HINTS
CHECKING THE CLASSOF CARS
Beside each car available for sale is an icon (E, B, A, SA) which corresponds to
the class of car (p.4). There are restrictions on the engine displacement in
many races (i.e. the class of car). Make sure to check the class of the car as
well as its specifications. The color of the icon shows whether the car is a production model, works car or original car.
GET A BONUSFROM THESPONSOR
Win an Event Race and in addition to the usual
prize-money, receive a money bonus from the
race sponsor (only for races with sponsors).
The race sponsor will also become available to
sponsor the player.
GRIP ANDDRIFT RACING STYLES
As the names suggest, the grip setting gives more grip when cornering while
drift allows the tires to spin. Select “GRIP” and reduce speed when entering a
corner. Select “DRIFT” and allow the car to enter and clear the corner without
braking heavily. Make a selection based your personal style.
HINTS
POLE POSITION BONUS
Achieve the fastest lap in qualifying to earn pole position and a money bonus
(in Championship Mode only). Starting from pole position gives the players a
big advantage of winning the race. Try and set up the car before the qualifying
race (for example, setting the car for maximum speed) to get the best chance of
getting pole position.
VISIT THE WEBSITE
For more hints and information, visit the Sega GT website by selecting
“INTERNET”from the Mode Select Menu. The site also contains a
comprehensive guide to setting up your car and car parts.
