After countless hours of watching him race, I realised why I had trouble getting around corners with high powered cars, because I always went full-throttle. It may sound stupid, but my Bobs taught me I can't always go pedal-down around every single corner.
 
taught me never to lend my car to anyone, even "race car drivers" lol i find most times he doesn't push as hard as I do, yet I race clean and place first while he ends up in 6th
 
ZDUPH, yeah me too. Its taking me a long time to not hammer the gas on exiting a corner. I don't use a wheel, so I guess its easier to feather the gas with one. Dunno.
 
Bob taught me that virtural murder isn't as fun, nor as satisfying as the real thing.

...waitaminute...

Seriously, b-spec has taught me infinite patience... well, b-spec and my 3 yo daughter.
 
Yes it showed me an easy way to get cash and cars with very little effort. 👍

👍👍👍👍👍

(gotta love throwing one of my bobs into a x2010, setting them loose on the 'dream car championship', and for nothing more than an few dozen button clicks and the electricity needed to power my ps3 for about 1.25 hours i get just over 1 million credits!)

well, besides that, just watching the races (when i'm bored) has helped familiarize myself a little better with the tracks - for when i get back to doing the driving myself!
 
One word... Nothing.

Colossal waste of my time.

Would rather A and B spec be intertwined with 10 times as many races! Would only be useful for doing endurance with me.
 
Yes...

Never underestimate the stupidity of the developers....
 
yes...they taught me that maximum horsepower does not always equal a win!
 
After the many complaints about the late-night expletives eminating from my house, I learned that my walls are actually thinner than I imagined.
 
Yes, watching B-spec is a little educational about passing zones. A-spec drivers (us) will tend to pass just about anywhere on a track, but B-spec drivers follow a more conventional and realistic pattern for passing. On some tracks, finding out where Bob will pass and won't pass has shown me some passing zones I might have missed, and some spots where it's really not good to pass.

For real??? I don't mean to sound like an ass but it took your bob to teach you this?
 
B-Spec has taught me that I can 'have my cake and eat it too!':sly:👍

*sets up Bob on the PS3 with massively overpowered car *
*goes off to more productive endeavours*
*returns to collect paycheck and prize car*
*rinses and repeats*

That, and showing off a perfect example of great worker-manager relations! Capitalism would love B-Spec since the owners of the means of production (us) put in no effort, forcing Bob (the worker) to drive long hours for no pay, while we collect 100% profit and glory!👍💡👍💡👍

👍 What he said!! My Bobs havent stopped for 4 days. And theres the patience thing, and anger management! Good stuff
 
He has taught me to drive cleanly and have patience. When i first started with the game i just bumped my way though the field to find my self first after half a lap. Sadly i have first realized how much more fun it is, to drive cleanly and only overtake when it is possible to do so without touching, after i have completed every race except the last three endurance races.
I have also learned that shouting at the TV wont make him stop making mistakes, but that has more to do with my temper then anything else i suppose.

Same here. I've learnt a lot by letting Bob out in a car, then watching from bumper view.
 
Yeh B-spec can drive f1 cars better than me, maybe because I still use a control pad.
I think the time has come to get a steering wheel, not just for f1 cars but also because the X1 is just too hard to steer with the control sticks, hence I have yet to get anywhere with the Vettel challenge.
 
It taught me if you put him in a 230hp 945kg car when he is a level 13, he will lose when the Clubman cup.

However my tired level 29 Bob will win the same series.
