Finally got one

It appeared in the used car dealership last night for the second time been looking for a week or so.
As im well past level 13 now i can finally buy it so painted it yellow added a turbo and a few other bits then took it out for a thrash

recon it needs a taller roll bar though!

Why Oh why did I get an XBOX instead of a PS3? It's about time GT5 was licenced for the XBOX360

I'm level 18 and not seen a single bloody one! My mate had 2 so kindly gave one of his to me,mind you I had to buy A focus st to get the bright orange paint code lol mine is tuned to the max & also extended the gears to make them longer,maybe we should have a locost seven online race???

But it doesn't have GT5!

theduck - 11/1/11 at 10:06 PM

But xbox has Forza 3

Daddylonglegs - 11/1/11 at 10:09 PM

How does that rate against GT5?

indykid - 11/1/11 at 10:11 PM

GT5 has turbo'd cars with 4 into 1 exhaust manifolds!

now that's a level of detail you just can't fault....

locoR1 - 11/1/11 at 10:39 PM

locostbuilders online race sounds good if enough people have the caterham, they arnt great cars for normal races but a load of them would be great fun

my online name is locor1 same as on here!

either win the paint code or when you sign in online you get given paint as a gift,or buy a car in that colour which enables you to use it maybe a focus rs for your colour?

and pc!

Can you get the sports brakes too? Don't appear to be able to see them anywhere...

loggyboy - 12/1/11 at 03:04 PM

Just wait for Forza 4 - I expect it to beat GT5 hands down.

GT5 will never be licensed on the Xbox 360. No-one would buy PS3's anymore.

Besides my favourite quote at the moment is 'No Halo, no point'.

It's just that you can't see the 1 into 4 opposite of a collector (whatever that would be called) behind the NSF wheel!

Dont think it's in there as an upgrade part - just the brake force/balance controller. I guess as fade/overheating/wear presumably isn't modelled, and 'standard' brakes are more than powerful enough to lock up the wheels if ABS is turned off, even with sticky tyres, modeling upgraded brakes wouldn't have made a difference. If you get the controller and dial it up both front and rear, that's basically the same as having uber brakes. The cars certainly stop well.

Just been checking it out on t'internet, looks like it may be worth the wait

Apparently F1 2010 is supposed to be high on realism?

theduck - 12/1/11 at 08:53 PM

f1 2010 IS FANTASTIC but glitchy
