Re: All that is... GT5
I think the Spoon DC2 is the only Spoon one I don't have right now. I need to figure out how to make the Spoon S2k not under steer so bad.
Re: All that is... GT5
I have both the Spoon DC2 and Spoon S2K.
The DC2, for me, only had an advantage over normal DC2's on initial acceleration (Gears 1, 2, barely 3). Which, is amazing in corners, but top end, wish it had a little more.
Balancing out any of my RWD cars, especially the NSX-R, was corrected by adding grip to the front (camber, springs), adjusting toe (front in, rear out), adjusting the brakes to be more front biased, and increasing the LSD on braking, decreasing on acceleration, going almost full on initial torque.

Celica (seleeeeeka in Canadian) GT-FOUR is hands down the best rally (beginner) car I have used. That thing ROCKED!elambz wrote:I tried the drift one in the snow and sucked ass at it. My Sileighty apparently doesn't like drifting in the snow.

Re: All that is... GT5
I bought a 95' R33 last night. I'v enjoyed the Calsonic car enough to warrant the purchase. It will serve my RWD needs if/when I place through the game. I'm going to get pizza/beer. Once I return I'l probably hop on.

Re: All that is... GT5
FYI, 01 M3 GTR race car is in the online dealership right now, this will be needed for a level 22 race with rather strict entry requirements if anybody is trying to make a strategic purchase. Plus it's fun as well.

Brad I found a spoon DC2 in the used car lot, sent it your way. Needs an oil change!

Re: All that is... GT5
I'm not sure if you guys have already figured this out, but the race prepped ZR1 is EXTREMELY competitive in the higher level races is you simple adjust the downforce all the way up.

Re: All that is... GT5
yep, it rendered my 430 scud, bugatti and lambo useless.

Re: All that is... GT5
I'll have to give the downforce a go later this evening.

Re: All that is... GT5
Yeah I won the Gone Like the Wind series fairly easily with the ZR1. The Indy was harder and took me three times to pass. Wait in 2nd or 3rd place until the fifth lap and draft down the back straight and you can shoot by 1st and 2nd place going in to turn 3. Easy from there if you can keep it out of the wall and watch your mirrors.

Re: All that is... GT5
I used the M3 GTR Race Car I bought for the Extreme DTM race to win one of the Bonus Race 5 events, netted me about 1.3 million credits for 15 minutes worth of work.
