To those that have the Obey Tailgater, how hard was to find it?

I found mines at the tennis courts at the south end of Vespucci. I was driving a Sedan at the time but bear in mind that the location is reportedly known to spawn the Tailgater. You could also wait until Simeon texts you a list of cars that includes the Obey, then it'll most likely spawn at some reported spawn locations.
 
Every time I join a race online, it's always at either 'Down the Drain' or 'Criminal Records'. :grumpy:

I'm currently going there and at LS Golf Club, but it still haven't spawned. :indiff: Guess I'll have to keep searching. :scared:

They only spawn when Simeon asks for it. Once he has, don't do anything else because it can change the list. Keep driving between the golf club and the car parks on Vespuci beach and it'll spawn at one of them eventually.

Tell me about it. Either those or The Commute, always with catch up on which means unless you're miles ahead by the time you get to the two bridges, you won't win.

Um, I see. But they only spawn when they're on the list or at any list that Simeon asks?

On the Commute, on the second bridge be second close to the leader (independent of cathup on/off) after you pass the last checkpoint (not the finish line one, obvious). Draft the leader and you get the win. It's easy and simple as that.

Yes, it will only spawn when it's in the list. If it's not, do a mission. It changes the list each time you finish one. Only then will it spawn.

As for the commute well the problem is most of the time if you're leading onto the first bridge more than one person will get past you with catchup/slipstream and more often than not at least one of them will PIT you or generally try to take you out. Only once do I recall having a true slipstream race with a clean racer there.
 
Trying this now and 5 trips back an forth, no Tailgater yet.. Simeon also wants it too..
 
It took me three or four attempts before it finally appeared in the golf club. By that I mean I drove back and forth for a while once, gave up and did something else, turned the game off and tried again the next day. Finally got one a few hours ago.
 
You should not use it, it kills lobbies.
I found that out after the first time I used it. I haven't used it since.
I googled that and it sounds like that only Happens when I'm towing a car, but still.
 
Yeah that's what I meant by use it. The towing physics are not included online so if you try to use it, it locks up the whole lobby.

This. If you're going to drive a hacked-to-online car, stick to cars without an additional mechanism, such as the snowy cars and Franklin's Buffalo.
