I have a championship for you to try.

I think its the polyphony digital cup. 3 races:
-madrid short
-trial mountain
-grand valley

the car:
mini coope 1.3i '98
fully tuned with racing softs

the ford gt will give you the most trouble in those races. Trial mountain is the only guaranteed win.
madrid has to be the hardest since it is mostly straights
 
Wait untill you win the Berlinette R/S Coupe to try and race the clubman cup in the amateur a-spec series. It's really a challenge IMO. Just keep it stock.

I race with a wheel but this MR car is definatly a challenge to keep from spinning out. Except for perhaps the last race on Cape Ring Periphery. It might be a little bit too fast to be a challenge. Especially because of the road circling up at 1/3 of the track. You can almost floor it there and take over the 1st position the first lap already. But it's a cup so... I don't know.
 
Not an A Spec but an excellent test is the Autumn Ring in the Mini Seasonal. The challenge is to win the race with sports hard tires.

I finally accomplished it but it required a lot of driving and suspension tuning. The problem is that you need to run laps at about a 44 sec average which is very difficult because the sports hard tires can't produce enough traction to carve the turns or lay the power down. Adding HP or lowering weight don't solve the problem. Winning with Sports medium is easy.

Try it, it's really a lot of fun.

So in response to my earlier post I have created a Doc with all the AI tyre Selection for each race in A-spec:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AhyX_RWEd1Z1dDRYWEJKYjBPbmZZQzNUOF83Q1R4NXc

This is basically copied over from B-spec which tells you what the tyre restrictions are. If anyone finds that there are mistakes then please let me know. Also If people would like more info such as recommended PP then I can add this too, but the information is easily accessible within the game
