Bought myself an Audi R8 01 Race Car today. A nice way to spend 4.2million credits. It was a toss up between that or a Judd CV5 Pescarolo. Got the audi. The next cycle.... Chapperal 2J turns up and i can't afford it yet again! I swear when i get 15mil stashed it will never appear.

It depends how long it's been since the car had a rebuild. My X2010 currently has 1318bhp because I've never rebuilt it in the 50,000 (possibly an exaggeration) miles my Bobs have done in it, which is over 200bhp less than it could be! As for the chassis, you may not notice the car's handling getting worse, but you will notice the post-fix difference if it's been left long enough. Sometimes you have quantifiable markers to tell you your car is going bad, for example I noticed my Ford GT Spec II Test Car couldn't take Indy flat out any more as it would understeer into the wall, I got it straightened and it was fine again.

As for it being worth it, if it doesn't annoy you and still wins races, I wouldn't bother. I only do it to freshen up the cars I like so I can drive them closer to their stock capabilities.

Well for example with cars from the UCD such as the Nissan GT-R LM and the Nissan Fair Lady LM which I've bought recently, they do decently well, but I have to wonder whether I could get the hp higher if I did an engine rebuild because quite honestly the 600-700 hp range seems rather low.

i am going to buy a bright pink and bright green LFA lexus and use the paints on the Murcielago SV :drool:

Yeah, 'passionate pink' and 'lime green' from the LFA right? LOL, those are some of the colors on my Murcielagos! But then I repainted 'lime green' with 'verde ithaca' from the Murcielago LP 640 for a more original look. :ouch:
The cost to get those custom colors on your Murcielago really is expensive huh? :banghead:

my B-spec bob bashed the back end of my #3 LFA this morning.. hit the brakes on Daytona and the Nardo behind him went square into the back of it, the rear bumper looked like someone gave it a solid uppercut cuz it had been pulled out.. :mad: i need to stop giving the B spec bobs my LFAs.. :banghead:

I also intend to collect LFAs! Good to know that I'm not the only crazy person who wastes tons of Cr. collecting the same cars. :ouch:

You got quite a bit to catch up to me, i have 6.. i bought two at the same time last week because i couldnt decide between their colors :cheers: the V10 gets addicting what can i say? I need a new color for the #3 car though.. it was originally a passionate pink that i painted premium silver for a friend.. then i repainted it the frash green because it was the only LFA paint chip i had..
 
i've been rubberbanding LTW. came home from work for lunch and stopped it doing another race. Went into the UCD and was presented with the 2J. Not really been much fussed about getting this but what with the trade restrictions it's the only way i'll be able to get it.

Got the Spyker C8 at the same time too.
 
I've heard so many people praising the CLK Touring Car. The reason why I hadn't bought it until now it beyond me, but at least I have one now.

I've also purchased the Peugeot 205 Turbo S16 (why not) and a Mustang Mach I in Grabber Yellow :D
 
Bought the Enzo, oh how loosey goosey she can get!! Need to tune it for sure!! Also bought the Audi R10, going to give it a go today, looking forward to it! Peace.
 
430 Scuderia in that Ferrari Yellow color (couldn't remember the name) and a Daihatsu Copen in Pearl White.

RPF1's for my LF-A. Black VR-G2's + Passionate Pink = not my style. Emo much?

Cool! You have some sort of addiction to LFAs man!

And by the way, I saw a CLK-LM today, costs 3.5mil but I only had 3mil. :(
I think this car is rare because I don't remember seeing it before. GOD... :ouch:

And finally, an Alfa Romeo 8C Competenzione in Rosso Alfa. I find it impossible to look at, because its too damn beautiful.

What color is that Viper GTS? I got one silver with blue stripes, still looking for the black with silver stripes. I think the color choices for the premium viper gts is rather :yuck:

You could do it like me, and don't repair the chassis at all. ;)

I used to do that but the cars feel all marshmallowy.. fix the chassis and theres a noticeable handling improvement.. and mine is also silver with blue stripes lol.. ehh save for the wedsport and DB7 none of them broke 100,000.. but i was stupid enough to buy 12 cars in 2 days and only fix one of them (the M Coupe) :dunce: i have ADD.. this will be torture
