I’d love to see the tomahawk get toned down, the community will self implode! laugh
A lot of new people who use it won’t be used to when they regularly adjusted a car’s performance when it became dominant in Sport!

Been using my TME tribute Evo Gr4 for Le Mans, it’s surprisingly good and fast becoming a favourite.
It will do 4 laps on map 6 with it turned up to 1 briefly to get top speed on the straights. One stop for tyres depending how wet it gets, full tank and you can blast the last 2 or 3 laps on map 1 mostly.
Strangely it’s only 5 speed even with a racing box, but it accelerates better than the whole pack, and manages 178, which is much better than a strangled F1 GTR or Zonda doing about 150.
Also, even with high RPM turbo it’s only 661pp, so no ballast or power restrictions needed.
Well worth a try!

I’d like to see the tickets based on mileage, so the more you do in a day, the higher the value that’s awarded at midnight.

Those silhouettes have got me stumped, I used to be able to work out most of them on Sport

I thought I’d get some more circuit experiences out the way as I’d neglected them since the payouts went up.
The 2nd stage of Deep Forest in the Audi R8 Evo is a joke! It’s drives like it’s on ice.
Only 5 people on my top 10 times have gold. I’m not looking forward to the full lap, but got to get this sector first somehow!

Yeah, there’s no time for you, which didn’t give me much hope for my own try!
I’ve got silver, I’m currently 0.666 off gold evillaugh

Agreed, it needs very light throttle!
I’m now down to .120 off gold, so getting there.

Edit:
Done! What a pig, now got to do it again for the full lap…
It’s the only test I’ve had to turn on steering assistance apart from the S10 licence

I got gold on the full lap after just 3 tries, it was actually very satisfying going from hardly being able to keep the thing straight to getting a clean gold lap.
Just shows that when you think it’s impossible you just have to keep at it!
So picked up 1.4m for that, and then got another 1m from a 4 star ticket biggrin

One million credits for the 800PP race at Spa, it is an hour long though
Is that including clean bonus?
Thing is, doing Le Mans twice takes an hour for 1.6m

Spa is excellent! It makes a great alternative from Sardegna and Le Mans.
Racing through the night in very heavy rain, coming back to a dawn finish it never fully dried out again.
The raindrops getting caught in the headlights looked awesome!
A comfortable win in the 787B but very enjoyable.

That photo was taken on a very well lit straight though, but I get what you’re saying.
Edit: thinking about, I put the exposure up a touch too

You have to paint everything, then go to paint again and it will show all separate areas. If you click R3 on an area it will highlight in blue which sections it covers

Yeah, same in Sport.
You could always find a decent carbon fibre decal and apply that to the areas, or if you’re just using a normal paint colour “paint” the whole thing in carbon, then use decals to cover the rest.
One huge square applied on the roof and stretched with angles and depth to max will cover the whole car in one, then do the same for another bits apart from the exposed carbon ones.

I still don’t own a tomahawk, and have no wish to.
Agreed some races are hard without it, but I’d rather take a hard fought lower place than a ridiculous win

I honestly never felt that, from the day of release I’ve pretty much bought the cars I wanted without having to resort to constant grinding. Yes, I don’t have all of the huge price cars, but the game is here for years, there’s plenty of time to get them in the future.
I don’t understand everyone seems to be so desperate to get everything instantly, what’s the rush?
I certainly didn’t pay decent money to finish every bit of the game in under a month

There’s an option somewhere to enable you to skip conversations.
Quite why you have to enable it I don’t know, surely they have just had it at the bottom saying hit circle to skip!

Anyone know what's on the roof of this? Trying to make a Kaliber Focus.
I thought about doing the same but then couldnt be bothered to make the decals so did a tiger stripe one instead!

Just finished this, based on car 962-007 from the 87 Le Mans Sprint spec livery
