After an extremely busy day this week, I'm up for a a few beers and a race tonight for those interested. Can we please ensure headsets are charged please, as it quite frustrating when you dont know who you are racing or having to text message....

Thanks for the Spec C mate, much appreciated Looks just like my white one I sold last year

Good bit of racing last night, must sort out the handling on my Cusco Impreza that Banny gave me, can't seem to get it right. It just nose dives & understeers under hard braking. Any ideas on setup? Iv got it a lot of neg camber up front, none on the back, front ARB at min & rear ARB at max. If this dont work Il have to take it to my mechanic for 4 wheel alignment!!!!!! lolol

If you have understeer under braking try balance brakes(FR and RR) or adjust Downforce level front and rear,sometimes this help...

Yep,i have GT5 almost finished,just Vettel Challenge and game is finished(and some 24hour races,but these are just for long days)

Try change to Race Soft,brake balance sometimes really help,lowering is good,but this depend of race tracks,all my car if have adjustable downforce i use Full downforce FR and RR...

Will try & get on this evening.

Power split, do you mean brake balance adjustment Banny?

For brake balance I should send more braking to rear to stop front understeering on heavy braking?

Maybe soften the suspension & did'nt know you could adjust downforce Jura?

Come on Ricky I expect better from a DCCD owner though I dont think it is available for the cusco impreza will double check

With the suspension lower in 10mm block and find what suits you best, also best to do this with all the aids switched off.

I also find weight reduction works well, less weight carried into the corners = less understeer.

I've also got a CTRII showing up in my 2nd hand dealership and again not enough credits

Darc, Bsnny send me message, I'll come and join you guys if your on tonight. The only bug bare I have with GT5 is that the PS Friends lobby doesnt tell you what your friends list ae doing until you load the game.... ie, If im playing another game and see a few guys online and think... hmmm fancy an online race. You switch games, log on and find that they are playing GT Life.... grrrr

Some games show what players are doing in the PS Lobby, such as Black Ops etc.

Sorted the CUSCO Impreza handling out, with mainly brake bias adjustment, cheers lads Whooped a few cars last night! But have wasted £20k on getting a mahoosive turbo for the Spec C, which has completely ruined the handling of the car Should have left that Spec C alone with simple mods. Pity you can't undo mods.

How can you tell which track your friends are racing on once online?? I see their names pop up but dont know where they are??
