In your face, apparition! Almost half a second gained
Wow, it's been a while since I've heard the "In yo face" challenge. :)

Also quoting you because I too got a half-sec improvement tonight: :cheers:

29.696
56.363

Oh, and chrome NASCAR rims, and Tuxedo Black again. ;)

OK my first splits!

31.883
1:00.667

Am I dong something wrong? Not much time logged but I didn't expect to be that far behind last place. My car is not logging any miles either. What's going on? I know I am not fast and new to this but didn't expect to be over once full second out of LAST at the first split!! Maybe I AM just that bad….

My suggestion is to drive MUCH slower than you think you need to go. Do NOT slide the car, figure out what speed you can drive it without sliding and then experiment from there. This combo frustrated me a lot at the beginning, but I lowered my expectations from the car and I started to improve :)

And mine won't log miles in the TT either, but the odo in the dash keeps going up :boggled:
 
29.639
56.455

And over 3 tenths at the line :)

@Nemo Niente : I took my own advice and went REALLY smooth through the corners :dopey:
Hehe you guys are chasing tenths... I am chasing hundreths and thousanths... And am happy if I End within the same seconds as you aliens :D
 
OK my first splits!

Just go slower, break earlier, try not to slide around too much.. your times will improve and you will go faster.

Car mileage does not go up in arcade mode
 
I drove my car like it was about to be returned to enterprise. I don't want to improve my time because I want someone to see my beast of a slide at the end of t2 *assuming I get top 3 in my div*
It is plenty fast enough already. Step away from the PS3 :P
Mine is, for both the FXX and the BMW.
The ODO goes up on track, but once you are back in the garage the miles don't stick. I checked my BMW last night when I finished my session - 0km

Just be gentle. Don't turn and accelerate. Don't turn and brake. Go slow. Coasting before braking is good. Avoid staying in second gear through corners. Straighten your wheels before accelerating. Use ALL the aids you are allowed, then turn them down as you gain confidence.

You can do it. I promise, soon you will have passed me :D:tup:

This is what it looked like for me yesterday afternoon:

It shows in my garage, that's how I know. My FXX had about 400miles on it when I had finished with it, it was brand new for last week. And the BMW has about 150 so far.

My system behaves like @Barra333. As your system is behaving differently, what other differences are there out there :scared:

Come on PD, at least keep the bugs the same across all systems :lol:
 
Well I don't get miles on a car if I use it in an Arcade Race. But in TT's it's fine. I don't understand it either.

EDIT: Some info re this:

My 2002 Turbo has 208.7 miles and has been run only in Arcade Mode Time Trial.
My Mini Cooper S '11 has 0.00 miles and has been run only in Arcade Mode Race in practice for CRAP Weekly Casual Races tonight.
Brand new FXX which I had to buy a second one of because the first one had Body Rigidity Improvement installed has 411.7 miles and has only been used in the Monza TT in Arcade Mode.

So I don't know why others are not gaining miles on their car in garage view from the TT's, but I certainly am.

I have about 24 km on the BMW (shown in GT Auto, so won't reset). Maybe I took it somewhere else than Rome, can't remember.

I installed GT6 while being online so I started the game with 1.02 or 1.03.

My FXX did that, only logged one session I did in TT...
