Just posted in your thread, I'll give it a go.
Well if you like I'll buy one, I can't sent it until 12am. But I'll get you one in white and I'll even chuck in some soft racing tyres?
Car sent
Hi Guys, does anyone want to trade? I have a Mclaren F1 GTR Race Car '97, cost approx 3.7 mil, plus I speny a further 1/2 million on "overhaul engine" and 36K on soft tyres. I am flexible on swap cars but would like something of similar value or better ??

my psn is sfox85
Cheers, thanks dude.
So far I have:
Ford Focus Rally Car '99
Lancia Stratos Rally Car '77
Mitsubishi CZ-3 Tarmac Rally Car
Mitsubishi Lancer 1600 GSR Rally Car '74
Nissan 240RS Rally Car '85
Subaru Impreza Rally Car Prototype '01
Toyota Corolla Rally Car '98
Just picked up a Ford RS200 Rally Car '85 from the UCD.
I worked out that it actually cost me more than 800k to buy and upgrade that to compete (all weight reductions, engine upgrades and turbos cost 100k+ alone) - I think I virtually bought every upgrade as I found it had snap oversteer under braking so wanted some bhp advantage to avoid having to rerun races...
First seasonal I think that its probably best avoided...

I'll give you my left nut for that.
In all seriousness I've got pretty much any car or cars in my garage that I'll trade you, if you're interested? Or... I can try and save up and buy you something from the dealership.

It's easily doable with Sports Soft tyres, FC transmission and stage 3 turbo. Set the gearing to about 90mph and be as smooth as possible around the course. Only brake in a straight line and never use full brake force - this is made easier by the fact that you only need to brake for two corners: the final hairpin and sharp right hander after the steep downhill about 2/3rds into the course.

I actually found that the most fun race out of the lot
Found braking gently before the couple of problem corners cured the snap steering, around most of the track it handled like it was on rails, was pretty surprised.
Slammed mine as low as it would go and stiffened the suspension up, geared it for 100 ish and found myself bouncing off limiter still
Yea I did the same thing. Found that 102mph for the gearing was best, you'd occasionally hit the limiter but only on downhill sections and any higher and the lower revs made things slower because of the high rpm turbo.
I still probably spent over 700K on the car though and 30K experience is barely worth it. Oh well never mind!
