Something you should know about the horsepower!!!: Some racers and I have recently noticed a little issue with the hp. For example: If you tune your car up to 591hp, then when you enter the time trial, the hp will show up with a bit higher amount of power. Do not worry about what the time trial says about the hp, just worry about the hp when you are in the tune shop.

Why is GMT important?

GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the center of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.

Good Luck to everyone, and have fun!

The picture is just an example of the original track. But the given track, is the track to race on.

 

[MadMax]

Submitted with splits:

T1 34.084
T2 59.313

Stage 1 NA tuning + Sports ROM + Racing Muffler +
Engine balancing + Port Polish
28km / ~17,6 miles = 495hp

I drove total 554,1 km / ~349 miles and used 4 cars while at it , checking that I don't exeed 500hp.
When the settings menu showed 501hp I bough a new car.

My advice to all those still running this:

Buy Stage 1 NA tune upgrade and all the other power upgrades (exept oil change)
You've propably heard the saying that "the cheapest is not allways the best choise"


Oh right , I uploaded my last week's replay:

MadMax86. Am I correct in you saying you drove 558 km for this week's race? I did 15 laps in the Merc at 495hp.

Yes , 554,1 km to be presize.
I found the combo very addictive and the SSR5 is one of my favourite tracks if not the favourite.
