*******************************************************************************
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.
 
This is quite a rare car. Although it is a prize car many people don't own it and it is not available through the ucd. I'm kind of surprised that they put this in the ocd. Hope you guys enjoy. 👍

Yeah... and I have it in all colors and most versions of mine are in green ticket... Im not too happy with it being in the OCD :grumpy: I busted my butt to get every color of this car for months.... So much for "rare"

Anyhow all my copies have less HP because they have not been broke in like the OCD version so whatever... :lol:
 
So. I'll be the first...
0-60 0:02.730
0-100 0:05.270

With my first tune.

My submission is in and my times are a little faster than that... it's was my 47th tune :lol:👍
 
So the ones you have are still rare then lol.

What is a green ticket?

A green ticket is the ticket you get when you win the car. If you look at the tickets in the car truck, the white ones were cars from a garage, the blue are level/special tickets, the black are birthday tickets and the green tickets are prize cars that have never been redeemed.

So, basically I have all the XFRs in Prize Car form either cashed in tickets (cars in my garage) or unused cars in my garage... Some I have both...

Yes its clear as day too that the OCD cars dont need to be broke in. I bought a copy of my XFR from the OCD and yes, its up quite a bit more in PP and HP than the other copies I have of it are. (No, I have never used any of my XFRs... well, I have but then reverted to the previous save)

This should be a fairly good car. Its fast but it handles like dirt (IMO). But for drag racing, who cares if it oversteers from hell... :lol:
 
I see. I never payed attention to that before. I'm a sucker for gifts/prizes lol. I always open them.:lol:

Maybe I'll make a new account to obtain all the prize cars and level tickets on lol.

I did that with my GTP_RyanErb account... why open them when I have them already :lol:

See, thats the collector spirit... :lol:

I got mine in a massive trade with another guy that took a a little over a week to complete but ended up finishing off several sets of cars I was looking for.
 
Yeah, it's fairly quick I was surprised. Woohoo it feels good to be back playing.
 
Tell me about it... I feel that I got to play catch up now, LOL. It's all good, I'll take festor's model "one tune a week".

Lol, I'd be happy to even tune at that pace. I've barely been playing lately myself.
 
Anyone else experiencing a problem displaying g's in the session result history ? In the race screen for example it shows 1.05 or 1.07. But in the session result list it shows 1.5 or 1.7, Always missing the 0.

Anyway my 0-60 is a wee under 2.700

Yes, I noticed this on my submission image, but put it down to a one time glitch :lol: On the main screen (at the far right) it says 1. 7 instead of 1.07... weird :boggled:
