I haven't upgraded my 68 Camaro since the RM, yet, but I remembered it having handling far greater than I would have expected from such an old boat. That being said, the P4 is a bonified racing machine.
I don't see the point of the short Nurburgring configs either. I always think, why am I just using the crap part? It's not like I'm going to kill myself
Good source of credits, these seasonal events. I was annoyed when I couldn't sell the stupid Schwimmwagen (which I had to buy for the event), though.
PS: I got bored of GT5 after i did the 500 miles endurance race on indy with an FGT. Took me a little over two hours... i honestly was sitting there after 200 laps going round that track with 380km/h... thinking "what's the point?!".
Alot of the seasonals require cars that you should already have such as Nascar, JGTC etc I found the Nomad Diablo for that too! Seems like the Online Collector Dealership is a syrup nest of awesome.
Well use something more fair. I did it in a stock 787B. Pit strategies certainly came in handy as it took me a whole 50+secs to pit and the AI would lap in low 45s.
The trick to the Advanced NASCAR challenge is to turn ABS OFF!!! if you have abs on, then the game limits how fast you can corner. some sort of lame stability management or something
