When you do the first endurance race (Grand Valley 300) you get 250,000+ EP (according to the awesome GT5 Matrix) while doing the Dream Car Indy Race you get 32,000+. This means you would have to do the Indy car race 8 times to equal the Grand Valley, but the endurance race is a LOT longer to do, of course.

So which would you do? A longer race with more points or several shorter ones with less? The endurance ties up your machine longer, but it's also a BUNCH of points...
 
Is there any reason to race same stuff twice?

anyway, I would pick endurance, you can just set it up and relax for few hours.

Usually at night if I'm watching TV I'll let Bob run the HSR Turbo Challenge in a fully tuned GT-R. No supervision required and takes about 12-13 minutes so I check in to restart the race every time a commercial comes on. That way, if I get the urge to use the PS3 for something else I don't have to interrupt an endurance. 👍

haven't done much b-spec have ya. You HAVE to race the same tacks many times to advance. how else do you expect to make the jump from 35-40 when there are no races between.....

OP, I generally do the enduro because it offers more experience, but if your grinding for cash the Indy track will net the most credits in the shortest time.
 
While babysitting my son, I order Bob to do some racing in B-spec extreme series: "Dream car Championship". Five races, about 30 000XP and 86 000Cr each + 430 000Cr for winning the championship. Each race takes about 15-20 minutes, depending on your car.

Just finished Grand Valley and got 99,000 XP. :P What a waste of time. Maybe if I'm leaving the house, but not to sit here and wait...

I sent some bobs on the 9hr Tsukuba while I went to work last week. Gives 'em something to do while I'm out.
 
I've hit Level 40 in B-Spec, so for me it's all about grinding for credits at this point. I'll usually do either the Dream Car Championship or the Polyphony Digital Cup if I've semi-actively working B-Spec. Every so often, I'll do one of the first few Endurance races to give my Bobs a little variety. (It depends on how much time I have to go at it and the mood I'm in.) While I sleep and while I'm at work, I'll set one of the Endurance races to go, but not one of the 24-hour races... Good luck!

I too have urges to use my PS3 when Bob is doing an endurance race, it just boils up when he is halfway :D

Anyway I let Bob do the enduro's when I'm not home and let him grind Dream car La Sarthe or the whole championship in the x1. That is when I'm not driving myself :)
 
I rarely B-Spec grind offline now. All week long I set my drivers to online, so they can earn money and experience via remote races. The only time they actually do any B-Spec racing offlne is on Tuesdays, since I have a 9am to 9pm college day so I use the chance to run a 24h race. By this time tomorrow I should be level 39 B-Spec, then 2 or 3 more Tuesday's later I'll be level 40 B-Spec. :)
