So need to beat the 3rd race in supercar event. I think its level 14. I had ok luck when I use my 800HP C5Z but the thing is, its so hard to control. I can just ease it around the track and put myself just in front of the leader, but if I try to "lose" everyone it just does not end well for me. Also If I fuck up once everyone comes flying past me. Im talking going in the grass a tad, giving it to much gas around a turn or if the 2nd place guy bumps me. Car just spins out and everyone passes. Im thinking I need a slower can I can drive faster around the track so I bought a 06 viper.

At the start of the race EVERYONE just pulls away from me like nothing even LT1 Corvettes, its bullshit. I put intake, exhaust, tune and tires on the viper and the same result. Do you need a modded up car to even compete in races now? This is bullshit, I bet if I had a stock GTR Id own.

Also why is the HP off on like EVERY american car?

my 1987 race car civic (that you win early on) beat two of the supercar events.. :rofl:

they would KILL me in the straight aways, but id kill them in the turns

You know I cant take anything you say seriously anymore... Why are you still driving a 87 Civic if you are in level 14? How much HP does it have?

Just does not make sense to me, I buy/race a car that should be faster than the computer cars, yet gets lost right at the beginning. As if the computer cars are modded to fuck.

Edit: Not like it requires skill to go WOT. I can see if they were losing me on the turns but I don't even get to the first turn and im in last place.

:picard:

its a 1987 Civic 'Race Car'... 240 hp and it weighs NOTHING.. its one of those 'race cars' you win but cannot mod, bc its fully modded.. R compounds, super light weight.


here:

A-Spec Amateur

Clubman Cup: Honda Mugen Motul Civic Si Race ‘87 (S)

Thats it.

And i have the 800hp c5z as well.. Learn how to tune the suspension and it will do wonders for you.

Pretty sure I got that Civic also but traded it in. I didn't think it was anything special. I don't see how that car can win against supercars on a course with some long straights. Especially when I buy a 500HP viper and the AI cars just pull away right off the start. YoushallgoFo had my C5Z for 3 days tuning the suspension, its better, but its no GTR.

ill run the race right now and take a picture of the screen where i win.. unforuntaley, my vid camera has not worked for over a year now, so i cant do that.

I'm talking intermediate > level 14 (I think) > super-car series > last race around Nuremberg GP.

Id be very interested in a full video of the race so I can see the technique. If you indeed can beat that race with a 240HP Civic.

I'm betting I used my maxed out gtr...I used it for tons of races...i'm level 23 now...just wait till you get to the historic cup and gt all stars races in expert, they will want to make you shoot yourself in the face. I finally beat the historic cup by .3 seconds, still working on gt allstars
