I got the Toyota minolta 88C-V last night, and added a turbo, 1080hp i think, its fast and pretty good but my god its twitchy, Mind you im playing with a controller and traction control and ASM on so when its oversteering its catching the car and putting fairly bad understeer into it which shoots it straight off if your not careful. Has anyone found a way to fix this?

dont be useless. lose the extra turbo.. lose the TCS.. lose the ASM.. even with the controller its not hard to feather the throttle where you need to. dont forget those le mans cars are engineered to only turn properly at high speeds or under throttle, so if you slow down to much and have no throttle on going through a corner you will be absolutely murdering your potential lap time. even on extremely low speed corners you need to be at least partially on the gas through the corner to maintain proper grip and neutral steering

the same applies for virtually all le mans & F1 cars

But more power is always fun :P

Think it's just the asm catching the oversteer and making it unpredictable. Will have a go with it off next time. Need somewhere to clamp my wheel and pedals so I can race properly

Anyone else on here got an X1?

If so, what's your best Tsukuba lap? My best so far is 29.6

I got one last night that thing is stupid fast and hard to control with a pad, i did probly 10 laps with it and my best was a very very sloppy 32 something, I need lots of practice just to keep it on the track it is just so fast.

accelerating very slowly- the bumps knock it around quite badly, and it's very twitchy with the d.f set to minimum. also realized the toe-angles were set to - and +1 front and rear standard, which may have scrubbed some speed. car makes less power now so there's no point trying again

it's geared to do 507 (which you can't change), you should be able to get 490 or more if you cruise up behind a Le Mans car 3/4 of the way down the straight and get an aero tow

I think I only managed 420 or so in the veyron, but that was just a practice run to see if it would hit 400 with no other cars on the track. got my 111 feet per second or whatever it is lol so i was happy. Been hitting B-spec lately. My hot headed driver is getting quite good at level 12. Nowhere near as much frustration

farkk it.. old ps3 packed up good and proper last week. just went and bought a new slimline. how lucky was i to backup my gt5 data about 2mins before it broke.. although all my other game saves are down the tube.. ffs sony needs to sort their shit out and come up with a way to transfer saves off the old hdd

erm, doesn't the "backup" utility do this?

I upgraded to a 500GB HDD and all my save games went across no worries. Just needed to re-sync the trophies.

i didnt upgrade, my console died. making it impossible to get access to my saves.

one time i tried the backup utility it tried to backup everything on the drive, movies, music, the lot. didnt have a flash drive big enough for it. i only need a backup of saves but it doesnt let you do that

I know, but you could still remove the HDD from the stuffed PS3, put it in the new PS3, perform the backup to an external HDD then put the original HDD back in the new PS3 and "restore"

    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
