It needs some wheel spacers mind, so much overhang on the bodywork biggrin
The Blista Compact needs spacers too - surprised they introduced it looking like that. Although you're probably not interested in a slow fwd sports class car which can only keep up with compacts laugh

Jim, when are you getting a PS4, eh? I'd like to make some promise to join you on PS3 but I'm not on every day currently and I'm still getting to grips with PS4.

Mine is still showing 1.03 as the latest, no update available
I thought we were on 1.18 now?

The next patch will be a big fix. I can't imagine heists will be out just yet. I would expect them to come out feb/March 2015 to give another push on console/game sales.

Seems they reset version numbers on new gen, the update released today is 1.04.
well probably get it later today or tomorrow. People on gta forums saying they are dropped in busy sessions and/or it loads quicker.

Couldn't find any $250k challenges either. Guessing they have stopped it now.

Got pissed off in a race with some randoms last night. Did about 6 races and won 5 of them. The race i didn't win was Route 68 with 14 other racers. I decided to put £10k on me to win as i had smug mode activated by this point and also had other people lay money on me to win, putting my total bet up to $15,600. The race was "non contact" which i'm not keen on but carried on regardless.

Came 4th in the end as other racers hit traffic and effectively bounced them into my path. Raged as it's hard to see what's ahead with non contact as the cars are fuzzy and does my tit's in! Not only that, i am partial to a bit of fender bending on races laugh

Apologies, I looked at 'last gen' versions. My bad.

Anyone after the Dubsta 2 which you can black out with the black badges and offset spare wheel can now find them spawning online and modded smile

Literally sit in the correct place early in the morning, then soon as the sun comes out you should get one driving past smile

I created a space for a Dubsta 2, went to that bendy road, spent over an hour (real time, so more than a day in game) waiting and apart from seeing NPCs crashing amusingly, didn't get any joy frown Going to try again precisely where you parked; I spent quite a while on the roof rather than the driveway for a better view.

If you listen on the video you can hear the exhaust backfire as it approaches, someone on GTAforum said they heard it coming before they saw it too.
Plus, Ive got the theory that sometimes having too good a view or watching an area forces things to not spawn.
My guess is that its programmed to not spawn if you are looking in that direction so they don't appear out of thin air.
Things always drive into view, I think its the same for getting your PV delivered, it never appears in the direction you are looking

That sounds highly plausible - some time ago I started deliberately looking the opposite way to where I want my PV delivered smile

I did turn off the radio and turn up the telly volume to listen for the backfiring laugh Took me a while to get gang cars to spawn reliably on the old gen but once I had done it a few times it was easy. I'm disappointed I haven't seen any modded NPC cars yet, though. I moved four Barracks in Paleto Bay before giving up the other night, no Sandking frown

So far I've found the yellow SK the easiest to find.
All I've done to get them to spawn is drive at medium speed between the cable car entrance and the customs garage.
If you see the army truck spawn into view in the Ammunition car park the SK's won't appear.
Ive seen the yellow one three times and the blue one once. As you're not going too fast it should either be just about to pull out onto the road, or it will be pulling away

My first race with a nearly full lobby earlier, was incredibly laggy - are they all like that with so many players? Nice first 3 finish though with Hughsie and Billybob - Hughsie your car was jumping all over the place in front of me and kept flying off every corner and crashing (as if you'd left or got shot), then all of a sudden you'd be in front of me again.....strange. Was good fun though, even if the non Phers did seem intent on trying to run us off the road all the time

Yeh was bit mental I kept trying to avoid Hugh flying over me then stopping dead I seearved and you dissapeared

Did have one that caught up with us that wasn't long getting shoved over the edge going onto the bridge

Was good clean race between us and a nice 1 2 3 from 19

Sorry to joyrider and co for dropping out mid race last night, had an important call I needed to take. Apart from trash talk, what other missions are good these days for grinding solo? It used to be rooftop rumble and coveted but I gather they have changed and can't be done on hard by yourself. Preferably ones that don't involve flying jets about biggrin
