Funny things in GT5

[shabba]

How about an international MBT championship... as in Main Battle Tank? You could have B-Spec Bob as your gunner. The more B-Spec points it has, the more accurate and the faster it can reload... Or you could even swap - put Bob in the driver's seat and you take the gun. Think of the fun you could have.

Imagine putting a Leopard II, Challenger II and Abrams II tanks against each other on the Grand Canyon race track... Then there's the upgrades - Full racing turret, stage 4 cannon, armour piercing round upgrade...

Then there's the historic MBT cup - pre-Vietnam era tanks. Shermans v's the Panzer Tiger tanks. Woo hoo!

here are some funny races i'd like to see:
1. Mobile staircase races (those things you see at the airport)
2. Rickshaw races
3. Hot Dog stand races
4. unicycle races
and more may come along....

I think that it would be sweet to have a off road course for like Hummers, Jeeps, and Range Rovers, with huge bolders, and hills/mountains to climb,(not based on speed but your vehicles off road capabilities,with the possibility of getting stuck and not being able to finish the course. Like the real life Jeep challenges.

Not necessarily meant ot be just haha funny, but more like fun and probably pretty cool too: karts. It would be awesome if they threw some PD special model karts, or have Briggs and Stratton or Craftsman or Tecumseh sponsor a special model cart using their respective engine. Imagine a little kart that weighs nearly nothing tearin up to 60 or even 100mph faster than a Z06., and if you are unfortunate enough to get hit by said Corvette you'll go flying! lol k, I'm done.

LOL. That's golden. Now all we need is grizzly bear riding a Briggs and Stratton.

 

[Alonsomania]

Wacky Wheels 👍

How about midrace fights with your or other teams pit crews, drives on the race track or after that guy who hit you and stuffed up your car or the power to chuck pit gear like hammers and rattle guns and other drivers. Oh and oil slicks.

That was a quality post +rep, it sure made me laugh.

make a-spec ponts worth more than bragging rights, make them give you sponsorship money.

 

[shabba]

What about the refueller spilling fuel on the car and it bursts into flames. Which F1 driver did that happen to a few years ago?

what about a gradual change from day to night on endurance races? especially the 24 hour ones. and the baja 1000 would be nice...

Not really funny that one.

In all seriousness this is the wrong thread. Try the 'Things you want to see in GT5 other than cars' its on the front page of the GT5 forum, or maybe even the GT5 weather thread if you want to be more specific about what you want for day to night changes.

 

[Francesthemute]

sorry

 

[Jim Prower]

What about the sound track?

"Don't Worry, Be Happy"
Any Wierd Al song
Christmas music
"Happy Sax"
the Monty Python theme

any more absurd songs to be racing to?

 

[bjb]

The Benny hill show theme song. That song should play while your fast forward the replay.

 

[Serge.D]

 

[Jim Prower]

How about a fully functional DeLorean/Brown DMC-12 Time Machine?

 

[bjb]

Ha ha ha that's so funny. That's how we will get to the 70s, 80,s races.

 

[shabba]

I like it. If you're behind, just set it ahead several laps and you're set. Hey, you could even undo B-Spec Billy-Bob Wally's bad driving with a quick jump forward...

 

[Stevisiov]

Thats one increadible hybrid game.

 

[dylansan]

Wow. I'm surprized this thread lasted this long. To be perfectly honest, few of the posts in this thread were what I was expecting. I was thinking about things that actually could happen, like a combintion of different suggested ideas (Motor Cairage + damage). Still, most posts were incredibly funny anyway, so don't worry.

Anyone know how to get that BTTF mod for VC or SA?

Hey, I just noticed post 15:

The DeLorean can fly and go through time like in the movie.

 

[bjb]

How about a 1880 and 1920 24 hour race on the ring.

 

[waterpoloinc]

that was jonny herbert.
Happened to micheal schumacher 2 yaers ago
and than massa last race.

If PD get the weather sorted out, you could have random lighting bolts striking cars and making them explode throughout the race

Erm sorry to correct someone on the 'funny things in GT5' thread, but cars don't explode when hit by lightening. However it would make for an interesting weather system, hmm.

 

[Jim Prower]

Well, If Lightning hit the Delorean, you'd get transported instantly to 1885, have to become a blacksmith, and end up having to avoid getting shot in the back by a badguy while getting your teenage freind back to 1985 by pushing the DeLorean using a steam locomotive.

Then you'd end up building a steam engine into a Time Machine, get hitched to a gal who you rescued but weren't supposed to, and continue to travel the time-space continum. Perhaps get your own cartoon show.

 

[Leonidae]

don't forget the awesome 8bit nintendo versions..

anyways, what funny things i want to see in GT5? well, remembering a videoclip where a hare ran on track and got obliterated by DTM merc, how about an event where you have to chase a VW Rabbit GTi Mk1 or MK5 on some twisty tracks? and catching the rabbit would unlock some wacky edition of that car, like "Bugs Bunny(tm)"-edition that has 250bhp and AWD with some rally-style bodykit and silly Bugs Bunny(tm)-vinyls..

 

[Alfaholic]

Funny things for GT5:
When racing at night, old Alfa Romeos only have one working headlight.

Triumph Spitfire leaves a trail of oil behind it... for about half distance, then, a few minutes later, the engine expires in a cloud of steam.

All '80s Italian cars develop rusty looking holes once you've had them for about a week. Over time the holes gradually get bigger, and the car's mass gradually gets smaller.

RE: B-spec bob as a tank gunner?!? Are you crazy? The only vehicle he'd manage to hit would be the one he's in!

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

-> Hmm, I wonder. If you guys remember the monkey whos staring at you whenever you cruise down Trial Mountain?

-> I would like to see it attack on whoever he see it first on endurance races.
