Easiest way to get an x1.

to add to the frenzy, my gf has never been this mad at me, ever.

over anything.

i dont go out, i eat pizza, drink beer and gt5 every night.

she hates this game more than anything....BUT SHE LOVES FORZA 3!!!!! (seriously, she loves playing that game)
 
the xbox controller fits in my hand better, gives me less hand fatigue (which is why ive been digging b-spec so much lately)

but ps3 is the better system
 
xbox is comfier for endurance gaming.. hence why you have all the sad acts on xbox :) PS3 is what you could class as the "Cool" system lol :P
 
Not meaning to go off topic but you guys know you can get a converter to use the xbox controller on the ps3. It's called crossfire I think. Google will help ya find it.

Anyways have you guys beaten the SV with a ds3?
 
Thereby I'd suggest powerlvling to lvl 35 instead. Personal schedule:

1. Reach the 9 hour endurancerace, leave it on overnight.
2. Wake up, start a new 9 hour endurance, go to work.
3. Get home, start a 4 hour endurance, do IRL stuff.
4. Repeat from point 1.

*holds PS3* .....but that will kill my ps3!:nervous:

I done it with my pad :) and then tried the DS3 :P

Also.. why on earth would you want to ruin a playstation like that? :(
 
I just woke up with an X1 in the delivery truck today. I tried doing the lvl 30 Vettel challenge and was like "uhh yea right..this will take a while to get used to in order to just get bronze". So after a few tries at each stage I said screw it. I was wasting time that Bob could be grinding on. So I threw him back into his endurance races and 2 days later Bspec is lvl 35. So before I left to work, I thought it would be funny to let the Bobs break in the silly X1 at the 24hr Le Mans. I think I will be stuck with a huge engine overhaul bill after they are done. 2m25s per lap, 270mph down the straights on the full Le Sarth for 24 hours..... that's a lot of miles! I'll be sure to check the odometer after they are done lol.

The engine overhaul bill limit is 500K Cr.. My FGT needs one because I have been having Bob do a lot of grinding.

The bulky Xbox 360 controller makes my hands hurt after a while. I can play with a PS3 controller for a long time without it making my hands hurt.

"Wasting time" driving the X1?? Why are you grinding XP in B-spec if not to get to drive the X1?

For me the career stops at Level 24 A-spec (monotonous driving for hours is not appealing) and Level 30 B-spec (hellooooooo Vettel Challenge and X1!). :)

The X1 is no fun. It's just a fictional car. It defies physics (including game physics). When drive it, it's just retarded fast on rails and extremely hard to lose control of. When you get used to the speed and handling of the X1, you tend to forget how to drive the regular cars and have to relearn them. Even the F1 cars seem extremely different after hopping out of the X1. It just seems too obviously fake to drive around all the time. I will probably use it to lessen the time I have to suffer on Aspec endurance though. To me, the X1 was overrated before I ever even heard of it.

I let Bspec grind when I am not playing which is just about most the time. Might as well get all my Bspec trophies (2 to go) and be done with it. My Aspec is at level 30, so basically I ran out of things to do in the game besides endurance races. Online races are still a bit silly and rather random. Half the lounges are Honda drag races (omg ricers) or "beat my (insert car here)". I go online from time to time to maybe join a drift lounge to practice controlled slides with the G27 (still need a lot of work to catch up to my DS3 drift skills).
 
So if you win the one in Aspec and are gifted one in Bspec, what do you do with 2 of them? Can you sell one? That is kinda dumb. You should win an F1 car or something else for Bspec 35.

I see your point if you're serious about realistic racing. With this game I mainly want to learn the fastest way around a track in solo time trials, with a variety of cars. I even bought the book Going Faster! to learn the physics. But I'll probably spend most of my time in F1 and X1 cars 'cause I'm addicted to speed. :)
 
Guys after Monza what is the easiest challenge to try?
 
I wouldn't say easiest, as they're both quite tough. But I found Suzuka a little easier.

Ah ok thanks.

I got Gold on Monza after about an hour, I was suprised how much exp it gives you. I got from mid 28 to mid 31 just from that event.
