====================== 1.INTRODUCTION (GTINT) ======================

This game marks Polyphony Digital's fourth outing in the famed Gran Turismoseries. The GT games are generally viewed as somee of the best racing games onthe market. It has been stated that this installment will have vastly improvedAI(we all know how that works out) over its predecessors. This guide will beused mainly to give general information about this game, but I will go intodepth on certain aspects. The game has been confirmed to have over 700 carsfrom auto makers spanning Europe, North America, and Asia.

*If you have a Gran Turismo 3 save on your Memory Card, then you can transferup to 100,000 credits to Gran Turismo 4 at the start of the game giving you110,000 to start with*

There are two different modes with which to race in Gran Turismo 4.

------A-spec - This is the normal racing mode. The user has complete control over------ the car. You will have to be aware of your position as well as the position of other drivers as you tear around the tracks.

------B-spec - This mode is a new addition to Gran Turismo 4. Your car is controlled------ by an AI which you can influence. There are five different settings for the personality of the AI ranging conservative to road rage-like aggresive. There is also an option to have the driver take a pit stop on the next available opportunity.

You can switch between the two modes in the pit.

=========================== 3.DRIVING MECHANICS (GTMEC) ===========================

This section is mainly for beginners to the Gran Turismo games or racing ingeneral. I will cover a few basic areas that can help improve a beginner's laptimes. However, as this is a general FAQ, I wont go too in-depth in the skillsand techniques covered here. Advanced Gran Turismo players probably won't findthis section too interesting.One more note; Polyphony Digital hypes this game as having 'realistic physics'.Don't think that just because you can drive a 1000hp car in the game doesn'tmean that you can handle one in real life. Nothing can replace real lifeexperience. Don't try anything that may put you or others at risk.

==============================================================================

============================= 3a. TRANSMISSION TYPE (GTTRT) =============================

------Manual - In manual transmissions, the driver must switch from gear to gear him/------ herself. A lot of experienced drivers and racers use this type of tranny because of the added control it gives. Manuals also give faster acceleration than automatic transmissions. In day to day driving, more people use automatics for the ease of use in traffic and there is less maintenance/skill required.----Auto - With this type of transmission, the car's cpu does all of the shifting---- for you. The shifting is a lot smoother for inexperienced drivers. Some high-end performance racers use this type so they can worry about other things going on in the car. It is argued that for performance cars, an auto transmission can get from gear to gear faster than a manual.

==============================================================================

===================== 3b.DRIVETRAIN (GTDRT) =====================

FF - This is Front Engine/Front Wheel Drive. These type of cars aren't very stable under hard acceleration. They also have understeer. For these reasons, most FF sports cars are not considered serious racing machines. The weight of the engine is positioned over the wheels that drive the car, so there isn't a loss of traction often.

Understeer - When turning, the force that pushes you toward the outside of a turn. Cars with understeer are less likely to spin out so this is considered a beginner's drivetrain.

FR - This is Front Engine/Rear Wheel Drive. This is the drivetrain that a lot of high end sports cars and racing bred cars are made of. First it provides a lot a traction in straight line acceleration since the weight

of the car shifts over the rear wheels some under full throttle. While cornering, the car will invoke oversteer.

Oversteer - A characteristic of rear wheel drive cars. When cornering the car's tail tends to slide due to the rear wheels providing the acceleration. This drivetrain makes it easier for experienced drivers to whip/slide through turns, but novice drivers will have a tendency to lose control or spin out.

MR - This is Mid Engine/Rear Wheel Drive. Some supercars/exotics use this drivetrain. It benefits by having equal weight distribution to all wheels (because of the engine mounted just behind/in the area of the cockpit). The rear wheels(which drive the car forward) in an MR car always have some traction on them, making them a little more stable in cornering than FR cars. They will still invoke understeer, but not as much as an FR car.

AWD - This is All Wheel Drive(the engine is usually in front). AWD cars are the most stable. They are great for unexperienced drivers. There is always traction in one wheel or another, making them ideal for dirt/off- road racing. Due to this traction, they can be slightly hard to turn at times.

RR - This is Rear Engine/Rear Wheel Drive. This is the rarest type of drivetrain. Since the weight of the engine is over the rear wheels, traction when accelerating is amazing(see how fast a Ruf can get 0-100). This drivetrain can be detrimental with oversteer if you don't take care with the throttle when cornering. They will also wear out the rear tires amazingly quick, so they're not ideal for endurance races.

==============================================================================

=================================== 3c.BASIC DRIVING TECHNIQUES (GTBAS) ===================================

--------Drafting - This is one car following closely behind another in its slipstream.-------- In daily highway driving, this can be used for fuel efficiency when traveling long distances. In racing, its used for fuel efficiency and a speed burst. The cars can travel a few mph faster because they share the same 'pocket of air'.

---------- Slipstream - This is the 'passageway' of air that flows behind a car. This ---------- slipstream effect works in the following way. As a single car races around a track, it creates a "bubble" of high-density air in front of it and a bubble of low-density air behind. The difference in the pressure between these two air pockets creates drag, the force that impedes motion. This drag force limits the top speed the car can attain. But if a second car pulls up behind the first, the slipstreams created by the the two merge so that the first car losses its aft bubble and the second car loses its front bubble. This effect reduces the drag force each

car experiences and both are able to travel slightly faster.

Another use of drafting occurs when a slower car pulls in behind a faster car and takes advantage of the first car's slipstream. This has the effect of helping the second car go faster while forcing the faster car to work harder thereby narrowing the performance gap between the two opponents.

But eventually, the second car needs to pass the first in order to make a run at the victory. Drafting can also assist in this effort if the second driver can take advantage of the "slingshot effect." By dropping back from the first car a little, the low- pressure bubble aft of the first car then "sucks" the second car forward. The second driver then gains a little more speed as he pulls out to the side to pass the first car. By the same token, the first car loses speed as the low-density bubble is fully reformed aft of his car.

---------Cornering - As a general practice, you want to brake early entering corners.--------- Braking earlier will allow you to accelerate earlier coming out of the corner. Some really good drivers can overcome poor handling when cornering by knowing when to brake and accelerate. The ideal braking point is dependent on the car and the corner. Practice with one car will help you figure out its limits.

Start wide upon entering the corner and hit the brake. Turn the wheel, and accelerate through the apex of the turn. Exit wide, and you have completed a good turn. Remember, in slow, out fast.

---------- Understeer - This is a car not turning very much in relation to how much the ---------- wheel is turned at high speeds. This is a characteristic of FWD cars and some AWD. Generally, understeer is not very good for racing on tracks with lots of tight, twisty turns. --------- Oversteer - This is a car turning a lot in relation to how much the wheel is --------- turned. This is a characteristic of RWD and some AWD cars. Cars with oversteer are easier to whip/slide through corners, but are much easier to spin out. That is the reason why FWD is considered a beginner's drivetrain and RWD is for more experienced drivers.

==============================================================================

=================== 3d.DRIFTING (GTDRI) ===================

Drifting is the concept of using the brake and throttle to slide the back endof your car around a turn. In road racing, I prefer to go through turns thenormal way. However, this technique is indespensible in rally racing. Tostart your car drifting, you must brake early when entering a turn. Next, cutthe wheel a little harder into the turn than normal. Now, press on the gas tomake the back end slide around the turn in a wider arc. As you gain experience

you'll be able to tell when to press the gas and if you need to adjust theangle of your car mid-drift.

Feint Drifting - This is turning the car slightly toward the opposite way before entering a turn to initiate the drift.Ex. - When making a left turn, the driver can move the wheel slightly to the right before beginning the left turn.

Using the car's weight balance and power is the right way to drift. Using theemergency brake to initiate a drift is less efficient than a properly donedrift.

==============================================================================

====================== 3e.DRIVING TIPS(GTDTI) ======================

These are general driving tips. They will help out beginners along withplayers who are trying to pass the license exams.

-If you find yourself spinning out a lot due to oversteer, try moving the brake balance toward the front and softening the front springs

-If you are having trouble controlling your car, then maybe you should scale back the horsepower a bit. It is better to have a slower car that's controllable than a powerful one that can't stay on th road. This may be especially true for beginners in rally races.

From LuNAcY3351:

-Braking too much to a lower speed is better than going off the course

-When accelerating right after a turn in a straight road, don't try to immediately "balance" the car so that it goes straight. Let it run for a while, and if it's going off the course, SLOWLY turn towards the middle of the road. It affects the accelerating speed especially if ASM is on.

-The red blinking light that appears right before a turn is the "recommended gear" where you should brake until. It is just for beginners, and you might drive better using it at first. Later you'll learn to disobey it.

-when you got off the course into the grass or sand in a high speed, do not try to immediatly turn back to the course. Try to run as straight as possible back into the course so that you won't lose control after you got onto the road.

To transfer 100K credits or passed B and A license exams from GT3, go toHome------>Status and press start.

