Should I buy the cars right now?

Yes, that'd be a very good idea. 👍

Just get an oil change in each since you don't have time to break them in.

I have the Red Room number ready. As soon as I have the Blue Room number I'll post them both.

I enjoy SNAIL and commend all those involved on an excellent job. It's not SNAIL or anything to do with anyone. It is update 2.09. With this GT5 has ruined the game on many aspects for me. Basically I am having serious trouble coming to terms with cars that don't steer anymore. I hit the apex and start into the throttle only to have to dump it twice to keep from pushing of track. Before update I never had this kinda of push.

The physics change has plagued me from day one. I tuned my NASCAR Monday night and had the car solid and felt awesome. Was ready to rock. Tuesday update comes. I jump in to try my NASCAR out. It was over a full second slower and drove like a pig. So back to tuning to try and fix a perfect tune from last night. No luck even getting the car to drive right. I like a car with enough oversteer and throttle oversteer I can spin it out with wheel input and matting the gas. Not now. No way. So that started my frustration. Compound the JGTC2 series and my favorite track. GP/F. The car would not turn to Save it's life. After a week of tweaking tuning. I got some help last night and the car is "drivable" however it's not right.

Now here we are today. The NASCAR and JGTC2 thing has upset me pretty badly. Compound that with penalties directly related to the new physics and now I'm mad. Not at anyone here or on GT5. I love you guys. It'd Kaz and his stupid ass update.

I may calm down and rethink this. However as of right now I'm very frustrated.

Sorry to bail out. Which is something that bothers me too. I'm not a quitter. However when something doesn't bring the enjoyment it did two weeks ago. It's trying. I had enough stress in my life that this game wasn't supposed to bring that. It was my zen place. My happy place. Kaz thank you for ruining that.

I'll still be around and most likely bite the bullet and join in.

I'm starting to feel the same way. IMO the update has ruined the game for me. I'm very resistant to drastic change and this is a drastic change for me. The cars slide WAY too much now. All of my tuning (250+ cars), down the drain. Every car has massive under steer entering the corner and massive oversteer on corner exit. It's taken the fun out and made it stressful to me.

I can always retune every car but I have a feeling by the time I do that they will either release another update that changes the physics yet again or GT6 will be released.

Guys, is allowed to paint the cars?

I got the same opinion and I'm very angry on who's did that because after a longtime to practice and tune that update is such a waste of time for who's playing this game for a longtime.

Yes

 

[OwensRacing]

I missed you guys last night. Granted I had fun with GF and my sons. I still missed racing. So yea I'll prob be there Sunday.

Racing passion is to strong not to race. Guess I just hope for an update and drudge on till then.

I went back and tried my Shift 2 and F1 2011 games to see if I liked them better. That experiment lasted about an hour
