If my B-spec Bob pits because of fuel or tires does he come out in 1x speed or will he continue on in 3x mode as I left him?

it will reset to race view and 1x speed

The most important element to notice is the value of the prize car. I´ve found the hottest events to make more money by calculating the total prize (prize car + prize money of the event) and dividing it by the estimated time. Surprisingly the event that gives the most money is Ice Race Normal (in Rally de Capri Easy they give you a more valuable car, but you take more time to finish it), you get a $159k, but you finish the race in about 6 minutes.

The events that give the most $/min are the Special Conditions Events, The German Touring Car Championship, and unbelievably the Italian Festival (The Alfa Romeo is worth $265k).


Here I present the the top 80 A-spec list (the times are estimated, you can make more $/min if you use fast cars). If you want to make lots of money, but don´t want to bore by running the same event over and over again, I recommend you to run events 1-6 from the list (over $20k/min). Events 7-27 give moderate yields ($10k-$17K/min), and is recommended to play these events in B-spec mode. Finally events 28-44, will only give you decent amounts if you play it only on B-spec mode.

Here´s the list

P.S. not all events have been calculated, becuase they offer low yields, but they could be added to have a complete list. If you have any information concerning the estimated times and prize money for these events and others, post it, and I´ll make a new list.

 

[ket01084]

When considering the B-spec mode, these events yield more money ($30k-60k/min) that the Rally de Capri Easy: (German Touring Car Cup, La Festa Italiano, Japan Championship, Pan Euro Championship, and Schwarzald Liga B)

There are also 12 more events where you can make more than $20k/min. Here is the Top40 list for B-spec mode (making $10k/min is still decent).

[TornadoAlley]

Nice list.

I'm asuming when you say B-spec you mean having the race at 3x.

One thing I found was if you skip the first race of the DTM (german touring car cup) you can make more per minute as most of the money is made in the prize car.

The numbers I got were (all b-spec at 3x):
Race the entire series --- $893749 --- 16 minutes = $55,859/min
Skip the first race -------- $878749 --- 12.5 minutes = $70,300/min

 

[concentric]

that's a good point tornadoalley, off to dtm i go..

 

[JFM92_GTRacer]

So DTM championship=$$$
I need money man!

 

[ALFA GT]

What is the easiest to get money if your only using A-Spec..

 

[craig1591]

I stumbled upon this this afternoon. If you do the Tsukuba Wet Normal in Special conditions, you get a Mazda 6 Touring Car that u can sell for $95,000 plus u get $10,000 for the win. The competition isn't that hard to beat either.

 

[Forge]

the german touring car championship in euro hall has the highest ive seen. the car you win sells for right around 700k, like 15k per race and 45 i think for winning the series. takes right around 8 minutes to b-spec the whole thing.

150K for the series, (all wins and the series purse) + 743K = ~900K a run, for 7 total days (recieve and sell prize car included) and real time minutes it is the fastest way to get $$

 

[speed_demon]

i think that part of the fun is that you have to race yourself to get the money becoz you then appreciate the car more because you had to work for it

After A-specing it twice, the warm fuzzies disappeared. Now it's all about time and money $$$$$$

So how many CLK-GTR(LM) have you guys won?
I have no idea myself, but well over 20 anyway.

About ten for me.

 

[mizx]

just a little tip for the DTM, if you know you can win every race easily with b-spec, once one of the races has started, just retire from the race and skip to the next one, you'l do the whole championship much faster, you only lose a tiny bit of your win ratio and 15,000cr.

it's a good idea to skip the race that takes the longest, i just skip opera as my b-spec driver never wins it, it takes me less than 12 mins from entering the championship to getting the CLK-GTR, that works out at 4,393,745cr. per hour

Hey guys, what car should i use on Supercar festival, in professional events..
if you can help, thanks

wait... sorry.. what car would be the best choice... right now im using a dodge viper srt10 '03

 

[BaronCAD]

Do you want the best for A-spec? or for Battling Bob?
These two cars will give you 200 points:
Mercedes SL 55 (R230) '02-493hp
BMW M5 '05-499HP

 

[profet of jebus]

get 200,000 by doin the second special race. go to mercedees and buy the 65 amg. go to 1 make races in mercedees. do the silver arrow. u can win all of em as long as the mclarren aint there. so keep tryin until u win. then go to european races and go to the dtm race(duetcshe _____ miesterchaft).win the championship with the car u won at silver arrow. sell the 750,000 dollor car and re-race the tourney.

This has been discovered and said atleast 10 times before...

 

[niclake13]

There is a quicker way.

Take your fully modded CLK Touring Car in German Touring Championship and play it in B-Spec mode(3x speed). You can get all prize money and the prize car(CLK-GTR which is worth 800k)in just 20 minutes.

That's what I've done for all my money. 150k from 1st in races, 749.xxxk from the car... just under 900k per series, on Bspec takes about 20-25 minutes, depending on how quick you are getting through the pre/post-race screens.

If you need the AMG SL65 to do Legends of the Silver Arrow, there's something wrong... I did it in an SL500 with a semi-racing exhaust (everything else stock), against the McLaren SLR every time, and won fairly easily...

Funny how everyone uses the Mercedes CLK Touring Car for B-Speccing the DTM, and then say that Bob can't win the Opera Paris round - in an Opel Astra Touring Car with NA3, he wins without any problem

Is it possible to use the BMW m3 gtr race car in the DTM race?

hey i do that...
i use audi...
it'll give you less then 1m cause 15k per race + championship price money + the price car and sell it...

 

[bdmtb]

I know I'm a little late in the game, but about the black cars. Can I still get them after the 700th day? Does the game re-cycle every 694 days?

Thanks for all the money tips.

^yep... and it's even more fun to do it over and over again, and then check out your garage with 7 clk gtr's chillin out in there .... then sell em all for a cool 5.2 mil gotta save up for them 4 black LMP cars somehow now dont'ya?

and you can get the time down on that championship by starting oh... say the nurburg ring race in a-spec and then quiting out of it and move on to the last race... you still win the points bracket and only lose out on 15k, but you get those clkgtr's even faster

how else are you supposed to get enough money in the beginning to fund all the different makes/types of cars to win all the races besides doing a lot of the same races over and over again?... i think b-spec is just lame when it is abused.... but then again b-spec doesn't work all that great unless you get your b-spec rating up high enough so your driver doesn't go into the dirt on every hairpin... so ... meh... people who don't like b-spec, don't use it ... more power to yah

The game recycles every 700 days. Cars available in every 694-700 day cycle.

Have a look at this thread, specifically at Famine's posts. That should answer your question too.

[NOSBLAST]

Yep MZS said it, the German Race with the modded Mercedes Touring car in B-spec mode with speed 3x.

4-5 races of $15K= 75K......1st place price another $75K. Sell the Prize car for $750K.

So you get about $900 000 dollars in 10 minutes.

I'd like to point out you win exactly $893,749 credits, not $900,000


Celebrate good times everyone
