akplaya92 - The used lot is always changing what's there, and it looks like more advanced cars start appearing after a while. I'm seeing race cars begin to show up now. I'll have to recheck the new lots.

Just checked the used lot and found exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

It's like showing up to a sword fight with a gun.
I just did basic engine upgrades. ECU intake and exhaust.
#2089
messaged you on psn, need a truck. ill share whatever you want in return. im only missing the truck race in intermediate.
#2090
cheated a bit by putting traction control on 3 and abs to 2. it was still like driving on greased ice but I got it!
#2091
Iirc only forza does tire temp for inside middle and outside.
#2095
I actually used the NASCAR for the FR challenge and the McLaren F1 for some other race. They were given to me free with my Gamestop pre-order. It was far from fair. Oh, does bad oil hinder performance?
#2096
Ah interesting. I did see the gauge in the bottom left, but I usually like to know how much a tire contacts the road on a particular track. I think it was the old papyrus nascar games that emphasized getting a even temp across the tire.

nvm.. looked on google. not really a definite answer, but says you gotta finish the beginner and intermediate challenges. then you get it.
top gear track you gotta get gold on the VW bus challenge

The vw bus isn't that hard, but you need to completely ignore the racing line. you can pretty much swing around half of the pack by the second turn. That lotus is a squirrel of a car though. I don't think I have the motor control in my index finger to brake into that first corner.

Oh, I'm so doing that tonight.
As for the Lotus race, I think I've figured out a good strategy. As soon as you start to make the turn for the apex of Turn 1, let off the gas. Only brake when you're straight, and pump it. I've gotten consistent results that way, and more often than not I'm either ahead or right with the 11th position car.
Last race I was in fourth after the first lap, but I got a little squirrely in the Hammerhead and Gambon.

No 5th is bronze, 3rd is silver and 1st is gold. I got 4th last night on the Lotus challenge. I maybe could've gotten first coming out of the last turn on the last lap but I said fuck it, I'm not gonna risk it then fuck up and have to do it all over again let me take my bronze and I can try it later if I want.
