GT90 worth it?

[Rebel51]

I remember when i fist got the gt90 i was really upset. Im not sure exactly what endurance race it was but i remember u had to race it 3 times on 99laps. After finally looking in my garage to see that gt90 sitting there i couldnt wait to take it out on the test course. Dont get me wrong it was a great car but i was expecting a lot more out of a car that u had to race 300laps over.

Depends on your driving style I like cars a little on the loose side but, the GT-90 is really really loose, it's real good at Tahiti but that is pretty much it, unless you have a excellent set up.

Yet another GT90 thread...
I've never gotten it, I'm afraid. The two times I attampted Seattle I walked away with the Escort, and I'm not in a hurry to try again.

Seattle Enduro, random.

It says that you can use the Nissan 390GTR Road car to win the GT90.
I did it for the first time with that car and it actually worked!

The 390GTR is very fast for a stock car so its no surprise if you can win a race in that car.

Well, it's not great, but it's still the only car I regret selling
Won it first (and only) time through, btw.

your best bet for the GT90 is to drop the spring rate on the GT90 by 5 units...softens it up and lets it handel a bit better

The GT90 is pretty good with some suspension work ... The default suspension settings make it difficult to control ...

I usually run ~2:12 with it on 2 laps of Red Rock Valley ...

 

[vtec_guy]

doesn't this thing have like 1,3xx bhp or something? is it worth doing the enduro again and again coz im starting to like it's looks now. that back isn't too pretty though.

 

[Sniffs]

no...it's in the 800 horse range if I remember right. besides, people with Gamesharks and other cheat devices don't need to try and finish the Enduros...they're a pain in the butt anyway. I have the serial if anybody wants it.

It's 716 hp out of a quad turbo 6 liter V12 ... Pretty wide powerband, which is great ...

The major problems with it are its heft (3201 lbs) and default suspension settings ... Unless, of course, you like constantly counter-steering with an extremely bumpy ride ...

With the stock suspension just now, I did a rather pitiful 2:22 on laps around Red Rock Valley ...

Just by making a few adjustments to the suspension (without even touching gearing or downforce), I ran a 2:16 ...

I finally got behind the wheel of a GT90 last nite. I agree: you have to drop the spring rates, dampers, & stabilizers. I also raised my car to about 110 mm and added some toe out. But I still managed 213 mph at the test track with Normal tires. It got bumpy and I had to countersteer but I kept it going. I've heard so many bad things about the GT90 I guess was expecting a lot worse.

Sounds like it's a challenge to drive, I like cars that are a challenge to drive. It's fun when it goes wrong and you end up going backwards into the barrier.

The GT90 is a great car if you can control it :-)

Yeah, I'm learning now that the searchs don't get archived.

However: "Search" + "GT90" = answer.

And here's a nice setting that worked for me:
