Hi Andy,

 

Only got it out of the garage at the weekend... I can't believe you sent me that car mate!!! It's insane! Been winning everything with it! Handling is mental!

 

Do you not want it back at some point? Must have cost a fortune in credits?!

 

Ta

 

Matt

 

:D Glad you like it mate. About 500,000 :D One of only 17 cars you can race prep in the auto garage. Mental ain't it. :D

Don't need it back mate. Still got it. The beauty of saving it to a flash drive. I just reloaded the save after I gave it to you. :)

You can win "Like the wind" with it but the oval track is hard. Easier to wait 'til you get a formula GT.

anybody going for golds on all races etc? the AMG challenge was pretty tough and so was the grand tour eiger stage

 

I try to get golds all the way as you get better cars and more money. How did they get those SLS AMG times though? I couldn't even beat my own times, let alone theirs!

i managed a 7:03 on that one after many attempts on the full lap. that one is by far the hardest of the sls challenges cos, the ones in the rain are a lot easier to beat. i did have to cut the grass in 2 places to get that time though. i have all golds so far except the endurance which i havent completed yet and i have only just unlocked the vettel challenge as my B-spec got to 30. that one is going to be the worst of all, after about 10 goes at the nurburg i managed to clear about 4 corners before going off track so i think this is where my trophies are going to come unstuck :D

Well the B-spec after hitting it hard isn't as bad as I thought.

 

After getting a driver up to level 24 I thought it'd take ages to get another up there and another etc for the endurance races.

 

But seems not! You can enter a level 5 driver in a level 21 race (i.e with a powerful car and blow the opposition away) and gain 3-4 levels in a single race. I've got a 2nd driver up to level 19 in less than 25 races :)

 

It's gonna suck getting them all ready for the 24 hour ones tho! Hasn't someone on here literally completed b-spec?

Still a no go for me! Proper fuming! After my HDD corrupted I replaced it with a new one, only to find FW3.56 doesn't allow a HDD to be replaced. So tried formatting in my brother in laws' PS3 and still keeps asking for 3.56 or newer. Aparantly it's a huge problem for Sony and been all over the tintenet! So.. I'm now having to wait for 3.57 when they fix the issue and I can get on and start again. Really missing it now :(

Set all your B-spec drivers to 'share with freinds' so I can race them remotely. I'm racing Haydn79 and milkybarkids driver as I type this :D

 

Ah so how does that affect their win ratio?

 

I must admit it is a mild form of OCD but in a-spec and b-spec I am trying to maintain a 100% win ratio for me and my drivers :)