Garage Erasing Bug -

Quoted from TLSBill of www.gamefaqs.com:

"This is gonna be rare I'm sure, but wanted to warn people. Just in case.If you insert a DIFFERENT memory card into the system and save from the "HOME"save function, it doesn't save the garage. It will ask you several questions(this card has a different game on it/are you sure/are you double sure/etc...)and then act like it saved fine, but it didn't.

If you want to backup your game to another memory card you MUST use the PS2Browser to copy the game. Before I get flamed, I did it twice (the 2nd time on

purpose) to make sure it really happened. This will only affect people backingup the game, but if you care enough to back it up, you care enough to not wannalose your cars."

==============================================================================

======================== 6a.LICENSE EXAMS (GTLIC) ========================

The License Exams need to be passed in order to enter some events in GranTurismo 4 in A-Spec mode. You will get a bonus car for passing all the testsfor any license with all bronze, silver, or gold.

FFBeowulf has an excellent guide on www.gamefaqs.com detailing all of thelicense exams. You should check it out if you need help on any specific test.

Watching the demo before taking license exams can help greatly.

National B License

B-1: Acceleration and Braking: 1

After a standing start, accelerate to the 100-meter finish line,then bring thecar to a complete stop. Your elapsed time fromthe moment you start to thepoint you stop the car will be measured. Finding the exact point to brake andhow much brakingforce to apply are the key points here.

Mazda DEMIO (J) '99

Bronze Time: 0'11.300Silver Time: 0'10.400Gold Time: 0'10.150


This test consists of another standing start. Now rush to the 200-meter lineand bring the car to a full halt as near to the finish ine as possible.Because the distance is greater than in the previous test, your rate of travelwill be faster; thus braking distances will be also be increased.Use the braking point from the previous test as a guide and make the necessaryadjustments.

Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Turbo (J) '95


B-3: Basics of Cornering: 1

We'll tackle the essentials of the "out-in-out" racing line for this test usingthe first corner of the Deep Forest Course. As you run flat out on thestraight, veer to the outside edge of the track. Look for the curbing and theapex. If the car runs over the curbing, keep the throtle constant, because ifyou're too aggressive with the gas pedal, you'll invoke understeer. This willresult in going off at the exit.

Honda CR-X del Sol SiR '92


B-4: Basics of Cornering: 2

Using the same section of the Deep Forest Course, this time, we'll try it in apowerful front-engine/rear-wheel drive car. Always remember that more powermeans faster rate of travel. Drive the same line as you did in the previoustest; however, you'll need to brake harder because of the car's faster speed.And as before, once you're on top of the curbing, keep the throttle even. Ifyou get on the gas too much, this time you'll oversteer and spin out.

Nissan SILVIA Q's AERO (S14) '96


B-5: 1 Lap Guide Run (Tsukuba)

In order to memorize tricky Tsukuba Circuit, do a few laps following the pacecar. Try and mimic its exact racing line. The pace car will adjust its speedto yours, so if you choose to go slower, the pace car will also. Kick it up anotch and the pace car will do the same. Again, no passing or hitting the pacecar. Although it's a tight, short track, Tsukuba is essential in learning thebasics of high-performance driving. Go slowly to learn the track first, thengradually increase your pace.

MINI ONE '02



We've returned to the drag strip. Now for an even longer acceleration/brakingrun. This time, from a standing start, accelerate to the 500-meter line andbring the car to a complete stop. Because of the higher speeds, it'll provemore difficult to find the proper braking point. Again, use the 100-meterpoint as a guideline and make the necessary adjustments.

Renault Megane 2.0 16V '03


B-7 - Acceleration and Braking: 4

This is the final acceleration/braking test. For this finale, we'll use thesuper high-output frong-engine/rear drive (FR) Dodge Viper. Our distance:1000 meters. Because you'll be braking from a peak speed of more than 125 mph,finding the ideal braking point will be very difficult. Master this test, andyou'll find that when racing, this experience will prove quite beneficial.

Dodge VIPER GTS '99


B-8 - Basics of Cornering: 3

Let's learn the basics of cornering using the final turn of Twin Ring Motegi'slast Loop. Your test car will be the Maxda Eunos Roadster. Unlike that of theDeep Forest Course, this hairpin is a right-hander. The corner is a decreasing-radius type, so make sure you apply plenty of brakes before going in. Don'ttry to dive into the apex. Instead follow a line similar to that of a largesemicircle.

Mazda MX-5 Miata J-Limited (NA, J) '91


Coffee Break 1 - Maneuver Around the Cones

It's time to take a break and recharge your energy. We call these fun,relaxing stages, "coffee breaks." You'll see a number of cones lined up infront of you. Get to the finish line on the other side of the cones, withoutknocking them over, as quickly as possible and bring the car to a dead stop.You can use any part of the course here, so look for a line you're mostcomfortable with.

Daihatsu Copen Active Top '02

Bronze Time: --'--.---Silver Time: 0'13.200Gold Time: 0'11.800


Now we'll run the same section in a more powerful car. Our mount is the BMW M3CSL. Because speeds are much higher in this car, you'll need to be moreaggressive with the brakes. Use the distance markers on the side of the trackas guide points. If you're too quick and hard on the throttle at the corner'sexit, the rear end will most likely come around, so use caution. Driving overthe curbing too much also may result in a spin.

BMW M3 CSL '03


B-10 - 1 Lap Guide Run (Laguna Seca)

Let's do a lap of the historic Laguna Seca Raceway following the pace car. Theprime objective here is to learn the track, so don't worry about setting laprecords just yet. Follow the pace car and memorize its exact racing line. Theinfamous Corkscrew is a blind downhill left-right S curve, and getting thebraking point correct is imperative in establishing a good lap time. Make sureyou memorize where to apply the brakes before turning in.

Citroen C3 1.6 '02


B-11 - Basics of Dirt Driving: 1

Let's gauge your car-control ability on dirt using the hairpin corner of theGrand Canyon Course. After taking the first right-hander flat out, go as farto the outside edge of the track as possible before turning into the corner.Try to keep a high rate of speed through this corner. Remember that on dirt,the car's steering and brakes aren't as effective as when driving on tarmac, soadapt your driving style accordingly.

Toyota CELICA 2000GT-FOUR (ST165) '86


B-12 - Basics of Dirt Driving: 2

See how quicly you can take the super-fast right-hander of the Swiss AlpsCourse. Because the level of grip is much lower on dirt than on tarmac, you'llneed to rely on more than just steering to guide the car effectively.Controlling the car's balance and efficient use of the brakes are key topointing the car's nose in the correct direction. There are lots of surfaceirregularities here so try not to get knocked off your racing line.

Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 '85



The final corner of Tsukuba Circuit will test your high-speed-cornering skillson asphalt. You'll start the test traveling 50 mph. From the outside edge ofthe track, brake slightly as you approach the corner. Get to the inside of thecorner as soon as possible and straddle the curbing. Keep the throttle eventhrough this part of the corner. Just as the curbing ends, get on the

throttle, and head for the outside part of the track. Make effective use ofthe signs located at the edge of the track to determine your braking point.Then find the optimal entry speed.

Fiat Barchetta Giovane Due '00



The first corner of the El Capitan course is also quite fast; another idealplace to test your competence of high-speed corners. Unlike Tsukuba, the apexis deeper into the turn here, so the key is patience. Starting from the rightedge of the track, look for the apex and turn in. Keep the car on the insideof the corner, and refrain from getting back on the throttle until you'realmost out of the corner. Throttle on too early and you get understeer, whichwill cause the car to go off the track. Practice this corner a few times tofind the correct throttle - on point.

A-1 - Complex Corners: Beginner 1

This test measures your ability to negotiate S-curves on a high-speed track.Immediately upon launch, take note of the red and white curbing on your right.At the end of this curbing is the first corner, a left-hander. This corner'scurbing reveals the location of the apex. Take the correct line and you shouldbe able to get through it flat out. Cross the bridge, and then you'll comeupon a right-hander. Stay as far left as you can when entering the corner andthen look for the apex. Remember, this is a late-apex corner. You should alsobe patient with the throttle here, as you don't want to upset the car's balancein mid-turn. At the corner's exit, don't bother getting set up on the farright before the next left-hander because you don't have time. Go straight forthe apex. Give a light tap of the brake pedal as you enter the corner. It'sparamount you be patient with the trottle here because if you get on it tooquickly, you'll provoke understeer, which will keep you from making the lastturn smoothly.

A-2 - Complex Corners: Beginner 2

Now let's run the same section of the previous test in the Lotus Elise 111R.Remember that because the Elise is a powerful mid-engine sports car, itsbehavior through the esses will be different than that of a front-engine car.When going through the right-hander after the bridge, make sure you hit thebrakes to transfer the car's weight to the front tires, otherwise, you'll geta lot of unwanted understeer. If you get too wide at this corner's exit, youwon't be able to stay on the correct line for the following left-hander.Correctly utilizing the car's fore/aft weight balance is important here.

