I think the bigger question is why do you NEED 19 Nascar cars?
I don't want them, when I get home from school the ones I can trade are being inventoried and I plan on giving them away for free. By inventoried I mean flip-flopping them between my accounts to get them in ticket form so they aren't held by the one a day rule.I think the bigger question is why do you NEED 19 Nascar cars?
I won it pretty easily, but it was very exhausting, especially the Nurburgring 24h circuit in the rain. Trying to drive a car with almost 1000hp that weighs under 900kg and has worn-out tires around the hardest track in the world in the rain isn't what I would call "relaxing" (I was still 1:10 ahead of 2nd place by the end of 3rd lap ).
BTW, I won the Danny Hamlin FedEx Toyota Camry. Which one did you guys win?
Ironically, I wouldn't have the patience for it. There's no one car I just have to have anyway, I like driving the regular street cars mostly, or seeing how far I can tune them.Also, how many people on here, including Topgearfanatic, are doing the birthday exploit? I sure as hell am not; I'm trying to do GT mode in the most honest and realistic way without cheating. It's actually pretty pathetic, don't you think? If I need money or xp to get to a new level, I'll just keep doing a challenge that pays well with xp and credits until I reach my goal; this "exploit" is actually pretty lame...

Well it's pretty lame repeating the same event over and over, no? Especially when it's usually in a car that you could drive to victory with your eyes closed. Haven't played for a couple of days now because I'm stuck at a point where i need over a million credits to get a sports prototype to move on and I don't really give a shit about doing events I've already done. This shit never happened in previous Gran Turismos. Never wasted a minute of my life in b-spec in GT4 and I can't be bothered to do that now to get the Furai.
The only reason I did the exploit is because I was stuck in the same corner, needing so much money to get a car I only needed once but not being able to afford it. That corner is frustrating because it forces you into B-spec where the idiot can;t get past the ai because he is just following their line and drifting needlessly around. I did it only to get out of that corner and move on with the game, nothing more.
Hey, you can play the game however you want. Personally, I looked at the prize cars that you get from B-spec and I would much rather win a car with some effort rather than doing challenges until I have enough money to afford a certain car. This game was designed for people to play A-spec and B-spec simultaneously, because some of the cars you win in B-spec can help you immensely in A-spec challenges. The Furai was a HUGE help for me and it was very easy to get. I am being VERY careful with my money to see just how efficiently I can go through the game. Others, on the other hand, just don't have the patience and will simply spend all their money on a car, then complain that they don't have enough to buy a different car that's required to progress through the game.
EDIT: and most importantly: check the tires! There are tire restrictions for each race event, and you want to make sure you use the best possible tires (mostly sport hard for the lower races). If you don't own these tires for the car you're using, the system will automatically choose the next lower class tires you possess, which usually is some comfort crap. Good tires however help your B-Spec driver greatly.
