How I USED to make 5,000,000 credits/hour through Custom Races... using a Fiat. But not anymore.

Here i am, just waiting for the most expensive cars to show up in the Legendary Dealer, what a weird feeling.
Is there any easy way to find out what you are missing, my best take on it was going to the used car dealer and see my collection there based on "value", but maybe someone has another idea.

There is a blue book icon next to the cars you've already bought once, so if a car show up without this icon, you've never bought it.

I just want to know, how much more i need to grind.

Your Car Collection can be viewed in your Garage (rightmost icon in the row at the bottom)

It shows you all the individual cars you have, but not any multiples.

Have done the abarth method 3 times at daytona, its already becoming boring to do, not as fun as LeMans, or Tokyo grind, but it pays good, i already own most of 20 million cars i want even before the spec ll update arrived, even own 3 mclaren f1, you dont need to gold everything at Daytona to get good payouts, i have gold on all sectors, bronze on full lap and its still a 363% boost, i am sure i can improve my time on the full lap as i only went 2 runs,

It isn't as fun to do as le mans, but it is AFK-able, so... My controller can be bored without me

 

[chengman]

Have you got gold on the Circuit Experience?

Ahhh nope I don't. Does that matter for custom races?

Quite a lot, actually.

Well thats a joke. Here is the AHK script i developed based off the old one by Septomor:

1. gt7, ps5 required
2. download chiaki v2.2, install
3. double click your ps5 in chiaki
4. use this to get your psn id in base64, enter in chiaki -> https://psn.flipscreen.games/
5. go to ps5 settings, remote play, link device, itll show the pin, enter pin in chiaki
6. download autohotkey v1.1 deprecated version
7. download my script from pastebin. Save it into a .ahk file.
8. map nos to L1, accel R2, steering Left stick. Set units to metric kph.
9. get in tomahawk car, tune to setup screenshot, make sure ballast 200kg -50 position, 70 power output
10. setup custom race at daytona tri oval, 20cars, start pos 20, 26 laps, Start Type - Rolling Start, Boost off, weak sliptstream, max out the rolling start interval, Nitrous Usage Time Multiplier: 10x, custom opponents from garage (it should fill up with tomahawks), Rival Difficulty - Professional Level -> save this as a race setup for later use. it should state 1.031M cr for winning.
11. get in your abarth 595, K20 eng swap, fully tune it except bumpers/spoilers. tune it as per screenshots.
12. go setup the custom race at daytona tri oval again, load the race setup saved from step 9
13. start the race, pause the race, hover over retry
14. open the script file, set to pixel option
15. hit start
16. you should get 1.5M with clean race bonus every time, about 4.5M/hour. laptimes should be ~48s
17. Set tc1View attachment 1302227View attachment 1302229View attachment 1302226View attachment 1302228

I did everything like you showed but i can't get it to go under 52sec a lap. This means that it wants to exit the replay to early and get's stuck. What do I need to change in the script to delay this from happening?

 

[jonoholland29]

They’ve updated the known issues today and the Custom/Quick race PP bug is still on there

 

[tenpiecenug]

Is the payback for selling around 70% the current price?

For the Shelby its roughly 50% ($10M). I'd suggest buying the McLaren F1 GTR instead. Buys for $12.5M $15M and sells for roughly $9M. Also has the chance to appreciate in value.

Edit: I'll add to this that the Valkyrie is a good place to park credits as well. Buys for $4M, sells for ~$2.4M. Only downfall is there is no chance at the price increasing as it's in Brand Central and not Legends.

Open the script in notepad and find the t = 12900000 value near the top of the script. This is milliseconds that the race/turning section of the script uses I believe. I changed mine to 13570000 and it's working for me, maybe 20 seconds of dead time after race ends and I'm doing 50.5s laps average.

You could probably optimize this for whatever laptimes you are doing. Just multiple avg lap time x laps and give a buffer and try it out. If you have 2+minutes of downtime after the race ends, remove 120000 from the value (120 seconds)

Edit - I was going off memory - the script shows t := 1290000 under the constants section. I changed mine to t := 1356000 with ~50.5-51s laptimes.

1290000ms converts to 21.5 minutes and if you were hitting 48s laps your race would take 20.8 minutes, 21.5 minutes gives it time to handle the race starting delay, ending delay, variances in laptime as car degrades.

I just did some quick math with ~51s laps x 26 laps = 1326 seconds + 30 second buffer = ~1356 x 1000 to get 1356000

Can this be used with X2014s and the Beetle?

Is there a decent tuning guide for the Beetle?

I tried a DIY tune and it was...

This is what I've been using, doing it by hand though. I'm going to attempt the script method tonight to see if it works with the X2014s and Beetle. Be advised, if you have the X2019, that works too. I bought the X2014 thinking it had to be specific.

 

[mixamun]

I would guess so. It seems to be a generic script to turn right, acceleration and boost for a set time and then restart the race.

I can try messing with this.

Stupid question, do I have to redo these steps after every race or can I just start it and leave and it will loop until I stop it?

Thanks!

EDIT: Nvm, it does!

Up to 62M Cr. now 😱

Beetle was a no-go. It would spin out at the beginning, and even de-tuning the X2014s - they would catch up and I'd run out of nitrous. Trying Abarth and Tomahawk now. So far so good.

 

[Ande3200]

I use the redbulls for the daytona grind, the payout is barely any different campared to the tomahawks

Make sure you used auto gearbox

I’ve used the beetle and red bulls with no issues at all

Hi DM me

I know another method on afk but u need a PC and a PS4 controller


Also using naffantait latest build you can finish a race with an Abarts 595 SS in 22 mins, using NOS also go check on his channel

AI went into the pits?? I watched this three times I think it's possible in getting the car straight the AI clipped into the pit road zone and forced the pitstop

 

[ocelot-prodigy]

I keep rear ending one of the Tomahawks on lap 2 and it spins me out. Happening pretty consistently. Might need to switch to the X2014s.

Speed them up a bit. With a 170mph cap I'm still lapping them four times even on a wallride setup. At 180mph chances are that'd be twice, and possibly none at all at 185...

I found the X2014 to be a better car for physically grinding against. The AI Tomahawks seem to be much "racier" - racing side-by-side, swerving to block and pass, etc. Truthfully, I got so sick of crashing into Tomahawks that I rage-sold my first one for a loss and went back to using the X2014 - at least until I started using the Abarth/Tomahawk combo for wall-riding/AFK'ing.

The tomahawks racing does not happen for me. They just drive in a consistent line. The trick was to set the starting spacing to be 100ft. That spacing appears to make the AI non competitive in that they are too far apart to get tow from the prior car and they are all matched in performance so they just drive as they start...

Thank you! I believe this solved my problem!!!

Thanks y'all! I'll try this when I get home. Managing Chiaki over a VPN is pretty difficult. But it is annoying to check in every so often to find my car is sitting on the track or doing donuts after a rear-ending. Works some of the time, and not the other. I think I'll de-tune the X2014's better since their hitboxes are smaller than the Tomahawk. I'm doing this all in hopes to hit 100m before the PP in custom races is adjusted, rendering this whole thing useless.
