I would presume that you are using super soft tires which will go away almost immediately.  Try using slick or racing slick tires it takes a lap or two to warm them up, but they are good for between 7-10 laps of hard driving. More if you are a better driver.
 
I have a Japanese version of the game and I cant read sh** on the Tune Shop, so I went to see and bought the 3rd tires the most expensive ones....can someoen post a translation of the TIRE SHOP?

like there is this:

1 - 2 - 3 - 4

then u click 3 for exapmple and ther eris this line

plz post what the ****
that means lol and what what tires are good for - thank u!
 
X,

I might suggest to mellow out on skidding around every corner, and locking up the brakes while you slide sideways to get lined up for the next line.

Less skidding sounds = longer tire life.  :)

Not dumb  just got used to no tire wear on GT2.  :smile:
 
Also mine is in Japanese and Im canadian lol, how the ****

dont spoil yourself with things you dont need and will only make it harder when you're playing something that requires skill. swiss alps, cote'd azur and a couple more are the only ones that give me a challenge so if your car is was faster than the others you should win.
 
By normal do you mean medium I got those and went 4 and a half laps of the apricot and the front left became RED :( I suck at this game lol.

any other tips?

    X if you run into a problem like that try setting the car up with different tires front and rear. In the case of that race you might want to try putting on front tires one step harder to compensate for the wear pattern. That way by the time they get warmed up good, they should be all the same color within a couple of laps and you should be able to handle better and run a few more laps before pitting.
 
awesome thanks, also im so stupid I found this in the IGN guide shesh!

X, you idiot, you gotta use Super Slick tires for long/medium races. Medium tires usually last me about 5-7 laps, depending which level it is. Superslicks however last me much longer. :)

Man, you are so dumb. ;)

(Just kidding with him, I know him)
