I always thought that everybody turns it off.

Guess not.

Run it for a few races it will gain some hp. It should top out at about 735 or so. Bugatti went from 1125ish to 1156 or so after 10 b spec races.

Loving the ruf rgt. Feels so nimble and so much grip. Not the most exciting but still a great pleasure to drive

ruf cars ftw. just got the ctr2 and its such a beast. going into a corner too fast? no problem, full throttle and let the awd sort itself out:drool

funny how cars gain hp runing a few races as well as oil change

wtf

wats next? car wash gains hp too?

car wash improves aerodynamics :troll:

It's prolly the run-in effect on cars.

My bone stock 04 STi (at that time) gained about 8-10whp after ~6,000km (mostly due to ECU learning my driving style). Thus I assume for higher hp cars the gain exponentially MIGHT be greater.


Correction to my earlier post. 458 maxed out would net 723hp not 735hp.

engine breaking in :D

i see so there are rewards runnin the cars thru a few laps eh...

ok.. so driving in the rain in a Merc SL on nur isn't easy =.=

so you guys are driving without TC..what about abs..default at 1?

i can't see myself driving 800rwhp beasts without any aids on hah..i only turn all aids off for license events

I turn everything off as in everything off...
without ABS.. ur car stops faster in a straight line..
i dunno just me though..
i think it has to do with the G25... just easier to modulate anything...
ya if i was on controller.. i will need some aids...

i just remember in gt5p driving the ford gt after coming out of a corner with the wheels straight i still spin out...i had no patience to slowly increase the the throttle. the g25 was on simulation mode if that makes a difference. but having aids on limits your acceleration in this game, yeah?

i always had
physics in professional
and G25 on simulation mode...
i think there is a learning curve...
but once you get it.. you defn get faster times...

and yes the Ford GT LM SpecII was defn a handful...
i never actually went full throttle on the car ever.. i think..unless i am already like 200+ and ya.. just accelerating more...

i keep everything off but abs at 1.

wierd I find it the opposite. if I turn everything off with the G27, I always spin out or go off course. (maybe I'm still new to the steering wheel) but with the controller everything off I am fine with it.

this is my problem and i've had my wheel for a while playing gt5p quite a bit..and i still find high-powered RWD cars challenging.

agreed

man some of these pics people take are insane, i'm having trouble with photomode lol

Anyone able to use the controls on the G25 for photo mode?

I don't want to turn on the DS3 controller everytime I want to take a snapshot.

i dont know what the control is on the wheel to move around, so i usually switch to controller

I agree. It's a bit tricky when it comes to certain shots. I've been trying to take photos while the car is in motion as if the camera was mounted on a rig. I've seen many people take photos within GT5 like that but I have no clue how they do it. Mine turn out too blurry and no where near the same quality. Anyone know how? Care to share?

You have to understand how to adjust aperture and shutterspeed in order to get nice panning shots.

Snapping photos in GT5 is sometimes a little trickier then in reality. :p
