A strange thing happened last night... in the GT World Cup championship thingy, one of the cars I was racing was the 99 GT-ONE. On the first lap of Trial Mountain, on the back straight, it spun over the hill. It stopped, facing the right way, but all it did was rev its engine, move back a bit, and then braked. It did that until it hit the wall behind it, which took about two minutes, when it started racing again ( by which point it was over a lap down).

you can buy a driveshaft for a MR Venturi Atlantique 300
I know the Acura Integras have something inaccurate for their supposed year but I don't feel like checking right now. I seen cars merge before. Also on some of the endurance races a car in laguna seca, I think it was a castrol supra, after the corkscrew just sat there in one place until after a couple laps i ran into it and it was normal again. I think the gears sometimes got screwy on the automatic transmission and it didn't want to switch or something. But I don't clearly remember everything since I stopped playing GT2 once I got GT3. At least I completely got through GT2 or so I think.

I ended a time trial and the replay started. It was the Elise GT1 on SS Rt. 5. The replay started in the tunnel with the car just going into the wall (which never happened). I waited to see what it'd do next but it just kept doing that for over a minute. The lap time kept going up and up, higher than what the replay said it was going to be. The speed was 0. I finally got sick of waiting for something to happen so I started pressing buttons. The X and O buttons did what they were supposed to do in a replay. But the L1 and 2 and R1 and 2 were pretty unpredictable. The R1 seemed to start the replay over, or keep playing the same clip or something... I dunno. I didn't mess with it long enough to figure it all out but it was not my replay. It just made something up. Crazy.
Another thing that's been happeneing to me, and I don't know if it's an oddity or something about the game that I don't know, is sometimes, usually after a hairpin, the car will really bog down, accelerate very slowly. I don't get it. It doesn't seem to matter what gear or what RPMs. It just goes slow. It's happened to me in the Altezza LM and another car I can't remember right off. But anyway, that can really screw up a lap time.
Anyone had these things happen?

A couple of oddities I've come across are...
1. When playing 2 player mode, the 2nd player's car starts to "bounce" regardless of whether it's moving or held under brake, I've even pulled my car up alongside to "watch" and can see the other car leaving the ground by approx 18 inches. Once this starts we have to restart the game as the car becomes undrivable. Have tried different controllers and settings but it still happens from time to time and occurs on any track with any car.
2. When racing in the "Tuned Turbo" at Test Track, I've noticed that occaisionally I manage to exit onto the main straight "perfectly" and receive an added speed boost, sometimes to over 30 kph more than the cars previous top speed. I'm not sure if this is some kind of reward for holding a perfect line or not and have not experienced this on any other track.

yeah, with the Mini Cooper 1275, the special model, it says it has only 93hp, but when in your garage it says 293hp. Still the car kicks a$$2

I got three
1) i did the rome 2hr and lapped every car at least twice, but only ended up winning by 3.5 seconds in the official time sheet
2) in the two player arcade mode, every 5 races or so, when both cars pit at the same time, either one car drifts sideways across the pit lane when supposedly jacked up, or one car gets dropped off its jacks as per normal but then gets stuck in a time warp and stops dead, with a sound coming out like its driving into a wall. Have to reset to fix that one
3) the old story of the salesman selling you a dummy. My 495hp storia, was actually the normal 427hp. Still a rockin car

By gt2 box you mean the racing modification preview? I´ve never seen that race mod, the only mod I get is the green one. Must be a version thing.
On topic, when I try to get in a turbo cup with an n/a car it says something like "this is for n/a cars only" and vice-versa for the n/a cup
Not troubling... just confusing at first

You get a car title that becomes a Mitsu GTO (NTSC versions call the car the 3000GT).