A-3 - Tackling High Speed Corners: 1

This test will see how well you negotiate the Deep Forest track's final corner,a high-speed left-hander. We'll use the high-output front-engine/front-driveMitsubishi Eclipse Spyder for this test. After launch, set yourself on theright side of the track, then start turning the wheel early to make up for thecar's understeering tendencies. Tap the brake pedal to control your speedthrough the corner. Unless you exit the corner at the optimum speed, you'llprobably go off. Starting off slowly, then gradually raising your pace as youget accustomed to the car and the corner is recommended here.

A-5 - 1 Lap Guide Run (Grand Valley East)

For this test, we'll do a lap of Grand Valley East along with a pace car.Although Grand Valley is a fairly flat course, the East section, with its manyshortcuts and hills, is in some ways more fun and rewarding than the fullversion. The first shortcut comes right after the first corner. Take cautionapproaching the next corner because it's a blind one, hidden behind a hill.The next shortcut is equally challenging, coming right after the tunnel. Makesure you're set up correctly on the left side of the road while you're still inthe tunnel.

A-6 - Complex Corners: Intermediate 1

Twin Ring Motegi's S-curves is the site for the test. Taking the correctracing line is paramount when negotiating these corners. If your exit throughthe first corner is too aggressive, you'll have a difficult time taking theproper line into the next corner. And getting away quickly from the secondcorner is vital because it leads into a long straight. Use the full track whenexiting the second corner, going all the way to its edge. Set yourself up onthe right side for the final left-hander while you're still on the straight.

A-7 - Complex Corners: Intermediate 2

We'll use the Nurburgring's technical section for this test. Exit the firstleft-hand corner at full throttle, and then get on the brakes as you enter the

esses. The first turn here has a late apex, so you'll have to be ready tosteer the other way as soon as you exit to make it in time for the turn-inpoint for the second corner. If you take the correct line, you can get throughthe second corner flat out. Finding a nice rhythm is important when tacklingthis section.

IB-1 - Braking During Turns: 1

Trail braking is the term used when you apply the brakes as you make your turn.Let's try our hand at trail braking through the first corner of TsukubaCircuit. After the start, stay to the left side of the track, then look forthe point where the grass on the right ends. Then steer for the curbing.Brake lightly as you turn into this uphill corner, and get to the inside of thecorner. If you're too early on the throttle, you won't make the turn. Keepeven throttle, and look for the corner post up ahead for your exit. The keyhere is to find the ideal cornering speed.

Hyundai Tiburon GT '01


IB-2 - Braking During Turns: 2

Now we'll try high-speed trail braking using the corners of the Nurburgring.Accelerate on the straight upon launch. Take the first left-hander flat out.Then veer to the left side of the track to set up for the upcoming right-hander. There's a sign post on your right, use that as your braking marker.You'll be steering as you brake, but because the corner is a late-apex one, tryto keep your general driving line to the inside here. If you don't slow thecar down enough or you're too quick getting back on the throttle, you'll go offat the corner's exit. Practice slowing the car down as you corner to masterthis section.

IB-3 - Advanced Level Complex Corners: 1

Two turns blend into one here at Suzuka's Spoon Corner. After the start, takethe sweeper flat out, then you'll approach the first left-hander of SpoonCorner. Brake appropriately and get on the curbing here. Then get back on thethrottle, giving your car momentum at the exit. Now you'll need to turn intothe next corner. It's tighter than the first one, and it's slightly downhill,

so watch out for understeer. Tap the brakes to slow the car down and stabilizethe chassis. If you're in a manual-transmission car, don't drop down to 2nd,keep it in 3rd and you'll get through quicker.

Honda PRELUDE Type S '88


IB-4 - Advanced Level Complex Corners: 2

The very difficult middle section of the Deep Forest Course is the venue forthis test. You'll drive through a tunnel after the start. Then the coursewill bend to the right. Don't get worked up here and get on the throttle tooquickly or you'll get understeer. After you clear the second tunnel, there's acorner after the large hill. You'll have to start steering before you canactually see the corner, or you won't be able to get to the inside. Startbraking as you're cresting the hill, too. For the last corner, keep yoursteering inputs minimal and use the throttle to guide your car around the bend.

IB-6 - Cone Slalom 1

Using the straight at Fuji Speedway, we've arranged some cones to create aslalom course. Weave your way through the cones and get to the finish line assoon as possible. Touch a cone and you're disqualified. As your car gainsspeed, it'll become more and more difficult to control. Get off the throttleas you pass one cone, then on it as you approach another. Developing a goodrhythm is key here. Your test car is equipped with ASM (Active StabilityManagement) turned on. This system uses the brakes to stabilize the car'sbalance. It'll compensate for light under- and oversteer, keeping your car'schassis composed through most of the run.

You'll perform the same slalom as the previous test; however, this time ASMwill be switched off. Your test vehicle is the BMW Z4. Once you startgaining speed, the car will have a tendency to spin, so you need to be verysteady with your driving inputs here. And it's imperative that you do use thethrottle abruptly in mid-turn. Keep an eye on the speedometer, and figure outthe optimal speed toget through the slalom successfully. And note howdifferent the car reacts with ASM switched off as to when it was on.

IB-8 - City Street Challenge: 1

Now we'll use the street course in New York to gauge your ability on takingcity turns. Unlike corners on a race track, you'll get onto the curbing for aninstant through these 90-degree corners, so make sure your entry speed isoptimal. Determing the exact braking point is vital in controlling the speedof the car, so concentrate on when and how hard to apply the brakes. In themiddle section of the track, there's a place where a narrow pass leads onto alarge, wide road. Make sure you use all of the track here to find the mosteffective line possible. The last part of the track consists of a series of 90degree corners. Don't think of these corners as separate entities, but onelong connected pass. Don't be intimidated by the barriers on the side of theroad, use as much as the track as possible to get through quickly.

Coffee Break 3 - Knock Over the Cones Laid Out in a Spiral part 2

We'll keep refreshing your spirits with yet another coffee break. Remember theA License Test? Well, you'll be running that course backwards for this stage.There are 100 cones placed in a spiral. This time, knock them down from theoutside. The turn becomes tighter and tighter so the difficulty level ishigher. It's very important that you don't invoke understeer, so control yourspeed. Oh, and you don't have to knock the cones over, simply touching them isokay.

IB-9 - City Street Challenge: 2

Now let's see how good you are at finding the right racing line. We'll use thetight sections of the Italian street course. Right after the start, you'l comeupon a section where you'll come upon a section where you'll be sandwichedbetween walls. There are slight curves here, so tap the brakes and slow thecar down. From there you'll come upon a series of combined corners. Use asmuch track as possible and try to go through in as straight a line as possible.Throttle work is key here, don't go full throttle and off throttle abruptly,try to stay even throughout. Learning the corners and maintaining a goodrhythm is the key to success here.

IB-10 - 1 Lap Guide Run (Hong Kong)

Now for the pace car to make yet another appearance. You'll follow it for alap around Hong Kong's street course. The key to this track is that the widthof it varies greatly from one place to another. Like the street course in NewYork, when the width of the track changes in mid-corner, use the wider portionto the maximum. When going from narrow to wide, don't presume that the curbingis the end of the corner. Envision the line all the way to the exit, evenbefore it comes into view. When the road goes from wide to narrow in mid-corner, get the car pointed in the proper direction while you're on the widerportion or you'll be unable to make the full turn. Take in the beautifullights of the city as you learn this track.

IB-12 - Driving on Snow: 1

We'll test your car-control ability on icy roads through successive hairpins

of the Ice Arena. Cut through the first left-right corners in somewhat of astraight line. Then you'll come upon a left-hand hairpin. Swing the car tothe right before going into the corner. Then swing it the other way as you goin. The momentum of the first swing will enable the car to drift cleanlythrough, as long as you countersteer and throttle properly. If your timing onthe throttle isn't perfect, you'll get unwanted understeer. Use the sametechnique for the following right-hand hairpin.

IB-13 - Tackling Undulating S-bends

The latter section of El Capitan is where we'll see how you fare throughintense elevation changes. You'll be faced with a downhill right-hander afterthe start. Think of this corner as a combination of two right-hand corners.After driving onto the first curbing, go back toward the outside of the track,keeping the steering constant, then drive over the second curbing. Aftertaking the next left-hander flat out, you'll come upon a blind right-hander.Although you can't see through the corner, you'll need to slow the car downearly to be able to make the turn. The road changes a bit on the exit, so beready for understeer. Making the proper adjustments as the road surfacechanges is the key to getting good results here.

