Is everyone else exploiting the sh!t out of the seasonal supercar challenge? The last track (i forget what it's called but it's in france) you can finish the race in about 5:25 and you get 490,000!

Beats the hell out of grinding 97k every 4 minutes out of the American Championship in extreme. I hope these seasonal races stay available for a long time with the increased rewards - i'm trying to amass as much $$$ as possible and get every car on my "wish list" i've been yet unable to afford. Actually is faster to do the seasons and buy the cars then go through all the b-spec b.s.

Sounds like I'm going to have to find time to play. It's been a good 2 or 3 months since I've even turned my PS3 on.

The new British Lightweight races that have just started are excellent, first race 6th, then redid it 3rd, bit more tinkering and 1st. Those 3 races won me about 700000 credits.

I modded up a Lotus Elise 111R and crushed the competition... Too easy, but easy money as well. The last race on the Aso track is fun - that track is wild! The last corner you get air at anything over 25 mph...

If anyone wants to add me as a friend on PSN look up CarbonAlias. I am trying to get into online if anyone does, but so far haven't had the luck to play with decent players.

Thanks for the tip! The track is Eifel (Circuit). I'm running the race in my 200+ hp Seven Fireblade (Caterham), lapping at 1:12.8.

I've now made over 8 mil doing this exploit. Well, thanks to my sisters son who absolutely loves this game, he broke my Fanatec RS wheel.. got a new one and just arrived, ready to go for round 2!
Here's my current setup, at the Nevada house. What do you think?
