After some generous winnings (5-10k) i got mad and i went for shopping
I bought:
AMG VGT
Honda VGT
Ford Mustang Gr.B
Nissan GT-R Gr.B
Mazda Atenzza Gr.B road car
Bulgari VGT
Genessis GT3 (nice car to accomplish the fake V8 Supercars collection for custom races)

I completed weekly challenges in Buthurst with a nice win with trusty and fast Alfa Romeo 155 DTM (God of GT please give us the same era DTM cars)
From completion i got a Pagani Zonda R (that i sold it)

Sunday morning, here I go again onto Autopolis Short for some more test drive.

As some may noticed, this whole weekend I've been driving the CTR3 over and over. I brought it to Autopolis and got my fastest lap so far at this location. (1:10:821) Beating the previous best from the Corvette C7 ZR1 '19 (1:12:566)

The Ruf has a weight reduction 2 (1162kgs), fully customizable suspension and aero parts. Sport medium tyres were the rubber of the day. TCS 1.

I also ran the other Ruf, the RGT '16 and clocked a 1:13:239 also on sport medium. This makes it the 3rd fastest on the board. This car is so nice and fits my driving style perfectly.

Here's the replay:


Here's the onboard cam:


Ps: I'm just too lazy to use sharefactory and merge the 2 videos.
 
"I'd take the CTR3 over any Lambo, Ferrari or Mclaren in the game, any time."

@skydragon49 .. while I do have to admit your RUF is one clean machine, and personally my 2nd choice of factory rides is indeed Porsche/RUF (see below)..

RUF-02-1.jpg


.. but to say that "I'd take the CTR3 over any Lambo, Ferrari or Mclaren in the game, any time."

.. reminder:

E2-1.jpg


& while I respect the RUF entirely, i'd put my E2 vs. anytime.. yes, the RUF is glue cornering, but the same should be said for my E2, but the rebounding acceleration/braking is not even close.. LoL.. my E2 has absolutely no buisness being a "road car", but it is what it is.. so tell ya what @skydragon49 , HMU.. love your car, very nice, very Euro, nothing but respect!

@NW_Saint hello my fellow trial mountain master!

It's just an (unpopular) opinion of mine. I can reckon that some cars are better and faster than others, but I've been focusing much more on how much I enjoy driving them rather than how fast they are.

it just happens to be like that with the Ruf CTR3. And yes, I've test driven all the fast Lambos and Ferraris and.... I sold them all. Talk about unpopular opinions.... 😀

RESPECT!.. no matter the car, track, times, like me, you're a "driver", and really that's all that matters, that's what makes this game so unique, we can do whatever we want, wherever you want, whenever you want.. drive to your hears content my friend @skydragon49

.. one of these days we're gonna have to do it.. LoL!

Sunday night, Nurburgring time. After driving the CTR3 for a while this weekend, I decided to drive something slower. A lot slower.

This Toyota Sports 800 has all the engine upgrades (81hp 😅), a height adjustable suspension with a stiffer natural frequency, a 5 manual gearbox and weight reduction 1 (556kgs). Sport Medium Tyres. No aero parts. Funny thing even though it is lower on power and a tiny bit heavier, it is faster than the Fiat 500 '68. Go figure.

Just watched the GT World Challenge,- America at Sonoma Raceway. Man, I miss that track! Otherwise just ran a bunch of laps at Yamagiwa in various cars

Bought a Z4, lightly tuned it, then took it to Tsukuba for 30 lap mini-endurance custom race. I set the conditions to random, it was mostly cloudy the entire race, except for the very last two laps where it started downpouring. instead of pitting for IMs, I just pushed through it. All in all, I made 500k from that race, which 'earned' enough miles for a 4 star ticket giving an extra 30k.

Managed to save up 1.5 million from doing custom races, then got my 2 million gold reward from the Daytona TT. Bought the Maserati Spyder '54. Then got a 6-star from the extra menu giving me 500k. I then took the Spyder to GT Auto to get rid of that gawd awful 500 race number splattered across the side... but I did keep the factory red paint though. Bought some sports hard tires for it, took it to HSR for a small 5 lapper custom race. Haven't completed my mileage today, but from I can gather, this car is certainly one I will be hot lapping with a lot.

With the car having such light weight it is prone to spinning, but I find the challenge of keeping it stable is entertaining, more so if I can post a good time with ABS and TCS off and with brake balance set to 3 in the rear.

I took my blue metallic '68 Charger for a spin around Yamagiwa Reverse. Fun track, not the best of car combinations though, but it was challenging keeping the car stable during some of the turns so that definitely helped to add some excitement. It was enough of a drive to earn me the daily mileage. Oddly enough I got a 500k reward from a 3-star. I must have leprechaun luck or something. With that money I then had a little over 1.7mil so I bought the mint green 300SL from legends dealer, only to find out the thing is sluggish. I quicky set out to remedy that - Sports hard tires, sports brakes, and of course a dual "semi-racing" clutch to make shifting a small bit faster.

Now the 300Sl is a proper contender to compete against the '58 Corvette I have, which is still in its factory red - a color for the Corvette which hasn't shown up in the legends dealer in quite some time. I think the last appearance or two was in black. :indiff:

Friday night, I went back to Willows Springs and improved my lap time with my Viper. I never was a fan of the big Willows but getting to learn the track and finding time on it, has been a good fun.

The despicable wheel gave me 10K for my time.