IB-14 - Tackling Corner Sequences over Undulating Surfaces

We'll use El Capitan yet again, this time we'll run through a challenging hillysection. The key point here is the steep uphill climb after the tunnel. Andat the top of the hill is the apex of a corner, so you'll need to start brakingas you're still climbing and head for the curbing on the right side. Afterthis is the downhill part. You'll lose a lot of grip so be wary of understeer.And the exit for the following left-hander is tight; finding the right place toget on the throttle is important here.

IB-16 - Graduation Test

In order to get the International B-Class Racing License, you'll need to tacklea challenging portion of Italy's street course (that you've just seen). You'llbe timed from the back straight to the point where you exit the hairpin. Afterstarting on the straight at high speed, use the gate at the bottom of the hillas a braking point. The road will flatten here; you can also use this as aguide point. After the gate, there's a right-left S-curve. Keep your speed incheck here. Then you'll approach a right-hander. Stay on the outside, then goto the inside at the end of the curve.

IA-1 - Tackling Complex Corner Sequences: 1

You'll be tested on how well you can negotiate your way through successivecorners for this test. We'll be using the latter half of the midfield. Rightafter launch, get ready to brake for a right-hander in the tunnel. For thefollowing corner, a long left-hand sweeper, keep on the inside and use thethrottle to control the car's balance. After clearing the straight, you'llcome upon S-curves, but be careful of the left-hander that follows. It's atight one, and you'll need to begin braking while you're still in the esses. Agood marker to start braking is during your transition from the first left-hander of the S-curves to the following right-hander. And remember to try andbrake in a straight line or you'll upset the balance of the car. Getting yourstraight-line braking down is the key to getting a fast time here.

Jaguar XJ220 '92



We'll be using a section of Suzuka for this test, specifically the part fromthe esses to Degner Curve. This test will again gauge your ability throughsuccessive corners. Upon launch, you'll come upon the esses. Use the entiretrack to get through these corners, and carry as much speed as possible.You'll be climbing uphill, but there are some flat sections of the track here,so be prudent of understeer. Once you're clear, you'll be faced with a seriesof left-handers until you reach Degner Curve. For the first right-hander, use

the posted braking-distance signs to determine your braking point. A tap isall you need here, then take the corner as if it were a 90-degree streetcorner. Once you exit, you'll be on top of a right-hander, so get on thebrakes again. If you don't slow the car down enough, you'll go off at theexit. The speed you carry through Degner Curve is important for setting a goodlap time at Suzuka.

We'll be attacking the B-corner chicane of the 90's version of Fuji Speedwayfor this test. There's a slight right-hander after the start, take this in astraight line using the entire track. Head straight for the sign ahead. Usethis sign to determine your braking point for the next corner. Hold off onyour braking as long as possible, going as deep as you can into the turn, andget on the right-hand curbing. Once you're clear, get back on the throttle,and then on the brakes again for the following left-hander. If you head forthe inside of this corner too early, you won't make the exit, so try to pointthe nose of the car toward the exit as soon as possible. Also, get onto thecurbing. The way you approach the first right-hander here will determine yourpace through the rest of the section.

We'll be using the final part of Apricot Hill for this test, which leads from atight chicane to the final corner of the track. After the start, take thehigh-speed left-hander and right-hander flat out. At the bottom of the hill,there's another left-hand corner. Set yourself up on the right edge of thetrack. This corner leads into the esses. Drive over the curbing and stay onthe inside as you enter the esses. The last corner of the esses is a tightleft-hander. Try to clear this corner in a straight line, keeping in mind thatthe way you brake for this corner will decide on your success or failure. Thekey here is not to think of these corners as separate entities, but one longcontinuous path.

We'll use the first part of the Autumn Ring for this test. A combination ofunconventional corners await. After the start, take the first left-hander flatout, then you'll arrive at the succession of corners. The first right-leftshould be treated as one corner. Drive as if you're getting on the curbing foran instant, then cut through to the exit in a straight line. On the followingstraight, brake lightly for the next succession of corners. Take this left-right combination in the same way you took the first one. Do this and you cancarry good speed through the right-hander that leads you onto the straight.Don't think about going through one corner at a time, rather think how you cango quickly through the entire stage. That's the key to succeeding here.

The latter half of the Trial Mountain Course is the venue here. We'll be usinga corner with a high difficulty rating. Be aware that the elevation changeswill likely affect the fore/aft balance of the car. After the start, use the100-meter sign to determine your braking point for the first corner. Stay onthe inside here, making full use of the yellow zone. The slight right-handerthat comes next should be taken at full throttle, but be prepared for the nextright-hander. The first part of this corner is blind so make sure you startbraking before the corner becomes visible. You'll be trail braking so bemindful of oversteer. After clearing this corner, you'll come upon the finalturn, at the bottom of a steep hill. Controlling your speed through thiscorner is vital. If you go in with too much throttle, you won't make the turn.

Accelerate outof the box, and you'll come to a plaza with a chicane. Brake in a straightline, and drive on top of the left- and right-side curbing. Use some throttlesteer here. After the following straight, you'll get to the Opera House.Trail brake into this corner. Make sure you slow the car down enough to get ontop of the curbing on this first corner in the open square. For the followinghairpin, be patient with the throttle and stay to the inside of the corner.The road surface has many irregularities, so if you go to the outside edges insome places, you will get understeer.

IA-10 - 1 Lap Guide Run (Fuji Speedway 2005)

Let's use the pace car once again for this test. Follow the pace car for a lapof Fuji Speedway 2005F. The overall layout of the track is similar to the 90'sversion of the track, but there are changes in the details, so don't take thisnew version lightly. For example, on the latter half of the track, there's anew tight corner, hidden from view, so you must exercise caution. Observe theracing line of the pace car and memorize the track's layout.

IA-11 - Competition dirt racing: 2

We'll now test your ability through high-speed corners on dirt. The site isthe final portion of the Swiss Alps Course. You'll jump two hills after thestart, then come upon tight S-curves. Start braking on the outside of thefirst corner and then prepare to slide through the turn. Once you swing therear end out and establish your drift, use the momentum to slide and driftsmoothly through the left-hand corner. If you slow the car down too muchbefore the first corner, you won't have the momentum to change the directionof the slide for the second corner. Try it over and over to find the optimumentry speed. Repeat the same technique for the next right-hander, but keep inmind that this corner is quite deep, so the key is to maintain your drift tothe end of the corner. Use the steering and the throttle to keep the carpointed in the correct direction.

IA-12 - Driving on Snow: 2

The latter section of Chamonix is the venue for the high-speed test on ice andsnow. The level of friction of snow and ice is lower than dirt so car controlis of the essence. The key here are the hairpins. Set the car up for thedrift, swinging the car out in the opposite direction, then swinging it backtoward the turn. The momentum caused by the change of direction should allowyou to slide through the corner more effectively. Start the slide in onedirection using the steering wheel as you either hit the brakes or lift off thethrottle. This feint will help you achieve a smooth powerful drift. Usually,drifting through a corner means going in at high speed, but on snow, if youdon't slow the car down properly, you'll get lots of understeer.

Toyota CELICA GT-FOUR Rally Car (ST185) '95



For our high-speed cornering test, we'll go to the super high-speed section ofthe Nurburgring's North course. Make sure you're in constant control of yourhigh-speed car's speed on this course. After the start, the first left-right-left can be taken flat out. Start braking for the esses when the road beginsto climb. There isn't much to the first right-hander, but the following leftis rather tight, so make sure you get the car slowed down enough to clear thiscorner. Trail braking is necessary, therefore, keeping the car on the drivingsurface when slowing the car down is a must. If you don't stick to the insideof the corner, you won't be able to establish a good time. The two left-handcorners are rather deep so be careful.

BMW M5 '05



Now for S-curves with a high degree of difficulty. We'll use the latter partof Twin Ring Motegi's road course. After the start, take the first left-handerflat out. Then immediately get on the brakes as you approach the esses. Forthe first left-hander, try to get onto the curbing as deep into the corner aspossible or you won't be able to make the turn for the next right-hander. Ifyou get too anxious with the throttle for the right-hander, you'll getundersteer and go off. Try to get the car in a straight line as soon aspossible. Your test vehicle is a high-powered front-engine/rear drive car,which means if you get on the gas too abruptly, you'll invoke power oversteer.

IA-15 - 1 Lap Guide Run (Nurburgring North Course)

Now for a session with the pace car again. Let's take a lap around thechallenging Nurburgring's North course. It's an incredibly long course, withone lap measuring about 12 miles. There are more than 170 corners here, sodon't try to set a blistering time right away. You'll need to memorize thecourse first. Not only will you need to remember the sections you've seenbefore, but you'll need to learn some new bits as well. Make sure you inputevery inch of this track into your brain before going all out. Memorize thelocation of the curbing and the width of the track in various places for thesebits of information will come in handy. Once you've done this, then startfinding the proper line through the course. Observe the pace car carefully,and follow its line precisely.

