I beat the Formula 1 championship over the weekend. I raced 1/2 the time and I raced on B-spec the other 1/2. (Yeah, I'm lazy . . . sucks having a career. )

I've also raced in 6 of the endurance races . . again being lazy and letting B-spec race. (The fun part is starting a race before bed, and when I get home the next day have some cash and a new car!! )

Lalo-

B-spec is your car controlled by the computer, but one still needs to build up "points" for your B-spec driver in order for the computer to control the car in a fast and smooth manner.

It also allows you to race at x3 speed so the races don't take as long. So that in the 24 hour races one can complete the race in ~8 hours. It also allows you to set the pace of your driver (slow, cruise, steady, fast, push it). If your driver doesn't have much skill and you set the pace for 'push-it' the driver will drive the car off the course and into the sand, gravel, etc.

I can drive faster than B-spec, but for expedient purposes I like using B-spec in some races.

Lalo-

Yeah it's in GT4. Some people think it is too lazy to use, but I'm not sitting around racing, in real time, a 24 Hour race!!

Zoran-

Haven't purchased or won the Suzuki . . . Getting ready to start my Rally races in the next couple of weeks.

I only need to purchase one more car that I 'wanted', the 787B. I've got all the other Group C cars and the 1969 GT40. I've got $7.5M sitting around burning a hole in my pocket, and the Suzuki may just fill that need. (Though I don't know at the moment . . Zoran, can you buy the Suzuki or do you have to win it?)

You have to win Suzuki. Its 2nd last race at Special Condition Events. Its not that hard if you have good car. I used Ford Focus, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and Ford Escort for dirt races, and Lancia Delta for snow races. I think I have around 10 Rally Cars and total of around 80.

By the way, I used to have Mazda 787B. I didn't like it. If you passed 50% of the game (I'm currently at 56%) you'll get really fast Jaguar. Its faster than both Mazda 787B and Toyota GT-One.

Did anyone passed Gran Turismo World Championship (last race at Professional Events)? What car did you use?

Yeah, you have to win Shelby Manufacturers Race Event. I got 66 GT350 but I still haven't used it.

Got a question for the guys that have already picked up GT4. Have any of you tried hooking up a USB printer to your PS2 and printing out carshots from the photo mode? I was reading about it on Gamespy and they mentioned hooking up an Epson printer. Just curious if anyones done this, is it difficult to get to work, and will any USB printer work?
