There doesnt seem to be much incentive to do these races. So far Ive done the first 3 endurance races on B-spec and I was like :irked: when I saw 87,000 and a forgettable car as a prize.

Was it always like this? Or did it change a lot?
And are the rest going to be like this?
 
You dont get good cash rewards from enduros but you get a little more XP.

Im only doing them for completion status.

If you need cash you have to drive in circles on Indy or that other track in a-spec.
 
There's you answer... B-Spec. Why should the reward be higher if you don't have to do anything?

And also, I think PD has lowered the cash prizes back to their originals. They raised it with the 1.05 update I think.

Thanks for the :dunce: answer skylinefx...

It cant be much more for A spec. Right?
100000 (or whatever) for 2-4 hours is not enough. The dream car races give the same for 20 minutes. Thats my point.
Plus Im compring it to GT4, which (if im correct) paid very well for B and A-spec endurance.
 
I hope they will fix the balance between effort and reward.
And by that I don;t mean they should lower the prize money for non-enduro races, I mean they should make payout of those horrible boring endurance grindwork races like 100x higher.
*MAYBE* then people would actually be driving them.

The only people driving them now are people who want the 100% completion.
Or people who want to be level 40.

On GT4 i did nurburgring 24h b-spec probably 10-15 times...got the FGT every time
Because on GT4 you were actually able to sell cars

In A-Spec, you can drive Indy in Like the Wind for 12 minutes (four races, 5 laps each) and earn the same amount of money than you earn from driving a 2 hour full Indy 500 endurance race.

If you drive Like the Wind for the same time as it takes to drive the Indy 500 endurance (payout of about 280,000 credits) you will earn in excess of 2,000,000 credits.

Endurance races are not worth it for the money.

... but the XP at least for Indy500 and the higher ones.

Indy500 is earning 5215XP/min while the Extreme/Indy-grinds will not pay out more than 4603XP/min.
