[POLL] How do you race in GP4?

Most of the time: Modding

Season: I like 94 and 95
Car: I like mid grid cars
Race: I pass through qualify and go to races (most of the time is 10% race)
Weather: I like dry (but some tracks I like wet - Imola for example)
I use Keyboard
Level 2 or 3 (since I don't play so much).

I usually spend more time spectating races but I recently started racing again as myself in place of Nakajima in the FsONE 2009 mod, 50% races, realistic weather, ace difficulty on keyboard. The season opener was actually one of the best races I've ever had as after managing to put the car 5th on the grid and being 6th after the pitstops it began to chuck it down with 5 to go and it got to the point when the whole field were driving on slicks on a fully wet track for the final two laps. Then after spinning off and dropping to 9th on the penultimate lap, I overtook Buemi for 8th on the final lap going into turn 11 and then Heidfeld for 7th in the final corner. Apart from that the only full season of GP4 I've done was a season of Formula Renault when I finished 5th after leading the championship before having 5 consecutive DNFs in the final 5 races (including causing a ten car pile up in Eau Rouge )

I play a carrier since 2003. Started with GP3. Now im in the year 2035, since 2032 i played gp4. Every season had 15/16 races. Per week one race. Thursday 1 hour practise, friday 1 hour practise, half hour qualy. Saturday racing 67% (so KI is choosing 1 or 2 stop). No championship, only non-championship-races.
I drive with actually f1 cars as my self but other drivers like Raphael Matos, Alessandro Balzan, Romain Grosjean and so on. I drive on ace-level with steering wheel.
I play realistical. I save the game every 10 laps, but if i do a mistake im not going to reload the game. If i had a crash, its over. My second carrier started in 2026 at spyker, 2028 go to mclaren mercedes (world champion 2029) and no i drive for red bull racing since 2031 (world champion 2033 and 2034).

Like to vary the tracks too, but sticking to a realistic line up for current championship

I play GP4 since 2002

i've done about 1,500 races

Most of time, i'm playing 100% races with keyboard, As level, mechanical failures. I take my name, never a real driver.

For each new year and the corresponding mod, i play first a short season (10% length) and after several 100% race distance seasons with Ferrari, Williams, Mclaren and sometimes an usual team (STR, Renault...)

i'm saving 10 laps by 10 laps because sometimes game could crash.

Since 2009, i've began a long career using all mods available, starting in 1979 (a very young driver 19 years old). Now, i'm in 1998 with 7 titles, approximately 95 poles and 80 wins for 300 GP (1980/81/87 and 90 seasons missing)

This year, i started a new career beginning in fictional 2004 year in F.Renault and Formula BMW. After, i participated to Le Mans series and Euro F3000 (2005). In 2006, I'm involved in a mercedes young driver program. I'm racing in DTM (2006,2007 with title) and Formula Speed. GP2 in 2008 with Title. Mercedes places me in F1 for 2009 season, with Force India.

Me and my mate used to play GP4 all the time as every driver and one would have all the number 1 drivers and someone all the number 2's and then we would go through the season.

Level Ace,Keyboard
I Rarely play races over 10%,and when I play I play with saves
I Play ONLY without steering assistance(You see it on my videos),so I don't play any mods
Playing since 1st May 2011
I'm used to F1C,so I only sometimes complete at least(!)a lap in my races
By the way,GP4 has maked me to can make an opinion for any F1 game such as F1 2011(Is not good,By the way)

Well I'd better add my bit, I've modded the hell out out of gp4 this includes weather pics, car setup pics, game sound, in car coms & sounds, cars, & tracks, videos, hmm have I left anything out? ah yes I like to drive with 1000hp (gpedit) 47% real weather, anywhere from 10% race distance to 55% mostly rookie while testing but when I'm happy with the game & how it's looking I'll settle in to a chp throwing my self straight into ace level with 1000ph (DA) off because it's so hectic you just have to be there at the end of the race to score some points! I ride as my self, that is my own face inside the helm & on the front of the car, My bro races with me in hot seat games, he has his own car with all the trimings,also in drivers choice & grid cars. there you go! oh yeh we have a lot of fun!

- championship season (actual season)
- realistic weather
- 40 % race distance
- pro level
- i save the game during the race, and reload when gp4 crashed

I played GP4 since 2007. I have played with myself in BMW Sauber F1 team (Team Member: Heidfeld), 2008- my driver: Hamilton, I won 3 championship(once with BMW, twice with McLaren Mercedes, Hamilton), I have lost 3 championship once against Button (Brawn), and twice against Vettel (RBR).

2012: Now I have finished the first race in Melbourne, I'm out of the race (spinning out), race winner Button (Pic, Petrov, Maldonado, Hülkenberg, Massa out of the race)

My Grand Prix 4 Files
I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

Championship 100%
Difficulty pro
Momo racing wheel (driving aids all off)
Realistic weather, damage
Season 08
I'm driving with BMW petronas (as Kubica)

Current: I play the 2005 season with a Fictional 2005 Trackpack *Pro Level*, 100% race length, realistic weather, Keyboard
Aids: TC
Team: Red Bull David Coulthard

One 3rd Place in Melbourne and 5 DNF`'s (I love you Cosworth Engine)

NEXT: 1994 Season Fictional Trackpack *1991, 1993, 1994 Trackpack Mash Up* 100% race length, Pro Level, 100% RAIN
Aids: TC
Driver: Martin Brundle and Ayrton Senna

The Real Story of the Race was that the Renault's fell apart and the Ferrari's didn't.
Rosberg headed for the sliproad and retired, probably because of Nicotin starvation they have still not given him a helmet with a little hole in it.

Some years ago i drove 2005 season on 100% on ace level

but in the end of 2010 i found Gp4 again in deep of my hdd and now i drive in a offline league from kimi the champ and it is a really tough competition.
Only 15% race length but grid hadicap for the first three from the last gp, a good physic and a nice mod offcours

Makes much fun
