Anyone else been playing this?

It's ace! Very frustrating sometimes too. I've currently got a 997 that I've turbocharged and a few other mods, but I'm struggling to level up any further to beat an Alfa 8C to progress.

My times:

1/4 mile - 11.019s
1/2 mile - 15.169s

Let's see yours.

I have been playing it for a few days. Find it frustrating when I have enough money but not enough respect to buy upgrades and if you can't beat the boss you can't get respect.

yes

Have you tried racing online? One of the races is pretty easy to win, and you get about £3000 and 5 respect. When I can get a connection, I just keep doing that to get the respect up thumbup

thumbup Once you start winning races and getting cash and respect, then you can get some decent cars.

I started off with an Alfa GT which ended up with loads of power, but no traction. Then I got a R34 Skyline, which had loads of power and loads of traction. Now I have a 997 because it's pretty.

hehe No Idea where the love heart came from on my last post.

I'm stuck with the Clio at the minute and can't beat the pro race. Just need to save up a bit. Only played it during half time of the football last night.

ETA - How do I use NOS? I'm tapping the symbol like crazy and nothing happens?

Downloaded it and just started playing, due to a few misclicks I ended up seling my Golf after upgrading it, so I bought a Clio, didn't like it but I persisted and sold it as soon as I could afford an RX8.

Determined to stick with this car now... Might upgrade to the supra... maybe...

You're doing it right, but remember you only have one shot per race. You should see blue exhaust flames when you use it.

Use it wisely. If you're wheels are spinning like mad in 1st and 2nd, don't throw some NOS in!

That's odd. You've definitely purchased NOS?

I must say, when purchasing kit to reduce the weight of my car, I was disappointed to see there's no 'recline seats' option. hehe

I have an hr commute eachway in on the tube so have been playing this a fair amount my current stats are smile,

best 1/4mile = 9.949
best 1/2mile = 14.127

Total respect points earned = 792
Total cash earned = 867,391

Current car is the BMW M3 fully upgraded.

As other poster said play the game online and do the 'head to head' each driver has same car if you win its approx 3.7k and 5 respect points, do it as a 1/4 mile rather than 1/2 mile as price money the same and its quicker.

I was going to try and get the Bugatti but losing interest in it now to be honest smile

Yup definitely purchased it. Even got stage 3 I think.

Even when I race online, The Nos button is there but it doesn't do anything.. Very annoying as it's getting harder to beat races.

Just bought a Skyline biggrin

My goal for todays bathroom breaks is to get sub-10 second 1/4 mile. I'm currently at about 10.4s in my Brabus, but I think I might have to flog it and get something else.

Deleted it and started again to try and solve this Nos issue. Will report back.

Better starting again now rather than getting further up the chain and realising something is broken.
