Nice tip NZO! I've noticed that the drag wasn't realistic, but it sounds like this will make things perfect!

I have the 1st version logitech steering wheel (the blue one) and i think its cool the only problem is that its a bit sensative steering wise and can only turn 90 degrees but its still fun to use in the game.

Things I noticed

1. Game totatly kicks ***
2. Impreza's understear like a motherf'er, it allows you to take a way shallow line. Lancers over stear like a motherf'er.
3. The old cars a sweet, Buick GNX ++++, original Tempest GTO 64' +++++++, Shelby GT350+++++, Old *** Subaru 360 battle wagon ++++++++++++++++
4. Honda/ Acura has way to many cars, ( there are 20 NSX's in the game)
5. Big difference from GT3, if you are on the breaks and you turn the wheel you are screwed. In GT3 you could break, turn, and gas at the same time and could walk through turns.
6. Game play's a lot better with all traction control, and break asists off.
7. Don't think they need the Holden Monerro and the new GTO. that takes up two cars on the game that suck, and it's the same damn thing.
8. The race that goes through the narrow street's is way to stupid to keep up with if you have a car faster then a focus, no passing except for 1 section, things jump out and bite you a lot.
9. The japanese made the SRT-4 a huge dog in this game, they made it a neon with a body kit, don't get me wrong, I hate the things, but this car is a huge turd, the torque steer is rediculous, and it isn't even competitive stock against anything that the car actually could compete with in real life.
10. Must get Ford GT40 sometime soon.
11. Toyota Caldinia, in real life the car is bad ***, in the game it might as well not be AWD, have a turbo, or lets face it, it might as well not be in the game. Huge dissapointment, I couldn't wait to see how this car was in the game, and it sucks to say the least.
12. I think I need to go play more, hahaha

That was the hardest part to adjust to in 4. I was getting frustrated, plowing every turn, until I figured out the change.

if you're talking about the first rally thing where u race a celica and if u hit buildings or the car, u get a 5 second penalty....just get any car with about 400+ hp (I used a Nismo 400R or something of that sort that I won from a race) and buy Nitrous for it. You can just stay behind the car and wait for the straightaway and then pull like a **** once u hit the Nawwz

Btw, winning both the normal and reverse race will give you a Cadillac Cien. By far my favorite car in my GT4 garage. What a sweet car. Handles nicely, 750 some odd hp, add the $13.5k engine mod and u get like 900 hp. Add Nitrous and the car can top out at like 254 mph



One thing I want to gripe about this game is the AI cars. They seem to stick to their racing line, no matter if you are in their way or not. It's like they don't even know you're next to them and they just run into you.
