    Is it possible to do private online races on GT5?

    Yes. You go online, and create a race. You can limit the amount of people to whatever you want. Once it's created, there will be a number on the top left of the screen. Give that to whomever you want to have in the room. When they go online, right next to where you click to create a new room, you can go to a specific room, which is where the room number is entered.

    I sold my '02 Lupo regular with plenty modifications yesterday. I also spend days waiting for it to show up on the used car dealership. If I find one today I'll pick it up and send it to you if you still need it.

    Buy the Lambo SV, the car is a monster and is pretty enjoyable. I don't want to modify any of my cars specially the Ferraris so I use the un-modified SV for some races when needed. I also use it to grind money on the Lamborghini only race.

    My fixed PS3 arrived via UPS this morning. Classes are done for the day and I even got my homework done and turned in already. So I'm installing GT5 as I type this and then spending the rest of the day being completely unproductive. This is going to be a fun day!!

    I was thinking a Gallardo would be the one to buy, since the race in B-Spec is Gallardo-specific.

    I finally learned that GT5 does not support triple monitors. :( :( :(

    Their rationale is that the PS3 Eye tracks head movements. Except that it doesn't in GT mode. :( :( :(

    Forza 3 is starting to look a lot better all of sudden.

    Yes true, there's a Gallardo only race I saw but I haven't gotten there yet. I also think there is a race where a Gallardo is given as a prize, might be B-Spec as well.

    I did the race last night in A-Spec. A stock Gallardo will be difficult to win with, the best I was able to do was 5th place. After a couple attempts I went ahead & modified the car a bit. Tires, exhaust, chip, intake, gave me the overall advantage for the five lap single race at the Rome circuit. I wanted for this race to have a bit more of a challenge but after the few mods it was way too easy.

    I tried to give you the car last night, but when I clicked on to give it to a friend, bringing up my friends' list, you were not on there. However, I went back on there this morning, and you were there, so I handed over the keys. Kick some ass with it!


    I got to the point where I can compete in the highest level kart race. There are two races at that level. Very difficult.......those suckers will spin you out, bump you, whatever it takes to take you out - ruthless! I did win the 1st one after several attempts. $119,000 was the prize! Sweet. Now on to the second race........

    I probably hadn't accepted the request yet. Been a lot of late nights and not a lot of gaming :(. Thanks!

    There's a new update, 1.03 which is 149 MB. From what I've seen so far it added mechanical damage but online only, however, it is quite good from the little I played.

    I'd play, when I can. There's talk that they will be adding reward cars to on-line play soon too!
