Do I need more than one FGT?

[RacerX1]

So I'm using my FGT to Grind the B-Spec Enduro's until I get to level 40. I think it's got around 15K miles on it so far. Once I'm done will it still drive pretty much the same as when it was new once I do the Body and Engine restores or should I buy another one for A-Spec racing. I still haven't finished the Forumula GT A-Spec races. Waiting till I get a steering wheel for that one.

I'd say having two won't hurt. One for B-Spec grinding to level 35, the other fully broken in for A-Spec FGT/online anytime.
Once you've reached level 35 B-Spec (not A-Spec), you get an S.Vettel X1. That'll be your grinding machine for 10,000 miles.

What would be the point in grinding the timed Endos with a x2010? FGT EASILY wins every endo...and it isn't like using a x2010 to grind the 24h Lemans makes 24 hours go by any faster...

If you have been using an FGT to grind Bspec (like I did) just continue using it so save un needed miles on other cars. Using a x2010 is pretty pointless for Bspec timed endos in any instance.

 

[RacerX1]

Yeah I think I'll keep low mileage on the X1 when I get it. The FGT already has the miles on it so might as well finish up b-spec with it. I just wasnt sure how well the FGT would drive and handle after that many miles.

 

[defaultoasis]

I'm sorry, but you misundertood what I meant; I meant the X2010 could last around 10,000 miles, not to purposefully use it to enter an 10,000 mile-enduro which doesn't exist.

 

[RacerX1]

The FGT in the OCD right now is white and looks sweet so I'll probably end up buying it anyway. lol

 

[defaultoasis]

Using X1 to grind is just more efficient, if you don't wanna be efficient, that's not grinding, that's enjoying your game. And when talking about grinding, generally it means Dream Car Series or Like the Wind Indy.

 

[freedomweasel]

No you don't need more than one. However there are a few cool liveries, so if the Renault or Lotus one show up I'll probably grab a second one.

 

[Griever]

The X1 is still useful in 24hrs, as you can reach the 'max-laps-the-AI-will-run-in-24-hours' a lot faster.
Which means you can go to bed sooner...
The race itself doesn't finish sooner, but the part you HAVE to drive does.

(at least that's what I've picked up from reading here, I didn't even have the X1 yet and didn't even start any endo's yet)

 

[veryferry]

Yeah, you MUST have all different colored FGT's for obvious reasons

 

[Jorsne]

I got one word: LOL!
1: You dont need several examples of the same car unless you are a colector that want different colors.
2: As far as I know and most other know a engine restore (perhaps a body restore too) will get your car in tip top shape once again.
3: I got 80'000 km (don't know how many miles that is, because in Europe we are a bit more intelligent and use more practical measurements instead of miles and inches) on my X2010 and I can't feel it have gotten any worse after a enigne and body restore.
4: It isn't called X1 but X2010, when are people going to understand that?
5: And saying a X2010 can be your grinding machine for 10k miles is WRONG, it can be your grinding machine for ever if PD don't create some kind of patch in the future. Seriously there are cars in the UCD that got 300'000-400'000 kilometers and still goes forward when you press 'X', it's even a trophy to purchase one.

I agree with everything but this: "because in Europe we are a bit more intelligent and use more practical measurements instead of miles and inches" I will even agree that it might be more practical. But surely you do not think living in a country that uses the metric system makes you more intelligent than some one else? I lol to that.

The what or the what? When do these show up and where??? lotus...

I have a Formula GT with 26K on it and it has unrecoverable lost HP. Its at 928 with a fresh engine rebuild. (suppose to be 935 hp)

My advice get two one for Bob one for yourself! 👍

 

[chelski4life]

ive used my x1 for way more than 10k miles lol

Thank you. This is the type of information I was looking for. 👍

No problem you will need every last bit of HP to complete that championship!

 

[Jorsne]

Not in a-spec. Mine got 24km and I did it with only oil change with a DS3. In b-spec I took a rebuild and beat the whole thing easly with a tuning guide.

x2

Plus we do use the metric system here. Depends on what profession your in.

also dito on the whole mileage thing with your FGT, cant remember what mine has but I cant seem to get over 870 hp with it. Sounds like I need a rebuild. Not sure how much is not recoverable.

 

[defaultoasis]

I don't see a point to argue but...
1. I'm not European. I had to speak English here. 要不然我早他妈骂你丫了傻逼
2. I typed X1 to save 1 sec time. Now the time's wasted. Not a big one though.
3. You lose horsepower, though slightly, when you do engine rebuild after a certain number of miles. On X2010, yes 2010, Red Bull X2010 or Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel or Red Bull X2010 Carbon Prototype, they had the loss to appear on about 10,000 miles.
4. I sort of feel that you are probably more intelligent to me as possibly every single bit of my post that could remotely cause any confusion is mentioned in your list. Well done man.
5. To match up the number.

Arrogant, pompous, self-absorbed Eurojerk. The answer is 49,709.82 miles. If you weren't so full of yourself and so busy being such a pseudo-nimrodl, you may have wanted to pay more attention in basic mathematics during your schooling so you didn't appear to be so stupid today.

Wow.

You made the comment to use the X1 (X2010 for those who cry like girls about it), after level 35 Bspec (NOT Aspec as you distinguished). At which point it was said there is NO POINT in using the X1 (X2010 for crybabies) for Bspec races that are timed (so all the long ones).

Now if we are talking Aspec from the get go, you would be correct. But we weren't. We were talking Bspec when you steered the conversation that way by telling the OP to use a X1 after level 35 Bspec.

 

[v-fal]

There's another solution : If you don't want to spend 5M Cr. to buy another one just to do the FGT Championship, I'm sure you could borrow one from a friend (via the share option).

 

[defaultoasis]

Maybe I was not very clear there. I'm sorry. (Not A Spec) means you don't get a X1 for getting Level 35 in A Spec. You with me?

And what I meant was quite simple and it was how I dealt with the situation: Since you cannot trade to get X1 now, having two FGTs wouldn't hurt, you can use one of them for your Bob to get to level 35 as soon as possible whilst getting a lot of money quicker than using other cars during when you are stuck on a level which you have completed all its competition (say after level 24 you need a while to get to level 25), and the other for yourself to be competitive in the FGT A Spec event or online races that allow FGTs.
And getting to Level 35 with the one FGT for Bob now, you can use the X1 S. Vettel it rewards you to replace the FGT Bob previously use to grind even quicker. I think that's not that invalid?? Seeing all you coming to that makes me feel quite unconfident about what I said now.

edit:1 million is some money, personally I wouldn't spend an hour in the game for an engine rebuild & body rigidity restoring.

And the "no point" argument wasn't made by me. In fact, there's much point in timed endurances to use an X1 as you can park before the end of the lap for a long time before time up & do other things & come back, throttle, win.

You forgot to mention how humble you are.

 

[HOODFIELD]

Not in a-spec. Mine got 24km and I did it with only oil change with a DS3. In b-spec I took a rebuild and beat the whole thing easly with a tuning guide.

For me it was a tough race, if it weren't for the rain it would have been easier, but for me it was tough. I rebuilt the engine 4+ times, it lost hp, this I am sure of!
When I said "you need every last bit of HP" I was metaphorically speaking that the race was difficult. Skill comes more into play the HP in this series.
