Could I please borrow a 2J & R390 Road Car from someone? :)


Definitely. Hit me up on PSN ("Kwicko" there, too) and I'll get you added in the morning, since I'm about to hit the bed tonight!
 
Just done the 493PP Spa Seasonal with the R390 in the top 3,000 not bad :), thanks a lot :D
 
Top 3000 is better than my time! Glad it worked out for ya, and congrats on that. Sorry about its ugliness in that nasty Gold Chrome color, though - I painted it that way so I could find it quickly in my garage among the other R390s I've got.
 
Thanks, I see it doesn't look too bad too me haha, wish I had a R390, been trying to get one for a while :)
 
Can someone please borrow me a 2J Chapparral, so i can do the B-spec seasonal? i can´t manage to win that race. My psn-id is GTRacerPT.

Yeah, sadly it's a car that can't be gifted, but you can get one with a Level 21 ticket, apparently. If you can trade someone for one of those tickets, you can save it to a second account and keep reloading it and sending it to yourself until you get the car(s) you're after. This is known as "grinding a ticket".

Hit me up. Send me a friend request via PSN (Kwicko on there, just like here); I'm sharing the 2J, R390 road car, Audi R8, and some others.

Definitely - you're good to go.


For anyone who's not sure how the car sharing thing works, once you send a friend request through PSN and it's accepted, you go into the "Profile" area on the GTLife main page in GT5, then find your new friend's username/avatar, click on that, and you'll see what cars and/or drivers they're sharing. Click on a car, hit the "Borrow" button, and you're set up - you're in their car, ready to go racing. When you're done, you just get into another car in your (or someone else's!) garage, and you're done borrowing that car, until or unless you need it again.

Pretty slick system, really. Wish it were that way for borrowing Bobs as well. Seem you can only borrow those for "Remote Race" events. :( I was going to help a couple people out by using their Bobs in the La Sarthe event to level 'em up quite a bit, teaming them with my best guy, but sadly that doesn't work. Bummer.

Would be cool if they added the ability to share bobs in that way, in an update :)

Wouldn't it? That's kind of the way I understood it to be, but I'd never messed with it before now, and had never tried remote racing at all until last night. Remote racing is okay, but I wish we could set it up to run Bobs - ours and others - in longer events. Imagine putting 16 Bobs from a bunch of different people into cars and running the 24-hour LeMans race; everybody levels up, A LOT, and a few also win their owners a craptonne of money.
 
Yea, that would be great, would be a really quick way to level up people's bobs, sure people would like it a lot :).
 
I wonder if that's why PD don't do that - it might level up the Bobs *TOO* quickly. But the upside of that is that we'd then need to keep training new Bobs, because after a while at L40, they fall of drastically and need to be retired and replaced.
 
Yea true, although they could just cap the amount of XP they can gain a day via sharing or something like that :)
 
I'm shared this car's:

Chaparral 2J
R8 Race Car (Audi PlayStation Team ORECA) '05
Pescarolo Sport Courage C60

and some others....

Feel free to add.
 
I've got a McLaren F1 GTR if anyone wants to borrow it for the 650pp events, haven't lost a single one with it. Add 'y33haw993'.
