no wheel will help u with that problem matt, thats just your poor driving standard m8e ;) :p :o

Shut it you :p

hi matt ;)

kewl, its coming down at around 115kbps :-)

done in 20 mins ish :D :D

Welcome to the modern age Stevey ;)

Cool, only 9hrs togo @ 4.8KB/s, oh wait thats quite a long time isnt it :mad: :D

just finished d/l ing it. superb handling, sound & graphics. just shame I cant race any other cars

Phil

yep awesome but with keyboard or joystick its too tricky, needs a wheel for sure.

whey hey matty ::D :D

21 mins, average speed of 115kbps overall :D :D

roflmao @ bio

d000d only a few short weeks ago i was still on 33.6k !!

ask matt....he'll tell u bout me and my piece of string connection to the net !!

4.8k !!! jeez thats good...i'd have been luck to exceed 3k on a good day :o :o

do i love my BB ? yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Is it the same game that used to use the F1 game for circuits??

Cheers
Si

4% and 3hr 6mins to go @ 13.5KB/s. :mad:

Mines keeps stopping after 600k pissing me off! On the Europe server @61Kb per sec:) 39 mins hehehe

44mins @ 55KB/s on the Netherlands server now ;) :D :cool:, cheers super_si

yeah us was limited to 100(kper sec i think) whilst a few where 1000 :)

is there only 1 circuit and 1 car in the demo.. gets a bit boring after a while going round the track in the same car with no competition

Neanderthal, have a look at http://www.listercars.co.uk/ and notice the driver's head movement from the suspension going over the track surface. Many people say GTR depicts unreleastic head movement and bouncing about the track but looking at this driver's head in the Lister videos might change your mind :)

Its only a tech demo MadGrip, try and get your time down into 2.10's (thats where the current hot lappers are on Spa atm), fiddle about with all your settings, suspension, brake ducts, tyres, camber, fuel loads, pressures, wing etc and just experiment with the handling. You will need these skills for the full game :)

damn.. I thought I was doing well getting 1:30's but still on standard settings

Phil

Only driven out the pitlane its awesome :)

It is the same as the one that used the F1 files.
Whens release date?

Si

The sound effects are what make it, oh and the physics

Whats the button to turn the limter off ;) cant find the command for the life of me

Well the ps2 controller converter is sh!te - total waste of money that was. Gonna have to find myself a pc steering wheel now before I can even consider playing this.

Oh and 'L' turns off the limiter. All the commands are in the game under the options when you return to the garage.

i've not seen anything about this game til this thread today ?

they keeping it a secret or summat ???????????????

The sounds are awesome, the best I've ever heard in a game :)

is that with or without your hearing aid matt ? ;)

Played Toca RD2 straight after GTR and it's shocking! had to turn the sound up cause it was so quiet compared to GTR. The handling was poo too!

hmmm i'll not bother with TRD2 then matt.

(see i managed to post a relevant post :p )

well done Steve! ;)
It depends whether you prefer the ultra realistic handling of GTR or you want the 'arcadey' feel that all Codemaster games seem to have. Before I'd played GTR, toca RD2 was fine, but when switching from one to the other it makes it completely obvious which one's the most realistic!

can't believe people can do 2.10s if this a full sim then it should be nigh impossible to beat the current times by 8 seconds unless your Oliver Gavin ;)

might leave it till the weekend and have a go with the datalogger to get a decent setup :)

Yeah exactly flat4, but these people doing 2.10's are doing it without the worry of damage to the car, no black flags or penalties and are taking extreme liberties with kerbs etc. No way could you drive like that safely for a full race. I bet they are all using soft tyres and only enough fuel for 2 laps.

I prefer to drive as if I were in a real race and lets face it, these are the people who would be a danger in a real race :)
