I'd like to be able to enter two cars into a single event, increase the chances of winning, it would be a little more interesting, and it could be a good way to get experience to new B-Spec drivers on the team.

And unrelated: is there a list of the possible names for the drivers... who has an interesting driver name so far?
 
. . .
There ARE races where you need more than one AI driver. (namely the endurance races)
Two drivers in a single event, so you have two drivers running at the same time? Maybe when we finally get actual race-size grids of around 24 to 30.
 
Yea I haven't gotten to the endurance races, but it was my impression that the drivers switch off. I was thinking more along the lines of the latter, two cars on the same track that you control. Definitely need a bigger grid size than 12 for sure :)

We can go up to 16 in multiplayer... why not 16 in single player?
 
I have B.Romano and E. Giuliani for my racers so far. I think they're cool names.

I'm not sure how many possible names there are, but considering they don't really get a first name, just find a cool last name for them.

As for entering two racers in one event, are you sure you can't? I haven't gotten to far with B-Spec so I can't say for sure, but when you enter a race, there's a helmet with a number next to it. I always thought that meant how many cars you could enter.

*EDIT* When I typed this, the other comments didn't show up yet. Apparently my thoughts about more than one racer were answered above. lol
 
For multiple driver, you have to wait for endurance races.

Once you get a driver to level 15-16 or so, you can take a level 0 driver and enter the German race on pro. You'll win easy with a 440hp M3 BMW. And the best part is you'll reach level 4 after just one win. I'm now at level 8 with 4 wins of the same race.

My names are N.Burger (I had burgers for dinner that night), G.Brooks, N.Kok and R.Waters (for you Pink Floyd fans).

I've seen, G.Day, D.Oh, A.Bigot, I.Gay, T.Wolf, K.Lang, A.Wang and so many more good ones.
 
How would you keep track of both (or more!) vehicles and when each should slow, maintain, etc? Separate button shortcuts for each? Sounds like a pain to me.

As for names, already being done.
 
@Solid Lifters

So multiple drivers AND more than one car? I knew that you could assign multiple drivers to one car, but my suggestion was more for adding a second or more actual cars on the track. So you'd have two cars to control.

Funny names btw :)

@TB

I was thinking that since we have a list of the cars/drivers in B-Spec mode, we should be able to select a driver from the list that we control, and then enter that drivers' control mode. So if we had 2 (or even more) cars on the track, we could just hop from radio sets so to speak. I think it could be cool! Especially since there are race teams that do multiple cars on the track in racing anyways. Think of the drama... assigning one of your drivers to protect the lead of the other ones! Haha

No, it's just one car. I don't think we have seperate orders for more than one car, though I can't see why not. Click on the car you want to order, and do so.

With the endurance races, you obvisouly need more than one driver since stength is something that depletes after a few laps. You'll need to pit and change drivers.
 
When can I add a 2nd racer to my team? I'm lv3 or 4 B-spec now.

PS: My driver's name is O. Oh (it's magic, you know~~):sly:
 
Extra driver slots at level 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30. On the level 23 b-spec races you have to enter 2 drivers as the races are 30 laps. A little warm up for the endurance races.
 
Multiple drivers happen before the enduros. Namely Super GT. Used 2 on all three races

You actually can switch around to other drivers like that currently. You just need to hit the camera icon and it brings up a list to switch to any driver in the race. You can't issue commands to the other drivers, but you can check their current status.
