How much money have you got? I only ask as I would rather have a tuned up S class golf for example, as apposed to a standard S class car of any kind.The difference is chalk and cheese imho.I could tune up a golf for example and send you that and it would beat almost any standard S or A class car.So, do you want a car tuned to A or S class, or are you just after standard non upgraded cars?

Maybe you should tell me something you want to try, or a few and I will tune them up and send them over if it helps you out.You can then remove the upgrades to drop them down a class or add them back on to up the class?

I think the real problem is (apart from the fact many would suggest you should just keep playing and winning money and cars), is that it depends how you play as to what you will like.I don't mind the VX, although it is a twitchy bugger, but I enjoy playing with all assists off and tend to use online tuning guides to set any of my favorite cars up.This can help a great deal, so something someone else hates may be a great car in someone elses hands.You can easily win races in huge great American cars for example once you get used to them, but others wouldn't touch them with a barge pole and will suggest they are rubbish.

All good advice there, but I don't personally see the need to spend what would be quite a lot of credits on a getting a low spec car and bolting loads of power to it, but then again, I don't touch the tuning setups on my cars as every time I do I only make them go slower! hehe

OP, as you may or may not have noticed, we ran a PH <B700 championship and IMO those cars provided the best racing I have ever come across. All we did to them was stick on all of the Race Spec handling upgrades, Slick tires and at max, One engine upgrade! I'm sure that can be done on quite a low budget and online there are loads of B class races all the time, mostly with fair racers!

I can gift you over some cars as well, is there anything specific?

No don't get me wrong, it is fun!

But givin the OP was complaining about crappy handling I would have thought it better to start with a high end car and maybe add only a few bits to it instead of having a 600HP FWD car! biggrin

But as I said before, I am terrible at the tuning element of the game and find it difficult to drive any of the cars I have took from D Class up to S Class without having horrible under/oversteer problems! hehe

Sorry, yeah, I see what you mean biggrin

As for tuning, the majority of my cars are left as they are, I only did the odd faves to see if I could improve things.The online guides I have used are relatively simple, you punch in some numbers from your car (fwd/rwd/weight etc) and it tells you what to try your various settings on.Despite knowing what most of the settings mean, I certainly didn't have a clue what I should or shouldn't try! You can also download other peoples setups too from the scoreboards if they have allowed it, that can help too.
