Just finished Formula GT in B-Spec, all I have left to finish everything in B-Spec is the last endurance race. Not looking forward to running the penultimate race 8-9 times to get there 
In A-spec on the other hand I still haven't done Formula GT nor the Nascar Challenge. Don't think I'm going to bother doing the endurance races, the amount of time needed is just silly...
Hoping for more seasonal events, they are pretty fun and usually pretty good money. Does anyone know if you earn any money on the time trials and drift challenges?

You will gain most of your positions towards the end of the straight, while maintaining a solid pace through the bends. It should take you about 4-8 laps to take first place.

Again you will gain most of your positions towards the end of the straight, while maintaining a solid pace through the bends. You will hit the rev limit just before the end of the straight. It should take you about 4-8 laps to take first place.

Wow, this one is a ball ache, but with such a low gear ratio you will overtake on the short straights and through the tight corners. I had 3rd on lap 2, but first place didnt come till i was on lap 7 but then run away with it for the rest of the race. I also upped the breaks for this race. Twice in testing, the AI spun out and caused a pile up, which can be a bit of a nightmare to come back from, but its still possible.

This one is childs play. I used the same setup as race 3 but upped the top speed. I pushed my guy too hard on lap 1 and he spun off 3 times. but he took first again before the end of lap 2. Simples

If anyone would be willing, I would love to try out an x1. I am wilson964c4 on ps3. I have had to buy all my cars... No game stop deal for the free cars. I still havent figured out how to set up multi accounts and I am scared I will lose what little I have.
Thank you in advance for any gift cars you could spare
