To add to more GT5 confusion, check out this article:

So where's Pike's Peak ? DLC or opening up in the future ?
That really also depends on controller setup. If you are still using the X button for throttle, it will be very hard. Switch to the trigger you are the most comfortable with and it's a whole new world. My friend swears by one of the thumb tabs for throttle but I like the trigger better. Works great.

I used to use the right thumbstick for throttle/brake and its nice for modulation, but you can't left foot brake which is very useful in certain cases.

That's the same one I bought, the '09, and race-prepped it.

That's the one that I would think is the right one. The other one is available in the used car market but it would have far less horsepower than the new one.

I can't get first in any of the new races in the Bonus race 2. The RX-7 race is ridiculous. Props to anybody that even gets up into 4 place. Best so far is 9th for me. And that's after the 4 time doing the race. The second time I got lapped by the lead car and quit.

The mini cooper race I managed 3rd, can't seem to make up any extra time, even went and bought the LSD and still can't manage faster times.

Yeah, that RX-7 in Bonus 2,9th was it for me. The car has no grunt to catch up with the other cars. I just watch them slowly pull away.

Someone explain these seasonal races to me. You're restricted to using ONE type of car versus a whole slew of other cars? It's just a race to see how many you can pass? How the hell do I get further than 8th place in the Skyline one? I can't seem to do anything to make it better.

Help me!
