How did you win that? The only thing I've won so far is some old Fiat but I've only been doing the clubman cup really to get some money to mod the car

Second hand wheels where were they? You are getting on pretty well by the sound of it! I have a skyline and a Fiat and that's it I've spent a fortune on the skyline alone though

I looked at the wheel section last night but never saw that. I've just earned enough to put that stage 4 onto my skyline to make it 820 bhp now so now I can buy a sti6

You would say that now after I've just spent 80k on a stage 4 I'll look after I've done this race. It's much better with this power

i found the blitz stage 5 for the scoob was about 10k cheaper then the stage 4

i thought it was a bug or sumthing

4bhp but better spool and boost/torque (i think from reading the stuff at the bottom of the screen)

The international licenses are a bit bloody hard.

Now running a slightly tuned Spec C. I'd post a photo but my USB key won't work.

If you want a quick way to get money, get your A & B licenses, get enough money for a second hand EVO of some sort (I got a VI T.M.E.), mod it a bit and go and do the mitsubishi evo event in the actual dealers. When you win, you get an old rally car worth 30k. Soup your EVO up a bit more with the winnings, then go back to the same event, select to do it again, agree to clear the status, then run it in B-Spec Directors, stick it on 5 for aggressive driving and enable overtake. Turn the speed up to 3x. Repeat for each race and keep winning the 30k car (+6k for completing all the races).

You can finish the suite of 3 races in about 5 mins this way. A bit cheaty, but gives you the cash to go modding

Or as I found out last night, an even easier way is to go to Special Events and do the Rally Capri, any 'semi decent' car will do. Win the 2 races (10mins) and you are awarded the Toyota RSC Rally Car, this car can then be sold for 265,000. Easy money Repeat as and when you need some cash....

Did the Ring in arcade mode last night - bloody good fun, but slightly worrying that I always crash on the same bend, whichever game it is (PGR2, GPL etc)

Managed 8.25 in a std Spec C and 8.59 in a std 206 180

Grrrrr, Amazon haven't even shipped my pre-ordered copy yet. Walked past GAME in the City yesterday with loads of copies for £29.99 too. Should've bought one and returned it! Can anyone clarify whether there is a Hi-Def mode in the UK version? I know there is in the US and Jap one.

GT n00b question, how do you fast-forward and rewind the replays? I may only want to see a small segment of the race but at the mo I'm having to sit thru the replay in realtime! zzzzzzzz
