GT5 SubSim in a Reasonably Priced Car

ajrimmer42 · 12-22-10, 01:47 PM

While we all wait eagerly for the GT5 Tournament next year, would anyone be interested in doing a 'Star in a Reasonably Priced Car' type thing. i.e every week we announce a car to do a lap of the Top Gear Test Track in and we all post our times on here? Seen it on another forum and it seemed to work quite well. Any takers?

OK there seems to be a bit of interest so might as well make a start. I reckon the easiest way to do this would be to just go through the Arcade cars seeing as everyone has access to them. And, to make it fair everyone should run a max of 3 laps around the Top Gear Test Track in Arcade Time Trial mode with the following settings:

Transmission - Up to you
Front Tyres - Sports: Medium
Rear Tyres - Sports: Medium
Driving Line - Up to you
Traction Control - 5
Skid Recovery - On
Active Steering - Off
ASM - Off
ABS - 4
Grip Reduction - Low
Mechanical Damage - None

Right, here goes:

FIAT 500 F '68

1. Lionclaw - 2:09.121
2. ajrimmer42 - 2:13.998
3.
4.
5.

Ack! The Fiat!

Oh, alright then. Will see what times I can achieve after I have finished work, eaten and made merry.

I saved a replay of my attempt.

Here is my time.
