I'd be up for that. I bought a GTi today though not the 1.4. To be honest i was unerwelmed by the Gti thought it would be alot faster, but then its just an excuse to tune it up :D

Anyone got any tips, for amature 60's muscle car championships? I have a Chevvy SS, but it seems to bounce of the limiter at 117 mph and I am struggling to better 4th place.

 

Its the only race in amature league I have not Gold'd

 

Also, I would be up for an online Lupo cup car round the ring. It was a great race.

 

:D

 

I love this game. :clap:

[Critical_Mass 10]

You tried upgrading the transmission?

[ZippyVR6 0]

Yeah, I put a 5 gear close ratio box in, and it wont let me lengthen the final drive. I am loathed to spend 20k on a fully customisable, setup just to win one race.

 

I spose its only 20k, but I am struggling to retain credits above 100k at the moment. and trying to save up to get my skyline to 700 bhp so my B spec driver can actually win some races.

The race tyres are a fair improvement especially on braking stability, and yes I have done stage 3 and pretty much every other mod possible bar customisable transmission and suspension.

 

One more tip to improve braking stability, check out the settings for TCS and ABS and up them a couple of levels, this makes spinning out on braking into corners much less likely and also allows later braking points than before.

 

And can anyone else believe how much extra power you can free up from an oil change.

[Riley 0]

Good stuff. I've just finished up work ready for tommorow, so i'm about to crack open the budweiser and go online racing again!

[Critical_Mass 10]

Good man! Riley you are a demon, you were good in the M3 :D

 

Tell you what though, i had the most fun with the karts :D

 

Thanks for the racing chaps.

[Riley 0]

Anyone fancy some M3 racing? No M3 actually needed as it's in the standard garage.

 

All in the same standard cars for some good, close racing :D
