All I know is that in the Subaru event, at the first timing spot, I am 23 seconds back. At the 2nd, I am over 50. What is up with that? I haven't missed the turn (gone offroad) and am about to pass the guy in front of me.
 
Yeah man prize money. I suck at drifting so I never even look at them lol and I didnt know if you got something for them. Might try drifting out now.
 
Thanks dude, what do the numbers mean? We getting prize money for drifting now:tup:

Yes and other prizes. 1st is racing helmet random pick, 2nd racing suit random pick. 3rd racing suit random pick. Again, only won once.

Time trials working the same way with the gift coupons.
 
The Fiat race is actually 65 hp, not 85 that was listed earlier. You cannot even do an oil change on a new Fiat. Just able to add sport air filter to get to 65 hp and window weight reduction to get to 1,000kg.

Cheers for the info guys, money and prizes for drifting that's awesome. Can't wait to try after work!
 
Woot.

Not particularly proud of this, but just won the Elise race. Had to make a suicide run on the leader at the tight hairpin before the straight, worked out good. :D Man these races are tough. :(

Nice dude. I am going to have to work on that tomorrow. Gotta hit the hay here, its 106 am!
 
is anyone having problems connection to the servers?

I kept getting 'a connection to the server could not be established..

is been like this after I got my update..
 
I had a (ID = 2:12) error after I changed driver suits but other than that no problems.

I'm going to have a go at Trial Mountain.

It would be nice if someone could confirm what prize car they received from the 21 ticket. Even though it's random, just to get an idea.

Edit: actually, don't spoil it =P

I've got the same issue, (ID = 2:11). Perhaps it's a sign I should go to bed and try again in the morning?

Oh thanks for compiling that list.

For Trial Mountain event I can get within the 10 second range, but I might have to do some tuning /detuning whatever it takes I guess.
 
Just managed to win Laguna Seca, had to play bumper cars but managed it somehow. Now just Trial Mountain to go. 👍
 
Level 23 ticket is a god send has 3 of the last premium expensive cars I need!
 
I got the [P] Toyota 2010 Denny Hamlin #11 FedEx TOYOTA CAMRY '10 from a level 21 ticket after winning the Fiat event at Trial Mountain. That doesnt fit with the lists above.

Just sayin....
 
Urgh - the Fiat event is difficult.
Best I can do is 2nd and I'm 6-7 seconds behind 1st.

Any tips spinner?
 
For the Fiat race I purchased a Medium Range Turbo and limited the power to 66HP. Used a tune by JGfound in the tuning forum and adjusted the top speed to 150 km/h. Found it very annoying that you lose a lot of speed when going downhill in the first sector:tdown:. Finished second 4 times and the 5th time I started cutting the final corner and won by 2,5 seconds. Got a Camaro LM race car.

I can confirm this,
All of the NASCARS are obtainable through the level 21 ticket.

Still waiting to see that Ferrari 330.

smashed the drifting lol 15,900 with my trusty chrome SS commodore on indy put me in the top 50 temporarily lol Loving the new update. framerate seems a little better too for some reason anyone else notice this?
 
I got the Ferrari 330 from a standard poor man's LVL 21 ticket, right after having purchased an F1 2007. Sweet 2 for 1 deal. Now on to these new expert seasonals, all I can say is, I can't wait, for I never driven these cars before, thanks PD!

BTW, A -spec like the wind now feels more challenging
 
Cant wait to try these out! :dopey:

And yeah about the AI, I set up my rubber band grind to snag some of the OCD cars before work this morning and noticed it took half a lap or so to stay in 1st, the UI seems to corner much faster now.

Damn I won the Lister Storm for Trial Mountain... All I wanted was the Ferrari 330 P4.. Bummer!
 
Hi guys, I`m just happy to have been able to win the first seasonal race with the Fiat! I`m all sweaty but proud of myself, cause I did it using my own settings and tuning (and a lot of ice tea).
Contrary to popular belief,that you need only 2:03 laps my lap times were not all in the 2:03 interval, I had some 2:04 but the first lap I churned 2:07 from that poor little thing.
I got to the first place car right after the left hander leading to the last chicane, drafted him a bit then I left him admiring the smoke.
The setup I used was determined by experimenting with settings and tuning parts one step at a time. Here`s what I used:
- sports intake manifold for greater acceleration
- sports air filter
- 5 speed close-ratio transmission
- twin-plate clutch
- semi-racing flywheel
- window weight reduction
- rear wing left to default aerodynamics
All this got me to 67 hp, which I had to lower to 65. It was very entertaining and I suggest to all to keep trying, you will get there
Now to see what car pops out of the tycket
It turns out I got a Ford GT LM Race Car....oh well, just my luck, couldn`t have been a Premium grrr
