The broken Audi R8 is the Trial reward. It's not auctionable, tunes are not accessible and liveries are not accessible. It's a htf car though with one example available via stories. If you want a second copy this would be a likely rare opportunity. I haven't heard whether this is a car that causes issues with the saves but it acts a lot like the others that used to.

I must've bought and sold two dozens of these R8's on the AH. I've still got a dozen of these in my garage. Maybe any server problems with it are just temporary.

The V8 Lightning and Schuppan started out fine too. I had shared paints for both before they had server issues. They've been fixed. So yes, temporarily broken with the assumption that PG will fix this too. I bought a spare when it was working but haven't had a reason to use it.

Re Trial:- Japan B class, circuits, have spent a few days on coming up with something to get what's needed...So far, Nope! Any ideas? Anyone?

I’d imagine we’ll see quite a few Honda Beats.

I've been trying to tune the Honda Be, can't quite get the handling right, XShadowBane's done a fair job with the new Cosmo, will keep trying 👍

No, that title belongs to me 🖕

Tuned a couple of grip tunes for circuits as my throw in the hat for worst tuner in this game since I still can't tune meta.
City: 280 278 214

Just the fact you're both clearly trying with your tunes makes you better than a downloads obsessed phony spammer.

Ever since he ran off from the forum well before it shut down he's been hiding on Reddit where he doesn't even have the balls to use his tag name, initially it was almost certainly so Saeenu didn't spot him during FH5, and the name he does choose to run with means somebody who hates people.

I mean I've never understood what he's worried about really, that place worships Stevio ffs, that's an instant indicator of how unbelievably stupid and gullible the majority of people on there must be, even the biggest idiots on our old forum weren't fooled by him, let alone reach the point of glazing the guy and giving him a nickname like Forza President🤦‍♂️

Anyway if anyone wants an alternative but still strong option try the 240SX on Streets with the bodykit and Civic engine swap + cent supercharger, I set a new PB on B Goliath last week with a Toyota Chaser, 28:35 flying lap and I think it's at around #20 on the leaderboard currently, but early game a 240SX managed a dirty 28:29 from a standing start, it'll still have no chance vs a well tuned + driven Beat though.

all jokes aside, anyone who wants to be as good a tuner as shadowsbane merely has to download forza tune (even the free version) from your favorite app store, and follow the steps to completion. I've shown TGM how to duplicate shadowsbane tunes right down to the 0-60 and top speeds being identical, the only adjustment he does is aero and it usually a simple balancing equation which isn't even that useful.

race suspension in D class is a dead giveaway. when somebody claims that non-adjustable suspension is "outside their comfort zone" it's a dead giveaway they're using the app, which recommends suspension settings for every build.

forza tune is a good calculator for certain things, but it's also lazy cynical way to pump out volume, flood the market and rack up downloads and followers. it's also useless if your build isnt good, and that's shadowsbanes biggest weakness - non competitive builds. too much pi on tires and weight reduction, never quick enough for the class it's in. now an even bigger issue in Japan with all the high speed.
