Draco-REX Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Ok, I originally wanted to start a 'Ring board, but I know a lot of people don't like the ring because it's so long. So how about the Top Gear test track? Pretty much everyone here must know it by now. So here's the plan. There are four classes, each with certain limitations. All times will be done in Practice Mode, World Tracks, Top Gear Test Track (Sunny). General Rules: Best time must be a clean time. It should show up in the laptimes at the track's home screen. If you complete a lap and it comes up red on the right of your screen, it's a bad lap. The only Mod allowed in all classes is a brake bias controller because it cannot be removed. I have no idea why, but that's how GT5 is. Driving aids can only be used if the car originally came with them. Then they can be used or shut off. This includes ABS. (This means no driver aids in the 08+ F1 cars!) Reasonably Priced Car Class (RPCC): This is in the spirit of the Reasonably Priced Car segment on Top Gear. I chose the Cervo because there was no Liarna in the game. It's just over 14K Cr so as GT goes, it's reasonably priced too. It's also a Premium car, so anyone can buy it without having to wait for it to come around in the used car lot. Car: Suzuki Cervo SR '07 Rims/Tires: Stock Mods: None Production Street Class (PSC): This is a class for your lightly tuned street car. Think DD that you take to the track. So the cars must be conceivably street-legal. Car: Any car produced and sold to the general public for street use. No track-cars (i.e. Zonda-R), no race cars. Rims/Tires: No Racing Slicks Any rims Mods: Sports air filter Sports exhaust ECU tune Production Modified Class (PMC): This class is for production cars with no limit to modding except for race mod. This is for cars that started life on a showroom floor and are now trailered track-beasts. Car: Any car produced and sold to the general public for street use. No track-cars (i.e. Zonda-R), no race cars. Rims/Tires: Any Mods: No Race Mod Any other mod is allowed. Open Class (OC): The class where anything goes.... except for the Red Bull X1. This would become a one-make class otherwise. Cars: No Red Bull X1 (the final car from the Sebastian Vettel Challenge) Rims/Tires: Any Mods: Any So here are some quick times I laid down just to get started. I didn't put much time into them, I'm sure they'll be surpassed: RPCC: 1:45.402 PSC: Dodge Challenger SRT8 1:22.080 PMC: Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640-4 SuperVeloce 1:07.613 OC: Toyota Corolla Rally Car '98 1:13.962 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I'm not into time trials very much as I get bored too quickly (if I can't get it in 3 tries, fuck it, lol), however, I'm going to keep this in mind for when I get a bit bored later and possibly throw up some quick times.

CRed05 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Cool, I'll have to wait until my PS3 gets shipped back to me, the latest update fucked it up. I bet I have to start over on GT5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Karacho1647545492 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 ok so if you can do anything you want in OC, then why did you run a slower car/time than your PMC car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 ok so if you can do anything you want in OC, then why did you run a slower car/time than your PMC car? I just worked with what I had in my garage. That was the best race car I had laying around. The Corolla RC handled twice as good as the Murci. It only has about a third of the power of the big lambo. So If I actually did some engine and turbo work to it, I could easily see it beating it around the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
