RM GTO MR would have been nice (yes its only standard so no hopes) as a homage to its general awesomeness in the original title...
Hoping they expand this option, there was always something special about making your "own" race car and assuming the role of plucky privateer :-)

I thought I was the only one to remember the gto race mod from gt1...
I was also hoping for a premium fto and race mod for it but nooo, get a bunch of crummy 60 bhp suzukis etc that no sane person will ever drive more than once.

Race modded my wrx '95 the other day and the race interior is horrible, glitchy mess , textures just stuck on there barely fitting (clear visible lines where they are copy pasted next to eachother on the dashboard)
The rear wing floats a centimeter above the trunk... gg.

Hey!

I read this forum since I play GT5, so I guess it's about time to contribute! Mods, if you think I misplaced this thread, please move it to picture section. I placed it here because it's not about the pictures alone but also about the stats.

I bought/made all Race Mod cars. All cars come out white after modding. The ones in the pictures are all custom painted. Some have painted and/or custom rims, most don't.

I raced some of them, so the kw amount may be off by 1 or 2 kws on some for engine wear but not more.

All cars have all possible upgrades installed.

I put the max downforce (wing setting) as a reference because I suspect, the 'grip' formula is something really simple like weight/downforce + tire factor or something like that - i.e. the higher those numbers, the more grip, the higher the curve speed.

All race mod cars drive well and are fun in their class. You won't win 'Like the Wind' with the Suzuki but it's a fun to have car anyways.

The Corvettes have secondary colors (white on the new one, silver on the old one) and some of the cars have black details. You can't change those (at least I havn't figured a way out to do that).

You can change the number on the car from 1 to 99 on all race mod cars. There are 4 different fonts.

I'm in Europe, so units are kw/Nm/kg. If you need to convert those, wikipedia is your friend and there are probably online calculators somewhere. Google.

Since we are talking about plenty of pictures here, I made thumbnails. Click those in this thread to get to the full sized picture (links go to photobucket.com).

To show off a bit and as a reference I also put the X1 you win at BSpec lvl 35.

MFW = Maximum Front Wing setting; MRW = Maximum Rear Wing setting.

How an engine's power can be measured the same as a light bulb is just mind boggling.

The day Top Gear starts using the power of light bulbs as horsepower reference and a "newton meter" as an engine's stump pulling ability, aka torque, I will stop watching.

American ignorance, whatever. 400 kilometers per hour is a far cry from 400 miles per hour.


Why do people keep posting links to this thread from within this thread!
