Nearly completed my first b-spec level 35 24-hr endurance race. I tried initially to use my stealth 787B so that I could rebuild the engine etc after for only 500cr instead of 500,000cr as with non-stealth cars BUT after watching for the first hour it was clear I was never going to win with that car. The C60 hybrid and Audi TDi obviously have to refuel less often. So I was forced to switch to my X2010.

With 2 hours to go, it's 100+ laps up (about 7 hours ahead).

Had to switch off auto pit at 10% as drivers weren't getting enough recovery time after a while. So now fuel is limiting factor.

Wonder what car I will win for thrashing my X2010 (requiring 1M cedits to repair engine/rigidity after). Probably something rubbish...

as lame as b-spec is, it's all I've been doing for the last couple weeks. Have the guy drive while I go do something else. So pointless, and 100k credits for a 4h race

You get the GT-One

And the X2010 now requires an engine rebuild as HP not regained to max by oil change :-(

Just logged on for the first time in 2 weeks, sent friend requests to alot of you guys.

If anyone still has an extra X1 and doesn't mind gifting it to me, that would be awesome!

Mayb it's been covered, but how do you clone cars? And could anyone send me a car for the supercar festival? I'm level 13 currently. Just low on cash.

Anyone hit level 40 yet in a or b spec? Just curious what you receive...

I am grinding the last (level 35) endurance race over and over but it's going to be a few weeks before I get to 40...
