Yes!! Looks awesome. Unfortunately I can't get on my PS3 until tomorrow. Hope I can use my Samba Bus.

Oh please let the 2J be the prize for golding all events...

EDIT: It's a RM Camaro Z28 from '69. :banghead:

Sounds like I may break out the "whumping" Alfa.

I didn't say I was gonna use it (don't even have one - that's why I want one so badly) I was just hoping it'd be the prize car. The 4WD seasonal was limited to 530PP, and the prize was the Escudo Dirt Trial car, which has over 700PP. So if we're gonna be using pre-1969 cars, the 2J would be a fitting prize car, seeing as how the '70s came right after the '60s.

Unfortunately, it's not. :( I'll probably never get a 2J :banghead:

There's this guy who obsessively collects '66 427 a/c cobras for no particular reason.... he's pretty much in heaven now.... :) 👍
 
69 corvette does a little too well agin those little cars but there's a Ginetta rabbit, how does it get 494 PP?
 
im using the ferarri P4 if you detune it all the way and reduce aero it can get to 500pp..(220hp) but its a handful on the comfort softs
 
Used a lightly tuned 69 Corvette that I upgraded a long time ago (Had engine stage 1 so I couldn't take it off :()

That means the Ford Mark IV and the XJ13 should be able to enter as well.

I've got the Mk IV, so I'll try this event with that.

EDIT: I won against the Turbo'd G4 on Eiger Nordwand by 4.196 seconds with 485PP.
My reward was 440K Cr., 47872 Exp.

Just used my Elan with 480pp and only got second. Going to try something else(non-racecar) and hopefully find something fun to drive that can get a little more corner speed.
 
I am hating the Ginetta G4 right now. That thing is a rabbit. I did notice something about it however. When you click on 'Typical Opponents', it is shown that it has 494 PP and 133 HP. That is nowhere near being stock. :scared:
 
Decided to get gold first before trying to get as low as possible so detuned my Ford GT40 to 257hp with no aero, or anything I could remove, and added 200kg ballast to achieve 468 PP @ 1198kg.
That wins $500,000 for the first race. Will try them all with the Ford first.

Premium car prizes ..... really suck loll... you can buy it brand new anytime... not a big gift..
 
Just went in and got a gold at madrid with an Isuzu Bellett @ 443pp. Turned similar lap times as the Elan, 1:01's, but didn't have the G4 to contend with. Now need to try and beat the G4.

Update. Eiger against the G4, lose by 8 seconds. No G4, win by 4.

Update: Did 2:00 laps in Monaco in the Bellett against the G4 and passed it on the last lap for a pretty easy win. 977,979 in prize money. 98011exp.

This seasonal is going to be no fun with the Ginetta running away with it on every straight...

Anyone have a Ginetta up for share or trade?
 
Tried to do the race in the G4. That car sucks balls. I don't get how it's winning. I'm 8 seconds slower in it than I am in the Alfa.

The AI has perfect traction and can gun the Stage 2 Turbo'd Ginetta down the straights, it's rigged.
 
Who knew the prize car would be one of the best competitors in this race? As we all know from B-Spec Bob's many failed attempts at the chicane on Monaco, that the AI sucks there, I think this will be the place to farm. I'm running a stock Z28 RM on Comfort Softs without a supercharger and it is power limited. Get a good tune on this beasty and we'll be seeing good things from this car.

EDIT: Race completed in 10:04, won by 14 seconds over the Cosmo Sport, of course the G4 was not present. If someone can give me a tune for Comfort Softs that will reduce the understeer, that would be great, I received 836,310 Cr. and 83,814 Experience running the event at 451PP, which is a very high number compared to what should be done.
