Whoooo what a machine!
996 GT2s are still my favorites though. But man glad Porsche built this rocketship. A nice farewell to the 997. It'll be interesting to see how quickly these start getting wrecked though.

I don't know if any of y'all played the original Project Gotham for xbox (not 360). If you do, you'll recall that the 1v1 challenges vs. the computer were usually fairly easy....except for the last one.
I'm freakishly good at racing games (several world #1 times posted in every Forza game, #40 in the world for overall "kudos" on PGR2 back in college)...but it took me DAYS to beat that (expletive) Guards Red 996 GT2....even driving an F-50.
Best motoring raced a 996 GT2 in one of their Supercar challenges and it finished a not-too-distant second to an F-50(driven by a BA).
Derek Bell loves the cars (he told me himself  ).
Yeah, once I get home from work, there's gonna be a few more video links in this here thread I reckon [/slingblade]

^ I remember PGR... I still have it, along with my original Xbox. And unlike you, I suck at all "realistic" racing games.

Richard, what was your gamertag? Back in the FM2 days and before I had my license, I spent a lot of time in the A850 class. Had a few top-ish times in my RS.1 and EVO X. Had them sooo dialed in, it was crazy.
I assume you drove rocket-cars. So gay

Was and still is Blank_Czech
I actually ran mostly A class, probably B class next, and some S class. I hated U class 'cause it was always a bunch of kids and it was hard to have a clean race.
I had a top 100 'ring time with a Ferrari P3 in S class for a little while and unless you were Korean and your scholarship stipulated 100 hour gaming weeks, I didn't lose on that track. I was more consistent with the 911 GT1 or the MC12 though. I refused to drive a Saleen.
A Class I alternated between a Tuscan S, a boosted NSX, and a GT2 clone (actual GT2 wasn't in FM2) until the GT3 RS (that was FM2 right?) came out and obsoleted about everything...but I wasn't still playing much at that point.
I had another NSX that I had set up for B class that was a little underpowered, but could carry ridiculous momentum. I added a Miura here when that DLC came out, but it wasn't quite as good.

I can't get top 25 times on fm4 without a wheel.
I've got quite a few top 100s though.

Lol, yeah, I think my best so far on FM4 is in the 40s, and that probably hasn't lasted either. I don't have the time to get that good again, and I also refuse to "play the game" and go and get leaderboard cars and stuff.
