Yeah, cuz a super big luxury boat with a Hemi, would smoke my lithe nimble modded RX-7 on the straightaways, when I'm in my powerband and my car is built for higher end :P Is it just me or did all the tracks get smaller? Maybe that's to be a better judge of speed? must just be me...

When I first bought Gt3, I quickly beat every level on hard in arcade mode so I could open up every track and car in arcade mode so that me and my friends can play as anything/everything outside of Simulation Mode cars.
What'sup with this point system on GT4?! The manual that comes with GT4 is crap! I notice that if I choose a harder difficulty, I receive more "A-spec" points for that specific level but when/how do I get more levels/cars for my Arcade mode?!
Also, when watching a replay with a friend in 2-player mode, is there a way to merge the 2 screens like the last few?! It sucks seein the replay cut in half and still split screen...ugh...
Time to Google some GT4 stuff...

If you are looking for a wheel go on ebay and buy one of the logitechs for the ps2 wiht pedels and wheel. I did and it works great. Make sure that you set up the wheel on simulation mode or the response is horrible. My brother and I made a wooden stand and pedal lip for my setup. So just take that fancy metal one and replace it with wood and there you go. Cheaper is sometimes better.

***BIG TIP***
If you refer to my post on page one of this thread, I am trying to get all Gold on all lisence tests. Turns out I am not alone with the frustrations of test B-5, the Mini Cooper challenge following a Pace car around Tsukuba circuit.
Browsed some forums looking for GT4 answers (since their manual that comes with the game is CRAP) and found out two things:
1. A-Spec points are awarded by difficulty level. A slow car with highest (10) competition speed will award you more A-spec points. As far as what they're worth/good for? I don't know. I'm frustraited as I am trying to make it so me and my friends can play every map possible on the 2-player mode. I want to find out how to unlock and get my arcade mode fully accomplished first. Like I did with GT3 so easily...
2. CLICK R3 (Or L3) for the BLUE/WHITE/RED help line in lisence tests!!! I've wasted 2 hours of my life on test B-5, I'm going to use this when I get home. Call it cheating or whatnot, but I just can't stand taking a half hour to complete a turn in a 94hp car anymore, only to result in being OFF by 45 thousandths of a second for the Gold award.

Good tips, though. I didn't know about the uh.. one thing.

Do you even own a PS2? Do you live in a cave? Does that cave have the internet? How did you post such a question?
You know those big control sticks, those two rubbery nubs on your controller? Well, if you press into them (like trying to suppress a hard nipple) it becomes L3 (THE ONE ON THE LEFT STUPID) and R3. They click, and therefore become a button.

The way I've unlocked tracks is just by racing. It'll give me a notice after I'm done with a series or something about a track being added to the arcade list. Maybe that's what the A-Spec points are for... Edit: This is in simulation mode.
