Small update on my game:
A pretty good day overall, first I bought the Toyota AE86 S.S. Version at the used car lot, 200hp stock(210 after oil change), it outhandles any other car in the same hp range(except the Elise I believe). What a little car...
And then I won the official Gran Turismo R34 GT-R Pace Car, its so funny to watch the replay with this car, the flash lights are all over the place.

Question on Arcade mode racing:
If I'm racing in arcade mode and use the cars from my garage it shows the Tuned Hp on the selection menu, but after selecting the car it shows the stock HP. Does that mean the tuning doesn't go through? If that's the case then let's say for arcade mode I wanted to change the gear ratio's or remove a turbo then can I go about changing the settings, and if so how do I do that?

get all silvers in the b liscense tests to get an RX8 concept car.
win the mazda RX series race to win the LM Mazda RX8 race car.
repeat this process several times, and sell the RX8 LM race cars you win for 116,000 a pop.

if you sell the Cien, you lose the car and get 0 credits.

yea you can win the begginer races rather easily. Also, once you have the cien you can do the second race over and over.
