You know you're playing GT4 too much when...

[DK]

When you use the racing line...when walking/cycling to SCHOOL.

 

[Giygas]

I used a racing line to bed once.

 

[LancerEvo7]

When you want a race in GT5P to be done fast so you can start that new game on that memory card you got from your friend.

...When you are guaranteed an all expenses paid trip to anywhere in the world and you are devastated to hear that Grand Valley Speedway doesn't exist.

There is a Grand River runs through here in Kitchener-Waterloo Ontario. So there is a Grand Valley. And once a web search seemed to suggest there was a Grand Valley Speedway or Raceway dirt oval around here somewhere.

There is now a Grand River Raceway horse track near Elora (up Orangeville way).

Could be that that I found a few years ago.

Suggests there used to be a Grand Valley Car Club, but that page hasn't been updated since early 2007, and the link seems dead and searching for GVCC doesn't return much more about it.

...when you fell like asking KY if you're given the chance, "If you were to situate the fictioius tracks Like Grand Valley Mid-Field et. al. in the real world, which cities would you have them near?"

Guilty of thinking of the question having read those posts and proud of it!

 

[MarkWebber]

When you attempt to brake a real life manual car using your left foot and using the pedal that's to the left, and you realise that you've pressed the clutch and that your car is not stopping, and you overshoot the corner and thank your lucky stars that there is a run off area...true story!

 

[LancerEvo7]

When you get a penalty on GT5P and think GT4's rally/mission penalties are awesome.

Grand Valley would be great in a country that has that sort of scenery, so maybe France or Germany. Austria and Italy could be candidates too.

Actually, IKEA shopping carts are amazing for drifting. This is because all four tires swivel so you can technically push the cart sideways with the same resistance as when pushing from the back.

...When you are listening to a ten minute song, full of lots of different songs, and get really excited when Moon over the Castle suddenly appears.

I know what your talking about. But try drifting on a regular shopping cart, where only the front wheel turns. You'll fail.

 

[NissanSkylineN1]

I dunno man. I may sound like a no life but I've been driftin' carts since I was 9.

 

[Turbo-Kai]

when you "don't" recognize your girlfriend moved out because of your gaming addiction...

 

[finnracer]

Im lucky as in Britain almost all shopping trolleys have for turning wheels!!

...on slippery floors.

 

[mcsqueegy]

...When you decide to make a Chaparral 2D do 216mph in reverse gear.

I've also managed 305.4mph using first gear, and it accelerated like a Fiat 500R!

When you sleep in bed with the cd-box hugging.

 

[Shoogar]

When you think real car's are cheap because you have 50 Million credits on GT.

 

[mazdaman]

When you pretend your at the Las vegas strip racing but your running down the hallway making car and turbo noises.

Done, and I even had my hands in position like I was holding a steering wheel. Kicked the tail out when making the sharp turn entering the kitchen in second gear .



Yikes...that sounded stupid...me fails.

When I was young I'd run in the kitchen with my sock's and slide making car noises, pretending to steer and drift around. To be honest I still do.

 

[NissanSkylineN1]

Better. I used to run around a rug using a video tape as my steering wheel.

Haha, I know your feelings. But it's very hard to earn 50 million in real life

When you say goodnight to your PS2 before you go to sleep.

 

[phil_2001]

When you make love to your wife calling her Zonda.

 

[Shoogar]

Classic.

I remember my dad waking me up at 11:30pm just so we could go to the launch of GT4, and get one of the first copies. I woke up at 4 the next morning and was really eager to play.

 

[finnracer]

When you take GT4 to bed with you because you can't spend 9 hours with it out of your sight!

You can ask for a big loan from a bank and never pay it back, like this guy.

When I was young I'd run in the kitchen with my sock's and slide making car noises, pretending to steer and drift around. To be honest I still do.

I know how you feel, I drift when running through the halls of my house too.

Uh...it would still be out of your sight. Ever noticed that when you close your eyes, everything goes black? You can't see anything. Therefore, it would be out of your sight. But I usually spend 6-8 hours asleep, so it wouldn't be out of my sight for 9 hours.

 

[dylansan]

...you have a habit of using -- to denote unavailable or not applicable information (Or something you just don't feel like writing, if you really like GT4 ).

Totally guilty, can't help myself (with the first part at least)
