I have been racing more than I have been trying to get my Super License. But the other day, I decided to go ahead and finish up all my licenses. I have all but the last two, the second to last (the one with the TVR in the Tokyo Special Circuit. That damn thing feels like it's on ICE! I'll get through it, but any tips on this exam would be cool. That course is a beyatch, too. Lots of turns and that car has crazy power...you really gotta watch the throttle.

These exams were very fun and very challenging. I can't wait to finish them off...so, any tips on this would be cool...

The Viper GTS race car at Laguna was quite cool. The corkscrew is freaking awesome...!

And what is that last exam like? It's some kind of crazy race car...but is it the hardest of all the super license exams?!



Oh, one limitation with the wheel I have found is the steering ratio - lock to lock isn't great enough. Sometimes I'm at full lock at it's not enough. That kind of bothers me and to compensate, you have to slow down...and slowing down sucks! Anyone else notice this?

 

Man...guard that memory card with your life. My friend was over trading some cars and doing some races. Well...A couple of days later I go to race for a bit and realize that I no longer have any of my cars in my garage, but have my friends cars instead. I was about 60% done with the game and am now starting over. I have to redo all of the damn tests.

The only good thing to come out of it is that I make him buy new cars for me and fix them all up. I can buy them off his card for retail! My fully modified S2K is cleaning up the races.

 

yes guard that mem card

the s license tests piss me off ive only gotten one of them after many many trys on top of that my ps2 cant play dvd's or games on dvd discs like GT3 so now im super pissed at sony due to their 90 day warranty
......im missing GT3

 

The last test is in the Toyota GT-One car on the Monaco circuit. You get no traction or stability control on a super tight twisty course and mucho horsepower. The best piece of advise I can give is to just watch the demo a few times, you've been playing enough now you should be able to do it in only 40 or 50 tries hehe.

dude, S License is almost impossible to get

 

Oh, I don't think I mentioned how many bad words I used in getting the S Licenses...!

I was really frustrated with that stupid slow POS Toyota in the rain. ARGH! The GT40 in Seattle took a ton of tries too, but that was probably my fave car...damn, it's freaking fast!

The last turn on Laguna always bit me, too - the fairly tight one that comes into the front straight/finish. I would never brake in time and end up in the sand or into the tires. I almost threw the damn wheel through the TV set!

I think I have pretty good control of the game now though. The TVR will be a test and the Monaco run on the last one will take at LEAST 40-50 tries! I have the button sequence for "Try Again" down without even looking!

I'm not even a gamer, but this game kicks ass...!

The last test is a Toyota GT1 Le Mans car on the Monaco course. It only took me about 10 tries, but I know that for most of the people I've talked to it was the hardest test for them. The one I hated was the Ford GT40 on the Seattle course. That test took me forever to get past.

My best suggestion to get past the test is to run it a few times to get familiar with the car and the course and then watch the demo to see if the computer has some better lines you can use through the corners. Then just keep running through it until you pass it. Good luck!

It's weird. I had more trouble with a few of the other tests than the last S-license test. I agree the GT-40 in Seattle was a pain, and I recall the GTR on Complex String was especially annnoying. When all was said and done I look back and say the tests were too easy to pass, but getting Gold on each one takes a freaking miracle.
