One reason I see why TZ is keeping it self off from new machines is maybe it's letting it's 'international' branches try it out first and if it's click, they'll get the reports for them to analyze and see if the Filipino audience is also going to wrack them up with the same amount of patronage the said machine is going to have...

Remember WMMT3? It gained so much patronage that when DX and DX+ came, TZ was the first to acquire and use the said machine... Same with ID4... And with 4's success, they decided to get V5 but somehow, people got wary of the price of 4 vs WMMT... Remember... WMMT cards sell cheaper than ID cards... So that's how I see why...

But with the birth of the same card system for WMMT, prices will go up for WMMT and may go in par with ID card prices, making the two compete on the same level field again...

I just hope TZ gets the online battle going on soon enough...

AND I AM STILL APPEALING TO THE TZ MANAGEMENT... BRING BACK ID6AA HERE IN RP MANILA FOR PETE'S SAKES!!!! ME WANT TO TUNE HERE!!!

@junetrish024


They will put up ID6 machines if the online test is effective here..but I guess it is impossible to happen..


It is still just like ID5, 2 areas are only available, Megamall and G4.. Same goes with today on ID6AA just what TFUJIWARA said the machine coming from TZ Active in Trinoma in now on TZ Megamall..

Na-input ko na.

Protip: Do not drive Snow like you would Rain or Dry. It's a subtly different game that you learn after a few halfhearted passes.

FF's and 4WD's do in fact shine here. I tried all four, and the FR and MR fishtail like mad, sometimes unpredictably.

I'm getting this fuzzy feeling that I made my GC8 and full-SPEC'd it at the right time, now that I'm at ease with it as far as its handling is concerned (though I still won't be using it on Akina Lake).

I just hope it won't disappoint me in the snow as advertised. *fingers crossed*

Hitting the rev limiter also isn't much of a challenge. Pull off the fireworks turn right, (Read: No wall contact; a 120+ speed) and you'll pull into 170 before you make the 2nd to the last turn.

You'll actually accelerate much easier through shallow corners in higher gears. Like the one just before the four hairpins; just keep your foot on the gas and don't be surprised that your speed isn't wavering.

ENTERING the hairpins however, is a different story.

One day I'll understand the things you guys are talking about lol xD

anyways, I spent like 1,300 pesos today but in the end I felt that i didn't improve (or the maps and opponents are just getting more challenging everytime?) lol xD it takes me an average of 3 race before i win facepalm.gif

what map is a good place to practice driving? (or should i just continue story mode and learn?) sorry, newb here laugh.gif



I also bought a gc8 just to try it, it's spec 1 atm,
and my AE86 is at spec 4, Spec 5 is the max right? TIA! happy.gif

I suggest you just continue playing story. Once you hit legend though, Spam Usui until you can get times below 2'50. That's a fairly good indicator that you know your suff.

Are you new to ID in general?

Ah. That might explain it. I can imagine then why you'd be having that much trouble if you didn't know the maps very well.

Ooh. Ah.

I guess that means you haven't passed the initial story modes. Well, that's all practice then.

Last Friday I experimented with different cars. I ended up getting an all-Mazda lineup on my card. smile.gif

I think I'm an FC3S and NA6C convert now. Compared to them I now find the RX-8 too tail-happy for my preference.

Tried an Evo VII, too. Didn't like it outright. It felt like it wanted to understeer all day long and I couldn't find a way of making it rotate better on the throttle.

I saw Nikki's Cappu on the leaderboards for the right cab today.

I find that ADORABLE beyond reason.

Probably because the Cappu is at the tail end of the rankings?

And you'll probably have to make a new card to have that coffee car, unless you're scrapping either the Z or the FT-86 on your current card LOL.

I'm not getting an EA11R.

I only wished to express my amusement that our resident Cappu user managed to get onto the leaderboard.

Well, I do remember seeing her Cappu on the leaderboard as early as two weeks ago. That was for Usui clockwise, I think.

Maybe I'll try a stock Cappu some time, just for the hang of it.

That being said; Gambareh Nikki-chan! It'd be awesome if you managed to grab one of the top 3 spots.

Assuming she still browses the forums, anyway.
