Great guide and suggestions mate, thank you!
I am wondering however if it wouldn't be cheaper/faster/just as effective to turn the Corvette ZR1 09 into a race car (~400k) to do all those races. What do you think?
It might be faster and just as effective (depending on how good you are with the ZR1) to go with the ZR1, but it's certainly not cheaper. The only real purchases that are REQUIRED are the tunings for the Furai (might not even NEED them but they certainly help), and the cash for a Miata for the roadster event which you would need for yourself anyway. Total required for that is probably just over 200,000 credits, which is still cheaper than the racing modification on the ZR1. The ZR1 seems to need a bit more of a specific tune to get it to play nicely on these courses.
If someone wants to blow a huge amount of money on race modding their ZR1 then more power to them, my way worked for me and I just wanted to share that experience so others could benefit from it. When I tried the ZR1 on the Indy course I got absolutely annihilated and I gave up on it rather fast, and it left a sour taste in my mouth for being a huge waste of money. My way does it without the huge money investment, but to each their own.
The game isn't a DDR type puzzle and there are many solutions to the various problems, this is just one that has worked well for me, I never said it was the be all end all ultimate answer.
The ****ing minota is utter crap, what the hell, any slight bit of power when turning and its gone could somebody help? WHAT THE HELL, its a bloody race car and I can put a 430 round the track quicker? what kind of crapola is that?
The tuning forum might give you a better answer for that, mine drives like an absolute dream so I really don't know, plus I'm not a tuning expert by a long shot.
how on earth do you get first with this IDIOTIC driver? i am closing to breaking everything in my room right now because ive had a few attempts to bring him to first but i cant. my car has like 260hp too... i swear to god on each corner this idiot just loses control of the car omg. HOW DID HE GET HIS DRIVERS LICENSE?????
Yeah he's a dipwad, your best bet is to use the 'pace down' command before he hits the corners he has trouble with. Try to keep his aggression bar closer to the middle than full red so he's less of a spaz.
How is it you up the downforce on the Furai?
Go into the tuning menu, and then the Body/Chassis section, and then into the Aerodynamics option. I have mine set to:
Front: 25
Rear: 50
Hope that helps!
Also the roadster I bought is actually called a "Roadster RS (NC) '70", apologies for any confusion, I'll go back and revise my original post.
