Just had a look through and I'm about 90 millions credits off owning all the cars. Really need a few good daily rewards to help me out.

This is the set up I’ve been using to get the 345,000 credits in the Blue Moon Bay races. https://youtu.be/NlTCAVXgVss

Just don’t hit anything and you’ll get this too.

I use the 997 GT3 fully lightened, with power to get the N400. Everything stock bar a minor gearing tweak. About 50% clean race rate as I've not learnt the AI yet and the blue flags make it even more unpredictable, so I'm more liike 280k a race on average. Shame the prize money isn't higher online.

The AI does change from time to time but not by much. Another race where I’ve gotten over 300k credits is the race directly after at Dragon Trail. It may not be as short a race as Blue Moon Bay race but very enjoyable. I used the Alfa 4C Gr3 or 4?? road car on racing super softs.

I think if I wanted those cars that badly I'd just buy them, aren't they 80p or something?

@viggy you'll need to change your settings if you want people to add you smile I did a bit of qualifying in the Mini and got bored pretty quick, did a race and groaned when I realised I had 7 laps to do, unusually for me it looks like I'll be in the group cars this week.
That was my feeling when the mini was last featured. I’ll definitely do the Gr4 race at Dragon Trail.

Did you mean changing my settings on the PS4 or in the game? Sorry for sounding like a moron.
Checked my PS4 friends settings and adjusted them so I should be able to be added. Pvig73.

Cheers bud. Accepted as I was logging off. Was doing the Professional premium Monza race in a tuned LaFerrari and was making silly mistakes and was shattered after I eventually won smile

Is that within the Circuit Experience? I'm going to retry those again as not tried them since the new tyre model was introduced.

Yeah..circuit experience, I'm hoping the new tyre model is slower! I have a feeling it's not smile

The new tyre model is quite bizarre. In the driving school section of the campaign event, I can destroy some of my original times but in others I can't get anywhere close.

I've had a go at all three races today, they've been pretty good, the GT86 race gets spread out pretty quick, first one I did I was the only one who pitted smile I used the Ford in Gr3, It was not popular with the 911's, we were significantly slower in the corners and on the brakes. Finally managed to roll the little Fiat, had it on 2 wheels a couple of times but today it went right over smile

Are there any details as to what the changes are? I'm finding Gr.3 at Suzuka really slippery compared to previous. Offline there's zero grip now and if you go onto run-off areas it feels almost like you pick up dirt on the tyres and suffer a lack of grip into the next braking area/corner. Currently about 1.5 seconds off my previous best. Makes the game a lot less accessible than it used to be.

That's exactly what I found although I did find that the Gr4 cars had more grip as did the road cars.

I will do the GT86 race and will use the shifter as I can change faster that the paddles on that car, although the shifter isn't as precise as I'd like it to be and can hit neutral when I'm blatantly in a gear.

I prefer the latest tyre model, I find it easier when the cars move about a bit, although it's not made much difference to my lap times, still that 2 secs + off the Aliens smile

Trying to be quick through the first two sectors on Suzuka is tough as fk. I lose > 2 secs through those sections alone. Cannot get it smooth enough.

Z28 is streaming some daily races from Suzuka, he mainly uses the 911, he's in the 59's, he leaves it in 2nd through the esses and then flat in 3rd up to degner, might be worth a try.

I put an hour into it last night and knocked half a second off with an opt. another half second better (so down to 2:01 against a historic PB of 1:59.4).

100% positive a wheel is worth a chunk of time on this combo.
