B- Spec Bob is a Knob when it comes to Ferraris

[TopGearJB007]

My Bob has never lost a race until the Ferrari event.

On the La Festa Cavallino in B-Spec I have Bob going around in a Fully- Tuned Italia. He cannot manage better than 2nd place. I have my Italia tuned to be as slippery as possible. I lowered the suspension and I set the tranny to have slower acceleration but a higher top speed. After 2-3 laps, Bob is in 2nd place, and he manages to do a brilliant pass on the 2nd Chicane to pass the mighty Enzo. My Italia is faster than the Enzo the way I have it set up, so Bob manages to fend off the Enzo on the main straight at Monza, until he !&*@ing brakes way too early and just hands the Enzo the lead going into the 1st Chicane. This is around the beginning of the 4th lap. Bob manages to glue himself to the ass of the Enzo, but he just brakes too damn early and lets the Enzo speed off and cannot manage to pass him again.

What should I do? This is all very humorous to me because I managed to get S.Vettel as a name for Bob. Who would have thunk the world champ would suck so much in a prancing pony?

Should I just buy an Enzo and fully upgrade it and get it over with? Or are there any tips for me to tune my Italia so it is virtually impossible for my B-tarded racer to lose?

My guy did just fine in a 660bhp Scuderia. It was a while ago, but I'm pretty sure he kicked arse without much trouble.

Put Bob in a Enzo.

Put Bob in a Enzo.

If all else fails, I will.

 

[TopChancer]

My guy won comfortably in a tuned 458, so it can be done.

 

[kameraboy]

Mine won it easily in the 1976 Ferrari 512BB, however, it was fully tuned.

Same here, no problem at all.

My Bob won fine with the Italia, I added some upgrades but cannot remember how much, and cannot check as Bob is at Tsukuba. I did coach him until he was in the lead, and then kept an eye on him. I will check later.

Edit: Stage3, exhaust and filter upgrades, I have no idea whether that is maxed or not as I checked from my garage.

 

[mr_van79]

I put it in an Enzo and it did fine. Easy win.

Im about to unlock this event. Any good fezzas that are cheap?


I know, none are CHEAP

 

[kremmen64]

Mine won it in a mildly tuned 599 - just told him to increase pace on the straights and he did

Put Bob in a Enzo.

HA! I put him in a fully tuned enzo and it took me 4 tries to get to first. He just won't overtake at all and when he does he lets them pass.

I think my bob is even dumber than the usual bob. I'll upload a video soon of him literally waiting still on the grass for all other cars to pass, and then continue the race. He drives as if he's driving on the road, all that's left is turn signals for ****'s sake.

The trick is here is giving bob better tires to work with, he f'ed up in my tuned 458. But after giving him way better tires he did it easily. No need for an enzo

 

[jimy281090]

I know Bob starts to lose control etc. when you tell him to increase pace but when he is coming round the last bend tell him to increase pace. There should be enough space to tell him to speed up Twice! What I also find helps is if you get him to increase peace then just continuously tell him to Maintain that pace

 

[skylinefx]

I had the same problem... He cannot brake in to the first corner properly and gets overtaken easily. Was using a fully tuned 458. After I put him in an Enzo (not fully tuned) he won easily.

Well, it also depends on his level..

 

[Cammo1707]

It can be done, my Bob did it in a tuned (but not fully) Italia.

But then again, I suppose it can be different for different Bob's.

When you say fully tuned do you really mean that the car is tuned to perfection or simply that you threw all the parts you could find on it. There is a big difference.

I let Bob use a 512bb, a California and a 599 H ewon with all 3 and none of them were maxed out but all were tuned a bit and by tuned I mean the suspension was adjusted, downforce, gears and so forth. Installing parts is not tuning.

 

[R390GT1'97]

My J.Montoya sucked when I had the Scud on hard tyres but when I bought softies. It made all the difference. Gained 3 spots off the line rather than lose 3 or 4.

 

[bond007]

my b-spec bob cruised it in an F430 with a little help just to keep him in the right temper

 

[nw99]

Bob won with the 599 believe it or not!

I messed with the LSD and cut down on the wheel spin in the corners, which helped a tiny bit, and I adjusted the tranny for slower acceleration, but a higher top speed. I figure if he sucks at corners, he can make it back up on the straights. He has a braking too early problem, which I have no idea how to fix.
