    Default Gran Turismo 5: ImportAtlanta Star in a Reasonably Priced Car

    I got this idea from FinalGear.com. I think it'd be a fun competition among forum members with the game. Just like they've got the SIARPC Leader Board on Top Gear, we could set one up here. We all use the same car with the same race parameters and try to set the best time. First, you must unlock the Top Gear Test Track for Arcade Mode by completing the first level of the Top Gear Challenge in GT Mode.

    Rules & Regulations
    Car: Honda CR-Z
    Track: Top Gear Test Track.
    Assists: Everything off, including ABS. Brake balance should be as standard.
    Modifications: None
    Transmission: Manual.
    Tires: Comfort Soft
    Timer: The time must be valid, meaning no red timers for cutting corners, hitting barriers.
    Verification: Not needed, but try to save & upload replay or post a picture if you have a really fast lap.

    There is no limit to the amount of times you post, I'll just take your fastest time. I'll keep editing this post with lap times whenever they appear. What do you guys think?

    I'm down. I'll get on tonight and run some laps in the swift and see what I cant get it down to. Stopping is kind of moot, id just roll with a rolling start.

    I guess that makes sense. I think the FinalGear guys were trying to get it as close to the Top Gear challenge as possible. They even had a stipulation of only using the dashboard view. I'll change that.

    What do you guys think about using the Honda CR-Z?

    Awesome. I'll post a time up for myself. I'm alright at the game so it should be a good middle ground.

    My wife bought GT5 for me while I was in Basic. I'm on leave for 2 weeks, and I'll finally get to play when I get home later today!

    I'll give it a try while I still have this sorry excuse of a "Real driving simulation".

    First lap time? or Rolling lap start?

    Rolling lap, and do your fastest time whatever it is. That's how I did it.
