i used the gt40 lm detuned to meet specs and it wa a breeze
I got first with the stock Furai at the beginning of 3 laps. I think the car in first was either the Camaro or the GT by Citroen. In either case, I would recommend exiting out of the race and trying again if you get the Zonda LM as an opponent (especially if he starts off in first place) since he always puts about 20 seconds between first and second and makes catching him basically impossible. Just my thoughts tho. Good luck!

I was also on a quest to beat all 3 with a GSX, 1st 2 no problem however I could only manage 3rd at GVS. The reason, I was borrowing a GSX from one of my other accounts, and it was not powerful enough, will add power later and do it again.

i can't understand how some people are having such a hard time with this round of seasonals *scratches head*
I am by no means a good driver, in fact i class myself as a VERY bad driver because i'm to aggressive and push to hard from the off till i cross the line. with that out of the way...the only seasonal i had trouble with was Sarth and after about 10 restarts ( i could see i wasn't going to win) and after trying MANY cars and set-ups i finally settled on the 2J which absolutely left them all behind. i won that race by well over a minute with only a little prodding for bob to keep his pace.
2nd race i used the Nissan Yellowhat, with much prodding, bob won by over 30 seconds.
Then i went onto the A-spec seasonals, keeping the cars at the max PP and using racing hards, i pasted the competition in the first race using a Renault 5 Turbo. 2nd race i used the Renault 5 Turbo again, same as before. Grand valley. by the time i finished that it was 3 am and was tiered so i used the Jag XJ13 Race Car on racing softs (it was late and i wanted some sleep and wanted to finish quickly).
I plan on doing all of the A-specs again with different cars. grand valley i'll be using the interceptor on sports mediums or hards and i have no doubt i will win
As i said, i am not a good driver.

I don't think your driving ability counts for much when B-Speccing...

I've always won this race using the Toyota Minolta, de-tuned since I had it up to 1040 HP, turned down downforce & added ballast
Set top speed to about 205

Actually what i was pointing out is that i have no idea about the intricacies of fine tuning a car to get the best performance for driving style...i have no driving style other than go as fast as i can round the whole circuit while trying to keep on the track itself. that's not to say i come off the track or hit walls allot, i rarely come off the track or hit the walls but when pushing to hard i do go into bends and corners to fast resulting in hard breaking and loss of momentum.
As far as B-spec goes, if i had greater tuning knowledge my bobs wouldn't struggle as much as they do.
My bad, i should have been more clear.

Tried 3 cars today for this one:
Ford GT LM Race Car: 3 failed attempts, not even finished... it losses a lot of time in the corners, not to mention its extremely unstable without aids. Leading car: Zonda LM.
Ford Falcon: 1 attempt, 2nd place. 7 seconds behind another McLaren F1... Way better than the GT in all aspects... except HP of course... Didn't push it that hard really...
Giller Vertigo: 1 attempt, 1st place. Detuned. Very solid performance. Still, it's pretty slow on the corners despite having about 150-170 HP less than it's "full power" self. Caught the leading F1 on the last lap.

I only made 1 attempt at it. I used the Vertigo and the "bad" AI car was the 2J.
Failed with min downforce, 900hp. Easy win with 600ish hp and high downforce.

Quick question, where did you find that GTR concept?
EDIT: Oh never mind I just won it with a Citroen GT race car!!! Easy win! I won by 5 seconds!
