Anyone interested in joining me now for Trash Talk and Sightseer, I'm working towards getting an X80 to replace my Zentorno as the ******* Insanemobile :lol:

It's a damn fun car to have.

50% off the Lampadati Toro..
 
I bought a Lampadati Toro ever such a long time ago.

I went sailing.

I encountered another player and proceeded to invite him on board. He dropped a grenade. We died.

Sailing isn't fun.

Don't buy a Lampadati Toro.

I bought a Pegassi Speeder when it was free.

I went sailing once and can't think of any other time I used it.

I never encountered another player who wanted to go sailing in my Speeder.

Sailing is pointless.

Don't buy a Pegassi Speeder, especially since you could've had it for free.
 
Everyone bashes the tug but that thing is awesome. It's on my list to buy. You can hold a whole lobby on the freaking thing. Plus you can put a car on it too so you can jam to Los Santos Rock as you and 29 others all sail into the sunset getting drunker than ever.
 
I remember somebody on the forum complaining that the X80 had poor handling (don't remember who) but I think it's pretty great. My only complaint is that the engine noise doesn't match the speed you are travelling at.

Yeah I haven't had any handling issues, I love driving it. Though I may make a playlist of races to give it a good test
 
I always test my cars on my own Top Gear Test Track and what the X80 makes up in speed the T20 pulls it back on handling. I can't separate the X80 or the T20.

There is something challenging with the X80, you have to brake a bit earlier and make sure you keep it smooth on the corners. The T20 isn't as fast but you can brake later and it turn on a dime.

Unless you're racing on long highway based tracks the Supercar category is still competitive.

The spoiler really helps the handling on it too.

I just wish we could paint the black strips and the rear splitter on the X80....its bugging me!

So I've just done a racing playlist with the X80, fully modified. For me, the car is wonderful to drive. It has the right amount of twitchyness that there is a little bit of a challenge to drive it. The braking gives you something to think about, as does the turning radius. However, I had a fantastic little battle with @Leadfoot530 in one of the races.
 
I have just lost faith in humanity GTAO community...

I have tried the Serie A - Weed mission 5 times with randoms, and they just can't figure it out!!! Like is it honestly that hard to follow directions and not die!?

The 5th try I thought I had it...I delivered the Benson with 2 minutes to spare. The other guys came with the Technical and the Benson with about 45 seconds to go...all they had to do was to make 3 tight turns and go into the warehouse. The Technical flipped and the Benson got stuck...like come on! We were right there. They would have beaten the time limit if they stayed on the road, and took that little entry dirt road slow.

I just don't get it.

I had a case of the Technical driver storming ahead to protect no one, leaving me and the other Benson driver to fend for ourselves. Real nice.
 
I had the Benson arrive just a fraction second TOO LATE. I was at warehouse, the Benson came storming down the dirt road to no avail. It reached the bottom just as the timer ran out :irked:

That's why I either wait for friends to get on or don't do heists at all. Seems like every time I do anything with randoms they wind up being incompetent morons and dumb things like what you just posted.
 
At least you're not with me.

How to do "Series A - Weed" with SPD on the Benson.

- Drive Benson through railroad to dodge GPS roadblocks.
- Prays for no train spawn, especially on the tunnels.
- Sees train in tunnel.
- Has no choice, and rams train.
- Benson is nearly dead with black smoke.
- Try not to cry.
- Cry.

In other non related heist news, playing with pubs suck. I'm pretty much in a closed group for heisting. I mean when I repeated the Humane Labs finale for my bo-at fund, it was because the other guy with me on the lab invasion FORGOT TO PUT ON THE REBREATHER AND DIED LIKE 5 TIMES IN THE DRINK BEFORE REALIZING IT'S FREAKING THERE. If I got the need to add a mandatory rule, this game needed an IQ requirement and good grounds for English before heading online.

That's what the Technical did to me too! But usually the guys on the Technical would die, so we would lose. So I just took the Benson and powered ahead of the Technical. I'd just throw sticky bombs at the roadblocks. I never died in doing that, though. It was always the randoms behind me. :banghead:

I tried two more times, failed both. I mean, there was a level 4000 in the lobby and we still failed. :banghead:

One of the times we failed, a random shot an RPG directly into the Technical. He was a level 400. :banghead:

I think I'll try it one more time, but after that I'm done.

I had the same problem with the Trash Collector - Series A one too. When we got to the gas station they'd always blow themselves up. I happened to get lucky today and we actually did it.

I mean, what is so appealing to randoms about using explosives in a tight situation, where something can easily go wrong. I mean, I did, but I was still pretty careful.
