[@Julian_Pepper]

Yeah, the BHP specs in the shop aren't super accurate in Gran Turismo 2. I thought 404 was too low for the Cusco Impreza GT300, so I went and looked. For the cars you used in the comparison, the actual values they have if you buy them (or win them in some cases) are as follows: the Silvia has 413, the RX-7 has 446, and the Impreza has 453. So yeah, that is the explanation for the pace of the GT300 Impreza: It seems like it has the most power of because it actually does, the store page just doesn't indicate that for some reason.

[@ShadowOfCicero]

Yeah, as I recall both the Impreza V and the R32 are billed as 276 in the shop, but in the garage they were more like 285 and 293, respectively.

[@Julian_Pepper]

@@mrxbas That is strange, I've always experienced the RX-7 being second only to the Impreza whenever I do this event. It could be FPS, since physics are FPS dependent, and you're playing with 60 FPS, while I always play at 30 FPS. I can only guess that the 60 FPS patch is affecting the physics in a way that's messing with the RX-7's success somehow?

32:40 A long time ago, a Pulsar admired the Cappuccino when it became a legend that is now known as the Gigachino. The Pulsar witnessed the Gigachino's ascension to the Ultrachino. The Ultrachino chose the Hachiroku as its successor to continue the Gran Turismo World League but it was defeated by the dreaded Impreza. The Impreza saw its comrades got defeated by the Ultrachino so it took matters on its own wheels. Unfortunately, the Ultrachino did not race so the Impreza took the next best car, the Hachiroku which the Ultrachino chose to be its successor. The Pulsar felt a great despair saw its idol's successor got defeated. The Ultrachino began its seach for its worthy successor and took revenge from the dreaded Impreza. The Pulsar, being there at the beginning and admired the Gigachino which is now the Ultrachino, volunteered to be its successor and win the Gran Turismo World League. The Pulsar trained hard for the World League not only to win, but to beat the GT-One and the R390. Having proven that it can beat both of them, with all of the racing data it gathered, the upgrades it received and the racing modifications, the Pulsar made its decision to become the Gran Turismo World Champion. This is the story of the legend that is the *GIGAPULSAR.*

[@ShadowOfCicero]

37:00 I can think of two reasons you beat them at Super Speedway. From experience, I suspect they take Turn 1 too cautiously. The other thing I know for sure is that their transmissions are too wide for that course. My lap times with the R30 Silhouette are better than those for the Unisia Jecs or even the HKS Drag for that very reason.

[@mrxbas]

It seems like it, because their downforce levels should be way higher than mine…

[@admontblanc]

The R30 is a very powerful car though, and all the FR Skylines are way better than the 4WD ones because of superior steering and lower weight giving them a more favorable power to weight ratio. I remember feeling disapointed by a lot of these 500+ BHP, 4WD GT500 and LM race cars, while most of the ones with MR or FR drivetrain are top class machines. The Dodge Concept Car LM, for example, can beat all of these events easily, except the ones it's too powerful to enter, you only fight a little harder in the high speed courses, but that is easily made up for with slight gearbox adjustments.

[@ShadowOfCicero]

@@admontblanc The Silhouette gets destroyed off the line by both of the ones I mentioned (and for that matter, everything else in that particular race). Its saving grace is that if you momentum carry Turn 1, you will reach your top speed of 190 mph right as you reach the braking point for Turn 2. I can't reach 190 with the other two, but I can't help but wonder what would happen if I set their transmissions to 195 instead of the HKS Drag's 210 or the Unisia's 225. I don't have the save file to test this theory.

[@ShadowOfCicero]

Your line about the light weight made me have to go look it up. In strictly power-to-weight, the Unisia just edges out the Silhouette, and the HKS Drag destroys it.

Its BORING to see gigachino again and again especially on GT2 where you can abuse the weakness of the game to limits. Try the new challenge in FF cars only instead of FR and MR cars on 100% completion, this will give you the definition of what real challenge should be. I already beat this game with 70% on Gigachino while rest of them was just meme cars build.

[@saber5821]

the ability to make a racecar out of a regular car you bought was something special EDIT if you think the gt 300s were bad in game they are closer to what the gt500s were back in the day now IRL GT300 2024 = probably closer to 500 and the GT500s = probably closer to 700
