I just bought a Ford GT and have it up to 740hp which means i can beat anyone on the strait away but since its MR it sucks on turns espicaly with all that HP :P. Ohwell its looks so shinny and nice so i had to have it

No. Burnout 3 sucks. Any racing fan that has burnout 3 cant be called a racing fan. Burnout isnt even a racing game, its cars blowing up. Very un-technical. Quoted from gamespot forums, "If you are 10, get burnout 3, if your older than 10, get GT4". Burnout sucks compared to this.

I dont even know why you are comparing the two. I like burnout 3 because I prefer to blow crap up. I am older than 10 so If i want a simulation I'll step outside and get into my car.

I have come to realise that the Ford GT sucks, it looks all prity and it sounds nice but it sucks to drive. Maybe its me and MR cars dont get along but bah the Ford Gt is the only MR car that likes to stay on the grass more so then on the road

still, in my opinion, GT4 is the better game, to me its more like driving, not pressing X and thats it... thats all burnout is, you press X, and move the thumbstick, not like drving at all, well, atleast i dont think so. GT4 requires skill to play, there is a brake button, aand you actually use it

. Also, i dont think your car is a GT or a Viper... i may be wrong, you may have been one of the lucky 7 to get a GT. If so, could you please tell me the numbers for next weeks lottery?

edit: Secondraven, how do you come off the turns? full throttle, or ease onto the gas? I had this problem with my Mustang GTO, but i started feathering on the gas, and i came of with no problem, also, have you tuned the GT that much?

OneManArmy · 2005-03-01, 05:16 PM

thats fine if simulations your bag, but I prefer crashing things.

and no I dont have a viper but I do have a firebird and there are plenty of drag strips and autocross events around here that I can enter. so

Man, you guys are GT n00bs, heh.

MR cars are the most balanced, if anything it should be the easiest to corner with. If you are one the grass a lot, you should probably lay off the gas a bit, and soften up the suspension a bit to suit your lead foot style of driving, it will keep twitchyness down.

Also, I can tell yuo guys don't plan your lines prior to hitting the track. in theory if you take the corner perfectly, you should be able to come off full throttle every single time, what lies ahead permitting.

Mag-Mower · 2005-03-01, 06:04 PM

wow. I just got the Cadilac Ciena, and the Ford GT. Best cars ever. The GT has the best cornering out of all my cars, it turns the best, best response, i love this car, its great. Then the ciena, wow.... just wow, so fast, so beautiful, yeah, its a cadilac, but i dont give a damn if it drives like this!

So you beat all of gran turismo mode for him, including the liscence tests?

Are you insane?

Keeping the wheel straight is the only way to prevent you from spinning out. Not drifting. Hence why your lines need to be good.

Played at a friends house and I didnt like it. I wasnt able to figure out where my guns were and how I could shoot people.
