Yeah, what a POS. It's the only car so far that I've had way too aggressive throttle limitation. It's either all, or nothing. Turn the wheels an inch? Half throttle.

And yes, I've tried it with just about every combination of settings.

i just got racing soft tires and turbo kit stage 3. Then turn the downforce all the way up. Also, change the gear ratios so that you can go up to 380-400km/h (240mph or so). The oval one...you can slipstream all the way and then once you are in front they shouldn't be able to catch you because your are will corner so fast.

I golded this one with some luck...lol for the 1st turn...don't brake, just lift the throttle and jerk the steering wheel to the left so that you drift a bit and then modulate the throttle so that u don't go off course. Then just try to maximize your exit speed after the last corner.

If you gift the car to a second account then gift it back, you get another paint chip to use again. Keep doing that for unlimited.

I put one of my level 0 bpsec guys in a level 22 race. He ran out of stamina after 3 laps or so. He had to pit with 2 laps to go after burning through the tires.... But he held the lead and got himself 7 levels.

this remind me something

for those race that you can put 2 drivers on, how's the xp divided?
is it divided by 2? or depending on how long each drove? or just no dividing, they equally get full xp for the race?

I think it's divided by 2. Every race where it's allowed 2 drivers. I've used 2. The high level guys I have run out of stamina just past half way through the race. Didn't know you could use just one actually....

I started leveling my low level guys. Because one race one of the 0 guys lost a race for me. Once he caught up to traffic he would just spin out.

For anyone looking for it, the used lot cycles in new cars every time you do a race. You have to enter 5 events for it to fully cycle. The quickest way to get a new batch is to go into license test b1, then just press the next test button until you're at b5. Then the used lot will be completely refreshed

i'm level 22 in aspec, 25 in bspec
i think i spend more time on bspec just because i don't have to be "in" game all the time
it's just more convenient i guess

I usually get him to first place. Then leave. Either change the channel or go do something else until it's done. He'll pit on his own. If I've done that track already and know he'll have stamina. I'll leave the cursor on the pace up and just press X twice blindly every now and then.

I don't think you can completely leave him alone at low levels though. He might spin out or do something dumb. You'll find out what races you have actually have to babysit him.
