Should I buy a 0km Bugatti Veyron? or a 171km Zonda C12S 7.3?... hmmm. I found a 0km in the used car dealership, I don't know what to do.. (I currently have a Veyron, but 0km that's awesome!)

Anyone have any tips for completing the FGT Championship? I'm not too shabby at the game but even I have a hard time staying in first place and not ending ass forward in the FGT.

The only tough event is the Monaco GP circuit - there it's tough to catch back up if you make a mistake. The rest you should be easily winning - some even lapping the rest of the pack (especially for tracks where you can take short-cuts over the grass!).

Tip: if you find the FGT or X2010 too fast then change camera to the highest view that shows the nose. That way you can see and prep for corners earlier.

Just playing with the TC and ABS you should be able to find an easy to drive set-up for the FGT.

I'd do the Zonda. For me, the 7.3 has been elusive, while Bugattis are always popping up.

What the hell does it mean to have "paint chips"?

I have built myself a sweet Vette. And at this point, I'm saving credits for the $250cr race mods available in the repair shop.

Mind ya'll, I'm not doing this B-spec thing and just putting the game on and leaving it on. I don't even know how to do that. I'm just racing as time permits.

My Vette is black, and I have some paint chips. Does that mean I can start painting it?

paint chips are what you get when you buy or are rewarded a car. it 1st asked if you want to get in said vehicle and then it says you have recieved said color blah blah blah.. when you use them to paint a car though they are removed from your inventory of paint chips.

i have a Z06 with the race mods on it. idk if it was worth the money imho.. i didnt hurt my bank at the time so i didnt care..

Bspec is very easy. same races as Aspec. you should check it out one of these days.


Now i have a question. when overhauling or rebuilding an engine.. to what state does it overhaul it to? Does it bring it back to a brand spanking new engine or to the state of which you bought it? i mean i still do them no matter what but just wondering..

^no; after a while HP is lost no matter what you do. My RB X2010 has over 50,000 miles on it now and it's permanently list at least 30hp.
