13.5 hours to go.
so funny looking at bob smashing the rear of other slower car off track when i put it on X2010. In the end of the 1000km suzuka, almost all the car have their rear bending. I guess if put it on the narrow nurburgring, all the other car will end up with rear bending.

My new Bob, Gottschalk (I figured he would be good at the Ring, LOL) was in his first ever race, the FF Challenge, in a largely stock Civic R. He's my first with a really hot personality. He was in second on Suzuka East, and having no luck passing the leader. On the last turn before the final straight he drifted OUTSIDE the leader, almost into the trap, and pulled off the win. Go Bob!

One of my Bobs, A. Moody (I like to call her Amanda; she's so fast currently at Driver Class 11, she thinks she's Sonic the Hedgehog!) tried to do what my B-spec drivers never tried to do: win a championship race outside the NASCAR Series (my B-spec level hasn't even reached 20 yet) with a NASCAR stock car (she drove the only NASCAR race car in my garage right now, the Chevrolet "2010 Jimmie Johnson #48 Impala")...and won the first two races...until stupidity struck and I had to quit. She won her first championship race, the Clubman Cup using this special type of car. It seemed after the first few races, I heard a chime followed by audience applause because I knew her Driver Class went up a level. I've noticed that if you put a lower-class B-spec driver in a tuner car or a race car, you can expect to hear a chime followed by audience applause at the end of the race if you coach him/her well.
Another one of my "Bobs", A. Takeda (I like to call him Andrew (Driver Class 12 currently), who drives as if something has possessed him; he's got a personality similar to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure protagonist Jotaro Kujo) won ALL 5 Tuning Car Grand Prix races...in a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C6) RM '06 - where the norm would usually be tuning cars.
I've even had moments where my B-spec drivers have had a chance to capitalize off AI opponents' mistakes, like one time an AI opponent in a DOME-ZERO '78 was slipping and sliding at Grand Valley East...and then a few seconds later spun out of control on a straightaway. My B-spec driver never looked back after that nasty pileup the '78 caused.
...and then my first PAINFUL B-spec loss by .03 seconds occurred just a few weeks ago when one of them used a Dodge Challenger SRT8--in the Beginner Series FR Challenge! I tried to quit, but instead, heard the second place jingle and got the cash. I was so shocked, I couldn't even talk for several minutes. I got so mad, I had to retire J. Case (the one in the Challenger) after one race, thinking to myself having a Driver Class 0 driver in this type of race was a very stupid move. I'm a little more careful in B-spec mode nowadays...

My Bob raced the Lupo Cup on Nordschleife....that was an epic battle. I didn´t tuned the Lupo Cup car, standard config like the opponents.
Very close race over 2 laps....it was a pleasure to watch. My Bob did a great job to overtake one after another and managed to get 3rd at lap two and an epic battle started. He made really nice overtaking moves and managed to get 1st at 70% of lap 2 and started to take the lead to finish line for 5 sec.
Thank you, Bob for this fanatstic race. I think, you are not as stupid as I thought, so you can be a winner with an identic car like your opponents.

My lead driver, N(ick? Sounds good to me.) Stevens, at Level 21 at the time, was sitting third in the DTM race on the Nordschleife. He was in an Astra, about a second and a half behind the 1st place CLK and the 2nd place M3 GTR entering the long straight. He slowly reeled them with the draft and as the M3 tried to pass on the outside at the left kink, Nick headed for the other side of the CLK and made the pass on the curb as the trio went three-wide through the kink! All three managed to stay on track and Nick wins by half a second!

My lvl 13 Bob (B. Elliot) finally made me proud today.
I had just unlocked the Historic Race, so I sent him to it in my Jaguar XJ13, and for most of the race at Deep Forest, he sat in 3rd getting spanked by a 7 and a 2J which were blowing the field away.
On the last lap at the tunnels the 2J slid up and collided with the wall allowing the 7 and my Bob to close the gap and pass him, from there it was a bumper to bumper fight to the last turn between the Bob and the 7, when all of a sudden my Bob, for the first time ever, grew a pair and dove hard into the inside of the 7 putting two tires into the grass and pulled ahead and won by half a car length.
He then fought a rough battle at Cote, and wound up 2nd, mostly due to a fluff on the last turn of the last lap where he thought the wall was a good place to park.
I've grown some new found faith in my Bob, and can only hope my other two were paying attention to how it's done.
