Gran Turismo 5; The too long awaited game

That's what I've been doing mostly, think I got it for a MR series as well as Italian. At the time I didn't have enough for the 430 so just got the cheapest Ferrari I could. I don't know whether to sell it and put the 80K towards a better one, or if I'll need it for a later race that the newer one couldn't do such as an age limited race. Then again I think I've probably got at least another decent car from the same year.

Here's some photos I've gotten.

Unfortunately I took these first two before I realised the panning mode actually makes a hell of a lot of difference (by that I mean the car is actually in focus)

Shame the Super Bird is only a standard car and has shitty textures.

I'm starting to love Civics

This one makes a good desktop background

My Buick Special, the Veyron killer. Will hit around 220mph, not bad for a '62 xD

And my newest, a (far from standard) Gallardo

Gets really tail happy braking at high speed

Nice, I'm a lousy photographer, even in the game, so I'll post soem better pics than I have now. Just won the Veyron yesterday, and it will do 260mph(or more) when it's all tuned up, so the Buick will struggle ;) The Superbird was a big dissapointment btw, as I can't make it go faster than the Charger, and they're basically the same car, but with very different aerodynamics in real life...

Just checked IGN for the rewards and you get the Veyron after doing the GT World Championship, which is the race I'm on so good to know.

The Special rapes a standard Veyron except for top speed (although none of the tracks are really long enough for it to catch up and it's a lot cheaper. Might spend 30k on the adjustable gearbox to see if I can get it any faster, or up the already insane acceleration.

Maybe I shoud try out the Special, it's just been sitting in the garage since I won it. Quite sure i passed 250 on it in Gt4, so it might have a chance on the Veyron unless there are any corners :P One tip, is you get to the 'Turbo cup' there's a 2 or three lap race on high speed ring that pays 50k a win, and with the Veyron that takes about 5 minutes for every race.

The Special flies as standard, you should definitely give it a go. Once you've got some soft racing tyres, better suspension and lightening on it handles fairly well too.

The only challenges I've done are a few of the karting and one of the NASCAR ones (so fucking shite). I'll give the AMG a go once I've finished this Jap championship.

EDIT: Fuck that shit. I probably would've got around 1:38 or so but spun off at the last corner so I just quit.

Did the first on in the end but the next ones just as hard. Ill just try finish them all tonight. Only do the challenges because you get pretty descent credits for them.

Amg challenges are easy ;) (well, if you're satisfied with bronze) Don't crash and learn the whole track by hart and you're good :)
