My god NASCAR at daytona with 12 people is a blast! Just look at what time I'm posting this.

Did you stay up all night racing NASCAR?????


How's that mullet coming?

Farbin Ill hit you up. And Nigel... sorry about yesterday ion my lobby. My brother is a dick

ditto on the nascar fun, I played in this room with 15 other people and it was a blast. 30 laps, weak damage, no assists, just brutal trying to keep your car steady on those turns doing 200+, a slight bump and the whole pack gets fucked.

That's gotta be awesome to watch. I could imagine with damage on, one tap and everyone is all over the place. Followed by half a lap of everyone going about 100 mph max until the cars 'heal'. Does the 'ABS OFF' trick work in those races too? It worked in the special events section, but from the nerd in me, I cannot figure out how turning off ABS makes a car go faster on a track where you don't use brakes. I went from barely finishing 3-4th to winning by 5+ seconds....



5Toes - let your bro just play for a full week, and while he's playing games, go make money. and buy your own PS3/GT5. :) Or if you don't want to do that, trade DAYS instead of HOURS. Doesn't he know that he's F'n with a bunch of E30 drivers?????

[NigelStu]

Which would be more entertaining to race? and to watch?

Karts on Indy.

or

NASCAR on the kart tracks...

Discuss.

Nah I dont need my own ps3. Haha I guess he doesnt know that. Still, the hours works fine, and hes at his friend's house ALOT, so thats play time for mes. Damn I need an E30

Nascar on kart tracks.

But still Kart racing sounds great right baout now

[DatUtahGuy]

also the thing with nascar is you have to know when to draft, you can seriously slingshot past the other cars with a well placed draft, it boosts you up about 5-8mph

[5Toes]

I hate Nascar on this game. I use so much time in every single corner, I think its because I am turning too hard, and the controller starts to vibrate.

Depends on if I'm wearing depends!

Few hours here and there during the week. Usually start it up when I get home and get my B-spec guys racing. let that happen while I'm doing other stuff. Then I may or may not play A-spec. I find online racing most fun. I play more on the weekends, but usually same thing where B-spec races while I do stuff and check-in every once in a while to start the next race. Not quite to the point where I can start a B-spec race and leave for a few hours... Currently at 26 a-spec, 19 b-spec.



Anyone know if there is a way to bulk-buy tuning items? I noticed that if you buy something but dont install it right away, it goes into your 'items' briefcase in the main menu and can be installed on any car of your choosing. It would be awesome if I could buy 10 sets of racing soft tires in one shot, and then add to the cars I want as necessary.

I'm hoping that there will eventually be an 'uninstall' feature, where you can take parts off. They would go into your 'items briefcase' and could be used on other cars.

The fact that there is no bulk buy is annoying (always has been). It takes a good 10 min to buy everything and install it. In those ten minutes i could've won $350,000. Makes me sad.
