its kind of like crack tho, I mean today I saw the Cerumo Supra (880k) and the M3 GT-R Race Car (940k) in used lot and I bought neither because I wanna dupe em.

and what do you mean by dupe?
you have to buy the car to be able to dupe them.

or are you waiting for the rest of us to get them and give them to you?

Oh and I guess you already forgot but I bought that FGT for you remember? So no I wasnt expecting to get all the cars from others. We are helping each other out, and I don't mind doing what I can to help as well.

oh and, I'm saving up the money so that I can get some of the high dollar cars, so that I can share those with you guys. I figure you aren't too interested in that supra of m3. (are you?)

I have a question about the Seasonal Events. I'm still a noob since I haven't had much time to play the game.

Are you racing other people online in the season events or are you still just racing the computer?

The Seasonal Events races are against the computer. I'm not sure about the Nissan GT Academy though because I haven't done that yet.

that 'white' one which turned out to be like Mercedes F1 colors. I haven't shared it to you yet but I don't have a problem doing so if you would like.

and, I think maybe you got the impression that I've been sitting on this heap of cash all this time, and bitching about not having any cars in Gt5. That is definitely not the case, I didn't get this money until I started duping cars and doing the seasonal events. When I was bitching about it, that was when the rewards system was busted, an issue which they have clearly heard around the globe and have responded by doing the Seasonal events offerings. I'm doing "OK" now, as you can tell I am not bitching anymore. But we are still sharing our cars, as a community because there are still cars we would like to have.

Ok


Anyways I've been buying the cars straight up with cash money, probably why I'm poor in game.

Also I got the M3 GTR Race car if you want it.

I have a strange obsession with buying cars I can't stand IRL and trying to make them reasonable. I will go along for a week saving for a FGT and then spend like 400k on a 98 Taurus and a Chevy SSR.

why do I get the feeling you have many 'strange obsessions'....

I bought a Lotus Carlton from the used lot because I thought it was a cool car back in the day. I haven't even tried driving it.

has there been any talk of new tracks? I'd love to see some more real ones in there. And we lost Sears Point which I think was a lot of fun.

Road Atlanta would also be a real nice treat. Probably very low chances of Road America but that would be nice too.

There's a mini guide to win that with the restrictions on and without turning SRF on. You can also try the given settings. Hope it will help!

I haven't seen any, but I'm definitely missing them. I don't know what it is about gt original tracks, but they don't always feel right to me.

I have come to love Motegi recently and was surprised they didn't include it. Road America is definitely one of the greats. Macau is another new favorite I would like to see as every time I end up playing a newer simbin game it is on that track. One track that I didn't think I would like in FM3 was their Nuremberg ring style ode to japan's mountain passes, and now I pine to drive it in every game.

see.. he probably did this i'm assuming
1. buy FGT
2. save game file
3. send you a copy
4. restore the game file

if he swapped 1 and 2, he could've done it for free, which i assume he didn't, hence his reaction of "OooOOooooooo...."

No, I was confused as to why you weren't going to buy the supra(?) and M3.
And you said you wanted to dupe them. You gotta buy it first before you can dupe it.

I'm not thinking straight running on mebe 3 hours of sleep... And I'm going to Vegas tonight too Hahah.

oh ok. I read you now. I didn't buy the supra and m3 but plan to. I didnt buy them last night because I had already sent a car to someone for that day. And I wanted to play some of the game. I will buy one of them probably tomorrow (tonight I have to send the Viper to someone here). Hope that makes sense. And I read you on the 'not much sleep' part.

If you did all the power mods, that's probably the reason it sucks. I only gave it exhaust, tuning, intake, & Stage 1 engine mod for the power. Then everything else that didn't affect the power.
