Im pretty sure flat out the proper Ferrari F1 is faster actually so were stick the FGT unless everyone has a Ferrari one?

Yeah good call on the merc. We should pick one for us all to use.

Let the games begin!

Are there any events using Monaco so it makes it easy to see each other's times?

Grabbed the Japanese Classics Seasonal today, I think I already had the Toyota 7 but at least the money boosted my coffers. I didn't get anywhere near doing a run at Monaco but I have set some B-Spec Endurance events going, currently about 15 minutes away from finishing the Indy 500...

Just about to have a few laps around Monaco, gonna stream/record it at http://www.twitch.tv/random_dave

il come have a look at that.

Cant get through the 1:21 barrier. I seem to do really well then fluff the last corner. Using a pad is so much slower in terms of braking and accelerating im finding. The setup Im using is sweet though, I can hammer it through most corners even when braking a bit late

Was he stuck in 3rd? Joking aside I'm guessing that's quick! My biggest problem is that because I run without traction the kerbs are not my friend!!!

think he said he had traction at 1. (might have been abs)
he defo spun out quite a few times.

he (and retro) showed there downforce, suspension and other settings.

no one here should be using traction, we are all grown ups.
(the nurburgring were a mistake, got over 4 secs off my time on it but touched the grass on slow down to corners after the huge straight:( )

I had no assists at all, usually I would use ABS = 1, but as the rules are ABS = 0 I set the front brake force to 3 and the rear force to 1 on the in-game radial menu thing to prevent too much lockup


Otherwise it was full downforce, transmission at 199 top speed and suspension as follows


Don't think I've altered the LSD

1:16:006 as a banker lap, there's some room for improvement, but hitting consistent laps on the limit at that place is a nightmare

having used the Driving Force GT and the G25 back to back at work I was really reluctant to only be able to justify the DFGT when GT5 came out, but now that I've played so many hours of it, GT6 is round the corner, and even that makes the MS wheel feel weedy I'm very tempted to get a Fanatec wheel that will then work on PS3, 360 and PC. Presumably it would work on PS4 too via Logitech compatibility.
It's not gonna work on xbone, but I don't intend to buy one anyway (hell, GT6 will stave off any urge for a PS4 for a good couple of years)

(I've just moved one of the cameras for the stream so that it points at the pedals/feet, which makes much more sense)

Having said that, the way the feedback is implemented in GT5 makes the DFGT feel really good, and you should be able to pick it up for £60 new, so I'd imagine pretty cheap used, so it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to pick one up and worth it if your getting GT6
