I stated using the Chevrolet Corvette Z07 on the A class and its been helping me out alot.

Glad to hear that you destroyed london with the Honda Integra. That car really just does eat the track up

You go into each dealership and next to the option for showroom there is a dealership event.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Seriously, buy the Ferrari F430 '06. That car goes like there's no tomorrow. Good accelaration. The only downside is keeping control of it on tight corners.

Buying a Dodge Viper or Ford GT next. Was doing the 5 lap race all afternoon, the first race you get in A class. Earned loads of cash at 20,000 credits per race. Yes a bit boring, but needs must.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Ok am going nowere now in the A class. I cant use the fast cars. I have 1 of 2 problems. I either go to fast and spin-out or I go right but cant get the acceleration out of the corners. Am really not going anywere fast.

I have 2 gold 1 silver and 2 bronze and thats it I cant do any of the other races lol.

I got the Ferrari F430 '06 But am useless with it. I just cant control the car at all TBH. Cerberus you said the Ferrari F430 '06 was good didnt you ? What driving setting's are you using m8. I'll cry if I cant progress any further.

My advice:

Turning off all your driving aids is an absolute must. You should have them turned off anyway, traction control especially will slow your acceleration.

Also, slipstreaming is another absolute essential, in case you're not aware, you can tell you're in the slipstream of another car because the wind noise dies down and it goes earily quiet.

Slipstream for as long as you can behind each car before overtaking to try and gain as much momentum as possible, overtake quickly and then tuck in behind the next car immediately.

Will have a look at my full settings and post ehre tomorrow for ya!

BTW: Forget the Ferrari. Use the Ford GT '06. It's like poop of a stick! I did the Gran Turismo Series final race on the Fuji Speedway and that's got some tricky corners and bends. It ate them up like no tomorrow.

It's late now, off to bed, been gaming too much tonight already!

Will post you my settings tomorrow, but turn off traction control!

Cheer's m8. I dont use the driving aids anyway. I will try some slipstreaming. Its just with the twisty tracks its not easy with the Ferrari. I will do a couple races again and buy the Ford GT. Gotta use the Ferrari on the 1 lap race so will have to try gettin used to handling it.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Nae bother. That one lap race with the Ferrari is a right pain in the jacksy. It's going to take me a while to do. I only have that race left. Stick with the Ford GT for the American Muscle Car and Gran Turismo race series. Get a NSX for the Japanese Series and don't bother with Subaru Impreza WRX STI (18inch BBS Wheel Option) '07, it's pants. Have patience with the Ferrari, like I said it's a right pain. Slipstream and cut the odd corner when you can and avoid the gravel and grass when cutting corners!

Let us know how you got on!

Also try using the Ferrari on the Daytona Road Course in Arcade mode. You can get used to handling it and practice cutting corners on the course etc...

Possibly, but there is nothing concrete. I am not sure (memory is bad) whether or not you could do that with previous versions of Prologue.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Manufacturers races are a complete pain. This is what bugs me the most.

Inserted spoiler tags, just incase!

Spoiler: 
Take a slight short cut - 5 second penalty.
Bang into another car whilst braking to take a corner or whilst braking - 5 second penalty.

Yet when another car 'accidentally' bangs into you - nae penalty!


Hows that realistic? Another slight downside to the game.

Oh and the Daihatsu one make event race is a total pain. I'd go quicker in a pair of roller skates.

Now this does contain a spoiler! DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU WANT TO!

You can quick tune in all classes once you have completed A,B & C classes. It unlocks S class, Quick Tune 9in any class) & The End Credits in GT:TV


If you've read it and have the game, then enjoy and keep working at it, if you haven't already!

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Well it looks like we may be getting the damage in GT5 and in GT5:P as a download.

Quote:
How soon is "soon"? Well, sooner than we expected. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue will be getting a vehicular damage model, according to a new interview with IGN. This long-awaited feature will be made available as a download and could be available as early as this fall. Polyphony's Yamauchi said that, "maybe by Fall we'll be able to implement it."

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Love the Ford GT omg what a car !!! Best I've used in the game by miles. Oh and the sound of it is just something else. Nice spot Cerberus m8. It like's to growl at you but it does the job like no other lol.

Just gotta do that Ferrari race now. I just cant get to grips with that car at all. Most i've got up2 is 8th place lol. I start doing well then spin out or take the corner to slow lol gonna have to work on them corners.

EDIT**

Just done the Ferrari Race. Only came third but was very close to the leading two. Couple better corners and I may have taken Gold. Thats A class done now. Guess its just Tune and cleanup now
