Best Drivetrain.

[Parnelli Bone]

Oh man. You guys are crackin me up. I need a few laughs...to keep me from taking mission 34 too serious!

 

[Falcon787B]

We will save you from Mission 34 (or Purgatory as it's known in the PAL region) Parnelli!

And Joe - I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DRIFTOFF!! FTW!! etc. THIS WILL PROOVE WHO IS MOST MANLY!!!

...God, this is descending into homosexual posturing It's like Arnold Schwarzanegger and Bruce Willis getting together to discuss their six-packs (or these days, six-packs of beer)

Aah, good stuff

 

[Aremburgkerve]

Ahhhh Mission 34, bit of advice.......make sure the Merc is RR, so you are a man and you can drift!!!! GRRR!!!

Challenge accepted Falcon, be prepared to be uncovered as a woman! Oh god, I see what you mean about the homosexual connotations.....

Also, on-topic, so we don't get screwed at, I find FF doesn't work with my driving style.....Let's just hope this isn't the BEST drivetrain!

Joe

...and on that bombshell, I'm off to bed before this descends into a fit of baby oil and tyre smoke! Parnelli, good luck with mission 34, and Joe........(inadequate pause)....yes, I agree, FF doesn't work for me either

Gdnight!

In GT2 i go with the AWD over the others, but in GT3 and 4 i go with RWD.

Also notice i said AWD and not 4WD, 4WD is totally different.

 

[Parnelli Bone]

I woulda killed mission 34 by now if I had PAL version!

Goshdarnit!

Yup. 4-wheel drive is full-time 100% (like in some trucks) whereas AWD drives all 4 wheels but can lessen or even switch off part of the drivetrain if the need arises (for fuel-efficiecny, traction, cornering prowess...whatever).

Welcome back, senor breakpoint.

Okay...

I myself liked FR; it allows for good performance and balance while maintaining the mystique of temperament, unlike 4WD or FF. But, by that logic, I should have voted for RR.

 

[blazing escudo]

Don't know,so i choose all drivetrain.
FF is recommended for newbies because easy to control,
FR is for professional drivers who like speed,
4WD is stable & mostly for rally,
MR is nice combination of good handling & massive speed(that's why most of LM race car use this drivetrain),
while RR have reputation of it's big speed and big oversteer(except for fiat 500R & suby 360).
Whoever who made this poll,maybe that person didn't try all of the drivetrain & enjoy the fun from each characteristic.

That's very possible. It seems like many racers from this era (2002-ish) weren't very hardcore like we are. Nothing wrong with this, it's just cool that nowadays things have changed.

i agree with you,señor Parnelli Bone.

FR would've been my first choice. But, recently, I started using a 683bhp Mine's R33, and it's perfection in my eyes. That Attessa AWD system really is magic, I haven't even worked on the settings yet. All I did was put a huge Turbo kit on it and startde racing.

EDIT: This thread was still about half-way down the first page. Is this a bump?

Yup! You've just bumped a thread!

In a...Mine's R33?..

 

[orCa]

In a...Mine's R33?..

you can put a stage 1 turbo in it

 

[A.A.Z.]

you can put a stage 1 turbo in it

Uh, sorry then. I thought by "huge" benzoboy meant stage 4

 

[superberkut]

Even a Stage 1 kit is fairly large on an R33. I liked it too; it seems to drive lighter than either the R32 or R34.

 

[benzoboy]

Huge kinda was an exagerration I guess.

 

[LeGeNd-1]

Out of all the Mine's cars, I like the Evo V best. It's just so tossable around corners and it has amazing acceleration out of corners. I think they switched it to FR . I agree with the R33 being the best out of the Mine's Skylines though, sweet looking car with performance to boot:tup:.

 

[SapphDragon95]

I think MR is the best, but that's just me. They drive around turns VERY well and are usually the fastest cars in the game.
