I have tried most of the S-Class races after the update and I find them all easy now.

I was one of those who was silver in S6 and S8. I never did quite make gold in these 2 events. I was OK with that, because I feel that there should always be a few events that are just plain hard to beat.

But today I beat them both easy.

S6 is kind of a joke now cause you can beat the crap out of the AI cars with no penalties. The only difficult thing is that the F40 overpowers the S3 tires so easy that throttle control has to be perfect. And TCS just kills your speed so much that you just can't use it.

S8 is even worse. I got bronze on my first lap, from a dead stop out of the pits. My second lap was gold by 9/10th of a second. That was the first time I drove the GT06 on the HSR since the update. The "beast" is a fuzzy little puppy now.

S10 is no longer a challenge. I used a Tuned Clio (which only makes 720PP) and took the lead on lap 4, with a Tuned Vette starting up front. I took second at the beginning of lap 2. Seriously. Then I had to chase down that Vette from like 8 seconds back. That would not have been possible before the update. I would not have even tried with a Tuned Vette starting in front.

Let me say that I drive with standard physics. Yes I'm sure it would be more challenging in pro mode. I am comparing apples to apples, standard physics before to standard physics after.
 
what about F40-race, S6? if you can finish that off with single try, then it indeed is easier..
 
So, are there any rewards for going all gold, that anyone is aware of?

Also, I wonder if "all gold" would require all gold in all the manufacturer specific events as well.

In any case, I'm not there yet, and am just curious if I should bother putting forth the effort.
 
I get the most Gold in the S class on standard physics so now i think thats perfect to try them in pro physics again to get gold...
 
I agree. It is way to easy now. Completed S6, S7 and S10 on 3 first try. Only had bronze before which I had spend a really long time trying to get. Of course I have become a better driver after hours and hours of on-line racing, but I haven't improved this much. I would have liked of there was a few races which really required elite skills to get gold. It is not like you miss out on part of the game if you don't have all gold. Another sad thing is also that PD can't undo this. If people got their gold, they can't take it away from them again if they were to increase the difficulty level of the S-races.

I didn't get it on the first try today but I got gold first time I had a good run. Probably 7-8 tries. Passed that Black Mask coming out of the spoon.

Spec II I tried 50+ times and only got silver.

No reason now that everybody shouldn't have all gold. Which is a bit sad.

So any of you who aren't all gold, just go back and get those gold trophies now. And they'll even pay you way more money to do it.
