Well, it's good to have another even with Silver keys up for grabs. Did a few races, hit 50 keys, and then bought my second Silver crate. And...
Oh god darn it.
Maybe I should rename these "Ford Crates" given the fact that's all I got from them in terms of cars...
What should I do with this? It's a 1-star rarity car, but I already poured so much (virtual) dough on my M235i that I don't think this will do much better after a few upgrades...

@Niku Driver HC Might as well keep what you gain from crates, perhaps it may become useful in a future event which requires a specific car.

Well there was a Focus RS event...
...a while back when I first got the game, that is. It might take a while before that happens again...

I just went over $2m killing time waiting for my Mercedes fusion parts.

I know all about freemium, I work in the games industry (and even know quite a few people at Natural Motion funnily enough!) and have worked on a freemium title quite recently.
Regardless of how much money the game makes, getting such a small amount of credits for selling dupes isn't good. I don't have any research on this to hand but I imagine players would be more likely to spend real money on further crates if they don't feel like they've been done over each time they get a duplicate car. It's certainly put me off from spending anything on them!

When it comes to duplicate cars, I just break them apart for parts instead of selling. Not only does that get me parts for a car that I might have, it's also more profitable than selling a car for only $650 worth of profit...
Speaking of cars from boxes, the Silver Box reached a new high for me today, after finishing off the Silver Key Cup and having over 90 Silver Keys in my hands;
(I guess I shall make this my trademark car picture angle, it's the only one I use, haha!)
Oh f:censored:k yes. Daddy's got a Gullwing, and it's a 4-star one...!
And now both Tier 3 and 4 already have cars for them, didn't even need to go to the dealership.

If it was something besides a flippin' Cooper, I would have done that.
Edit: Who is this Christian I just added to the Crew?

*looks at GT's signature, then looks at TB's last sentence in his latest post*
I sense a strange hint of irony here... 💡

Well fair enough, but you could just break it apart for parts... Then you could sell those for more dough, I dunno. Economics!

You're definitely NOT, I repeat, NOT go by that + thingy. At best, go by the dyno tests where you can set said thingy, amongst other thingys such as nitrous settings and whanot. As I've learned from other players in our selective crew, setting a car up for a 1/2 race will invariably mean that you will get a -xx rating.
Why is it in the game? I dunno, perhaps it's only for 1/4-mile races, because it sure as hell doesn't work for 1/2 ones...

I've been struggling with these too, I don't go by the performance indicator numbers I go by the dyno results instead. My setups for the fastest 1/2 mile are always the fastest for the 1/4 mile too and I just keep getting beat in the 1/2 mile events. Adjusting anything to try and make it faster just makes it worse!
