      And it's true even outside just NFS logic if you think about it.
      The CLK is a bespoke European race car that has a homologation road-going version that is basically the definition of 'exotic'.
      The GT-R may be a bit too high-end as a base car for being called a 'tuner', but it still checks out otherwise, as a Japanese sports car that has been tuned to turn it into a proper race car.

      I remember when the Sauber C9 would roar down the Mulsanne, the commentators would refer to its sound as very American. Now that Mercedes has used this sound for quite a while, the American identity is gone which is a shame. I wonder if the new Corvette Z06 can do the reverse of that. Cadillac will return the roar back to Le Mans and it will probably be the last, which is quite poetic since Cadillac invented the crossplane V8. Mostly for luxury reasons and not racing because a crossplane V8 is smoother than a flatplane V8 at the cost of weight. It's basically a halved version of Cadillac's famous V16, for the peasants who can't afford the V16 or the V12.

      I think i remember a GT-4(?) Race a few years back on the TT Assen. Top two were a Camaro and a lotus, they were battling lap after lap, lotus winning in the corners, Camaro winning on the straights. Across the line side by side probably 5 laps in a row. Eventually the Camaro lost out due to higher tyre wear but it was great to watch live.

    This mashup reminds me of the touring car races in the '60s and '70s. You had the huge, heavy, but powerful American Mustangs and Camaros with their oversized V8s plummeting down every single straight, and you had the tiny, light and agile Minis which came pouncing right back at them in the corners. Such good racing in that era.

    • @johncarl5505
      @johncarl5505 Před rokem +3

      That was only in the mid 60s and by the late 60s, the Mustangs became even faster. There was one race where a Mustang BOSS started in last place due to a penalty and finished third. They issued displacement limits soon after, effectively banning any Trans Am cars. Australia didn't though, so Mustangs and Camaros reigned supreme in Bathurst for a while before the oil crisis happened.

    I'd always choose a speed car over a handling car when a track has a long main straight. You have that advantage each lap - you only have to get a good exit, clean gear changes and drive in a straight line. Then it's down to skilful driving in the twisty sections to minimise the loss of time. Drivers in handling cars, however, have to nail the corners each and every lap because the time deficit on the straights is something they can do nothing about...

    That was a great analysis! I always saw the CLK LM as kind of a hybrid. Personally, I always liked the CLK-GTR with the V12 better for racing games.
    I saw earlier today that despite the AI for this game making it around tracks faster than the best online racers, it still has a hard time with navigating around regular players.
    I was playing GT6 earlier and was racing the Dream Car cup. I was in a 1967 Mercury Cougar going around the 24H Nurburgring course. I caught the 1999 BMW LMR on the last lap 3/4 of the way through. The LMR was on my bumper most of the time after that. I got to the end of the longer straight and came up on thst last corkscrew turn. As I did, the LMR pushed me for about 2 seconds straight forward and I slid through the grass right into the wall. There's no way I want to buy another game with AI like that. GT7 doesn't even flag down other players for wrecking the way they did in GT Sport.
    I bought the newer PlayStation systems every time a new one was needed to play the newest Gran Turismo. I wanted this game so bad before I found out it was almost solely an online game. Once they shut the servers down, that's it. I'm not buying a PS5 for that, and I'm not buying a new steering wheel set for my PS4.

    It's actually literal real life. Science wasnt there so focal point back than was top speed straight line speed and figure it out in the corners guy. Present day w technology the cornering ability and downforce spent gluing down during G force but also smaller engine restrictions as well in present day. Bravo GT7

      So, you're saying ... ah, I don't even care, like speed doesn't takes tech, like there wasn't a car with a fan just to get more downforce. Rather than getting the "than" and then the "then" right, you became a mechanical engineer.

    I think that TC turning on bug happens when you don't do the time trial and jump right into the race, even if you did the time trial before. I noticed that a few times.

    6:50 you have to go into the assist settings to make traction on 0 by default. it doesn’t correlate with what you had it on last race for some reason.

      @Darklord_tK Před rokem

      It has to do with not going into a qualifying/practice session during matchmaking that resets tcs to default even if you change it in the settings

    I remember watching Jason Plato driving his N.A. Chevy Cruze against boosted Hondas in the BTCC some years ago... the difference on big straights was usually 5-7mph in favor of the Civics, and it seemed negligent that those cars were deemed equivalent. The difference between the GT-R and the CLK in the video is large enough that they appear like two different classes on the straights.

    Grip vs power machine.
    The power machine has the advantage because it overtakes the grip machine in a straight line, where there is minimal opposition.
    But the power machine can ruin the grip machine's overtaking where the grip machine is strong, in the corners.
    Compromising the grip machine in a few corners can make the difference between win and loss.

    At around 7:00 you mentioned TCS sometimes turns on. I think it defaults to your TCS that you set outside of races in the options menu.

      If you enter a race without doing practice laps. TC will set to 3. Even TC is set to 0 en options menu.

    There seems to be a bug with TC. I've found that if you don't go into warmups it seems to reset your TC to default 3 sometimes. If you go into warmups, you don't actually have to get on the track. You can sit in the pits. But going into warmups seems to acknowledge your TC settings.
