As with any FF you want to avoid full throttle in the apex. Best attack for this kind of drivetrain is full out post apex. The TCS setting is for launch control but you will still need to watch the gas from first through third or risk losing time as the tires spin; however, feel free to drop the TCS to zero

Setup for DFP.

Big Grin He-He, see post #6.

To say that I am <cough> cost effective is putting it mildly. Wink

Edited in: Keep in mind that this is GT3 results but the principal is the same. I try to complete the game by hording cash, accident free, the list goes on. Let’s face the facts here, the AI is really just to easy, personal rules add an extra touch the game doesn’t provide. Nod

thats good reading and i get where you are coming from Big Grin

however as credits are so easy to come by i thought you would want to squeeze as much out of your cars as you can?

No, it’s kind of like using the nitrous. It is too easy already so why add it unless I don’t want to add other mods to the cars, I could do that but I choose not to. Also I found it adds new aspects to tuning the cars and trying to get the most out of them.

More than either of those reasons it is just a personal preference to make the game more challenging. Like my accident free rule. If I have what would be a major accident I pit the car (over 30 lap race) or drop out (under 30 lap race). Sure it screws up my win average but what does it matter? It adds fun and a bit more challenge. I thought the game was going to have a built in system for this upon its release. Instead all you have is that dumb pit or penalty rule and that doesn’t’ even apply to the carrier mode.

A new thing I decided to do today was that after reaching 100% I will go back with a new game and let B-Spec Bob be my racer. That should be fun trying to tune the cars so he can win. All I will need to drive is what; the license tests?
