They got rid of a lot of the slow suck ass cars. Makes you feel good huh. I mean in GT2 the cougar had like 545hp but it handled like crap in the game, accel wasn't that good, only good for 204mph, in real life it would rock but in the game it didn't

I liked the way the Cougar handled in GT2. you could get rid of the body roll by upgrading the suspension, and it had cool oversteer tendencies when you throw it into a corner at high speeds. mmmm....*drool*:cool:

It wasn't the worst car in the game by any means, but after driving the TT LM Edition, nothing compared to it. I still feel they could have improved on the coug for the game, but at least it was there.

the Camaro is still my favorite 3x in a row. I just love the way you could so easily induce it into a drift. and those midrange exhaust sounds...man, oh man...
of course the Skyline is a badass drifter too, but the Camaro feels more 'natural' at it

My fav was the C2 Corvette 427. Unfortunatlly it didn't return for GT3 =( It handled as well as I expected car last made in 1967 to handle, but killed those silly 4 bangers off the line.

Talk about an all-star of cars, I'd love to go see a race in person one day.
Everything from the McLaren F-1 to the Toyota Celica.
I think Speedvision needs to start picking up coverage of the JGTC.

If you guys liked GT2 and GT3 then you should most definately like Project Gotham Racing for X-Box....I personally love it....it reminded me so much of GT3.....

I personally wouldn't get an X-Box. I mean if I had the cash just lying around, well sure. That thing is enormous, it must be the biggest console ever, (well since NES)
GO PS2, GO PS2, except for when it's broken. Should have a bought something else. Until it's fixed then I'll love it again.

I saw a video of a McLaren F1 versus a Skyline. The guy says, "What you are about to see is the difference between a really really fast car.... and a McLaren F1"
It was a great video... ::biggrin:rool:: So who wants to buy me a McLaren F1!

firebird, you're talkin about the F1 episode of Top Gear. British car show.. best and most informative show out there, imo. I have the episode on my comp at home if ya want it I can upload for everyone to check out. I have around 100 Top Gear episodes all together on my comp. :)
Peace
Hale you would be my SUPER-DUPER-HERO if you could/would upload TOPGEAR,
as you might know, i lived in Europe for 26 years, and every Thursday nite, @ 9.00 sharp, the VCR was set, the beers cold and my mrs knew not even to breeth, since TOPGEAR was on then..... i MISS that THE MOST............okay, Speedvision compensates this a bit, but only for like 29%.......;)
too bad Jeremy Clark isnt part of the team anymore, their best driver if Tiff Needel btw, he can spin a car like nobody elses does.......
240SX ALL THE WAY... people say i'm stupid but the car rocks even though IN THE FRICKIN GAME it can't be that powerful... i mena dude.. make a 240SX have 450 hp with weight reduction and turn frickin 13's? thats just stupid

Miez you have any specific ones ya want? I don' have full episodes jsut cuts of each car.. so name a few cars.. or I'll jsut upload the sweetest ones
Anything with Tiff Needel is fine, (Jeremy C. is funny to watch, but he's not driving like Tiff does).
but yeah, was hoping for complete episodes, i will prolly try to get Jeremy's DVD this year for X-mas......

Yea, Do they have full seasons on DVD? Ive seen a few cuts of a few cars, and the show looks like it rocks! Im sick of this american b.s. they have on TNN on the weekends.. Moter Trend Television/Car and Driver etc... I want to see real cars driven by real drivers.. hehe
Look for Jeremy Clarkson's - Extreme Machine's on DVD (through Amazon.co.uk)
or directly at Top Gear's website -> here (http://www.topgear.beeb.com/homepage/)
Main question, can you play UK DVD's or better, are there US versions of those DVD's......i don';t think you, but you can always try...;)

depending on the dvd player (http://www.vcdhelp.com/dvdlist/dvdplayers.html) you have, you may be able to play UK encoded DVDs.. I know mine can. Also some dvd players can be hacked (http://www.vcdhelp.com/hacklist/dvdplayershack.html) or tricked (http://www.vcdhelp.com/hacklist/dvdplayershack.html) into playing other region dvds.
Peace
