1000 mph?
Is it possible to make the Escudo go 1000 mph. I have heard this from friends and on an internet site. I am guessing this is a load of crap because I have only got it up to 315 mph or so. How can you make it go 1000? I have set the gearing correctly and everything, but it still only goes to about 315. What about popping a wheelie as well. I havn't been able to do that either, even though I have heard of people that did it. I set the downforce at maximum out back and at minimum in front. What do I do or is this even possible?

Ok I found the settings you need. You may want to save your original settings beforehand.
Tires: Super Soft front and rear Suspension: Spring rate:4.0 front/4.0 rear Ride Height: 75 front/ 75 rear Sohck Bound/Rebound: Level 7 All around Camber/Toe Angles: All @ 0 Stablizers: Both @ Level 4 Brakes: Brake BalanceL9 front/L9rear Drivetrain: Limited-Slip:Bring all LSD's down to 5 Gear Ratio: Bring the auto settings to level 48; then bring the final gear to 3.012; finally, set the individual gears as low {i.e., as far to the left} as possible. You should be left with: 1st 4.604 2nd 2.888 3rd 2.014 4th 1.485 5th 1.157 6th 0.875 7th ------ Others: Downforce: 0.38 front/1.08 rear ASM: 0 TCS: 0 VCD: 10% All above information provided by John Damiani Now that you set all that crap, just go to the Max speed race and start it. Then turn your self around in the opposite direction, that way you are going the wrong way. This way the race wont end. Now the guy that wrote the article said that his top speed was like 891.3mph. I never got that high I only got into the high 600's. Anyways good luck and let us know how it turned out.

As far as parts go, obviously max out everything, except for tires, in which I found Super-Slicks all around to work the best for me (I'll get more into why later on). Oh yeah, don't forget to keep your oil new; after a few runs doing the test track, you'll need to change the oil to keep power at tops.
And for the settings-- Suspension... Spring Rate: minimized (far left) Ride Height: minimized (far left) Shock Bound: maximized (far right) Shock Rebound: maximized (far right) Camber: original settings (doesn't seem to make a difference) Toe Angle: zero (haven't touched this yet; maybe some negative toe will help you leave the curve better before the straightaway) Stabilizers: minimized (far left) Gear Ratios... 1st: 5.295 2nd: 3.224 3rd: 2.216 4th: 1.610 5th: 1.235 6th: 1.000 Final: 2.000 (far left) Auto Setting: 48 wide (far right) Spoilers... Front: minimized (far left) Rear: maximized (far right) Others... TCS: off ASM: off VCD: 50% Most of these settings are probably the same as what most of you already have, but it just doesn't happen every time. On average, I will hit ~700-800 mph the first straight, then use that speed to ride the wall through the turn after that. The real trick is, upon getting near the exit of this turn, you MUST stay off the outer wall, but start close to it, turn as hard as you can aiming for the inner wall and hopefully you will hit at least 230 mph right when the straightaway begins. In order to stay at a high speed through the turn, without understeering into to the outer wall, keep the speedometer at about a hair less than 230 by tapping the side brake to maintain traction and speed. The super-slick tires help you by allowing the Escudo to move more freely, which is important when leaving the turn; where you aim the car determines how much road you will get before the straight ends, and it's easier to aim the car when you have less traction by inducing mild oversteer. Near the end of the straight, the speed moves up exponentially, so lifting the Escudo even a second or two earlier is rewarded in the end of the straight by a few hundred miles per hour. Also, it pays to end the lift by crashing into the wall later in the approaching turn, not but rubbing the outer wall as the turn just starts (meaning, try to start on the outer side of the straight, but end on the inner side of the straight). I haven't tinkered with the settings in a while, and it's highly likely there are better settings to make it easier, but it gets too tedious. Try different things and have fun. This is really only for the truly bored! It took me about 30 attempts before I finally broke 1000 mph.

I've had my escudo up past a billion mph using the glitch in the game on the Seattle Circuit II. Then the game freezes.

Yeah, I read about that in some other thread, but there's no way I'm doing that. GT2 was known to have its small share of memory threatening bugs, and I don't intend to do instigate an already overly complex program.

Got up to 419.2mph in the Escudo, but couldn't go above that before I got bored. It didn't seem like there was any speed left. It was doing the wheelie thing, but I still don't know about 1000mph. I used SkyNex721's setting which worked real well. There isn't enough straight on the Max speed test even when going backwards.

Thought of that, but still, the sound of my PS2 crashing doesn't seem all that appealing. I'll pass.
