*NOTE*- If you happen to know any Japanese or can read Japanese text,
        please go straight down to Section 3.1: Things to add to
        Upcoming Versions. There you'll find some of the things that
        I need to make this the best Sega GT FAQ on the net, like
        some menu translations and the VMU Mini-Games translations
        so me and other Non-Japanese gamers can understand what's
        going on. Thanks!!!!!!!!!

3. UPDATES/REVISION HISTORY

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.0 (09/03/00)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Re-formatted the guide once more, since when I did it last time, I used
 "replace", and replaced all of the "ps"'s with "HP". Well, that also changed
  any words with "ps" in them (laps, ups, tips...), and made them look like
  this: Laps = LaHP. I had to fix this, and now everything is spick and span.
  Thanks to  for telling me about this!



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.9 (08/31/00)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Just re-formatted the guide, and replaced the "PS" with "HP" to match the
  US version of the game.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.8 (04/19/00)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Added the "Reader Tip" Section

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Prize list in this FAQ. Thanks a bunch!

3.1: Things to add to Upcoming Versions

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

This is just a list of ideas that are in my head, and ideas that I
might want to add to some of the Upcoming Versions of this FAQ. If
you see anything here that you might want to see in Upcoming Versions
of this FAQ, then e-mail me telling me which ideas or things that
you would like to see at: thebeefycow@hotmail.com . If I get enough
requests for some of these things, then I'll add them!

Stuff to Add:
--------------
• Possibly a Walkthrough section, just like the one that I have in my
  GT 2 FAQ

• A Track Strategies Section, along with some maps of the tracks

• A VMU Mini-Game Section, with a Translation guide to help all those
  other non-Japanese gamers out with the VMU Mini-Games. If you speak
  Japanese or understand it, could you please send me the translations
  of what everything means in the VMU Games (the text), and I'll give
  you FULL CREDIT for everything you send in, plus you'll be helping
  out LOTS of people!!!

• Some more Questions for the FAQ section

• A Game Translation Mode, again, which translates what some or all
  of the Japanese text in the game. Especially in the Tuning modes
  of Sega GT. Hopefully someone out there is listening to my plea,
  and will send in some translations of the Japanese text...

• A Secrets section, detailing any secrets that may be hidden within
  Sega GT

• A complete Car List. The one that I have know is just a list of all
  the cars you can buy and win. I'm not sure if there are anymore cars
  in the game other that those.

• A Tuning Guide

• Etc. info, like smaller things in the game that should be pointed
  out.



E-mail me if you would like to see any of these ideas implemented,
or if you can help me out with any of them. Thanks!

7.2: Strategy Guide

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Different Types of drivetrains:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
4WD: These cars usually have the engine located either in the rear,
     or the mid sections of the bodies. 4WD cars use all four wheels
     when accelerating, hence the name "4WD". 4WD cars are usually
     the best when it comes to handling, although fall short in terms
     of acceleration.


FR: FR (front engine, rear-wheel drive) cars are usually prone to
       over-steering, and can cause some frustration. These types
       of cars usually have the fastest acceleration and top speeds
       out of all the types of cars.


FF: These cars have their engine located in the front instead of the
    rear, and are front-wheel drive. FF cars are usually prone to
    under-steering, which can be difficult to manuever at higher
    speeds.


MR: Mid-Rear cars (Mid engine, rear-wheel drive), are almost exactly
    like FR cars. The engine is located in the mid section, while the
    back two wheels propell the vehicle. This causes over-steering,
    a problem that will cause your car to over-take the turns, causing
    you to spin out wildly.
