Best grind for cash?

I use a different way to set up my controller using the motion control. You just need to lean the controller on the right angle.... and remember to turn off the vibration function.

The throttle is set up similar to everyone else (this picture is just a demo of the rubber band positioning).

It's interesting to see all the different methods we have to achieve the same thing 👍.
 
All of my laps are - - : - - . - - - because I'm over 1025 laps now, but my laps were anywhere from the 51.8 to 52.2. I haven't done much with the setup aside from I believe changing the LSD slightly. Maybe lowering the ride height a bit and lowering the springs, but nothing major I can remember.

The steering input circle is just before halfway through the gear number.

I'd love to see the setup and also a screenshot of the angle. Because I can't go lower than 53s. :/

Might be a dumb question, but is your car maxed out HP and min weight? I feel like you're using maxed N300 specs

Yep. With comfort hards in the front and SS in the rear. Transmission for 300 kmph.
 
I've just set it up like the guide said, and it's cranking out 51.4-51.5 laps like a machine. I set the steering so it's only just off the wall down the straight, to avoid a violent wall collision at T1. It remains in the outermost lane for the entire lap. I've got it on TC 2, haven't tried any other settings.

With TCS? What am I missing here? Will try it again tonight and see if I can set it up to lap on 51s -52s.

Edit: found the issue... I only had upgrade lvl 3. Facepalm :D

Mine averages 52:4. But with 1:15 of race is 37sec ahead, which is roughly 0.5sec of added gap per lap.

I'll try to improve the setup tomorrow. Now, off to bed. Already bought the Cobra today. First 10.000.000+ car I've got. But without this AFK grind. It will be much easier now.
 
The most efficient payout is with the Professional X2014 Cup at Circuit de la Sarthe. For 9mins driving you win, with the Clean Race Bonus, about Cr340,000.

The X2014 has a reasonably high entry cost of Cr3.3m or so but the chances are we nearly all own one at this stage.
 
Finished 29 laps ahead of the 2nd placed Huracan Gr.4. I think maxed N400 might work.

I tried dropping the XBow to the highest N400 power, but it was too slow.

One thing the guide doesn't mention is you should change your starting position to 20th, it increases the credits, and you can still get into the lead by the first corner.
 
I’m surprised that no one has come up with a controller jig that has adjustment screws for each joystick in order to make this easier, plus it would be much more precise. Maybe I’ll try to make one up as a test. :)
This is my device below, instead of using a rubber band on the steering, I just use threaded bolt to adjust the steering and it works every time, and a rubber band for the brake.

I just put a rubber on the right trigger and let the controller on my chair. It has just the right inclination to lap consistently between 51.3 and 51.5.

Good idea. I was using something very makeshift, and it worked for a few races, but failed last night. Just made this - I might improve it in the future, but it's banging out 51.2ish laps right now:

I don’t think your photo loaded, but I definitely want to see the jig you made. :)
 
This grind would earn lots of cash.

I just use rubber bands for my grinds. I tend to keep them at 12 hours at a time. I've been burned too many times trying to do 24 hour races, the system just restarts at some point about 1/2 the time.

Not yet unfortunately, it shouldn’t be too hard to make one though. :)
I have found a better way and you do not need a controller jig, all you need is a rubber band on the throttle on the DS4. Go to city circuit Tokyo Expressway-central Inner Loop track, and have a N100 car vs the Gr.1 car race and once you select the car, and then setup the race how long you want it for. In the setup you must have Correct vehicle course after wall collision must be (ON) also, and then go to Driving Options set your Auto Drive to Brake/Steering.
I do this sometimes overnight for 4 million credits and 32,000 EXP.

Can't find it.

Edit: found it. It's still the best way? Is the car tuned at all?
Probably, but at this point I can’t remember the tune. There’s also a Gr.1 race at Monza that’s maybe 9 min? With close to the same payout with CRB.
