Can someone with Forza 4 and the FR-S post the torque curve represented in the game? I wonder if they model the torque dip according to the reality. AFAIK GT5 does not model the torque dip so there might be a difference between in game and reality.

Thanks.

Why do you even care? That's a really detailed question and I can't see what benefit you would get from asking this question. Why does it matter?

If you're going to argue that the game doesn't reflect reality, then I would argue that reality doesn't reflect the torque dip. I honestly have never noticed it on the FR-S in reality. I've been driving it like crazy for 8 weeks or so now including Autocrossing and I can tell you, you really can't feel it.

So in the end, I still don't understand why this matters. As long as they don't put the FR-S in too high of a class, I couldn't really care too much about the "torque dip".

There's a dynograph when upgrading power in Forza. I'll upload a pic for you when I get it. BTW, that won't be until after it comes out next Tues.

The reason I want to see if that has been modeled is to see if I can observe the torque dip to see what the fuss it is about. In the GT5 version of the car the torque curve is modeled pretty much based on that of the concept FT86 so the curve is a fairly smooth line.

I wonder if it is true that this *torque dip* is really not noticable....
