Yes any of the group c cars are worth there price rather is for 800pp race or the 700pp race at le man each group c car is super fuel efficiency each with great handling and top end speed.

If you are grinding sardegna look into the Bugatti vgt GR.1. I used the praianos tune here and its solid. I can consistently run 138's and if I dont screw up 136's on FM1 and 2 stops. I finish under 26 minutes. The brakes are amazing. Yes my mclaren f1 is faster in the straights, but the brakes arent as strong so I have to brake earlier. I finsih about 30-60 seconds faster overall with the bugatti. It might be that im just more familiar with the bugatti as ive ground out about 30 mill credits the last few days.

Nice good info. Much appreciated. Im certainly looking forward to the R92 and 787b coming into the legacy dealer.

Right now im making 27,884 credits per minutes with 26 minutes per race. with those it would be up to 31,521 per minute. Sardegna appears to be the best credit maker per minute out of the big 4, especially since tokyo is easier to lose the crb.

To be honest bro, i think we are just beginners, i use 919,best record is 24:50, best lap alittle bit over 1:34, i also tried different cars, average like 25:10 around, the quote thread really blew my mind, however, i use their tune for xjr-9 but didint performe well, i think it's more about skills here rather than car or tunes, i'm lame iplay with all assist.
im waiting for 787b and r92cp too.

As usual the game makes things quite confusing.

For the UCD special picks always seem to be lower milage versions of a car.
Here it seems to be the opposite?
The RA272 that appeared today has 1965km while mine, which I bought the last time it was available and wasn't a special pick AFAIR, currently has just 59km.... 🤔
 
Can I have the list of the next upcoming cars on the LCD, please?
I've bought the 250 GTO last year (ok, 2 days ago) and of course, I'm broke now :D

Here are my 7 missing cars:

Citroen GT Road car (invitation)
McLaren F1
Porsche 917K
Nissan 400 R Nismo
Mercedes 300 SL (W194)
Mercedes 190 E 2.5 16S Evo II
Dodge Charger R/T '68

Thanks in advance :)

300 SL is the next $20mm car up for grabs. I winced a bit making this purchase knowing I could have checked off several other cars for the collection, or bought a few multiples for my 50s/60s custom grids but it is a dream to drive!

Sir Crashalot
Which gearbox does the 300SEL have? The GT Wiki says 4-speed but the real car had a 5-speed ZF transmission AFAIK.

It is a 4 speed in the game

Thx! It's a 4-speed A/T, correct? AMG did use a 4-speed A/T but AFAIK never with the 6.8 liter engine but with the 6.3 liter engine.
So it seems like the car in the game has a wrong gearbox. I just wonder why? Does anyone know more about this?

I think the whole car (this specific one) is a mashup of AMG parts. Chassis, gearbox, engine

After some calculations and no matter what I'll win on TTs, daily races and the roulette, I must grind Le Mans (with the CRB) every day until 19th march to buy these 6 cars.
For the Citroen GT, I have to wait for the invitation :)
 
Sir Crashalot
Yeah, guess you're right. Tires are much too eide also, those wouldn't have fitted on the real car.

They certainly did.

Apparently the real car indeed had a four speed automatic in that race, but was later equipped with a five speed ZF.

Yes, you're right, my fault. I just reread the article I found about the car some time ago and it was in 1969 when they had problems fitting wider tires but then they widened the body because of this.


I'm not sure about the gearbox though. This article from the German "Oldtimer Magazine" reads like they fitted the 5-speed manual before the Spa Race.
