aww,your all worried about money, when you get to be a big baller <cough>me</cough> money aint a thang.

NTN, by details, I mean you weren't too specific as to which STI we were gonna use. Im pretty sure I'm having a slow day. And wah tuning, and what track, and what tires.

Lol dont flip out, i got the card from a friend because we had beaten the game already and had the f1 car which pretty much makes it pointless to race anymore. So now i just keep it there to go drift and play around. Ill get on it tonight and see if i cna beat your times.

Nope, 545 here, it's cause we opted for the stage 3 boost while they rocked the stage 2. Different strokes for different folks. 1:19.874 and falling ~.500 every lap, I'm comin' at ya!

edit: 1:19.227... slowly yet surely...

Yeah, I've been rocking the Stage 2; faster response. But Gawdammit!! The power just went out for the second time this morning. It finally came back on, after almost 40 mins. And I was working on some good runs too! But I did manage one good run before it went out: **1:18.203**

Shouldn't keeping the RPMs up (such as when racing) kinda over-power (haha, punny) the quick-spool advantage of a smaller turbo? Hmm... I'll go put a 2 in mine and try it again...

You gotta tweak everything, not just suspension. Since this is an AWD car, the front/rear bias is one important factor. Personally, I like to have more power driving the rear tires, to help induce oversteer. Also, tuning the transmission is important as it can help give you faster acceleration or higher top speed...

Oh, and: 1:18.085 :D
