Guys, if you're in the passenger's seat, and we're at the top of Mt Chiliad, it helps if you didn't send a Merryweather hit squad after me. :p

Me, bt, Speedy, and Audiman are switching off race wins on Down The Drain if you're interested. :)

I had about 88k and was level 56 at the beginning of the evening. Ended up with being nearly level 65 and 335k.

Next thing I did was spend all my money on my cars...got about 15k left...

I'll be hosting (or starting as host at least) again tomorrow. :D

EDIT:
Sitting at 22/30 platinum award to get the decorated trophy.

Just got signed out of PSN during a Survival mission. Um... what?

Happened to me a couple of times yesterday. Not doing a survival, but during a mission. Totally random too.

And who is Brandofo on here? He's a Bad Sport yet still sends everyone invites.
 
Thanks to iainoflo and Dan, I'm not level 50 with a Carbonizzare. Just have the Vacca to save up for, and then...tuning everything up, I guess. That won't be so bad with the $500K from Rockstar. I'm gonna TRY to earn the money for the Vacca this weekend so that I can actually spend all 500k on upgrades.

Yeah, upgrades end up costing more than the car in some cases, especially with the $30k paint job I favour.

And good choice on the Vacca, I couldn't have suggested a better Super, but if you're going to get another Sports car, I recommend the Feltzer. Hands down it's the best Sports car in the game, so much grip and speed too. Also the price is nice. Another good (free) option is the Elegy. Can't go wrong with that one.

Yes, but you won't make any money.

You need to add one of us on here, we can do a win-by-win rotation.

More popularly known as boosting...
 
iainoflo85
Which is what he's asking for . . .

I'm not saying any different. Everyone does it, Just don't know why people don't cut to the chase and say they're looking to boost that's all. :)

I wish mission payments weren't slashed. Doing missions would be a viable option then. Instead the only way to make steady money and good RP is staging races.

I don't like the Elegy anymore 'cause EVERYONE has one. It's free, so it's easy to get. Maybe if RS decides to let people have a second garage, but even then, probably not.

The Vacca will be my last car for a while. At least until RS releases something better than what I've got. My garage will consist of:

1. Buccaneer
2. Rat-Loader
3. Carbonizzare
4. Coquette
5. Tornado
6. BF Surfer (for cruisin)
7. Dubsta
8. Sabre Turbo
9. Picador
10 Peyote currently, will be replaced by Vacca.

And for everyone who thinks the Adder is the fastest car in the game...it's not. The Coil is MUCH faster...but it's also lighter and doesn't handle as well. But it does have the lovely instant torque of an electric car....so it's insanely fast.

The Adder is usually used by people that can't drive very well either, so most things can beat an Adder.
 
I am deeply sorry for ruining anyone's races tonight. If I hit you, it was an accident. Sorry.

Also, I discovered I am quite useless at survival missions. :ouch:

Uhhh... the Tesla... is faster than... *gulp* ... a Veyron?

Did a youtube search on "GTA V coil voltic vs adder." YEP. IT'S FASTER. *Whispers* Oh my god...

I know right. Why spend 1million on a rubbish car when you can spend 150k on a really good one.

I think the big RP boost in Criminal Records comes from achieving a 'Fastest Lap'. Still a theory though.
Click to expand...

It comes from beating your own personal best. That's why some laps I don't get a big boost after the first.
 
iainoflo85
It's based on the Tesla, Coil Voltic like the Tesla coil. But it also seems to resemble the Elise.
Click to expand...

Yeah, I was thinking of that because of the name, but the fact that it looks like an Elise, bit is faster than the Adder, is making me think it's a combination of both.

Personal best for that race right?
