Hey guys i bought this game yesterday. And i find it uneasy to win races with a stock car, For example ill use the YARIS race, in Beginner Series races. A stock 99 VITZ will not win this race regardless of how good you are. The car cost me 7.5k used, I dumped 20k into it. payout for winning gold....4.5k 7.5-20= -12.5 Now Im pondering to myself how will i ever make money in the long run with this game. And plus it puts a burden on my conscious when i throw a stage 2 turbo in my cheesy Soccer mom Yaris to win this pathetic race. And so, i result in playing these wacked out Special Event Races to win good money. Might as well race the Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile around just to win a quick buck just to dump it in a stupid Yaris.... Also, the sound is horrible, no damage effects. As far as this being a simulator it sucks and it sucks bad. All in all the game is pretty fun and easy, until you realize your actually loosing more money then what you win. Can you recommend a better way to make money in GT5?
