race restrictions in Gran Turismo 2

takwu · November 30th, 2002

I am not far in GT2, but I have played quite a lot of GT1.

It seems to me that in GT2 Special Events, the races are only restricted by hp and license. For example I can enter the Station Wagon Club races with a Beat, or anything else in my garage.

But you can't do that in GT1 right?

Is this strange to anyone? Or is it just me :confused:

...yep, you're right, takwu. The restrictions in GT2 apply only for the total HP, licence, and weather the car is classified as RR,FR,MR, or FF and also weather the engine is a Turbo or Naturally Aspirated.

...as a sidenote: To find if your car has the correct HP to enter a race, always check it from your garage screen. This is because the HP number is displayed wrongly in the "salon" screen (that is -before- you buy the car), and also in the pre-race "modifications" screen (where it looks about 6 HP bigger)...

ok cool, I will go race the station wagons then, yippie! (ok but not with the Beat

)

about your hp thing... I know they're different, but I don't think it's always bigger or smaller. It differs for each car. Sometimes you can buy a car and feel ripped off because the hp is lower than advertised.

...yes, before you buy a car, the HP may be diffirent and may actually be bigger -or- smaller. But when you are in the pre-race "modifications" screen, the HP appears always a few HP bigger (about 6 or so)
