I want a steering wheel so bad, but the one I want is the logitech one that full price is $150

Kiss that good bye! You'll spend that up on daipers in the first few weeks of Jr.'s life! Besides, you won't have time to play anymore for awhile.

Right when I turned on my TV today at 5am, the race had finished.

Yea, you get the Gran Turismo F1 car

I was going to go for the 8th endurance right now, but my brother decided to finally play Shadow of the Collosus. It looks awesome!

I beat that 24h Nurburgring endurance in the 2005 Mustang (highly modified of course) last year. Probably wasn't the greatest idea since I had to drive about 4 laps to the B-spec drivers 1 lap. He'd get so far behind and I would have to catch up. I don't remember how long I left the playstation on for that, but now I sure know the nurburgring well.

I think I'm only around 75% complete so I have a ways to go. I still have 3 licence tests to get gold in and they are in the easier tests. I feel like an idiot cause I have trouble driving the slow cars for entire laps.

What color F1 car did you guys get? I got a blue one but orange would have been nice.

I completed 91% of game before my memory card died. I hate doing everything all over again.

I can't get into GT4 anymore, in fact, I have grown to like Forza more and more....

A couple years ago I would have called myself blasphemous , but after playing Forza and PGR3, I just can't stand the lack of driftability(new word) of the GT4 engine. And I believe I am also 67% complete on GT4

You CAN drift in GT4... it just takes more skill and know-how. You have to change a bunch of settings.

You see... it takes more skill to do it on GT4, just like in real life.
It is less "fun", but it is way more satisfying if you can do it.

I drift all the time in Mario Kart DS

I wish I could transfer replays to my computer. I have an almost impossibly long (for the game) sideways drift around the really long turn in Tokyo in a Ford GT and it just keeps going and going, then as I correct to come out of the drift at the end of the turn it bites in and the back comes around and kills me. I was using sports tires, soft up front and hard in back, if you don't take some power adders off when you do this the car is useless.

What car did you guys use in the "Like the Wind" race?
It's the one that is just laps over the test course...so top speed is the most important factor

The Suzuki Pikes Peak maybe....
That thing is ridicolous with upgrades.

The Viper GTS is freaking fast too. I recall somewhere around 250 mph....
