Still enjoying going through event directory.. Went from 41 to 51%.. Gives me OG GT vibes while waiting for Ferrari P4 for platinum trophy. Finished Gr4 BoP races today, tuned '90 RX7, mounted big turbo on Silvia for Silvia sisters Tokyo race.. Got 500k from daily marathon ticket :)
 
I tried to build an Autobianchi to match the car in Race A.

It can't be done. The only way to get the HP to 197 is to add a turbo, but the Race A versions are N/A. Also, the PP value is for the stock car, so I don't know what I am shooting for outside of weight and power.

It bugs me that we keep seeing hints at a "race car" conversion, but we (players) don't have full access to it.
 
I'm trying to figure a strategy for the World Touring 700 race at the Dragon Tail (reverse). It will probably be crush them within four laps, gas be damned, refuel (no tire change) and do it again for the last four laps, because fuel saving didn't work the first time, as the leaders never stopped.

What car are you using? I think I used the Mazda 787B
 
ye, it's all about the car.. I used detuned XJ13 Jaguar... @Nacho Libre find some Le Mans car and detune it
Thank you all for your suggestions. As I theorized, I had to catch the leaders within a reasonable number of laps, fuel be damned, so I used one of my rally cars, the Ford Focus Gr.B with hard racing tires. I did pit right after the leader on the 6th lap and exited in 3rd place, so it was just a matter of catching the 2nd place and wait for the new leader to pit, upon which I coasted to a comfortable win with a 16 second margin. I used fuel map 2 throughout.

So, I got 115,000 credits (If I had been more patient I could have got the clean race bonus), I covered the daily mileage for a 4-star roulette ticket, which got me a crummy 10,000 cr, and the 6-star roulette prize ticket which earned me the Porsche 918 Spyder (!) which raised my collector level to 33 (!!).

Smashed my head against the one and only S-10 trying to get gold today, for over 200 miles, and I only cut my record time by 1/10th of a second. Which is still 1.5 seconds over gold time. I might have to turn ghosts off just so I can concentrate on smoothly executing corners and learning when to coast. I still haven't figured out how to get through Eau Rouge/Radillion without coasting through most of it. I've been using TCS 5, maybe I can bump it down to 4 for some extra corner speed.

Does it help to learn manual transmission for this one? I'm using AT.

It is kind of a process but yes, I would definitely say that you will get faster with manual transmission. Try starting with a slow and old car with 4 gears on a ”easy” track with relatively few gear changes. After a while it will feel natural to shift gears by yourself, and you will get faster eventually.

And try to lower TCS to 2 (or lower) if you can, that will also help!
