Not sure think you can send to friends. How did you fairly on the Ford focus event?

 

[Flubble]

turned it on for a few quick races and heard a nice jingle bells song on the main menu

Now that one I am struggling with, the focus doesn't like going round corners much, maybe I'm trying to go too fast???

 

[rp2000]

the fiat one was easy to be fair. I only bought the filter and full trans. changed the top speed to 87 and done it on my first go after reading a post on here.

Just tried this and was 2 seconds behind 1st place

Bought the F1 car today Watching the AI take it around the 'ring gives me a headache

 

[The Running Man]

Got my first fgt today too via a trade. Can stay in first on Fuji for 4 laps then crash out. Damn

 

[Sydney]

Oh, I also have a spare woodone tom's supra '03, any takers?

Seriously, no one wants a free Woodone Tom's Supra?

 

[The Running Man]

Yes i do!

Ill even have u an online race if u want?!

Is anyone up for like a 550 GT cup or something?

I.e you can use any JGTC/GT500 or DTM or standard buy fully upgraded car with up to 550bhp? (min weight 1100kg) and limit over 500bhp to account for oil changes and standard cars that arent as fast as JGTC can have the extra 40bhp or so

 

[Sydney]

if you give me your psnid I'll send you a friend request from something like fish2000 and then once you accept that I can send the car. Got a B-Spec running right now so might be 20mins ish.

Don't know about a race, watching cartoons 0_0
I wouldn't mind a race sometime tho, getting kinda bored of the existing events and the koi-y AI.

 

[The Running Man]

Ha dpont be scared Ive only run 2 online races so far and neither lasted longer than 3 laps lol.

Is there something behind all the rx7s in the online dealership? Ate they super tuners or something?

Are there any other cars in the online dealership that are must buys except the fgt?

 

[ck88]

Yeah, whenever really. Not done a single race online so far so you can do all the faffing around

RX-7 seasonal bonus race perhaps?

My guess is its to do with the RX7 Seasonal events. F GT is a requirement, the other 3 at the bottom are awesome but hardly essential

 

[Sydney]

ok I'm up for a race, what kind of cars we going for?
Not sure I'd be much good in a LM or FGT type race atm, but I'm up for anything really.

 

[xBLiNG]

Yes i do!

Ill even have u an online race if u want?!

This sounds good to me, PSN is blingster989.

 

[The Running Man]

Okay my room is called:

Super GT 550

bring any car no more than 550bhp no less than 1100KG.

Stick to standard Super GT tires which i think is Racing Hard

Join now, room open. Max 10 ppls.

Sydney id advise a JGTC/Super GT500 or a DTM car something around 1100/500bhp is ideal!

I was looking at rx7 event and I think the car you need is from the normal dealership.

I don't want to have to buy all 3 just because I might need them in the future

Also if one is better than the other it would be great to know.
