I've read that to fill it up, you need to do 500 races with your driver.
My driver has done 453 and isn't even 4/5 filled yet.
What am I doing wrong?
 
There are so many threads regarding this topic...
My driver has done more than 600 races and his bar isn't even 3/4 filled yet.

It seems like remote races don't count for the career.
And it seems like the first career bar is the correct one whereas the one after clicking on the driver is wrong.

However, no one knows for sure.
 
Yeah i've posted before about how odd getting this trophy is - My original Bob was my only one and filled his career bar after 330 odd races but he was only like Lv32 at the time.

Also the other Bob's i made at the time also got full career bars, but my newer ones are all around Lv 26-36 and have long careers in front of them.

Possibly something to do with the 1.06 and onwards updates?
 
If I'm not mistaken, the Air Of Experience trophy unlocks after 500 B-Spec career days (game days) not 500 races... :)
 
How do I know how many B-Spec days have been done?

That, my friend, is a good question! Anyone?

If you plow your way through B-Spec career mode (use the same driver obviously!) it'll unlock. At least, it did for me...

How far along in B-Spec career are you anyway?

B-Spec level, 38.
My driver is class 40.
I've done all races possible, need to unlock Nurb 24 hours.
I'm just getting him to do Tsukuba 9 hours over and over to level my B-Spec up.

Race=days

But do these races need to be completed?
Or can I just enter them then exit?

In my opinion that's probably the most interesting question.

The UCD refreshes after one "day". Interestingly, it's possible to achieve a refresh, for instance, just by loading a licence thingy, without really driving it.

Therefore, if we can assume that "days" have to pass for the career bar to progress, the only conclusion has to be that just entering and exiting a race will do.

Conversely, since I don't believe that PD really wants us to get this throphy that easily, I suppose that the career depends on races and not days.
(Provided that there is a specified definition of "day" in the program code and not many different commands for every eventuality, such as "what shall the program do if you load a race, enter a race without completing, completing a race,...")

I hope it's possible to follow my train of thought^^

(By the way: Feel free to correct my English, if necessary, since my final exam is on Wednesday ;) )

And it seems like enduros and 5 minute races fill up the bar the same amount.
I guess I'll have to keep doing the very first race in an X1.
Ah English, hate that bloody subject :(
