Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - Test A8: Desperate measures

[Izerath2]

20 seconds of shortcut penalty for you my friend.

The best car in the game is no doubt the f1 2007. However it requires you to completely beat the game, even s class!! What I would suggest is to buy a Citroën GT. It's a fucking fast car and can be unlocked anytime as long as you have downloaded the spec III update and have 1,000,000 cr!

I HAVE BEAT EVERY LEVEL ABC in this game and I STILL CAN'T BEAT A-8! It's ridiculus, it's impossible, it just sucks! How the hell do you beat this stupid mission! I have tried it ALL the best I ever got was 6th or 5th! Just one level and I've beat the game!

[mrwmw]

OMG JUST MADE IT TO 3TH ohh man im soo happy

[torozambrano]

I spent 5 fuc*** hours trying to past this test and the only thing i got was bronze.. my congratulations to all of you that have won this..

[juan193]

i had the chance to gold this at my friends house.. it was damn hard with the six axis so i brought ma wheel LOL i think its better :) and did it in the 3rd try going dirty as this guy did xD

[Ragzz1234]

how come i cant quick tune my ride?

also .. a mans gotta do a what a man gotta do... in this case, drive like this loal :D

[jraybay]

I finished third on this challenge pro settings and I said fuck it lol. I cleared the challenge so f*ck it lol

[NikaoM3]

Whats your driving settings? No matter what I put for traction control, ESP etc... I always find the car being held back, and if I turn them all off, then I oversteer and spin out as to my agressive driving. Got any tips?

[jraybay]

Hey man I had the same problem as you. I find that all the cars ar shit except the nissan gtr. so I use that because you can just crank the wheel and throw it into the corner at almost any speed. I used it to beat the s class challenges :P . But My advice is to turn up your suspension to 6 or 7 and turn your damper up to 5 or 6. I used that on pro settings and it did pretty good :D . I love a stiff suspension :D

[Ragzz1234]

but dude how can you quicktune if you havnt completed all the A race events? it's soooooooo hard to finish this without quick tune.. I just bought this and a g25 yesterday :(

[jraybay]

You have to beat all A races to quick tune I believe. it's very easy to beat the A class. what car are you use now?? I didn't use a wheel just a controller xD lol.

[Ragzz1234]

im using the ford gt 06 or something... and daaamn im having a hard time! i used hours last night trying to beat a-9 and i have allmost all a class events on bronze xD

[jraybay]

yea any american muscle car is a bad choice unless you are at a speedway lol. I have the gt 06 too and the handling sucks even when i tune it myself. You need a Japanese car because they are the best in gt5 . They handle the best at least. I used a nissan gtr to beat pretty much a and s class I also used a lotus elise tuned lol. You've no won an A race? (:| Use the lotus or gtr and let me know how it go.

[Ragzz1234]

alright dude, i knew that gt was shit :P but i actually managed to drive it pretty damn good hehe i also just finished A-10 and only need to get some credits for a-9 with the ferrari :D

[jraybay]

What do you expect it a ford xD . Yeas after awhile you get the hang of the car whether it's good or bad. BUt it's alot more easier if it just handled well while going fast :P . I used the lotus tuned bought from the "concepts by gran turismo" showroom and the Nissan gtr to beat the a class and s -class pretty much xD .I recommend using the gtr though you can really push it and it will turn without much under steer/over steer.

[Ragzz1234]

hahha xD dude i just tried multiple times with the nissan gtr AND the ferrari 430 and i fail miserably :( i think i need some quicktunes because i suck at it and dont know what im doing looool :P

[jraybay]

One more thing. I JUST GOT THE F2007 LAST NIGHT!  YAYAYAYYAYAYAYAYAYA X^D . Took me forever (:^| .

what challenges are you s tuck on? And if you're not so good you can always turn off the physics to arcade/regular and it's easier because you don't have to corect the car as much thus making you go faster. Once you get to tune your car it will be easier :P .

[572019412]

@jraybay tanks for that

[jraybay]

For wat?

[Ragzz1234]

I just read through the GT5P forums on playstationdotcom and found some dude with a clio tune that got gold! ill pm you the tune dude! i think this is the one im gonna take :D

[jraybay]

Yeah I know about the tuned cars.I used a lotus 111r tuned and got a few gold/silver lol xD . But good for him because I couldn't get gold in that clio it didn't work for me :P

[Ragzz1234]

hehe okay dude keep it cool! :P

[IMSIKW1THIT]

FUCK YEA, THATS HOW I FEEL RIGHT NOW, i sold my xbox 360 for ps3 and im on this race right now with the logitech g25 racing wheel and im goin fuckin crazy. lol

[IMSIKW1THIT]

I JUST BEAT IT LOL HAHAHAHAHA

[Chocopr17]

I have the game and I have an HDTV with the HDMI cable and the game does not look like this. Graphics look regular. Do you use a specific setting?

[animalica]

I still use a 70cm 4:3 Philips CRT [+10 years) and this replay was captured just with a Composite and not a RGB cable.

The Composite cable got RCA jacks while the RGB cable got a Scart connector - and the last one didn`t fit to the PCMCIA capture card of my old laptop.

[Kendogger22]

this is the stupidest f'n race! you have to cheat to win

[snerp]

Hahahaha that's funny man! That's exactly how I drive. There is no other way to win this stupid race.

[liebz1]

ive been trying to beat this race all night...new game plan haha

[liljon3]

it would be easier to follow if you had the camera behind the car rather than this cinematic view.
