Definitely possible to get in the 44’s with a bit more practice, the top guys were already in the 42/43’s I think?

Looking forward to some daily races at this one actually.
43.4 I think top times I know I got a high 44 in me.

Since the game was launched I’ve done the ‘daily workout’ pretty much every day. I think I may have missed 4 or 5.
I still have not won an engine. Instead I win invitations to buy cars that I already have in my garage.
I hate this roulette wheel system.
Complete the menus, one of the prizes is an engine.
Ok. Back to the menus this evening.
Arrgh! I have all the cars I need for the extra menus except the mk2 RX7. And you can’t by that until it comes up in the 2nd hand car dealership. So I’m still waiting for my first ever engine stop.

Why does the car collecter level stop at 50? I’ve been there for a while, so there’s nothing to be gained by collecting for its own sake.
Get all gold on Beyond the Horizon missions and you get the RX-7 as the gold gift car. Its fairly easy to do.

Spent just over an hour doing the glitch; 41 engines, only one 911 engine and no Mazda 787B engines. I did get 1x 1m and 2x 500k and a Porsche 917 Living Legend amongst other smaller stuff though!

For those wondering like me the glitch is shown here:

Hopefully more cars will take a swap later on.

Put together a few engine swapped cars this morning as it was peeing down outside, the Hellcat swapped MX5 at 840bhp is hilariously fast, the K20T Mini doesn't stop spinning it's front wheels even on racing softs when it's in 5th gear at 125-130mph. The LS7 Turbo engine in the S13 with 1200bhp is 100% unusable but brilliant, the 2JZ swapped GR86 is a proper weapon though.

I still need to test the 2JZ GR Yaris, GTR engined Delta Integrale and 13B engined Mk1 MX5

Does the K20 Mini become rear wheel drive?

If it doesn’t stop spinning its front wheels, probably not. wink.

The daily race at Watkins Glen is absolute carnage, completely ruining my DR and stats but still a lot of fun.

The MX5’s round Tsubuka are at least a bit more chilled laugh

I'm going to jump on in a bit was aiming to get my a rating up higher this week after Sunday night had the pleasure of racing Kimi velocini which if you haven't heard him before do a YouTube search well known dirty driver so took a bit of a hit.

You can just go the 1st and 3rd ones without doing the 2nd each time to save getting a load of the same car

I love racing Kimi, albeit on my alt account. Just treat it like wreckfest hehe Same with Luis Dinisio, but I think he’s been banned

I tested the Lancia Delta with the GTR Nismo engine and it is a lot of fun and very fast. It will hit 200+ mph on the straights but you will need to lengthen the gear ratios a little. It still handles alright and you can you use lift off oversteer to make it rotate nicely into the bends. Braking distance isn't very good from high speeds though and this is with racing softs and carbon ceramic brakes installed.

Tbf I've been on cleaner wreckfest lobbies. He was 2 cars ahead on the grid for the 3 times I did daily race c every time someone come near him or he went near someone else just see clouds of smoke and a car off on the grass. Then someone dive bombed him and sent in flying great too see. I don't get the mentality he's a quick driver too he must does it for the attention on YouTube etc. Surprised he hasn't been banned yet.

Nice one, is the Genesis the car to go for you reckon? The ones I was in seemed to be mostly using the M6 but I haven’t got on with that car before, and the rest made up of Genesis and the WRX.

After my first few races being more like a demolition derby I ended up in a better group and had some good results. Although one of them I was so in the zone battling for the lead I forgot to pit which was stupid laugh

More importantly though, everything seemed really stable and didn’t have any issues. Have I read somewhere that they’ve now separated PS4/5 users to try and help this?

Genesis is the go to. The BRZ and Supra work well round there also. I’d recommend driving something that you’re comfortable with rather than going for the fastest car on the leaderboard

Edit: Just seen that the M6 is top of the leaderboard.
