Bought the 89 BMW & Delta HF from the UCD. Maxxed out the GR Corolla and took it to LeMans. Got to the 3rd lap and quit because I had to finish off Balteus in Armored Core 6. But I did drive enough to get a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🎫. I had 5 tickets 3 ⭐⭐⭐ and 2 ⭐⭐⭐⭐. I got 550k Cr total from them.
 
Did someone know when the Corrola will be available for the " public " ?

@kjb if i get 55 k from all the week tickets I'll will be happy, till now i have four 3* and two 4* and am waiting tomorrow's one .

I was happy to as well. I think I am going to start holding off to open tickets in bunches instead of opening it time I get one
 
Had some more fun with stupid oval racing with engine swapped 1000+ HP road cars. After some tweaking and tuning I got lap times down to 35 seconds at Daytona Tri oval, speeds in the corners of 400 km/h, speeds at the straights over 435km/h without nitros. :lol:

And what would oval racing be without the occasional wipeout. :P

On the Plus account, I used the Alpine A110 in a sloppy-almost-soaking-wet Sarthe grind. The 4-star marathon ticket gave a Ferrari invite, which actually was good because I needed a copy of all 3 invite cars for tuning purposes. I picked up all 3, widening the Enzo and LaFerrari.

On the GTP account, I signed up with Chevrolet for the Manufacturers Cup, bought the rest of the racing tires for both the Gr.3 and Gr.4, and did a pair of quick-and-dirty liveries as I'm in GT3.

For some mileage, I tested a few cars for the Nations Cup. Despite the Ferrari F40 being the meta car, I think I'll go with the Chevrolet Corvette - it's cheap and it's American. The parts Wheel of Despair puked up a Bore Up S that I already had 4 of.

For the cash, I ground Sarthe with a Corvette Gr.4 (not the rental). I picked up the car I should have picked up the other day - the Toyota FT-1 VGT,
 
Did some experiments yesterday trying to find best settings for Mazda lm 55 at la sarthe after @Chikane_GTR proposal.
Also i start buying the one million and over price cars and need only two to finish USA region.
Close to 50 needed to end my collection and aiming yo buy two every day.
Later ill open the week's tickets which are full of 3* cards .
Now it's fishing time , ill be back later on the day , have a good Sunday all .
 
In my happy place, spent hours working on my garage for online lobbies, mostly the 500 and 650pp collections. Then discovered that if you actually bother to click on Ranking Board in TT mode (rather than looking at the top 10 table), you can filter by PP and delete unrepresentative times; that has made testing different setups & cars much easier!
 
Today I..

Just did my super shopping spree 100M. :sly::embarrassed:

And just joined the exclusive 2.2.2 club. :sly:

So far, managed to get enough races in to buy both Porsches' in the LCD, the red XJ220, the red Skyline and, a spare '63 Vette.
Also, started the race build of the TTS.
The 911 GT1 I have found to very good at the Le Mans 700pp race without much work. Namely, just tires and racing brake pads. I don't like many Porsches but, that GT1 is growing on me quickly. Next one I get will get the full race trim and maybe be good in the 800pp races.
 
Today's 6am run > Was really productive.

@Single player mode: I golded all the races I hadn't previously. I took the Clio for the Euro 500 and the Civic for the Japanese 450. I have definitely improved as a driver since I used the very same cars and didn't struggle at all this time. Only the Alsace Championship (Clio) and 2 missions (oval and tokyo) left to gold. Then onto Menu 13.

@Sport mode: I noticed my bronze at the movie event was in jeopardy (9,90%) so I tried to improve it and succeeded (9,40% now).
 
On the Plus account, despite being dumped by Fraga on lap 13 in a move that cost me 14 seconds, I won at the Sardegna grind with the newer Mercedes-AMG GT3, mostly because Fraga had to pit a third time for fuel. The 4-star Wheel of Despair dumped a Porsche invite, which I didn't want as I'm looking for the Bugatti and Pagani invites.

On the GTP account, I cruised to a Sardegna win in the Toyota FT-1 VGT. The 2nd 3-star Wheel of Despair of 8 (and 4th of 16 between the 2 accounts) of the month puked out the low-showing 10,000 Cr. on an all-cash wheel, so I bought the Mini Clubman VGT, intending on taking it to Sarthe tomorrow.
 
It all started with a 6* from driving:
20230911_200249.jpg

Net savings: 3 Million
Well, I may as well get the VGT for engine ticket.
- 1 Million
20230911_200524.jpg

Get engine ticket: + $241,500
20230911_200954.jpg

Cash in the 5* I had saved: + 100,000
20230911_201616.jpg

Buy 4C to put engine in: -89,100
20230911_202243.jpg

Add the parts from other tickets to the Chiron:

So, right now I have a bank of 13,405, a engine swapped 4C and, all 3 Bugattis' just sitting. Now, if I sell those 4 cars:

20230911_204222.jpg

Then I gross 3,757,457 and net 2,668,375. Not accounting for the added parts to the Chiron.

Not a bad little profit from a 6* ticket. 😁

Today's 6am run > Was pretty good.

I golded the Petit course de France winning both races with my Clio and then the 2 missions I hadn't yet (oval track and one lane only) which rewarded me with the Jeep Willys. Tomorrow I will continue with Menu 13.

I didn't have time for Sport mode today. Maybe tomorrow.
 
I bought a 3rd 962, 2 RX500s. I maxed one of the RX500s and painted it carbon twill and took it to LeSarthe. Got 4 laps on FM3 with the high rpm turbo installed. It was fast once it got up to speed but kinda sluggish before that so I think next time I use I will switch the low rpm turbo and see if the acceleration improves. "Rain" came on lap 2, but I didn't have to change my tires it "lasted" through lap 3. I pitted for fuel on lap 4. This is is very gentle on tires even for some like me who is very hard on tires. Got a RX7 engine from a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🎟️
 
On the GTP account, I found that, had the weather been nice at Sarthe, the Mini Clubman VGT wouldn't be a good choice. Fortunately, it rained a lot, so I took the win and the low-showing 30,000 Cr. from a 4-star Wheel of Despair, which I put toward the BMW VGT.

On the Plus account, I ground a sopping-wet Sarthe with the Ford Mark IV. The first parts ticket since May 5 on this account gave a stage 5 weight reduction for the 2017 Ford GT. I'll take it.
 
Unfortunately today didn't go to work and wasn't for a good reason, am under lumbago situation with all what it means .
I try to play a bit but wasn't pleasant either.
Hope to recover soon cause isn't days to loose days at work .
Other than that ill try to gain some credits to minimise the cars i need and i think LCD will bring some of the 20 million cars i don't have.

On the GTP account, I collected my 250,000 Cr. for bronzing the expired time trial, then did too many laps around Catalunya in a rented Corvette Gr.3 for a marginal silver time (1:48.5xx). The 3rd insulting 3-star Wheel of Despair of 10 on this account, and pending the Plus run, 5 of 19, this month, puked out the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr.

For the cash, I ground Sardegna with the 2008 Nissan GT-R GT500. With the cash, I bought the Mitsubishi VGT and rain tires for it, intending on grinding Sardegna with it tomorrow.

On the Plus account, I went with the Lexus SC430 GT500 at Sardegna. The 4-star Wheel of Despair pushed out the low-showing 30,000 Cr.

Since I've been without a wheel for about a week and a half. I figured I'd see how I could do on the final drift mission in the BRZ Drift Car on the pad.

Managed to acquire a gold score after messing around with the controller sensitivity, brake balance and assists in about 20 mins.

DW - 4* rewarded 10k.

Edit: forgot the required GIF
