DLC paint can be applied to the body and the wheels. Any DLC Paint is available in addition to all "My GT Rare Paints (Mattes, Colorshifts, Chromes)" If a re-painted car is desired please specify body color, rim color and rim type (most stock rims cannot be painted so pick one from GT Auto)

*******************************************************************************
Purpose:
This is to bring more attention to the hidden Autosport within GT known as Drag Racing. There has been very little done to add to this segment of Auto Racing within GT and if we have enough momentum with this maybe others will see why the Drag Racing community wishes to have "trees" and other modifications to the game to help add to our experience. Please share this contest with your friends and help to get the word out.
 
Thought everyone would enjoy a change of pace lol. Good luck to all. If for some reason you wont the car already and sold it remember there's always the marketplace to trade for it. 👍
 
And also, remember... Just like stickers and a wing make if faster.... so does pink paint! 👍

(yes, I really do like this pink... my favorite pink color in the game)

*** Edit ***
If you keep up with the paints at all I have been doing for the contest, you will start to catch on to some of my favorite paints used. I am kind of showcasing them for ideas on your own cars in case you would like a painted car as your prize. Or even in the case of this (I can trade Iris Red Pearl) a possibility for a paint prize.

Well at least you've got a head start lol. I'm sure you guys can get all that this car has to offer out of it. 👍
 
I love The Simpsons. I feel they were funnier about 5-10 years ago. Ive tried so many things with my transmission for this Celica. Is anyone quickshifting. The numbers on this thing are very high in reguards to the max HP and torque.
 
I will let you know as soon as I start tuning it :D I generally go for auto or uncomplicated shifting wherever possible though :lol:

Watching the Simpsons right now lol. 👍

I only use auto for consistency for tuning and then switch to mt to get my best runs after I feel I've maximized the tune.
 
*Shakes head*

Same nonsense, just a different day.

Just cleaned up a handful of nonsensical posts. Next time, use the report button, and under no circumstances is anyone here, or the entirety of GTP for that matter, ever to cite nor insinuate that they'd want to harm someone with a firearm, I don't care what the problem is. If it happens again, the person in question (and you know who you are) will be taking a permanent vacation.

Now, with that said the member responsible for this downward spiral will be taken care of and this thread will remain active if for no other reason than it appears to have genuine merit; keep it on topic, or it will be locked.
 
Thanks for cleaning the place up 👍

I only use auto because I'm so bad a shifting properly :lol:
 
I have a friend that exclusively uses auto for dragging and he's pretty fast. I find myself trying to change gears even when using auto. :lol:

Edit: Don't forget that since this is a prize car it will need breaking in to achieve maximum hp. 👍

This ff tuning is witchcraft :lol: Not sure if it's just for this car, but tiny adjustments made a big difference and they seem more dependant on other settings too :confused:

I will be happy with a top 30 position :lol:

I'd be happy if there were 30 participants! :lol:
 
Give a little shot and can't get even close to 10sec on 100 metter run down

The first rule of drag comp is, you do not talk about drag comp... or at least the 1/4 times :lol:👍 You do mean 1/4 mile right?

0-60 and 0-100 are ok, but when you post good 1/4 times it puts people like me off :D

Not sure if you have ventured over to the dark side, but check out the stickies in the drag section and also this great thread for tuning info:

The dark side :lol:. I'm sad that it's viewed that way. There are a bunch of genuinely good people there to help you out. Also a wealth of info as fest0r stated to get you going as far as drag tuning. Feel free to ask for advice if you need it. 👍
 
0-60= 4.328
0-100= 9.066 lol

EDIT- Now 0-60 in 4.283
0-100 in 9.020
