Need to dump some money. If you haven't done it. Do a chassis and engine rebuild on your race cars first then street. 1 million for total rebuild on race cars.
 
I used my 430 Scuderia... I've put the vehicle online for sharing, so if anyone wants to use it, just add me :)

LOVE racing Toscana every time, really is an under rated track :)

Toscana is fun. The scudi likes that track. Handles good with suspension and no tune on it
 
Nice, Ferrari events. Lets take my 458 out of the garage:tup:
 
A bit of a dilemma here. I have not yet done this latest sets of seasonal but I currently have 20m credit sitting idle. I have over 1,300 cars in the garage and another 27 car tickets. What do I do with all this money that I will get from these seasonals? Does anyone want me to buy them something from the new car dealership? I don't want anything in return just don't want to do the seasonals and not collect the credits. Might as well spend it on fellow gtplanet members than leave it for PD.

Anybody want any car, add me and I will give out a car each day.

Yeah, I've got the same problem. I've got heaps of all the parts, and I never end up using them. Just buy new ones as I need them. Got heaps of 430s as well, and I likely never need to sell them to get some extra cash either, not to mention the many Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbos I've got (did that for variety in car stockpiling). Hit $20M again today, and actually bought another 787B to make some room in my account. I even bought another X2010 in yet another color the other day to make some more room (and I don't even drive these). What's worse, I've got three of my B-Spec drivers sitting on $20M, so I can't even keep remote racing without effectively wasting money. I'd love to just be able to give a whole bunch of cars away too, but with that one gift a day limit that's just not on. Need that one slot for myself.


im poor :D

I've tried this lot with a 500hp 512 on SS tyres. Nowhere close. I think I managed 3rd at Rome as my best result. Swapped to my Scud with 666hp and it was time for a few wins.

I may even be tempted to give my Enzo a go after I put it away never to be used again. That car has to be, along with Veyron, the biggest disappointment (in stock form) in GT5.
 
Yay! What's a good 458 italia tune for this?
 
hey guys, what's your best time on this?
this is what i have so far. its just 620PP. a few bumps as well so there's room for improvement :)

Hey zubi77 if you really want to give away cars I'll take any of the sub 1,000,000 premium Nissan, Lexus, Subaru race cars.

My PSN is HugoStu

I'm wondering can you get the California to be convertible? In Prologue it was but the only one I've bought in GT5 when I went to race it, it had a roof on to my disappointment.

Yet when I race against them I've seen them without roofs...

Don't know if anyone has responded to your question yet... the Cali is convertible unless you put a wing on the back. When you add the rear aero the top goes on. I have two Californias for this reason. I like the look of it with the roof and i love driving the cabrio in cockpit view.

I realise it's off topic, but just a quick question: how often is a chassis/engine rebuild necessary? I know it's a must when you realise the car handles badly and so on, but i guess doing it to the car each time you finish an endurance race is a bit much?
This is what I did, and with the ZR1 RM and the Furai this is getting damn expensive (stupid bob breaks the car!! :) jk). Is the chassis still driveable after an endurance rece? And would an oil change be sufficient instead of rebuliding the engine? It's actually the reason why I've been struggling with the credits.

You dont have to rebuild all the time..my ZR1 RM hasn't been rebuilt since the 200 mile mark and now it has 3,896 miles on it. I just change the oil...
 
i really wish the 1st place bonus prizes are special paints instead. i'm not really into suits and helms :D
 
Can't say I'm too excited.

Can't please them all, but these are the best Seasonal Events in a few weeks, IMO, other than the expert ones.

my sentiment exactly. I've got all "black horses" and will surely try to drive them all in seasonals.
 
Good event! Was a lovely quick scoop of over 2 million CR with my Enzo, because I'm cheap :dopey: I daresay it would be a nice challenge for something like my SP1, but hey...I don't like losing to anyone as dreadful and unfair as the AI currently seem to be

Your wasting your credits. You bob's aren't causing any permanent damage to your cars. I've only used the chassis restore option on vehicles that I've purchased from the Used Car Lot with over 50K+ miles or so.

Now back on topic. :)

I can't wait to try La Sarte in my Scud this evening!

Ok thanks for the quick reply! I'll take that into consideration.

BTT: Don't know about the "best" seasonal, but sure is nice to take out all Ferrari road cars and try them out. However I personnally don't like the Le Mans circuit in itself that much. I would have preferred Monaco, which fits the myth of Ferrari a bit more in my opinion.
 
Just did this one with the 458 Italia... Le Mans was the toughest, I won by less than a second. It's pretty troublesome with the two Enzo Ferrari's getting to start first and second.
 
Hey guys anyone got any good setups for the new Ferrari races For the 599 or enzo let me please

gutted no new cars in OCD !!!
 
I don't know if you can in any of the other Ferraris, but I caught big air at the beginning of each lap on Toscana in an Enzo, and damaged the rear end in a hilariously unrealistic way each time, I'll try and get pics up.
 
I feel like crap....I had to cut the last chicane to win la sarthe
 
Well if your offer is still good I'd like Stock 458 just for this event. I'll add you when I get off work.

Will send to you in about 20 mins when my trading window opens
 
Is it possible in the Scuderia? Has anyone tried? I have an Enzo but despise the understeer it has. I have my 430 set up nicely, it's pretty fast. Seems like a good payout for the time invested.
Yup that's what I won them all in. You'll have to push it a bit if you're running sports tires but on racing tires they're fairly easy to win.
 
i really wish the 1st place bonus prizes are special paints instead. i'm not really into suits and helms :D
Make like a considerate lover and come second...
