Hello everyone
I constantly see people asking for ways to earn money quickly, but it mostly revolves around BMB grind, which is annoying and gets boring quick. In this thread, I want to list all ways of earning a lot of credits quickly without sticking to one/two events constantly because it just gets boring, so you could switch up races everyday and still earn roughly the same amount of cash per minute spent
Let's kick this off:
Race 1: Premium Sports Lounge - Blue Moon Bay
Difficulty: Easy
Car: N400 and below, preferably as light as possible
Reward: 345k per Clean Race
Time: 10-15 minutes
Says for itself, really. Obviously first choice on the mind is KTM X-Bow for this one, but, in fact, most of the N400 cars can win the event just as easy without suffering too much of the reward penalty. Ferrari F40, Ford GT40, X-Bow, Mazda RX500, Shelby Cobra: basically, anything under 1200 kilos can win the race. Just make sure your lineup has no LaFerrari in it, it will make the race much easier, trust me
Race 2: Japanese GT Championship - Lago Maggiore GP
Difficulty: Easy
Car: Gr.2
Reward: 300k per Clean Race
Time: under 18 minutes
You can keep good average speed around GP layout of Lago Maggiore, which makes it a faster track to complete despite being longer than some other options. Opposition is slow, although might get a tad aggressive from time to time, but should be easily manageable. I managed to get under 18 minutes in the worst Gr.2 car that i tried (slightly upgraded Honda NSX), so i think, in a better car, you can even push to 17 minutes. And since it is a one class race, you can get bonkers with upgrades and not worry about Handicap Bonus.
Race 3: Mercedes AMG Grand Prix - Red Bull Ring
Difficulty: Medium
Car: Obvious
Reward: 360k per Clean Race
Time: under 15 minutes
Track is short and fast, the car has tons of downforce and power, so it's easy to keep up high speed through most of the corners. The downside is the track itself: it is relatively narrow for a modern F1 car and overtaking AI racers cleanly might prove more difficult than it seems, but should be manageable after getting used to the flow.
Race 4: Group 1 Cup - Lago Maggiore GP
Difficulty: Easy
Car: preferably a hybrid LMP1, but any other Gr.1 should do the job
Reward: 330k per Clean Race
Time: under 15 minutes
Basically the same as Group 2 race, but with faster cars and less laps. Picking a hybrid LMP1 is advisable due to their superior acceleration, but in general any Gr.1 car should be quick enough to win it
Race 5: Group 1 Cup - Monza (Chicaneless)
Difficulty: Easy
Car: preferably Group C or Peugeot 908 or SRT Tomahawk Gr.1, but any other Gr.1 should do the job
Reward: 330k per Clean Race
Time: under 10 minutes
This is one of the quickest races in the game: it is on a chicaneless variation of Monza, so you carry more speed through Curva Grande. You're using Gr.1 cars, so it means high top speeds. And since it is a one class race, you can get bonkers with the upgrades. Install all the possible power upgrades to use the track to the max, reduce the weight, increase downforce and you should be good to go and tear up the opposition. If you're looking for the fastest option, go for the one of the Group C cars or Peugeot 908 or an SRT Tomahawk. These cars are immensely quick and SRT in particular can even get under 9 minutes!
Race 6: X2014 Nations Cup - Circuit de la Sarthe
Difficulty: Hard
Car: Obvious
Reward: 345k per Clean Race
Time: under 10 minutes
This race is quick, but it is very hard to win the race and get the Clean bonus at the same time: the track limits are very tight, the AI is more aggressive and competitive than in other events and the car itself proves to be a handful to some people. Still, if you want yourself a challenge...
