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

I'm doing this method:
9 laps per race (because Nitro on at all times doesn't allow for more). 535k Cr for 5m48 seconds pretty much constantly (I did two races back to back with .006 of difference
), so around 92k per minute.I did reset my Tomahawks though, and only messed with the gears so they go a little slower than me - I lap just one car on my last lap IIRC.

Hm, that’s the beetle tune I tried and it wasn’t nearly as fast for me. Handles worse than the abarth with my driving style, but I’ll double check if the setups totally match.

Got to say, I've been really enjoying this update on its own.
Thanks to the increased payouts and to this thread I can now purchase and drive cars I'd actually forgotten were in this game such as the DBR9. It always felt crazy to have been able to see the XJ13 multiple times but never be able to afford it in a game! I really hope they don't nerf the payouts for custom races, I've been having much more fun than 700pp Sarthe.

I've been trying to AFK this, using a rubber band to keep the throttle pinned and keep the car steering slightly to the right. The problem is, sometimes the Tomahawks will go side-by-side on the straight and squeeze me, which sends the little Abarth looping through the air, resetting the car position and putting it back into 1st gear. This then creates a death spiral, because the car does huge wheelstands in the first two gears, so if I'm AFK, it'll do a backflip and then reset the position again, repeating ad infinitum until I intervene. I guess I can make the first two gears longer in order to avoid the wheelstands, but is the any way to prevent the car getting airborne if it hits a Tomahawk? The Tomahawks are doing about 240km/h and I'm doing about 300km/h.

Just drive the car yourself until you overtake all of them (which for me is usually at turn 1 of lap 2), then let the rubberbands take over. I geared the Tomahawks so that the Abarth doesn’t lap them the entire 25 lap race, but even when they were set to the lowest speed possible I still had no problems rubberbanding because I noticed they would move aside when being lapped.

I can’t check now, but maybe they’ve hotfixed it so engine swaps change the base PP now.
Even if they have, there will still be profitable set ups with the 400% boost.
You can test it by jumping in with a stock car if you want to verify.

Ah yeah that makes sense.

Either that or making the payouts reflect current PP rather than base PP. It still wouldn't completely nerf this particular race, as the Tomahawk performs much lower than its PP because of the gearing, but it would normalise it quite a lot. (I'm thinking also about how you can tune pretty much any road car up to compete against Gr. 4/Gr. 3 cars or maybe even Gr. 2 with the right base car, and they enjoy increased payouts compared to using Group cars).

Has there been any news of a script for this during the weekend?
That would be the cherry on top.

I just completed a script that is working nicely. I used PSRemotePlay 5.5 with PS4Macro.
The issue is I accidentally updated to version 6 and I had to wait for this video that came out today on how to fix it.
Here’s an earlier one on how to run the PS4Macro and how to record your own script.

Yeah, I reckon we have a month at best with this. I expect it to be changed with 1.41…

Yeh the fix is easy enough but even with that change, I imagine it would be possible to win this race with a fairly low PP car vs the janked Tomahawks? It could still be a worthwhile grind once fixed.
Personally I hope they don't change it, currently only works if you're at collector level 50, so it's almost a reward/end game grind for players that make it that far. I don't really remember now but it's still quite a big grind to get to 50, right?
