The 'ring revisited

Just for fun and out of boredom I booted up Sports Car GT the other day and tried the add-on Nurburgring I found a while back. ~6:39 with a fully equiped Porsche GT1. Doing absolutely nonsence things like coming out of the Karrousel over 80Mph Bergwerk at 70Mph not dropping below 90Mph between The Karrousel and the present end. Pure nuts and ludicrious lateral G's. Great fun. the only problem was the low frame rate. The above time is the full length including the 180 degree turn onto the second straight.

nice ! it was a great game back then, but it doesn´t get my attention anymore. it´s goot, but not GPL :) speaking about the ring, did you tried it on GL legends ? lots of fun !

Slight error above. The 90Mph was from the Karrousel until just after the bridge before the last three turns before the straight. Obviously the turn just after that bridge could not be done at 90 in any car. The mini Karrousel right afterwards would be tough too. GP legends you mean? yes. The most fun version has to be Viper Racing IMHO with the Enzo add-on. Nice predictible power oversteer coming out of the turns. There only seems to be the GPL version in any of these games. Viper racing uses it, as does Sports Car GT. Identical tracks even down to the signs. I'd switch to newer games, but I have undiagnosed problems with my better 3d card. Locks up windows completely once the desktop shows. Have to turn acceleration completely off to stop it.
