Any comments?

It's interesting to note that line up 6, which was for 200 A-Spec points, is no where near as competitive as some of the other line ups, and is probably possible to win. What was the reason for doing the first 8 line ups, as opposed to say, trying to find them all?

Good work. 👍

 

[GM]

I got tired, anyway, the most I would of done is 10.

Any comments?

Excellent post. Did you finish/win any of the races, or just run two laps?

I think I'll take a stab at bettering the lousy 30 points or so I've already done this race for.

 

[GM]

No, I just did two laps, I later tried a whole race, coming second to the Pagani Zonda LM.

Hmm, okay. Not to sound disrespectful or anything, but what was the point then? A race that can yield 200 points isn't much good unless you actually win it.

 

[GM]

What was the point of what?

 

[SirBerra]

Dream Car Championship. What is that all about? Some Japanese translation gone bad. Anyway, I'm not sure exactly what this thread is really about. Weird points spreads or using the Calibra to win the race or series? I'm sorry if I misunderstand the true meaning of this thread.

I'll give this information to make the series easy for 200 points. I did happen to notice that the lineup really does have a wide spread of points. Anway, I generalized that two Ford GTs and a Jaguar or a Pagani give 200 points for this race against the Honda 2000 LM Race Car as setup below (I never checked how close to 200 points). The Jaguar is a slug and the Fords are only a little better. The quickest one is the Pagani.

I was just playing around with the lineups George showed and basically a Honda 2000 LM Race Car with Stage 3 Turbo (471 HP), R3s, max downforce and about 70 units ballast will turn 1:11.8 to 1:12.8 laps at Deep Forest literally devastating any competition, no matter what vehicle is in the lineup. It finished about 25 seconds ahead easy. So I guess if the Honda goes against lineup 6, you could literally coast around the track for an easy, easy win.

The only tough race is at Sarthe against a Pagani (choose a different lineup that doesn't have a Pagani if you wish). I had to set my top gears to around 200 MPH and used NOx to stay ahead. If you are behind you can easily draft the fastest car on long straights with a quick burst of NOx. If you're behind near the finish, just cut the grass and get by since the opponent has to slow down.

All the other races are just fluff since the Honda 2000 LM sticks like glue on twisty courses. All in all, it's an easy way to make 200 A-spec points for all Dream??? Car Races .

Ahh, now that's some useful information! I just picked up an S2000 LM Race Car and slapped the turbo and tires on it, and it works very nicely! I ran the Deep Forest race against whatever lineup came up (one Ford GT and the XJ220, Mazda RX-7 LM Race Car came in second though) and cruised to a 25 second victory even though my laps were all in the low 1:13's. I'll get a little more familiarity with the car then go 200 point hunting. Thanks for that info!

Glad it helps. I did the race long time ago and don't even know what car I used the first time around. I believe another suitable vehicle is the Audi ABT TT-R Touring Car, also. I looked at this thread today and from experience from other races using the Honda I felt it was a near-perfect vehicle. There are probably a few others. You might be able to squeeze 200 points with the Honda at other Race series, too. It's fairly versatile.

I know the Suzuki GSX-R/4 can win at most of the Dream Car races for 200 points except maybe Sarthe and Test Course since it's rather underpowered. George's lineups are definitely useful for that purpose.
