I've tried both the ceramo. Supra and the yellowhat GTR, but I can't for the life of me come any closer than 14 seconds behind the winner.. I don't pit, and I start with inters...
 
I used takata dome NSX '03. Put turbo on, it will be running just under 600bhp at 600pp. I used level 32 driver and also raced on RH for entire race. Very easy win!
 
wait at the loading screen for the track water indicator to go under 20 ( i wait 18 to make sure make sure you have inters on. the cpu cars will pit after first lap and again on lap 8 giving you an easy win!!!
 
B-spec Driver
D.Stevens
Lv.32

Epson NSX '08

Never pitted
Intermediate's form the start to the finish
Gear 180mph
Down-force 5 from full both front/back

F.Y.I
save tires by keeping you driver on the cool side
 
I tried the entire Super GT line-up and found out that the Honda NSX's did the greatest around Spa. Use Race Hard tires throughout the entire race, you may fall a few seconds behind with the wet track conditions in the beginning of the event, but, around lap 5 and 6 the track started drying up. At this time, my B-spec driver was about 5 seconds behind 10th place [Try to have your driver run a neutral race speed to save his strength and mental strength when he needs it the most during the last 3 laps of the race.] The entire field ended up coming in around lap 8 to take tires and my driver took the lead and held on to the finish. Though, I recommend the driver level to be around 31-33 for this.
 
Even better, any NSX or Nomad Diablo.

Front: Intermediates / Rear: Racing Hard

Skip pit stops.

You won't loose time when track is wet. No need to save tires by keeping your Bob cool.

Hope this helps ;-)
 
try Nissan Nismo GT-R #23 Xanavi/ SuperGT GT500" - 2008,turbo stage 3, 600pp
... don't push your driver so hard,don't let him under pressure...
 
Mobil 1 NSX on lap 3, i got the lead... and Overtook last driver by 1 lap lol : D

I use this also. But with my level 40. I can go do whatever and he wins always. Even with pitting he wins, Normally has the lead by 2nd lap and keeps it the rest of the race
 
I use the standard Xanavi 350Z. It's lighter and I can get more hp per PP with it than the premium Xanavi 350Z. I beat the field by over a minute everytime when i dont pit. even when forced to pit by the computer because the pit icon appears so close to pit entry that you can't unpit, I still win by 35-40 secs. I leave the downforce at default levels and get the most hp I can get for the PP ceiling. I've not lost with this car yet.

I've noticed strange behavior from my bobs with these online B-Spec seasonals. I can get to the top 5 positions and all is fine then all of a sudden my bobs start driving timid and forgetting how to take turns. They don't do this that badly offline. Still once you are in front you just drive away.

Eitherway it's at least a challenge and decent fun.....with the right car.
 
Alright, I figured why I was so far behind.. the Bob was too low level.. I've found the loctite NSX a devastating car, simply for its sheer power, along with impressive downforce.. it seemes like the Bob don't like it on cold tires unless I'm running full downforce, but does still shatter the opponents, even without coaching. My Bob went to first within 5th lap depending on the opponents, and exits the pit before the 2nd place are even in sight.

The strategy:
I rarely go for turbo upgrades unless I don't reach 600pp without it. I go for full DF, throw in about 100kg ballast and reduce power until you hit 600pp.

At the very start of the race, tell him to pick up the pace. He'll pass one or two on the straight, and keep fighting up the pack. If there's a gap between packs, pace up now and then to keep him from going cold. If he has the lead by lap 7, let him pit on lap 7-8 depending on his speed ( his level determines his speed, ergo sometimes he will finish lap 7 before he wants to pit). But if he dosen't lead by pit time, skip the pits and go the full race without pit stop. The tires will wear thin, but the others don't have the speed to catch up before its too late.

Any NSX does the trick, but I found the loctite one the most stable, and overall best for Bob
 
I did it with my NSX Mobil 01. Just putted on sports soft, never had to pit and won by a mile.
My bob is lvl 40. It should work with lower bobs aswell
 
I beat it easily and repeatedly with a fairly fresh lvl 25+ driver (has only completed 60 races) with the White Tom's Supra on inters the whole race and not pitting. I had to manage the driver the whole time though. I'm going to get one of the NSX's and see if I can do a set and forget.
 
Won it with The ARTA NSX 598pp with a green Bob lvl zero.
Was a bit lucky because i tried it 3 time with lvl 0 Bobs and finish in order 7th-1st and 4rth.
Dont battle for position to prevent tire wear so you dont pit your race inter.
You can increase the LSD tuning, initial torque, accel and brake for less tires wear.
