I just can't get gold on the ones on Indy, because it always goes too wide on the turns. All assists are off except for Auto Transmission. Anyone have got some help?
 
Practice. Keep trying. Watch the demo (if there is one). :shrug:

I've only done the first NASCAR challenge, where you gotta pass 4 cars or whatever, in half a lap, and it was insanely difficult because the Ai has a habit of pit-manuevering us if we're not careful. But I eventually got it.
 
The key is to stay as close to the inside of the track as you can, try squeezing the breaks just before you enter the turn to avoid going out to wide.
You could also try using manual transmission as you can accelerate quicker than if your using automatic as long as you shift at the right time.
 
DO NOT use the brakes you will never get gold.

for me i found the easiest way was to completely let off the throttle before you come into the corner and then apply it again to about half way, your goal is to stay as close to the inside as possible without losing speed, you need to keep a constant speed thru the corner to an eventual acceleration out to the finish.
 
I did terrible at these - especially the outside ones - until I turned off all the assists except auto. After that Daytona came easy and Indy after a little practice in brake/throttle balance just as you get to the curve. Using a wheel helps big time on these.
 
All you need to do is make sure you have ASM off or if it is locked turn off ABS.

Lift on the throttle just a tiny bit as you get to the corner and then apply as much throttle as you can without hitting the wall. It really is not that hard but if you enter the corner to fast you will struggle.
 
Daytona its was more difficult to me, that Indy

but doing gold was easy after a litlle of pratice
