I passed the last 2 cars on the second to last lap and was constantly coaching my driver on the last lap trying to keep him from going off track.
my 2nd bspec driver is way better than my 1st one for some reason. I had to do the truck challenge on daytona. My 1st bspec driver kept braking near the start/finish (I tried 4 times and best finish was second). When I created the 2nd driver, he finished no problem and never braked once.

I haven't noticed it. Then again I haven't really raced much in the rain.

I just recently started playing this game. NONE of my cars spin (including 650hp buick special) in fact, they pretty much all understeer. Do I have some crazy traction control on or something? I haven't changed any of the driving assists.

i'm doing the Mercedes Challenge for advance. it's around Nurburgring in the rain. i feel that there's more grip if i stay off the racing line.

Why is that a fail? Maybe they wanted to let the average player, with a 5 minute attention span and no driving skills, have the opportunity to see the finale.

I have suggestion: If you hate the game so much sell it and STFU.

I love how all the people here and on the GT forums say "OMG this game is terrible, it is rushed, I cannot change gear ratios, I am going to sell it, blah blah blah.....but I really enjoy playing it!!"

Yes it's fun, yes I keep playing it. And I have a right to my opinion: No matter how good the physics engine or level of detail in the cars and tracks, you can not deny the game is rushed and is broken in many areas. When I pay $60 (+ another $40 for a PSeye only to find out weeks later it is useless except in arcade mode) for a game, I expect an Alpha release not a Beta release. I expected better from a man that has gone on record stating that he refuses to rush any game. It is broken. In many ways.
