast in the car. I have dvd of the making of gt4; in that it shows how Polyphony Digital gathers data from cars.

yup, not everyone like GT, but i learn alot from playing GT and it helped me in other racing games smile.gif

Enough on GT smile.gif , i've been testing a lot at Albert Park in a McLaren. Do you guys have to lift the throttle to take the second corner at Waite?

linkin plus all you guys....

since my post was not replied, i've got a few suggestions. Since the title of this thread is Lowyat.net F1 Challenge 99-02 RH2004 & 05 League, i wonder when will this league be up and running. so if and when the league will be running...

i. Maybe can decide which season to start? 1999 season ? current season ?
ii. The frequency of the race.... weekly? fortnightly?
iii. Each driver on their own or can have a team mate?
iv. The race distance?

woe, i've no problem organizing a league, but this is linkin's thread, so i think he should be the one organizing it. Right now i dont play online, because i have no net connection at home but probably by the end of this week TM will install streamyx at my home.
