Someone mentioned this in the B-spec thread and i wanted to see if this does infact happen with both A-Spec and B-Spec. If you use your super car in a beginner race will you get less XP for using the higher powered car as apposed to using a Honda Civic? Also what if i dump 50,000 dollars of mods into my Honda Civic, will that then lower the amount of XP i receive when running the same race? :nervous:
 
yeah I noticed I didn't get jack for exp when I used my Lambo Chrome Line in the B-spec Sunday Cup lol
 
This is interesting, it would be nice to know the formula (if there is one) for this......
 
I did a couple of cup races and FR challenge in the stealth SLS and still got 600+ XP for each race. I thought you got more XP for winning with a bigger margin which would of been a bit of a bug.

Ah, I've just claimed my Stealth Nissan GT-R500 and was planning on setting Bob lose in it. Think I'll park it up for the time being then after hearing that and leave him with the Civic.
 
I think it's more something to do with the kind of event you do and your level. If you're level 16 and you do a level 1 event, you will get less XP than when you did it with your level 1. I did a level 16 event with my SLR McLaren against the bunch of Golf and Beetle in the German Race in Expert mode and I still get a fair share of XP, even though I win the race by a monstrous margin!
 
I hope its not like GT4 system..i thought it sucked,with the tires being annoying..anyone know whats up yet?
 
It definitely has to do with the level you are and the level of the event you are doing.

I just dominated the Japanese 80's Festival in Professional Events with a Motul 87' Civic. I lapped two cars on Deep Forest Raceway and still got 1875 XP.

I am level 12 and I think this event is level 12 also.
 
this is good news and makes perfect sence. goes with real life, if you have the money to burn on you race car you will dominate the competition. thanks for the input!
 
it took me 2 race to get from level 15-16, i was doing the german race A which was a lvl 16 event.

i've been doing the supercar event at daytona a lot to rack up money, the amount of exp has been the same since lvl 9.
 
This is good info. So now that I have 2 drivers I can send the less experieced one to clean up all the beginner races my first driver didn't do
 
Anybody know a good way to get from 22 to 24?

Which races in the Expert and Extreme give out the most XP?