Race 7: Nostalgic 1979 Series - Monza (Chicaneless)
Difficulty: Easy
Car: Ferrari 330 P4, Jaguar XJ13, Ford Mark IV, Shelby Cobra Daytona or Aston Martin DB3S
Reward: 240k per Clean Race
Time: slightly over 8 minutes
If you have enough credits to buy a vintage race car or got very lucky and won one in the Daily Workout/Circuit Experience, you get two more options. This is the option one. This race rewards a bit less money than the others at the first glance, but it takes less time to complete it and wins you roughly same amount of Cr./min. 330 P4, XJ13 and Mark IV can win the race stock, but i'd advise upgrading the car to cut down lap times. Daytona and DB3S require upgrades to stay competitive. I think 250 GTO can win the race with upgrades aswell, but i'm not sure, never owned the car so i can't test it out. Alfa Romeo and Renault Gordini are useless
Race 8: Nostalgic 1979 Series - Circuit de la Sarthe (Chicaneless)
Difficulty: Easy
Car: Ferrari 330 P4, Jaguar XJ13, Ford Mark IV, Shelby Cobra Daytona or Aston Martin DB3S
Reward: 240k per Clean Race
Time: under 7-8 minutes
This is the option two. Roughly the same as Monza in terms of strategy: 330/Xj13/Mark 4 can win stock (but should be upgraded to cut down lap times), Daytona and DB3S with upgrades, not sure about 250 GTO, Alfa and Gordini are useless
Race 9: La Festa Cavallino - Willow Springs Circuit (Big Willow)
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
Car: Ferrari Dino at N200
Reward: 342k per Clean Race
Time: under 11 minutes
This race can be won relatively easy with a specifically tuned Ferrari Dino: put the power at N200 max, reduce the weight to minimum, Sports Soft tyres, set up the custom gearbox so the car maxes out at roughly 250 km/h and make the suspension a bit stiffer. You can adjust the differential aswell if you feel like the car is too oversteery for you, but i personally kept the diff stock, the car is manageable enough to be driven comfortably at high speeds.
Race 10: F1500 Championship - Red Bull Ring
Difficulty: Medium
Car: Obvious
Reward: 270k per Clean Race
Time: under 11 minutes
A new addition in the 1.39 update, this race is pretty much the same as with the Mercedes F1 counterpart, except you drive less laps and you are driving the vintage F1500T. The car is smaller and (in my opinion) easier to handle than the Merc, but the car has wider turn radius and the steering itself feels slower. Reduced size also helps with finding gaps for overtaking (which is sometimes a struggle with the Merc).
Race 11: Group 1 Cup - Kyoto Driving Park - Yamagiwa + Miyabi
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Car: Any tuned Gr.1 should work
Reward: 330k per Clean Race
Time: under 10 minutes
A new addition in the 1.40 update. Track might seem long, but don't be fooled by it: the flow is quite subtle (only a few really sharp turns) and a lot of corners can be done on much higher speeds than you might imagine. And the track has enough width to not make overtake a pain in the ***. Grab a Gr.1, tune it up and you should be good to go. Easy money in little time
Race 12: Nostalgic 1979 Series - Goodwood Circuit
Difficulty: Medium
Car: Ferrari 330 P4, Jaguar XJ13 or Ford Mark IV
Reward: 240k per Clean Race
Time: under 9 minutes
New addition in update 1.41. Track is somewhat narrow and the chicane right before the start-finish line is particularly tricky. But the track has a lot of high-speed sections where you can really push it to the metal so most of the overtaking will be done there. Pick up a fast car, tune it up and tear 'em up. I did the race in 330 P4, Mk. IV and XJ13 definitely can win the race too. Didn't try the DB3S yet. Not sure about other cars, if you had a go in them - leave feedback. R8 Gordini is useless
Here we are. 12 races, in 7 of them there's a decent choice of what car can you use. You can switch up the races and/or cars in your schedule and still earn roughly the same amount of Cr. per minute. This way the races are less of a grind and more fun
Honorable Mentions
Race: MR League - Willow Springs Circuit (Big Willow)
Difficulty: Medium
Car: tuned light N200: Clio V6, Ferrari Dino etc.
Reward: 228k per Clean Race
Time: under 12 minutes
Decided to try this race out, out of curiosity. I won it in Dino, could certainly win it in Clio (if i wasn't denied the win by two Lamborghinis blocking the bloody raceline), but it was rather due to bad luck than the car not being able to make it 1st across the finish. A light N200 car with right transmission setup and on Sports Soft tyres will be capable of winning the race without much resistance. I personally tried out these two, but you can give it a go in other cars aswell
If you have any more suggestions - feel free to write and i'll add them to the list
