B-spec endurance races

[Gizmo517]

I'm just wondering how many drivers I need to complete the endurance races effectively and what level should they all be before I try them.

 

[YassirNosir]

I had a level 0 do the Grand Valley race and he fine, just fine.

 

[SpookyVenom1]

The maximum for endurance races is 4, although a low level driver can easily do the endurance races provided he is in a car more powerful than what the opponent has.

 

[Jaedon]

Just have your primary start the race and 1-3 other level 0's. they will come out at level 19+. Just make sure your car is powerful enough. THe Minolta works great.

My first Suzuka 1000km took 7:10 hours with one Bob (825 XP/min). The second one took 6:22 hours with 4 Bobs (928 XP/min), but I'm not sure all of them got to drive.

u need back up drivers because your driver will be retired eventually. use your main driver and one other low level but change up the low level guys up to level them all. then the main driver will get all the work done and retire where the noobs will then be high level drivers with plenty of races left in them

Correct 👍

Dude, I really don't mean to be rude, or start an arguement, but for future postings please can you use correct punctuation, spelling and capitol letters in your posts, otherwise the moderators will not be happy.

I know it might sound like I'm beng a 'headmaster telling off a pupil'' but I can guarantee if you keep posting like this, the moderators will have a word with you, or give you a warning.

Just a bit of friendly advice - I'm not having a go at you, just trying to help you out.

arguement = argument
capitol = capital
beng = being

Everybody makes the occasional spelling mistake, but if you're going to post a message asking someone to spell words correctly, it's only fair to make sure you've spelt everything correctly too. In future it might be best to give people advice using a private message, if only to increase the chance that they actually read what you have written 👍

??? I have only one B spec driver, he is at level 37 and my overall B spec level is 32. He has run 20-25 endurance races by himself. When can I expect to have my guy "retired." This is the first time I've ever heard that...

Ignore what that guy wrote. You only ever need one driver, and you never need to retire him. The B Spec Trophy (Train a B Spec driver to the peak of his career) comes after 500 races for a single driver. You can run less than 300 races for a single driver and have B Spec completed entirely. I'm level 38 with a single level 40 driver, and he's finished all of the races except the Nurburgring 24H, which he's still grinding to. No retirement needed!

Yes. you have a point, but I was referring to his spelling in terms of text speak i.e ''u'' instead of ''you''. This is something I have seen the moderators pick up on alot more than an actual spelling mistake (like capital - capitol). I felt I wrote the message in a polite and friendly way, rather than being pedantic or antagonistic, which is alot nicer than other forum users I've seen who have been very blunt, or sarcastic, when they have come across the same issue. But, like I say you have a point, I will be more careful in the future.

No offence, but when I got to level 22 I had to stop (and start another driver) because it requires a minimum of two drivers to participate in 2 of the races involved, unless something changed in the last update??

PD only tell you the maximum number of drivers you can enter. The endurances let you enter up to 4, but you will have no problem entering just the 1 driver.

 

[Varegg]

I always use the max amount of drivers, they eventually need to level up so why not use them when you have the chance ...

Am b.spec lvl 35 as of this morning and have 6 drivers, all of them above lvl 30 ... my best driver is lvl 34 with 118 victories and 125 races ...

Am dying to get home from work so I can try my new Red Bull X2010

That is good to know, I am about to reach level 35 and have only used one Bob so far, he is level 39 and I was wondering whether he would last the entire bspec campaign.

So if 300 races = all of bspec, ie when you have golded N'ring 24H, you then you need another 200 to max out his career ? Can those 200 be very short races ?

(Using 300 & 200 as example numbers for my question).

 

[LouisLLH]

Yup 👍

Do i need to do some settings on the ps3 system? As last time, i accidentally switched off my tv, and my ps3 turned off too.

Because you have an HDMI connection from the PS3 to TV, and they interact in both ways. What o must to do is, turn OFF the HDMI interaction with your TV trough the PS3 settings, there is a function that you are able to turn off.

Something that refers if you want that appliances with HDMI connections control each other.

I'm not on PS3, I can´t tell you precisely where it is, see on ps3 settings menu.

Here's another question about b-spec endurance races. Let's say hypothetically a race pays out 100000 xp for finishing. Now if you have 2 drivers racing will they each get 50000 a piece or will both of them receive the full 100000?

 

[Sander H]

Both 50.000, if you enter 4 drivers they get 25.000 each. Not sure if it's also decided by how many laps your bobs do. I think if you let 1 bob do only 1 lap he'll still get 25.000.

 

[Destinkeys]

The drivers don't get the money... YOU DO! You also get the XP in total, where the drivers get whatever XP for only the races they were involved in.

Not the case from what I have seen so far, and no one has yet to prove otherwise.

If race pays out 100000xp and it was 2 drivers max, and you entered 2 drivers and they did an equal number of laps then they would get 100000xp each, and you would get 100000xp.

Now if it was a 4 bob max race that paid out 100000xp and you entered 2 drivers and they did an equal number of laps then they would get 200000xp each, and you would get 100000xp.

My belief is that the XP paid out to yourself, is then multipled by the max number of bobs you could enter into the race, and then divided by the number of laps each bob did and they get their respective amounts.

 

[Sander H]

Oh ok, I'm sorry for the wrong info. Kinda hard to figure out since you can't see the actual xp needed per driver to level up.
