Which episode was this on? It was cut abruptly at the end. Was that it?

EDIT: OK, a more complete version is now available on Google Video :icon32:

clarkson's a bad@ss. i'd really like to know the final time as well, although perhaps he off'd the circuit?

you know, towards the end when he starts talking about fear and brakes failing/tires falling off, i wonder if his fears would be lessened if he actually wore frickin' helmet?

I think his time was 1:57 or something, he didn't improve much over it all.

I think it was 7x06 btw.

In other words, GT4 is NOTHING like real Life. Which is known.

GT4 is wank. Nothing has changed since GT2...

I was thinking the same thing... I figured it would be a track rule or something that helmets must be worn

I remember that track, I played it at a playstation competition. He did that track at 1:41 and my best time was like 1:30 but it was nothing compared to some people who did it at 1:16-1:20.

i think i would be able to do it in the mid 2's with a decent car.. :/

buy me a NSX and lets test it

Post by **+JuggerNaut+** » Sat Dec 31, 2005 12:22 am

mid 2's? i don't think so.

Post by **AmIdYfReAk** » Sat Dec 31, 2005 12:27 am

Hummmm, i just found a car that is comparable to mine.. and i must say... i got some interesting resaults.

i drive a 1990 S13 240SX rated at a massive 125hp..

i drove a 1988 S13 silvia Q rated at a MASSIVE 130HP and pulled a 2:03 lap.

i am at a loss. the nsx should be alot quicker then a S13 chassis, allthough i wasent fighting the S13 as much around the turns when compared to the NSX.. meh

We should start laying down challenges of times on tracks with cars.

Post by **+JuggerNaut+** » Sat Dec 31, 2005 12:32 am

sure, i don't mind losing.

Post by **+JuggerNaut+** » Sat Dec 31, 2005 12:33 am

i remember Ferrari F355 for the console of consoles which is the Dreamcast, had an online ranking system per track. GT4 have anything like that?

No all the cars were unlocked.

They went to universities acorss Canada, and held this competition. I don’t recall what car I actually used. Nissan something, but I did get a free shirt and hat. It was also a wheel and it was pretty hard to steer, never played the game before that either. You had 4 chances to try. The winner for each university got a psp and games, they also got to compete against the rest of the universities for paid tuition for a year. Prizes were kind of shitty actually.

Ah here it is, Campus Cup 2005.

It wasn't a stock car but a racing one, it was yellow and it was a Nissan. Sorry not really into cars all that much.
