I've done Beginner, Amateur and Professional series in A-Spec all with gold. Expert series also should be ok, but GT All Stars cup is impossible to win with a street car. I tried ZR1 (No aero/No RM) with almost 900HP, and there is no way to do something serious, it is unbelievable hard. I won PD cup easily with 750hp gallardo, but GT All Stars is pain in the ass.

I saw that somebody mentioned Furai that I can get as price in B-Spec, should I go for it or that is not car for this challenge?

GT All Stars has tougher competition, getting you ready for the Extreme series.

1. The Vette with RM and full tuning will win easily (you have to race mod to lose the weight, otherwise it's an overpowered brick [like the worthless Veyron]).

2. Fully tuned Furai will win it, too. Or get the 07 GT-R fully tuned, another easy winner. You're gonna have to spend money to win, and honestly you'll need the RM Vette later--it wins the Like The Wind event and gets you the Toyota Minolta race car, which is HUGE. Vette costs $685K total, assuming you're level 21.

Good luck.

I'll have to give this tune a try. I really like the way the ZR1 looks without an aero package (which is why I own two ZR1s and will mostlikely purchase a third and leave it completely stock [with the exception of wheels and weight reduction]).

Try painting it chrome and use spoked racing wheels painted gold or red or blue. Bad azz looking!

Everybody seems to say the Ram is far and away the best truck, and the time trial leaderboards seemed to back this up.

The Premium '69 Camaro Z28 is a gift from the gods, even more so once race modded.

^5 on the Z28. One word of caution--RM it BEFORE fully tuning, otherwise you end up with like 344hp max. Lol. So I have 2, one fast, one gathering dust.

I'm level 20 now. I thought to keep Vette without RM cause it look much nicear, but seems that that is imposibile.

I've won that race. Not fully tuned, not RM, it was pretty ok. ;)


Thanks for tips, I'll try GT all star with ZR1 RM than :)
 
One more question. Does I need C63AMG for some of events, challenges, races? I really love this car, but I do not have enough money to spend for cars that I love if I am not gonna need it.

You'll win the C63 in one of the AMG challenges.

It's not a required car for any race or series, and I don't think it will win the Schwarzwald B in the extreme series any way (limited to German cars and the Lexus LFA racing concept--won in the B Spec 4 hr Nurburgring). Use that or drop $200K for the SLS and tune it up.

Good luck!

The C63 will win the event just tune it fully mind though it has major oversteer
 
Will I really need Vette with RM later or Furai can change her in every race I'm gonna need in Extreme series? It's not about money, but I hate how RM looks. If is necessary than I will upgrade it to RM...
 
Classic muscle cars? Either the Challenger or the Camaro, they both take a race mod, are both premium, and both rock in pretty much equal measure.

What unbelievable crazy car is this C63AMG... I won Schwarzwald League A so easily with almost not tuned car. Now I won League B(Cape Ring) even easier with fully tuned car (no aero/no setup doned (just lowered cause of styling)). It's awesome car and really fun to drive with ALOT of tyresmoke! :D
 
DAMN!!! I will never play GT5 :( I've never been nervious like this. All Stars challenge is not hard. It's incredibly HARD. I was 1st on first race, second two I was second, fourth race I was third and last I've crashed cause I'm already been nervious and lose every chance to win gold. So with ZR1RM fully tuned end setuped you have to be badass driver with DS3 or to have abnormal luck wich is imposible. They just have much more fastest and better cars, so ZR1RM can't do the job. I'm sorry, but what's yours next suggestion :( I can won gold with some more practice and concentration, but that's not easily...

Goodness gracious! Don't get so wound up. Some people might have trouble with that awesome car because it's a FR drivetrain. Ok, fully tune your Furai and do it. 4WD should be easier to control at your level.

Practice some more so you can win the series with the zr1 rm, or you can save 4 million credits and buy a peoguot 908.
 
Yup, I calmed down. Won LTW with ZR1 and I need better concetration for all stars challenge. Problem is not in FR, I'm best with fr's better than 4wds, but AI is just faster. Simple as that. I won Furai as prize in B-spec, I'm using settings bellow and oversteerin' kills me. any suggestions for setup or to continue practice with these ones.

Aerodynamics: 32 / 54
Initial Torque: -- / 16
Acceleration Sensitivity: -- / 32
Braking Sensitivity: -- / 18
Ride Height: -2 / -4
Spring Rate: 16.2 / 17.1

Set aero max back and front, set spring rates 10 or 11 each. Use skid force recovery.

Thanks alot mate. I've done same track as yesterday with old settings almost 4s faster now. 👍👍👍

What do yo suggest for historic racing cup in expert series? I've tried with almost fully tuned countach lp400, but I don't know. Maybe with some better concentration I could do something, but I still think that that is bad car for this race.

edit: Also, which next serious car I have to buy after furai fully tuned? It's just great car, and now when I done historic cup I'll have all golds in A-spec in all series except extreme. (I've done first two challenges, LTW and Swarzchwald league b both with gold).

Thanks for info mate. After some reading, I've decided that my next car after furai should be peugeot 908. I'm saving money now for it ;) No more time for wasting cash :) 👍
 
Keep on racing and get a "Formula Grand Turismo" for 4Mil. from the UCD when it shows up. You'll need it for the "extreme" series anyway. I think you need to be level 23 or so for this car. It's an open wheeler like an F1 or CART and is 900 Hp. @ 550Kg. An F1 car like the Ferrari 2007 can only be used on-line in special events, arcade or time trial and it's 12.5 Mil. Buy it when you max out on points (20mil.) and you can't think of what else to buy.. it is fun. You'll get to use an X1 (gift) against Seb. Vettel in time trials for credits, when you reach level 30 in A-spec.
 
hey guys,

I got Peugeot 908HDi already today..so which car i would like to buy other one? I thought maybe Citroen Concept '09 (2million credit) and I like Camaro 69' will be on racing modification and how much it that RM on Camaro '69? or any car you give me a name car and which best for me to enjoy?

Thank you,

Martyn

You'll need a ton of money if you want to fight for that or an online friend with a competent car. If you don't have online, then that's gonna have to take a back seat I'm afraid...although I have lots of different cars that can win it. Also the Lambo Countach has been proven to be able to win, but you will require some superb defensive skills against the other cars. I personally haven't tried that method myself...I just used the Toyota 7 and stormed the cup.

You'll need a NASCAR, a DTM (IS-F Racing Concept! :D or something else that can do it but it'll be hard to find something like it) a fast Japanese car and of course the FGT. Also you may want another American car once you get to the American Championship if you can't win it in the NASCAR (but you can win it in the NASCAR if I can :lol: ).
