Shoot 680k was not enough to fully mod this ZR1.

It's like 180,000 for the car and 380,000 to race mod it.
I can mod it, but I'm missing chasis reinforcement, super charger and racing soft tires.
So I need an additional 70,000....

It depends on the car. For the super fast racing cars I like to have a little power advantage with the controller, but I just did the Schwarzwald League B races in a identical audi to the ai and it wasn't too difficult.

That was at "like the wind" @ Indy.

I tapped the wall on the last turn along with my car losing power, they ended up catching up to me.

Assuming you were going 200 mph at the finish line, you won by approximately 3.5"!

I did

(200 mi/1 hr) x (1 hr/60 min) x (1 min/60 sec) x (5280 ft/1 mi) x (12 in/1 ft) x .001 sec = 3.52"

Man, I hadn't done cross multiplying in a couple of years...

Get the G25 if you can. There isnt a huge difference between the two from what I can tell.

I already have the G27. My friend wants one so I was looking for one and sold out everywhere.

And what's weird is that, I can't find the G25 wheel on Amazon. I mean, it's there, but it's selling for more than the G27.....

Amazon is weird like that sometimes. You have to dig around and see what others are available because they may be selling from a number of vendors. Also, is the G25 discontinued? That could be another factor.

Probably is. Because I'm having a hard time trying to find it.

It's either more expensive than the G27 or back ordered/sold out

G25 is discontinued.

G27 is the replacement.
