You know, those screenshots will be completely pointless once the game comes out in 2 months... Can't we all just use GameSpot? :)

I hadnt notice that. It looks like the air-tunnel thing to adjust the aerodynamics. Maybe you can modify the body forms to improve your car.

I think it's an sort of dyno test but instead of your engine preformance u get to see the earodynamic preformance, like a wind tunnel or something?

If you don't know what it means, you shouldn't be yelling everything out from things you don't know.

Downforce is completly different from aerodynamics. If it was downforce, I'd probably see a cursor pointing down instead of over the car.

the worst thing that can happen now is that the ugliest bodykits have the best aerodinamics.... and downforce

that would make the difference between ricers and racers,
the ricers pick the bigest,
the racers pick the best

Its a wind tunnel but i wonder wouldn't a roof scoop hurt aerodinamics. I don't know that much about it though.

Thats possibly the ugliest thing Ive ever seen, and Ive seen lots of ugly things in my life, including a Subaru Impreza owners club.

what in the heck is that widebody? it looks like a vaccum cleaner!!! -lol- but the new screenies with car adjustments makes me want to get nfsu2 even more. i just remember what my friend said about srs and nfsu2. he said that srs is way better because it has the car adjustments and stuff and i showed him the new sc and hes gonna get nfsu2 also.

If your friend thinks SRS is better than Nfsu2 then maybe he should read the reviews for srs before talking.

Wings can affect drag - therefore it's grouped in with aerodynamics. I can't think of anything else that would really be under the category anyway that can be fiddled with, I'm more interested to what they've brought to the table with the suspension. Hopefully more than just generic stiffness and height adjustment.

Hmmm, you might be right... Seems like in this screenshot, the color of the headlights seems to be in green...

The RX-8 in that screenie looks absolutely hideous.
Have the guys at EA gone blind?

Anyway, IMO the headlights look more blue than green.

Its not carbon, its mesh effect from the grills on the widebody kit, similar to what they use sometimes in JGTC.

Great???
It looks like crap (screenshot quality is not very good anyway). In the game, the TT is similar to the Hyundai Tiburon (in this way it is easier because Tiburon was already designed. Actually thay took the 20 nfsu1 cars and copied here in nfsu2. Copy and paste, simple.)
And I hve never seen a real Audi TT with sunroof. Maybe Im wrong. Or maybe it is an "awesome" feature in nfsu2.

Edited: no offence, but Summ converted me to Juiced zone :D I want to give a critic point of view in order you refelx of it ;)