IA-16 - Graduation Test

To obtain your International A-Class Racing License, you'll need tosuccessfully run the Sarthe Circuit at full wick in a Group C racing car.You'll start on the Mulsanne Straight. From here, you'll be running flat outfor about 4 miles. Despite being a straight, there are slight kinks here, aswell as road irregularities; be ready at all times on the steering wheel. Thebrakes are very powerful on this car so use the 200-meter post as the indicatorto begin braking. After the right-hander, you'll be on another straight forabout a mile. Then you'll be confronted with some tricky corners, one of themIndianapolis and the other, a 90-degree turn called Arnage. Treat the latteras if you were running a street course, and enjoy the rush of 237 mph on thestraight.

S-1 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Twin Ring Motegi Road Course)

You'll be tested on how quickly you can complete one lap of Motegi's roadcourse. You've already seen various parts of this track in previous tests, sotry to remember how you ran those sections when going all out here. Your testvehicle is a race car, therefore the brakes in particular are very powerful.There are many corners where you'll need to take a dedicated line and pace, sotry not to dive into these corners too abruptly or you'll lose preciousseconds. The main attraction of this track is the part from the first overpassto just after the esses. Your top speed on the straights will depend on thelines you take through the corners, so always keep in mind entry and exitspeed.

Honda Gathers Drider CIVIC Race Car '98


S-2 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Citta di Aria)

You'll be timed through a full lap of Italy's street course. Go as fast as youcan through these narrow city orads. The spots to gain the most time are thehairpin, which you've already see before in previous tests, and the downhilltight corner located between the rock walls. The hairpin is a late-apexer sodon't turn in too quickly here. The numerous tight corners of this course arechallenging, but if you think out-in-out on this narrow thoroughfare, you'llfind that you'll develop a rhythm. Try and remember how the pace car ranthrough the course. Your test vehicle is the Alfa Romeo Spider 1600 Duetto.

S-3 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Special Stage Route 5)

Making its first appearance in the licensing portion of the game is SpecialStage Route 5, of which you'll be doing one complete lap. This course hasnumerous technical sections, such as S-curves and late-apexers, so make sureyou have a plan of attack before going all out. You'll be piloting the superhigh-performance Saleen S7, so all your skills will be put to the test. Themost important part of this track are the series of corners after the tunnel.Don't concentrate on just one corner here, rather devise a strategy for gettingthrough the entire section. There's a hairpin located at the top of thestraight. You'll need to brake while you're still drive uphill. The followingstraight and right-hander should be taken in a similar way. Don't get too

aggressive and overcook it on this track because this track makes you pay forit.

Saleen S7 '02


S-4 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Costa di Amalfi)

Here's a course developed on a resort island. It's called Amalfi Circuit andyou'll be required to run one full lap. You'll experience a hillclimb that'lltake you to the top of the island, followed by an intense downhill section.The course layout can be simply characterized as: a bunch of straightsconnected by hairpins. Keep in mind that your exit speed out of the cornerswill determine your top speed on the straights. Also remember that on thefirst-half of the course, the uphill section, you'll get more understeer thannormal because less weight is on the front tires. Brake hard to transferweight to the fronts then point the car in the correct direction. Through thelatter half of the course, the downhill portion, make sure you brake in astraight line, if you brake while turning, you'll upset the balance of the car.

Lancia STRATOS Rally Car '77


S-5 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Seattle)

This is another course you're seeing for the first time in the licensingportion of the game. It's called the Seattle Circuit, and you'll be timeddoing a full lap. We'll be using the Ford GT as the test car. It's a trickycity road course with plenty of challenging corners after another, so make sureyou memorize the layout before seriously going for a good lap time. The firsthairpin after the starting line is your first obstacle. You'll need to brakeabout 200 meters before getting to the corner; make sure you slow the car downenough to make the turn. The intense uphill straight leads to a blind 90-degree turn, so you'll have to start braking before the corner becomes visible.Then there are two places where the car gets airborne. The course widens here,so make full use of the road and open up the throttle. Use the curbing that'son most of the corners; let it help you point the car in the correct direction.This course gives you a taste of the exhilaration of high speed driving.

S-6 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Ice Arena)

Driving in the snow, that's what it's all about here at the Snow Arena Course.You'll be timed doing one full lap. Although it's short in length, this courseis quite the challenge. The reason: the driving surface here is very slick,so steering, accelerating and braking are less responsive than on dry tarmac.

Accelerating may be the trickiest, so be delicate on the throttle; remember,the most important thing is making the car progress forward. And, much in thesame manner as previous tests on slick surfaces, sliding the car is the bestway to get around quickly. Crank the steering as you enter a corner, lift offthe gas or get on the brakes, and you'll get the rear to break loose. Thiswill get the car to drift. Once you've done that, use the steering and the gaspedal to control the drift. If you don't have enough weight on the fronttires, you'll understeer off the track. If you're too aggressive on thethrottle, you'll spin, so be careful.

S-7 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Trial Mountain)

Now you'll be timed for a lap around the Trial Mountain Course, with its jaggedrocks and stone cliff walls. It's a high-speed course that requires first-ratedriving skills, so use all that you've learned from the previous tests to clearthis stage. The highlight of this course is a section you've seen previously,the part after you clear the tunnel. The driving surface of the first right-hander is slick so make sure you're ready for understeer when turning in.Through the next tunnel, start on the right and gradually veer to the left.Cut across the yellow border line at the exit to get as much speed as possiblefor the straight. There's a tight blind corner to follow, but if you find theideal line here, you'll be able to keep your speed high.

Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren '03


S-8 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Tokyo Route 246)

For this test, you'll be timed for a full lap of Tokyo Route 246, a streetcourse that cuts through the heart of Tokyo. This long track can be drivenmostly flat out, so finding the right driving line is paramount. One of thekey points here is getting the braking point correct for the first corner.There's a 100-meter sign before the corner, start braking right before you getto the sign. Then you'll come upon an oval section. Driving on top of theinside curbing here will result in better lap times. The speed through thefinal corner under the overpass is also important. Be careful not to carry toomuch speed through certain parts of the track, and make sure you drive over asmuch of th curbing as possible. If you drive over the curbing correctly,you'll get better lap times...not only here but on virtually any other racetrack.

Coffee Break 5 - Cone Maze Challenge

This is your final coffee break. We've created a special course within theGymkhana course. Inside, there are 50 cones. Your objective is to hit everyone of these cones located within the special course. You won't bedisqualified by hitting the walls here, but it will result in loss of time, sobe careful. You can even use reverse here, just as long as you hit every cone.Give it some thought and devise the best route to strike each one of thesecones.

S-9 - 1 Lap Time Trial (El Capitan)

Now for a timed lap of the El Captain Course (typo here), pieces of whichyou've seen a number of times already. Keep in mind that this course hasintense elevation changes, so maintaining the balance of the car is vital.The key part of this track is the section after the first right-hand corner.Because the driving surface changes abruptly, be careful of sudden understeer.Also, take note of the blind corner after the tunnel. Make sure you're set upfor this corner before it becomes visible. In fact, always envision the cornerahead of the one you're taking. There are parts on this track where you'll seestones and rubble to the side; there's very little grip here, so staying awayfrom these irregularities is recommended.

Dodge VIPER SRT10 '03


S-10 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Grand Canyon)

Let's now do a timed lap of the Grand Canyon Course, a long, dirt track.You'll need plenty of concentration to complete this 3.5-km circuit. The keypoint here is the section near the cliffs. There are many corners where you'llneed to slide the car, so car control is vital in establishing a good lap time.The important things to remember when sliding your car are braking and liftingoff the throttle. The tight part at the end of the cliff section can make orbreak your run. Getting too flashy with your driving may result in loss oftime, so be as efficient as possible.

Mitsubishi STARION 4WD Rally Car '84


S-11 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Opera Paris)

The pristine streets of Paris is the site for this track, the Opera ParisCourse. You'll be doing a timed lap. Although this course is relativelysimple, there are a number of chicanes placed at open sections of the track.Getting the car slowed down and effectively negotiating the chicanes are key to

getting a good lap time. Because the performance of the car is so high, makesure you find the correct braking points for every corner. There are surfaceirregularities on this track, which tends to happen on city streets thatcollect standing water, so when you get set up on the outside edges of theroad, you may experience understeer. The Place de la Concord serves as thestart and finish line. Envision and think of this track in its entirety as youdevise your plan of attack.

Renault Clio Renault Sport V6 Phase 2 '03


S-12 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Suzuka Circuit)

Now for a timed lap of the most famous course in Japan, Suzuka. You'll beusing the Motul Pitwork 350Z that races in the Japanese Grand TouringChampionship. Reverse Bank, Degner, Spoon, and t30R, are some of the famouscorners on this course. You'll need to use all of your driving skills to get agood lap time here. The thing about Suzuka is that you can't establish a goodlap time by just concentrating on one corner. To be successful, you mustalways be planning for one or two corners ahead of the one you're on. Thismeans establishing the correct line and speed well in advance. Envision thecourse in its entirety--not just bits and pieces at a time--and then deviseyour plan of attack.

