i want to play GT5 now, i haven't played enough of the racers i got recently.
GT , Motorstorm, NFS HP , Forza ... and a bunch of others its a shame.



i don't think this is so super great i mean what did you expect? that the car in the game is 10% slower or faster? this would be awful.

it's still a  difference which would be the difference between a winner and a guy who doesn't get the right to drive in the same cup^^

sure it's very accurate but that's what i expect with a car they put the most time in it. that's the car they were promoting a lot before release. would be interesitng with a car not promoted so much.



I don't quite understand what happened. Coulthard raced on a real track while people were simultaneously playing GT5 somewhere? Did the race start and end at the same time? Or did they just try to beat Coulhard's race time?

I think that's what happened.

You're missing the point: both the car and the track are very accurate. You can have an accurate model of the car, but if the track is not, you know, you won't get the same timings.
