So I was online last night and I found a race that title was YOU WIN = FREE F1 or X1. I asked the host if the title was still true and he answered me back,"Actually if you win, you have a choice of an Formula Gran Turismo, Ferrari F1, Red Bull X1, or Suzuki Escudo + 5 chrome paint chips". So here was the challenge to get the prize: 1 lap at Nuburgring 24h, heavy mechanical damage (i think also heavy penalties), 690hp or less, 1500 kg or more, No TCS, stability or skid recovery.

For the 1st race I couldn't find a suitable car in my favorites, i picked the Trans Cammer from the recommended. That didn't work due to the fact that it only has around 620 hp and i forgot to put racing softs on it. Shortly after the start of the race i got left in the dust, so i backed out and looked more carefully at my favorites. I found my C63 which has a little over 670 hp, racing hards, and height adjustable sport suspension. I used this car on my 2nd try at it but this car is to skiddish to do anything good. shortly into the race i spun and badly damaged the car but everybody backed out but the host so i finished the race to get the money.

I backed out of the server and decdied if i was going to win i would have to build a car to specifically do the race. so i grabbed the Lambo 670 SV and went to to work. I painted matte light silver and changed the wheels plus painted them matte gray. To put it near the power limit, I put on the titanium racing exhaust and a sport cat . That put the hp at 687 just under the limit. to address the weight i put a body colour carbon hood and window weight reduction. that put the weight at 1550kg just above the limit. To help the car handle better i put on racing softs and fully customizable suspension. the only tuning i did to the car was put the ride height front and rear the lowest it could go. I went into the server again and tested it in free run. the car seemed fast and easy to drive, so i figured i had a shot.

The race, there was 6 cars and i started mid pack. In the GP part of the course i got off to an ok start i managed 3rd out of the first turn but had dropped to 4th by the time we hit the start of the Nordschilefe because a C63 passed me. My luck changed when at the bottom of the first hill where it narrows the leading Lemans Quattro spun and collected the host( in a chrome Mustang Cobra R) and the C63. i managed to slip through untouched but on the 2nd hill disaster struck. i got to the top of the hill and entered the curved straight that follows but the car slid and caught the grass. that messed up 3 of the wheels. The Lemans quattro got past me but i got going again and chased him down. i was able to stay somewhat close to him being that his car was also damaged form the accident i described before. In section 3 of the Nordscliefe he spun and i was able to get by him and retake the lead. I had a sizable lead on him when in section 4 i spun damaging the final which made the car drive even more terrible than before. i could see him catching me and i was certain on the back straight we was going to pass me. This was because i couldn't keep the car from moving around, it hit both fences.

i managed to hold him off and this morning i got the X2010. I was surprised that i also got 5 chrome paint chips because i took his message to mean that if you pick the Escuado over the other cars you also get the chips. I got to say the X2010 is amazing and i didn't have to wait to level 30 to get it too 2nd
 
You're also lucky the host didn't lie to you.

Good times, Good times.

I've decided that I'll get my X1 properly. I'm Lvl. 28 now.
 
I know I had my fingers crossed until i saw it, i was worried he wouldnt actually give it to me. I was originally intending to get it through the challange but the chance came up so i took it.
