and im just trying to soup my miata a little, should i spend a lot of money on it, or just buy a new car.
and there arent too, many things i didnt put in it yet, so why do ppl make it like theres sooo much to add to the car. i need help

Simply go to run and setting,start a race. before to start,go to the button setting and press on it.Them if you want chage part is the button change part and if you want change your setting of the car go to setting.But if do not buy the piece of the setting you want to change(ex:Suspention kit)you cannot change the setting.

so before u race, u go to setting?
and thanx for the reply, also, what if i buy like the cheapest suspention, then i buy the more expensive one after, what happens to the older one, does it just disapear?
like does the one i buy later replace the older one? or do i have the one i had before someplace else? thanx

When you buy a better upgrade, you still keep the older one, it is just taken off the cart and put in storage. You can only use upgrades on the specific car you bought them for - so if you have an MX-5 with sport suspension, and buy a race suspension for it, you can't use the left over sport suspension on a prize MX-5. However, you can switch between the two suspensions on that car by clicking the Change Parts button on the Settings screen. That's also where you change the kind of tires you have on the car.

Because you can't sell or transfer the old parts, I never buy anything but the full-race suspension, full-race transmission, and full-race LSD.

For power mods, however, I usually start with the Stage 1 items and only add higher levels if absolutley necessary.

Hope this helps!

thanx, also, i tried getting gold in the seatle circut 11
and i cant beat it!!!!
i usally just keep spinning out after a long turn, and near the finish line, there is a long wide turn, and i keep spinning out after doing the turn. i think i need better grip, and control, what should i do? im running the miata, the one under 18,000 to buy, if that matters

What is the exact model name of your Miata? Then I can help with a setup. if you have high Hp in the car try pushing the gas button half-way down, while coming out of corners. Or wait till you straighten up a little more before giving the gas.

You can also turn up the TSC (Traction Control System) a notch or 2 until you get the feel of the throttle better. It's in your settings menu before a race, in the last section.

Hope this helps, Mojo


P.S. I believe that the course that you are refering to is SS Route 11 (SS = Special Stage, The one at night is the one you are talking about, right?) On that last long turn try going half throttle til you can almost see the straight, then punch it. Each lap, hit the gas a little earlier til you start to spin out. You'll find the right spot to start excellerate at.

Awww darn,

Someone deleted my extremely disgusting, yet funny pic, that I had posted. Hope I didn't make anyone mad. It was all in good fun. I didn't think it was that bad.

I'll just have to put up a "clean" pic instead. This is an old BMW 2002 ad in the late 60's early 70's. I have one just like it. It rules.

 

[Duke]

Much better. The other one wasn't too horrible, but just a little uncalled-for in an all ages forum. I figured you'd take the hint if I deleted it so I didn't bother PMing you or anything.

 

[Mojo Rising]

Sorry Dude,

It won't happen again. Thanks.

If only it were always that easy!

No apology necessary.