Nissan MOTUL PITWORK Z (JGTC) '04


S-13 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Infineon Raceway - Sports Car Course)

California's popular Infineon Raceway is the site for our next test. We'll bedoing a timed lap of the sports-car course known better as Sears Point. It's atrack that has been designed into the region's rolling hills, resulting in aunique layout. After the start, you'll have a steep uphill climb. It'sdifficult to see the road ahead, with blind corners aplenty, as well as slickspots where traction is bad, so proceed with caution. About halfway throughthe course, you'll be traveling downhill. After the hairpin, there are anumber of slow corners; so establishing a good rhythm is key to clearing thissection. Your test vehicle is the Audi R8, a race car; needless to say, speed-control is important.

S-14 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Chamonix)

We'll be running a full lap of Chamonix for this test. Let's see how quicklyyou can navigate this long ice track that stretches for more than 2 miles. Thesnow is partially cleared at the start of the course; nevertheless, there's

very little grip and traction here. If you drive on the outside of the trackwhere there are patches of snow, you're more than likely to spin, caused by thedifference in grip between the right and left tires. In the tunnel, the snowon the ground and a number delicate on the throttle and concentrate on theforward progress of your car, and you should be okay. There are plenty ofplaces where the car's balance will be compromised as well as the tires'traction, so refrain from being overly aggressive on the throttle, otherwiseyou'll spin. The driving surface is slicker here than on dirt, so be cautious.

S-15 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Circuit de la Sarthe)

The internationally famous high-speed track of Le Mans, Sarthe Circuit 1, isthe venue for this test, one full timed lap. Our mount is the Bentley Speed 8race car. This course can be divided into three main high-speed sections. Thefirst and longest, the Mulsanne Straight or Hunadiers, has two chicanes, butthe most challenging is the straight that leads onto Indianapolis Corner.Here, the track is narrow, and there's a slight bend; therefore, unless youtake the proper line, you're going off. And be careful not to drive on thecurbing too much here. The infield section of the permanent course haselevation changes with corners that are difficult to see. There are alsocorners on a flat plane right after a steep uphill climb. Remember thatwithout the proper weight on the front tires, you'll invoke understeer.

S-16 - 1 Lap Time Trial (Nurburgring North Course)

To obtain your Super License, you'll need to master the ultimate challenge insports-car driving, the North Course at the Nurburgring. Make use of all theskills you've learned thus far to tackle this test. Your test car has moreperformance than the pace car you followed previously, with higher averagespeeds, so always be thinking ahead. After crossing the bridge near the startof the track, you'll come upon a high-speed section where your driving linemust be precise. Then there's a highly technical section that comes after theoff-camber Carrouset; make sure you hug the curbing through these corners. Byjust changing your line slightly, you many gain more speed through some partsof this track, thus improving your lap time. You'll find that the more you lapthe Ring, the more you'll discover its profound nature.

The Driving Missions are designed to help you improve your racing skills. Theyare divided into the categories: The Pass, 3 Lap Battle, Slipstream Battle, and1 Lap Magic. Here I'll post my and other readers' strategies for completingthese([email protected] if you have submissions).

-------- The Pass --------

------------ 3 Lap Battle ------------

11. New York

Quoted from haloexpert2003:

"Try to slide through the first corner at about 50mph and get onto the back straight. Brake before the corner and drift through at about 35 mph if you can manage through to the left-right-right series. THEY KEY IS TO KEEP THAT SPEED and try to raise it. Cut the next left corner short, it'll gain you some time. The right corner should be cut close, too. When you get to the final left corner (before the straight) but it close to the barrier at around 45-50 mph. Draft off of the car in front of you and pass it before the U-turn. Use the whole corner to build up an exit speed of nearly 40mph (My average was 37) and continue. Rinse and repeat for the next two laps. You should reach the final time-tracker with 4 seconds to catch up to the first car. Breeze thru the U-turn without any mistakes and draft off the car in front of you for the win."

A few tips from turk173:

- For your first checkpoint, you should only be behind the head car by 27 seconds at the most (26.5 is preferrable). If you are further behind then this, just restart until you get it.

- You should pass your first car before the McDonalds on the last straight-away (left-hand side before the u-turn). If you don't, once again restart.

- Exit speed seems to make all of the difference. Make sure you brake early for the corners before straight-aways so that you can have a high speed after the corner.

----------------- Slipstream Battle -----------------

21. Nissan Cube

Submitted by Irving Serrano:

This race is pretty simple, just draft the first car in front of you, when you are directly in back of him, right before you might hit him on the corner, break free to the outside, keep it floored, you than have enough speed to catch up to the next Cube. Follow the same line as him and keep it floored, when your close break free. Repeat this and its fairly easy to win the race.

22. Honda Odyssey


Same basis as the other ones, stay in back of the van in front of you and break free when its time to break free. Always take the outside when possible and follow the yellow line on the outside of the track for it is the best one.

23. Nissan Skyline GT-R

In this mission, you start out a couple seconds behind a pack of four Skylines, and about 13 seconds behind a sole Skyline. You have to utilize drafting to catch up to the leader before the 3 laps runs out. The best way to do this is draft going into the curve until you reach about 172-175 mph. Then 'leap-frog' in front of the cars. Since the AI doesn't adjust to TRY to draft you, you'll need to look in your rear-view mirror to stay directly in front of the AI cars. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T SLOW DOWN. The pack will start to catch up eventually if you stay in line with them. Let them pass you so you can draft them right back. This 'forced leap- frogging' should let you catch the leader toward the end of the last lap. DON'T let the leader draft you if you get in front.

Alternate strategy by Cybersk8er5000:

"Ok. From the start, draft the pack like you usually would. By the time you get to the first turn, you should be up to 170-171 MPH, with the pack just a little ahead. Keep going, and when you get to them, pass them at ~172-174 MPH. Now follow the outer yellow line, and by the end of the turn, you shouldn't be any lower than 164. If you look behind you at this point, the whole pack should be not far behind you. During the straightaway, just stay on the outer yellow line at a steady 164-165 MPH. Near the end, if you keep an eye out behind you, you'll see one of the Skylines break free of the rest and draft you. Usually they go on the inside (left) so just smoothly steer over to where you're right in front of them (your speed shouldn't change more than 1 MPH), and they'll slam right into you. Usually this'll put you back up to around 170-171 MPH.

Keep doing this on each straightaway, and on the final straightaway before the final turn, one Skyline should draft you, with a second Skyline drafting the first. Now just let the first one hit you, and then the second one, and you should get launched forward to around 175 MPH. Halfway through the turn, you'll start picking up the lead car's draft, and you'll pass them in no time

Split times (at the end/beginning of each lap) should be approx.: 6.7xx, 4.0xx, and -1.5xx at the finish line. Speeds on the straightaways should be 164 minimum MPH, and between 170 and 163 through the turns."

24. Amuse S2000 GT1


In this race, yet another slip stream with faster cars, follow the same line THE OTHER CARS TAKE. It is imperative to stay behind them. Break out too early and your screwed, break out too late and you get a 5 second penalty. Relatively as easy as the rest.

============================================================================================================================================================

===================== 7.ARCADE MODE (GTAMO) =====================

In Arcade Mode you can race on any of the tracks that you have unlocked againsta 2nd player or against 5 AI cars. You can use a select number of cars fromeach manufacturer plus the BASE model of any car that you have in your garage.There are minor tuning options available(tune ASM and TCS levels), plus theability to switch tires. You can also change the difficulty before each race.If you don't like the base model's power, you can adjust the horsepower eitherway by 20%.

*In two player battle, you cannot use TCS or ASM.

============================================================================================================================================================

====================== 8.PHOTO TRAVEL (GTPHO) ======================

Photo Travel is one of the new modes in Gran Turismo 4. You can take your carto a location and position it along with the camera/camera angle to take adramatic shot of your vehicle.

*Your current vehicle will be the one that you can take pictures of. To take pictures of a different one, you need to switch cars in the garage.*

------------General Info (Map)------------

On the Map screen in Photo Travel, your car is represented by a red icon, whilethe camera is a blue icon.

The red and blue areas on the map are where the car and camera can be moved,respectively.

Select the car/camera with X and use the left analog to move them.

If an exclamation mark appears, then the car/camera cannot me moved to thatlocation.

Use the the right analog to rotate your car to the desired angle.

------------General Info (Camera)------------

The camera is always positioned at 45-degrees in front of the car.

The camera must always be moved in conjunction with the vehicle.

You can change the cropping of the photo between horizontal/vertical with theicon in the upper right corner of the camera display.

