Thought I'd give this a crack out of interest - holy shyt that car is an absolute psycho. All I could do was just keep it in 7th to get it round with my clean bonus in tact - got the hang of it by the end... this is definitely an effective grind but it is ZERO fun not sure if I'll do it too many more times... but I got my eye on some legends...

 

[CoolinInTheCut]

I fukking bought that stupid legendary Jag twice cause I didn't realize I already had it.

2.5m down the drain.

Should've stuck to the grind last night (it's actually sorta entertaining once you get the hang of that car) - had the two most disastrous Sport races of my life. Amazed I came out of the second one with my Sportsmanship rating in tact because I got a +7sec penalty when someone used me to stop before a hairpin sending us both into the gravel and it judged me to be at fault

Still, 2 out of 3 Le Mans winning legends in the garage..

So have they fixed all the bullshyt folks were complaining about?

Not always online but the payouts are pretty satisfactory.

Dope, I will focus on beating Sports before I get 7 unless I have a PS5 by then.

Update's arrived

Had a quick look and I think they've closed the Tomahawk grind loophole - my broken setup is now only a hundred or so PP down from standard.

All Gold on the Nordschleife Circuit Experience

Knew I was on for a hot one when I left my ghost for dust through the twisty section after the carousel but I thought it didn't look a big enough gap for Gold at 6.37.800 - came in at 6.37.634

I *know* I fukked a few things up too.

With the exception of sector 6 and 8 I had to do it to ya breh

I made a few mistakes too

BRZ GT300 is a fine ass car. I like it better than the 911

My zr1 (c6) is making nikkas rage quit in drag racing lobbies

Le Mans CE is still annoying me with that high speed sector that has you zig zagging.

Loving the 24 hour layout for the spa and the 1.5 million payout. Looking forward to that for Le Mans and the Nurburgring at 800 PPs.

Also loving the a220 race car, tuned it for 700 PPs and it’s outperforming gr. 4s. The only issue is fuel economy but the gap I lead by makes it a non issue.

Oh and the nür gt-r is fukking amazing for jdm lobbies. Much better than my ‘92 nsx

It is not fun. I just stick with Le Mans, the road Sardegna and now the 24hr Spa. Plus I tuned multiple sheets for numerous cars to use at various pp thresholds for those races so there’s that.
