Thought I'd take the initiative and start a thread for Drag Racing... If a mod could pull the threads about drag racing out of the Essential Android Apps thread and dump them all in here, that would be good :)
 
I keep racing a guy called Error:840 lol...

My car progression was Golf, Supra, M3, 599NR, Koenigsegg, Venom :) - that 599NR is a beast isn't it!! Wish I'd waited before getting the Koenigsegg as just after I bought it, the dev updated the game with a Zonda R in there!!! Damn him!! lol

I'm just slowly upgrading my Venom now, so if I see any of ya in there, I'll probably loose as I'm not very modded :(

My username on there is the same as it is here :)
 
***DESPERATE POST***

My battery died while I was playing this earlier and when I turn the phone back on my game data is gone!!!!!! I'm back at the start with no car!!

What the hell has gone on here!? I can't be starting again!! I'll cry lol

Anyone know where that might've gone? and how to recover it? (or if I could steal someone's lvl 10 save (if you can extract them...?))
 
I've had that a lot too... Bloody frustrating isn't it!!

Makes me wonder why the cars are 'identical' but they are obviously hitting a significantly higher top speed... Probably a bug somewhere in there - I can't immagine there being any way to cheat at this... (though I'm sure someone has found a way!)
 
buy a car in level 5... that'll progress you past level 4

you go up a level going by car performance not by what boss you beat...
 
In theory, if you race for long enough (a long ****ing time!) at level one and buy a level 8 car, you'll go straight up to level 8... simples

But that would take a stoopid amount of time though lol - it's taking long enough getting back up there doing it the 'right' way lol
 
It's a genuine error code... like a 'failed to retrieve username' type error as the last update was meant to fix it... not sure if someone's decided to have it as their name though LOL

-

Finally got my 599NR maxed and tuned again!! Anyone wanna give me some awesomeness in the way of gearing for it? wanna save up a fortune before I buy+tune the Zonda (wanna keep the 599 too ya see :)) so wanna make sure I win everything! :D
 
The final drive ratio is the ratio of the differential on the drive wheels, this works with the ratio of each gear to give you a smooth power band... if you move the gears up by five, move the FD up by 2.. keeps it in tune... if you just move the gears/FD and ignore the other, it'll screw up the ratios

SGWills, race online in 'driver battle' that's the best way to get cash+respect points :)

I'm contemplating selling my 599 for the zonda... how much will I need to save up before buying to to be able to fully upgrade+tune it straight away?

My 599 will sell for 838k and I've currently got 550k cash... so after 650k for the zonda I've got 738k for upgrades...

Having never bought the zonda (got the koenigsegg last time as the zonda wasn't in the game :() I don't know the prices of the upgrades...

Cheers.
 
Good God! lol $3m!? That'll take a while hehe

I've got a good setup with the 599 now, I'm only losing every 15th race or so... $7500+10RP each race... not bad... prefered the lvl10 scores of 11k+15RP but it's all good lol close enough for now :D
 
Anyone having problems with the latest update? I'm trying to buy the zonda but it's not saving my progress when I quit... it's saving my cash etc, but when I buy it, upgrade engine+turbo no matter what I do next, when I quit the game and go back in, my zonda's gone and cash is as it was before I bought it... (i've even raced with it to see if that helps...)

Is this just my phone hating me again? or have others faced this really annoying problem too?
 
Good idea sammy :)

Changed mine to OcUK_EniGmA1981

Look out for a lime green NR599 :) (or a green Zonda if it'll ever let me save the fact I've bought the damn thing! lol)

Not yet - I think they may add more later... or lvl 9 and 10 may just be to allow for upgrading from lvl 8

Sk82jack - go to settings (on your phone, not in-game), applications, manage applications - find drag racing, then click 'clear data'

Job done :)
 
I think the driver battle colours are random - although not for our cars, just for opponents I think

Does anyone else have problems where the game doesn't save progress of upgrades/cash earned?
 
What level you on stulid?

I'm approaching lvl 9 in my Zonda (only 700k more to spend LOL + tuning (:eek:))

Or I'm lvl 7 in my maxed+tuned NR599... come 'n 'av a go if you fink yer 'ard enough! ;)
