No worries. My brother's playing right now, so when he gets off, I'll send you my Lambo SV. It should take care of quite a bit of races and make griding a lot quicker.

Feel free to adjust the transmission and aero settings to your liking; I've already got them written down.

I have an Evo that I used for the rally race that I can send tomorrow if you don't get one today.

I believe I used the prize car from the other rally event in Special Events (just one race). I think its Sobastian Lobes Citreon RC. Remind me is that the 245hp or 345 hp limit one. You can easily win with that car in the 345 limit. As far as the 245hp races, I think I used just the old like '84 Lancia that you can buy from the dealer. Then I used the Elise with proper tires for the Tarmac race b/c the Lancia sucked at that.

I checked out seasonal events (and online dealrer, great additions btw), but havent really raced anything except the GTR race.

I did the GTR seasonal, would cost too much to buy/mod a new car so just detuned by MSpec, got 4th but could do better if money allowed. That $450k is nice for 4th though.

Finally saved enough. $4.9M went to the Formula GT last night. That thing is quicker than my reaction time. I can only imagine how hard the Formula series will be.

Ran a few Aspec series last night. Up to 22 on Aspec and 24 on Bspec. Have to do the Nascar on Aspec and don't look forward to it.

I'm going to try sometime this weekend I guess. Though I'm probably making some homeade eggnog, that's not going to help my driving skillz.

I haven't gotten higher than 10th place in any of the races, it's stupid hard.

Also, I will be on later, Rich. I'm sick as hell and I need some rest. I'll send you the Skyline when I get on.

On Bspec my driver won 3 of 5 and overall. So hope I can repeat that.

Be sure to do the oil change to get that extra hp.

great. I know it was hard for the Special NASCAR races.

And yes, always get the oil change when buying a used car. Does it still work on new cars like in GT3? I havent tried

Yes, believe it ups the HP to do the oil change on used/new cars. And then as you use the car for a while it will bump it again.

really, ok I will LOF new cars as well. I think by the time you need an oil change and get it, it just restores the hp rather then giving it more.

I am buying a PS3 slim as we speak, as bad as I think the game is, it's like crack. I am determined to beat that fuc*ing game. :mad:
I haven't given up on the broken PS3 fat, it is backwards compatible so I need to fix it.

I will be spamming some of you guys to get my hands on some cars :gapteeth: =)

It said Xmas Eve. I just read it and it said Japan only for now but hinted at worldwide, why wouldnt it be!?

Random thought. Since I have a PS3 fat that cant play PS2 games (ghey),I am ganna buy myself a PS2 skinny. I sold my old PS2 skinny bc I assumed that the PS3 could play them. I saw one in Best Buy earlier this week new for $100. F*** yes! Twisted Metals, Kingdom Hearts 2 (not ghey, one of the best games), Gran Turismos, PS1 games, etc... etc... etc...

oh yeah I guess that is true. But I would like to play something that isn't so blocky and glitchy, and easy. Remember when Resident Evil looked like you were really there... cant believe you thought that now 10 years later when you see it today.

Used car lot has cars come and go. New car dealership has 200 or so cars, all of which are premium. The other 800 are found in the used car lot and some will be converted to premium in future patches.