There are bars showing the zoom level and aperture - when the photo subject isstill and everything else is out of focus/blurry; think af a picture ofwildlife where the background is blurry, the pics of a street at night when allthe cars turn into blurs of headlights, or a picture of an athlete where he/sheis the only discernable object. That is the effect of low aperture. A highaperture is like taking a normal photo. (Basically, aperture is how much lightthe camera lens lets in, and a higher setting allows you to utilize a fastershutter speed.)

At the bottom of the screen is a row of photo shooting screen options(more onthis later). Here you can change filters, focus, etc.

--------------------Adjusting the Camera--------------------

On the Camera display are buttons for Camera Direction, Camera Tilt, CameraPosition, and Camera height. Use these to move and adjust the camer to get theperfect angle.

-----------------------------Photo Shooting Screen Options-----------------------------

The first button is for adjusting the steering angle of your car up to 30degrees to either side(thanks to VampireHorde's FAQ for this info).

The second button is for changing filters.

The third is Photo Mode option.

Photo Mode option lets you change the image resolution, focus, screen aspectratio, and shutter sounds.

-------------Taking/Saving-------------

Press the 'shoot' button to take the photo. The image will then be switched toa full screen view.

You can now press circle to save the photo, or use R1/L1 to zoom in and out.

Or you can press the Square button to go back.

================ 9.TUNING (GTTUN) ================

This section is designed to help some players who don't know much about tuningcars in Gran Turismo 4. I will provide some general tuning tips as well as afew presets that can be used in various situations. These are in no way'professional' or 'the best' setups possible, but they are some things that Ifound to work in this game based on trial and error.

*On the settings screen there is a scroll bar at the bottom that describes whateach part/adjustment does*

==============================================================================

============================== 9a.GENERAL TUNING INFO (GTGEN) ==============================

Downforce - First of all, disregard anyone that says that wings are 'ugly' or 'ricey', they are one of the most important upgrades to a car. Equipping them enables you to use downforce. Changing the downforce of your car will enable you to alter most of the properties of it such as: acceleration, top speed, handling characteristics, braking, etc.

Gear Ratios - This seems to be the area where players are having the most trouble. At first, the gear ratio setting screen can be intimidating with all the different gears' numbers and such, but once you get the hang of it, this will be one of the first things you want to adjust. Using the gear ratios can change your car into a 300 mph Test Track monster or a touring car clone capable of tight lines through the Nurburgring.

Suspension - Tuning your suspension can make your car able to handle turns at higher speeds. It can also let you change your car's oversteer or understeer properties.

Weight Reduction - This is always my first upgrade. Reducing the weight of your vehicle will enhance every single aspect of it.

Tires - Remember, as the tires are the only part of the car that touches the ground, they have the potential to affect it the most. Selecting good tires for the type of race is key.

Oil - When you first acquire a car, you can change the oil to get a slight horsepower boost. This is especially important for used cars. The oil

also needs to be changed as you rack up mileage or the car's performance could suffer greatly.

Horsepower - It is commonly known that having the most horsepower is not always the best choice. This is especially true on technical courses where you have to take things such as turbo-lag into account. At the same time, once you become a good enough driver(like me) you will be able to handle max horsepower on ice, dirt, etc. Its all about knowing your limits.

Turbo vs. N/A - You will notice that for the most part, cars that allow you to perform an N/A tune-up and install a turbo kit usually get a bigger horsepower benefit from the turbo. Turbo is not always the best option however as 'turbo-lag' can affect performance on technical courses. A supercharger is a quick way to gain a lot of horsepower relatively cheap(if the car can be equipped with one), but N/A tune-ups and turbo kits usually give more total horsepower.

Turbo Kits - A turbo charger is basically an exhaust gas driven air compressor and can be best understood if it is divided into its two basic parts, the exhaust gas driven turbine and its housing, and the air compressor and its housing. Each of them perform different functions but, because they are joined together via a common shaft, the function of one impacts the function of the other.

Power Band - This is the range of RPMs that an engine generates the most torque and horsepower. Turbo engines tend to have a much smaller powerband than N/A or supercharged cars, and that is usually in the higher RPMs. Since the engine has to do some work and get exhaust gasses flowing into the turbine before the turbo can give out boost, this naturally takes away from the car's power at lower RPMs.

Turbo Lag - Turbo lag is basically the amount of time it takes from the time you place a load on the engine (stomp the gas peddle to the floor and dump the clutch or, get full converter lock up with your automatic trans) until the time the engine develops enough hot expanding exhaust gas to spin the turbine fast enough for the compressor to do its job.

*Though turbo lag is in this game, it is not very prevalent if you have a good flywheel, driveshaft, and transmission. For this reason I usually go with the turbo kit despite lag.

==============================================================================

============================ 9b.UPGRADE SELECTION (GTUPG) ============================

******Most popular sports cars can be upgraded at the Tuner Village. There you canget access to Original turbo and suspension upgrades.******

Starting off - The most immediately useful upgrades are the lightweight,

suspension, and drivetrain/brakes. These affect how the car reacts to throttle usage and grips the road. By adjusting the settings, you can make the car a lot faster without any added horsepower! The power-to-weight ratio is much more important than bhp so lightening is the way to go.

(My suggestions)

1. Lightweight Stage 1 and 2 and add a Wing on your car2. Racing Flywheel/Carbon Driveshaft/Double or Triple Plate Clutch3. Racing Brakes4. Racing/Original Suspension

Increasing power - Unless you have the money, buying the biggest turbo or N/A tuneup usually isn't the best way to go. Start by getting an oil change and racing chip. This should boost hp by 10- 15% at least. Next, you should buy a supercharger if the car can use one, if not then get some upgrades on the engine that are within your price range.

5. Oil Change/Racing Chip6. Supercharger/Racing Intercooler and Turbo/ NA tune-up7. Racing Transmission8. Other small engine enhancements within your budget.

Handling Time! - Now you should think about the upgrading the tires depending upon race regulations and type. This is also the time to get the fully-customizable limited slip and lightweight stage 3.

9. Tires10.Lightweigt Stage 311.FC Limited Slip Differential

Topping it off - Lastly, get any engine/turbo upgrades you didn't get before.

12.All power upgrades including N2O13.Brake Balance Controller/AYC Contoller14.VCD Controller

==============================================================================

========================== 9c.SETTING EFFECTS (GTSET) ==========================

Nitrous - Increasing the power of a nitrous shot will give your car more bigger torque boost, but the length of the boost will be shorter

Gear Ratios - Moving the gear ratios to the left(widening) will increase the top speed attainable in that gear but will make the acceleration slower in that gear. Moving the gears to the right(shortening) will increase the acceleration in that gear, but lower the top speed attainable. Remember, shifting takes time, so shortening the gears too much can actually make acceleration times slower.

Brake Balance - Increasing the brake power will help cars that are heavy slow down faster. Light cars do not need as much. Since the weight of the car shifts to the front upon braking, moving the brake balance there can help correct oversteer and loss of control upon entering corners. Moving the brake balance backward will make the car's back end easier to slide around corners, but will also make the car more prone to oversteer.

*Tip = Almost every setting that you change(except gear ratios) will have an effect on tire wear. On longer races, it may be benificial to use settings that are slightly harder to control and preserve your tires longer.

Tires - Tires should be upgraded to racing tires for any race that will allow them. They give MUCH improved grip. Make sure your tire selection is appropriate for the length of the race(R1/S1 - long, R3/S2 - short).

Ride Height - Making this lower, will lower the car's ceneter on gravity. This has the effect of making the car more stable, improving handling and acceleration. The lower the ride height, the stiffer the springs need to be. Having a low ride height and soft springs will cause the car to bounce off the road and may even bottom out upon elevation changes. A high ride height is preferable for courses with a lot of elevation changes and 'bumps', such as rally tracks. With a high ride height, you should equip softer springs so that the car can ride over rough terrain smoothly.

Spring Rate - The stiffer these are, the less likely your car is to bounce upon changes in road conditions. This goes hand in hand with ride height.

Shock Bound/Rebound - This is how hard you want your springs to be upon contracting/expanding respectively. By changing one or the other, you can adjust how your car reacts upon uneven terrain.

*Camber explanation from Ootachi16

Camber Angle - The higher you make it, the more the top of your wheels tuck in and the bottom of the wheel sticks out. When you are in the middle of a turn the inertia forces a wheel with zero camber to ride slightly on the outer edge of the outside tire and the inner edge of the inside tire... if you put the camber to about 3 to 4 degrees the tire will ride closer to its edge on straights, but will actually have a better contact patch in the corners

*Toe explanation by jannesari

Toe Angle - You're standing behind the car, looking toward its front. Look at the tires. Picture an axis running thru each of them from top to bottom. I'm dialing in a +, positive number. You see the part of the tire closest to the front of the car - yes both the front and the rears - is now pointed into the wheel-well. Just the opposite happens - the part closest to the front rotates outward - when I dialied in a negative, -, number. You understand what settings them each way does? Picture it: if they're set negative, meeting the road at an outward-looking angle? Think about which way they'd be compelled to go in each case.

