Game took me about two hours to install, and from a disc! I guess there have been some updates since that disc was new, seemed like I downloaded the entire game. Took so long I didn't even play it, I was ready to get back into GTAO!

Damn 2 hours, I was about to start downloading this tonight, but it sounds like an all day issue.

Had some connection issues for the 1st time in GT6 online play.

 

Still was a lot of good racing, and rikster is slowly but surely getting better and better, Dodge still loves a good wipeout in the Monza "S"-section, and I am the ever-grateful benefactor of DC's final lap hiccups.

Even had some randoms join us, until dodge selected the Daytona roadcourse which sent them running scared. Not sure why people are so averse to that track, it is a really good one, not all that tricky.

 

Anyway, video highlights....sorry for the poor framerate, not sure what went wrong

I will have to pick up an M4 asap. It was simply not possible to catch you in those other cars.

Not that I didn't have better cars to use but knowing the programmers, they always seem to have their biases and reflect them in game. I remember when the Ford GT was practically untouchable in GT4....game head had bought one a couple years earlier.

Some truly awesome racing action in this week's races along with a few snoozers as well. 

And then this happened:

....the Ford GT really isn't a great car at all....

 

....to which I thought to me-self:

HOLY CRAP the Lamborghini Countach is AMAZING. Despite making tons of driving errors I absolutely tore up Silverstone in this monster of a car. WICKED fun to drive.

Found it! It's Plymouth XNR Ghia Roadster '60, costs 1.000.000 Cr.

 

Compared to 19.800 Cr. that I payed for my Honda Civic Type R, I'd say it was a waste of money. :P

Lol yeah that's it.

 

I can assure you all that I did not buy this car, I can only assume it was a gift car.

Yeah it's one of the first gift cars you receive if you jump right into the license tests and racing leagues.

 

I knew it was an early 60's Plymouth concept car, but couldn't remember the name.

More excellent racing this week. A couple of races in the snow, some lesser raced tracks that provided excellent racing, and some flatout high-speed pedal-to-the-metal slipstream racing that ended up with an unbelieveably close margin of victory of .004 seconds!! I have NEVER in 15 years of racing Gran Turismo seen a finish that close!

What PP limit did you go with on Special Stage and what top speeds were you doing?

 

Snow racing was fun though, even managed to get a lap in the lead until I went sideways and parked in the fence. :lol:
