official Gran Turismo 5

[EL1TE]

With the new patch, now it's possible to try the cars that friends are sharing, so i'm inviting people to try my cars for free, just in case people need X car for a race, see how X car reacts or wants to take photos etc. :)

Atm i have these (where 3 of them are for seasonal events):

Usually i have:

GT-ONE, R8 Race Car Team PS, Pescarolo C60 Hyb, Nissan R92, Sauber Mercedes, Redbull X2010, Ferrari F1 10, Formula GT.

For those interested,

PSN:

Well I've shared 4 of my B-spec drivers, so if anyone wants to do some remote racing they can use my drivers.

I see what cars I'll share, probably the ones for the new Bonus Race in the Seasonal Events.

Blimey, even with the Red Bull X2010, the Suzuka 1000km race is tediously long. :sleep: I'm currently two hours in, and I've done 84/172 laps, and lapped everyone at least 25 times. :p

[MightyJordan]

*sigh* I've finally finished. 4:13:08.485. I lapped everyone 61 times. :p Earnt 375,000 credits, and 1,236,370 XP, which has put me up to level 32. :)

The endurance levels are sOooo boring. I'm doing the Mazda mx5 one and it's enough to make me fall asleep already.

If anyone needs pre endurance cars add me (and message me requests) and I'll set my cars to share

They should have an online option so you can do this with your friend e.g. swap drivers after x number of laps

[MightyJordan]

I must be a sadist, because I keep coming back to do the endurance races. :p I'm currently an hour and a half into the Nurburgring 4 hour event, and at least 15 minutes ahead of everyone, so I've got time to mess about and post this while my X2010 is happily cruising alongin seventh gear, with me barely touching the accelerator.

[BoredBozirini]

I just reached level 35 in B-spec, which meant a free X2010. Now that I have it, I'm doing some serious Remote Racing with Killa Aaron's and MightyJordan's drivers.

Oh, I really hope my driver's using an X2010 against you too! :p

[BoredBozirini]

Haha, if only. Remote racing only allows certain cars, and are randomly assigned to the drivers. And in the race I'm currently doing you are beating one of Killa Aaron's drivers :)

Just finished the 4 hours of Nuburgring race. I was arsing around so much, I only ended up winning by about a minute. :p I'm up to level 33 now (close to 34 as well), and I've actually won a decent car this time; an Audi R8 LMS Race Car '09. :) When I won the Suzuka 1000km race, all I got was a bloody Caterham Seven Fireblade!

Check your B-spec drivers. I've been doing remote races all day and yours have around 70,000 credits each. I guess they should have an equal amount of EXP.

[Kerm]

Can anybody explain to me the point of the 'Car Delivery' bit? Why do they give you a ticket to collect a car you've won when they could save 3 minutes and just show it you when you win it then stick it in your garage?

I don't understand it.

You can trade tickets, plus the car you get is actually random in some cases.

[Kerm]

You can trade tickets visa vie you can trade cars? And if it's random it still wouldn't effect just showing you whichever car you have randomly won when you win it? I still can't see a point?

Well you can gift tickets, so yeah, its like if you were trading cars (you gift someone and that someone gifts you).

Some tickets, for example the tickets that say Level 12 car, give you a random car. By random I mean that if you get the ticket and use it, you get one car. If you reset your PS3 before saving, and try the ticket again, you will get another car.

Patch 1.07

[Major Changes and New Features]

Friend Rankings: In Drift Trials and Time Trials, you can now display leaderboards that shows only your friends. While it was difficult before to locate your friends in the general leaderboards, this now makes it easier to compare your lap times and points with them.

[Fixed Issues]

- Performance points (PP), which is an index of a car’s overall performance, is now calculated regardless of your tire selection. You can now set performance point restrictions and tire restrictions separately when you race in a lounge.

- Fixed the issue where the performance of electric cars increased/decreased after a certain amount of driving.

- Downloaded replays from Seasonal Event Rankings can now be viewed properly.

[Other Changes]

- Cars worth over 1,000,000 Cr. (including gift car coupons) are now prohibited from being traded to prevent issues during the trading process. When lending and borrowing cars between friends, please use the car loan system.
