[ELVA164]

I love the circuit idea! Looking forward to starting this on Monday!

[Nsquared97]

Full circuit I assume?

My bad, I should have clarified. Yeah the full GP circuit.

[jaywood]

Outstanding! I'll get to work on this one soon.



All of these challenges with tuning are going to bankrupt me while chasing tenths.... haha.

Dude, I dropped $8,000,000 on the Ferrari 250 Testa Rosa for the last challenge to find out it's crap haha. Still fun to drive, and probably fast enough to win in career mode, but still a bit of a disappointment to say the least.

[E30 Wagen]

This thread makes me wish I had an xbox 360 and a TV. I've even got a decent wheel and pedal setup that I bought for another game a couple years ago but now don't ever use...

I could send some credits your way if you need them! I get free parts for all manufacturers so it's no skin off my back.

Hey, don't forget that car was built in the late 1950s though!

[squidmaster]

I have close to 750,000,000 and 100% discounts on most manufacturers. so if anyone needs credits lmk.

Yikes! I was looking at that car, as well as the super expensive old Aston.

Haha, thanks.... I'm alright, I just need to do a few more races to get more free parts. I have all of the common ones, but the obscure ones aren't there yet.

[squidmaster]

Could definitely take off another second

Haha yeah I know. Still happy I bought it, between that and the D-Type I actually really, really enjoying driving the older sports race cars.

Holy crap you've spent way more time on that game than I have haha. Career mode/online/both?

[squidmaster]
