Real life Gran Turismo battle
« on: January 26, 2008, 05:23:29 PM »
Track - Tsukuba, 5 laps
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5VwdGILuoQ

Someone ripped this from the DVD issue of Best Motoring


Starting grid...

1st place:  911 Turbo
2nd place: 911 GT-3
3rd place:  Honda NSX-R
4th place:  Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (bare bones variant of the Gallardo)
5th place:  R-35 GT-R (a newcomer )

hmmm are they trying to give the GT-R handicap as much as possible?:noid

The video is in foreign language:noid   For those who want to skip the video, read see the summary below

(warning: spoilers...)


























































The TC-200 5 lap summary

* The Honda NSX-R is way underpowered compare to its contemporaries.  But can still keep up with the group.

* 911 Turbo and 911 GT-3 were thrashed by  R35 GT-R.

* The ~$70,000 R35 GT-R is on par with Gallardo Superleggera.

Could be nice to see a F550 in that group.

F-550 has too much rice.  They should have added the new and improved z06 with softer suspension.

The old Z06 they tested in Best Motoring was only as good as the Mugen Civic Type-R on that track.
