I can't confirm since I don't have Test Course unlocked in GT2 here. Can anybody confirm that?

Just do that one easy rally event that gets you the Toyota RSC Rally Raid car a lot. It's worth like 200k+. Easy dosh.

The Test Course is definitely much shorter in GT2 compared to GT4. I'll see if I can get the exact figure up.

Well, as it turns out I had forgotten about this and only remembered it when this topic popped up again. So I thought that "oh well, I'll just pop GT2 in and see what the length of Test Course is in that". Turns out I've forgotten my PS1 memory card somewhere, and you have to get through all license tests to be able to drive it in arcade (I could still compare two identical cars in both games on the same tracks, but I wouldn't trust those results due to different driving physics and the inability to drive exactly the same in both attempts)...

If I can find my damn guide book, I can tell you what game days this car is availabe to buy from the used car lot.

EDIT: Found it! The days it's available on are;

29 to 49, 71 to 77, 85 to 98, 183 to 196, 232 to 238, 246 to 252, 260 to 266, 337 to 343, 351 to 357, 372 to 406, 414 to 420, 435 to 441, 449 to 455, 540 to 553, 561 to 567, 575 to 581, 596 to 602, 638 to 644, 666 to 672, 694 to 700.

The game works on a 700 day cycle, so if you're past 700 days on your current game, just add +700 to the numbers above.

RRR Protests RoGT Results
RealRacingRoots, user in the Rejects of Gran Turismo series has lodged a protest stating that users racing in the Gran Turismo 4 division have an unfair advantage in the championship.

"The users in GT4 have a huge advantage with a Traction Control and Stability control system that eliminates all Oversteer, Understeer, and Wheelspin making doing fast laps easier than it is in GT2 and GT5. I found this advantage most evident in the Golden Supra Warriors and the Springtime for Heidfeld events where GT4 users were able to traverse each track with little issue. There must be some sort of time penalty for these users as they are using an unfair advantage." RRR quoted in saying in the press release.

Event organiser Klon was unavailable for comment on this new development. The current event in Season 3 is called Speed Darwinism.

No AIDS? No problem! ALL the AIDS? Well, I will wait for Klon to decide on the judgement.

Klon wrote:Alright, driving aids are completely ... BANNED! From the next event on though to have nobody forced to redo their effort. I think that is a fair solution. Anyone protesting against this?

Yes there are, all of them. I think you have to go into the main settings menu for the game to switch it off, the same menu area that you set-up graphics options like TV position etc.
