I'm just running the Indy 500 using the X2010 (yes I know its easy in that car but by using it, I can just leave it running on one side of the TV whilst I have the football on the other side), and virtually every single time all 4 of my Bobs comes to lap another car, they just smash into the back of them at over 200MPH! Will doing this repeatedly cause any permanent damage to the car?

Bob is great but he doesn't seem to be able to grasp that you can't drive through the other cars!
 
Great, can't see repairs on an X2010 being cheap.

Is it the Restore Rigidity thing that you need to do to fix it?
 
probably yes but I won't do the repair, bobs are are going to drive minolta which they wrecked :dopey:

they still can can win races with it so there's no problem :sly:
 
My Bobs have run a FGT I bought specifically for them for over 8k miles I believe. Even after an oil change or an engine overhaul, the max hp the car gets now is only 865. Oh well because that's my workhorse B spec car. They rarely crash it. The X2010 I traded for use in B spec driving on the other hand....
 
Both my FGT and X2010 have got about 4,000 miles on them, the X2010 is specifically for B-Spec, I won't ever use that thing anywhere else.
 
I hate my Bob. :grumpy:

He's currently racing the Indy 500 and all I hear is constant sounds of car crashing to others while "smoothly" "trying" to overtake. And tires spinning when he loses the control of the X1. He is at level 28 but isn't very smart yet. And probably never gonna be... I think I'll have to pave him a way to the greener pastures after the race... :trouble:
 
There's no such thing as permanent damage in GT5. So he can crash all he want, it does NOT affect the car at all. The only thing that happens is that the chassis loses its rigidity over time and that the engine becomes less powerful (as a result of mileage). That's what the rigidity restore and engine overhaul are for. Again: only mileage affects the cars handling and power, crashes do not.
 
I have 3 spare X2010s that I've given to my Bobs to trash around. They're quickly putting thousands of kms on them.

Indeed: they don't do permanent damage by crashing/rolling/general abuse, but since B-Spec grinding usually involves lots more laps than A-Spec, they're ruining the chassis of the cars relatively quickly.

I don't really care though. Even with a knackered X2010 my most incompetent Bobs will still win :)