Downforce - 1st, look at any Race Car and notice what their downforce is set at. Yep, its usually all the way up. Doing this will make your car handle better and be more stable. The tradeoff is that a high downforce pushes your car down on the road, increasing drag, which means your car will have slightly lower acceleration and top speed. The handling improvement is well worth the tradeoff IMO except for on the Test Course.

VCD - This controls how much of the driving is done by the front wheels in an AWD car. If you set this low, then the car will have characteristics of a RWD car. If you set it high, then the car will handle like a true AWD vehicle(including understeer).

AYC - This can impact cornering characteristics by regulating the torque distribution between left and right wheels upon acceleration. If you set this strongly, the car will be easier to steer, too strong will make the car have a tendency to oversteer.

Weight Balance - You can add a ballast to either the front or the rear to change the weight distribution and handling characteristics.

==============================================================================

======================== 9d.TUNING PRESETS(GTPRE) ========================

This section is for players who need help with their tuning setups. Thesesetups are not the best or professional by any means. They are simply meantto be used as a base to start out on, which you can change and fine tune toyour personal driving style.

*My driving style is a mixture of grip driving and controlled drifting. These base setups may or may not work for your particular style.

*When starting out with gear ratios, the best thing to do is just change the auto settings until you find one to your liking.

Gear Ratios(for my style) -

1st - +152nd - -203rd - -254th - -355th - -60(or all the way wide)6th - all the way wide

Final - adjust it until the end of the last gear is just below the top-right corner of the chart.

I don't use the typical -10,-20,-30, etc. sequence because that limits myoptions for acceleration or top speed. Using my setup gives plenty of low-endtorque in gears 1-4 and allows for a very high top speed. This is due to the

fact that a lot of courses in Gran Turismo 4(such as Circuit de la Sarthe andNurburgring Nordschleife) have technical sections which require accelerationand straights that need you to have the throttle wide open.

Tires -

I usually use R3 whenever possible. S2s if racing tires aren't allowed. Forlong races, I will have the front tires at R2/R3 and the rear tires at R1.

Suspension -

Spring Rate - 75-90%Ride Height - 0-10%Shock Bound/Rebound - defaultCamber Angle - front 3.3-3.6 / rear 2.4-3.1Toe Angle - front 0 / rear 1Stabilizers - default

This suspension setup is for road races without many elevation changes. Thespring rate and ride height is setup the same as many of the race cars you canwin. This will improve cornering speeds and stability. For courses with a lotof bumps/elevation changes, the ride height may need to be higher and thespring rate a little softer.

Downforce -

Front - 100%Rear - 100%

This will improve the handling and stability of the car greatly. The tradeoffis that it will increase drag and limit top speed/acceleration.

*These are my main setups. For any other setups, read the scroll bars at the bottom of the screen to see how they will affect the car's attributes. All of the other categories are changed depending upon the car(for me).

=================== 10.GAME FLOW(GTFLO) ===================

This section is mainly to help beginner's find some direction at the beginning

of the game. I will list a couple of different ways to get yourself startedwith some decent cars and a little bit of extra cash.

*For all methods I suggest getting at least your A license and maybe the IB so that you can familiarize yourself with the physics for this game.

These are for players who import 100,000 credits from their GT3 save

1.Go to Tuner Village-------->HPA Motorsports and buy the HPA GTI car. This car comes with 550hp stock and can win most of the early races very easily.

2.Buy a used Evo VII GSR and upgrade it as much as possible. This car can compete in One-Make Races, Turbo Events, 4WD Events, and any open enrollment events. This car is also one of the best rally cars in the game.

3.Same as #2 with an Impreza WRX-STi.

4.Same as #2 with a Skyline GT-R V-spec N1 except the Skyline will be more productive for road races than rally racing.

5.Buy and upgrade a Lotus Elise 111R. This can win the MR races, its One-Make Race, and some of the Lightweight races.

This section is for players who start with just the 10,000 credits

1.Complete all of the license exams up to IA. You will receive the Nismo 270R which can get through the early races pretty easily.

2.Get any decent starter car(a 200hp+ Evo will work) and go to the Special Condition Event #1 and #2. The first one will get you the Cadillac Cien which can win all of its races up to the end of the Pro Hall. For the second event, you will win the Toyota RSC Rally Raid car which can be sold for 265,000 credits or used to win the majority of the rally events.

3.Get a car to win the Lightweight K-Car Cup in Beginner(a Honda Beat works here). You will win the Ginetta G4. Use this car to win the Sunday Cup and any other races you see fit(even up to the Clubman Cup) to save up a little money. Upgrade it as soon as you can. Now, enter the European Classic Car league, the European Lightweight event, and 1000! miles. This will give you over 1,000,000 credits with 3-4% of the game complete.

=================== TIPS/TRICKS (GTTIP) ===================

- For endurance races, it is best to equip the hardest tires you can that will still give you an advantage. Harder tires wear down a lot slower than the softer ones. If you're in an FR car and need more traction to be able to win, then you can equip R2/R3 tires on the front and R1 on the rear. The rear wheels drive the car so naturally the tires wear down quicker.

- After you acquire a car from a lot go get an oil change. This will add a few extra horsepower.

- In B-spec mode, you can speed up the race to 2X or 3X by holding R1 and pressing right. The driver will automatically pit, and you'll have to reset the 3X after every pit.

- You dont have to enter a race just to tweak or customize your car. All you have to do is press "Start" on the first screen when you enter your "Home" and the car customize screen will load.

- Watching the demo for license exams can help greatly

- Press L3 to speed up a replay

- If you have a GT3 save, you can transfer 100,000 credits to use at the beginning of the game. You have to go to Home--------->Status and press start.

- Press R3 at the countdown before a license exam to display lines telling you when to brake and accelerate(this only works on National A and B)

- The Black Race Cars: *cue scary music*

Between days 694 and 700 there are 4 black Race Cars that can be found used.

Used Car Showroom II:

Toyota GT-One Race Car '99 = 2,924,999

Nissan R390 GT1 Race Car '98 = 2,924,999

Used Car Showroom I:

Mazda 787B Race Car = 1,224,999

Nissan R92CP Race Car = 1,224,999

These cars can be found at the bottom of their respective showrooms. Since they are used, they will naturally have less horsepower than their new versions. But . . . . . . they're BLACK!!!!! Remember the oil changes.

- Easy Money: Once you have enough money, buy a Mercedes that can win the Legend of the Silver Arrow competition. Use the car that you win to enter the Deutsche Touring Car Meisterschaft. Win this and the prize is a Mercedes CLK-GTR Race Car which can be sold for just under 800,000 credits! The B-spec'd time for the

championship is approx. 8 minutes.

Quoted directly from LuNAcY3351(thanks a lot for this one):

"I found a different way of gaining more Cr. at ONCE. Now it may be differentfrom attending the 2nd Special Condition race..this time it's B-spec, takes abit longer and a bit more races, but you gain quite a lot at once. Also, it'snot a "newbie" thing..meaning you can't immediatly do it when you buy the game..I don't know if it has been mentioned before..but here comes.............

It's using the CLK touring car to attend the German Touring Car Cup, B-spec,win, sell the CLK-GTR. I've done "research" on this, comparing the times andstuff. If you decide to win all the races THEN sell the CLK GTR, you'll gain893,749. That's ~3.25 times the 2nd rally race.

How bout the TIME required, you ask?On the rally race, it's A-spec and it must be. Let's take the ok-time laps inthat race...let's say 2 minutes per lap. 4 minutes per race. That times two is8 minutes for 275,000.

On the German Car Race, we'll take the VERY VERY WORST laps the AI inside theCLK Touring Car could possibly do (that is adding 30 seconds from my trial, setat 3). 8'30s for the first race, 8 minutes for the second, 6 mins for thethird, 7'30s for the fourth and 7'30s for fifth.That's 37'30s for all 5 races..damn..

but WAITTT!! YOU COULD B-SPEC!!!!!! HAHAHA!!!

So let's say you actually managed to B-spec all of them..it'll take youprobably 13min..but WAIT AGAIN! You could win the CLK GTR just by winning 3 ofthose 5 races! So it'll probably be 8 minutes ideally or less for 893,749 Cr.

You decide which one is better...of course, the negative side is that it addsto your win:total ratio if you care.

Now here is what I used:-Mercedes CLK Touring Car from the first Mercedes manufacturer race..everythingtuned (I used Turbo instead of NA).-R3 front tires, R1 back.-80mm height, front and back by the suspension tune.-+4 front toe angle, 0 back (second last option in suspension tune)-#9 auto transmission setting"

*The Audi A4 and Audi TT Touring Car are both better than the Mercedes. They can be purchased in the Audi Car lot.
