Hey guys!

Wow... Division 2... I was thinking they'd have to make a Division 4 just for me!

Oh well, I guess I'm good to go for the current WRS, right?

 

[Metar]

Correct.

When I joined, I reckon Cyril seriously considered a Division 4 for me - I landed 14 seconds off the pace, while Div2 pace is between 2 and 4 seconds off the best time.

Hi all! About the qualify, if I set maximum power to the car (+20%), it reaches 412 hp, not 406 (not available, 405 is the closer value). It this a problem?
Thanks in advance!

[Sjaak]

Hi Gigimumbia and yes,it would.

The BMW M3 CSL '03 gives 412 hp but you have to use the BMW M3 '04(406 hp) for the qualifier.

 

[gigiumba]

Hi Sjaak,
the italian version of the game, in arcade mode, has only one version of BMW M3: it's dated 2004 and is not named CSL. I'm gonna check if in GT mode I can buy a different version of M3 '04.
I'm making my laps with 405 hp (+18%). Weight is 1.413 kg. Do you think could it be ok?
Cheers,

Hi Gigiumba, Welcome to WRS!

Whichever version of the game you have, there is only one standard BMW M3 '04.
Ignore all other M3s as they will not count for qualification, it has to be the standard '04 model.

Priced at 74,560 Credits, it is already available at the begining of the game.
When you apply the +20% power increase you should see the hp rise to 406.
It should also show 406hp at the start of your lap, but it will show 407hp on your replay.

Hi Jay,
everything you wrote is correct to me, but the power. Replays show the correct power, 405 hp in this case. But the maximum value is 412.
Is there a way to send you the screenshots of the game, in particular when I choose and setup the car?

[CMir]

Maybe we are not using the same unit for power? Here we use hp, but you may be using other unit, and that turns out a different value for the power

 

[Diego440]

Like PS maybe?

 

[gigiumba]

Power is measured in CV, i.e. HP. I guess it's the same of PS, but I need confirmation.

[Metar]

Use BHP. That's the universal measure used by almost everyone nowadays. In theory, CV, PS, HP are all equal - one Horsepower, in different languages. However, the GT4 engine gives sliiiightly different ratings, so I recommend sticking to BHP.

 

[Jay.]

Go through your options, change to BHP. 👍

 

[Diego440]

CV is steam horsepower

 

[gigiumba]

I tried changing my options, but max power remains 412. I'll make my lap with +18% (405 cv/hp/ps). Thank you all!
