Damn...Steve...SO TRUE. It really sucks when you're doing a championship, if you have a couple of bad races you have to start all over again. I made it to 22. I still havent beat that damn classic race car series though.
- use a dodge challenger R/T 70' with race modifications, full tune & racing softelektro

me neither. i'm just grinding and have saved up about 1.4 mil. i'd like to hold out for the 1991 Mazda 787B Race Car:
I don't remember its exact price tag.. somewhere between 3.5 and 5.5 mil, and level 23, i believe. i think besides the black gran turismo modeled gt lm test car, it's the only race car in it's class you can buy from new or used dealers. i'm sure having this thing fully-tuned could win that second-to-last expert championship with 1st place pretty easily.and why not.. not much else to do in the game..

You can beat that second to last championship with the Veyron, you can actually tune it so it has more horsepower, and obviously can shave some weight.

i have that car. i only used it for one or two of the races it qualified for, but didn't care for its handling abilities. i guess i'll have to see if i can tweak it to make it a bit more viable. with 900+hp, it's definitely got something to start with..

speaking of which... check this cowboy out:

a big thanks to kumori04 and electro. i'm not sure how i missed them for so long, but i did the bonus seasonal races and raised the ~5.23m i needed to get the aforementioned Mazda 787B, which is probably my favorite car now for some weird nostalgic reason.
this thing kills it in the indianapolis motor speedway 'like the wind' race! hopefully they'll add more bonus races soon because you can't rack up extra credit or cash for repeat wins :/

I'm having a right cunt of a time trying to beat the second last license final race, the one with the white Lambo. I'm kicking ass most of the race, then I'll slightly nudge someone and get disqualified. Drives me insane, rubbin' is racing man!!!
- SteveJobs0
what's up with the new seasonal races (ff,fr,awd) only paying out like 20k per race? i'm trying to get the forumla car, but at this rate, that'll never happen...
i think once i finish expert, i'm done with the game. there's no way i'm racing for hours or doing anything beyond the 10-lap races like the dream car championship of the expert class - that'll be hard-core enough for me.
on a different note, this game would have totally done it for me if they'd added sport bikes. really could've put some of those tracks to extra use!

Anyone want to gift me a Japanese car pre 1979. Just starting this game again and I can't find anything in the online/new or used stores. I'm still n00bin' out and any help would be greatly appriciated. I promise to return the favor once I get past the Beginner stage...
- JackRyan0
Naygon, I can hook you up tomorrow morning.

Well...shit, it took literally months, but I finally squeezed out 3 bronzes in the Sebastian Vettel challenge and got an X1. I finished it with a controller and not a wheel, but I think a wheel would make it easier.
- SteveJobs0
I'm back in this for a bit too. One of the new seasonal races earns you 490k for 5 laps of racing, so i was able to easily save up (read: grind to death) and grab this mofo:
and with that, I finally beat the historic race a few levels back. though it was still hard. the chapparel 2d owns in that race and just trying to get in front of it is near impossible, but doable if you can control that beast of a car. lots of shady powerslides to claim first, but i did it!now I'm saving up for this insanity:
20mil

Ok, so i tried the birthday trick yesterday where you sign up with a 2nd psn account and enter your birthday as the year of the car you want and then gift that to your main account. There are about 10 cars in gt5 that are of that year, and I just wanted the sauber so I firgured I wouldnt' get it on my first try. Nope, I got it, but as it turns out, you're now not allowed to gift cars that are over a certain value. 1m credits, I believe. Such a shame..
