I've won quite a few myself. Being that its like a real endurance race between me and my B-Spec Guy. I run, then I pit, he take sover, he pits, then I take over. It works quite well.

Yep, the ring also looked very narrow at first, but now it seems just normal! Check the videos of the ring, and you'll see it's not that different!

My guy fucking sucks ass! He couldnt win it so I had to do it
well after TT's b spec testing thing I thought mine did too.. but then I realised he generally sucks more if set over 3 aggression
Yeah when I let that "bitch" race I put it on usually 3 or 4 but I thought it would be ok if I put it on 5 since its a fucking oval you know? Maybe it was my pit stratergy? I had to pit in every 10 laps. I won though by like 4 laps. IT was hella challenging.

Another quick question....

I'm saving up for the black cars, but have now got 5m spare. I want to buy a decent car, so that i can progress through the game (i don't have any seriously quick/competitive cars atm). I need something similar to the R92 etc....

What car is a decent buy for 5m Credits.... the BMW V12 LMR.... etc.

Thx a bunch... i lovethe GT4 section 8)

Damn thats gonna be a bit though. I really havent driven the LMP cars yet so I dont know. Maybe an R8? Or try winning the Toyota Minolta Racer.

Here is the US prize car list. Just look around and see a good car and try and enter that race and win.

Okay I've completed every ENDURANCE race except for Le Sarthe 24hr II. I'm using my B-spec driver for this because I don't have time to race for 24 hours.

For some reason I can't seem to beat Le Sarthe 24hr II. For those of you who won this race what car did you use and what kind of setup?

Thanks.

Only one way to go if you ask me....Audi R8....It will do the job nicly and then some......
LOL.... no way

I went for the BMW LMR and it's a hot car. Almost as fast around the ring as my R92CP, if i could only get the setup right

Any LMP should do I suppose? Make sure you invest in the SUPER HARD RACING SLICKS! They are like 20 grand but WELL worth it man!

No problem. I think the reason why Ferrari , Lamborghini , and Porsche are NOT in the game is because of Liscenseing issuies. EA owns the rights to the liscense's for those cars and will let other game makers such as Forza use them becuase they probably dont like the PD team for some reason?

I think its a price issue, EA does not own the only right to use Ferrari and Lambo in their games. Remeber EA is just a publisher, most games are made long before the devolopment teams contacts EA, or when the publishers bid on a game.

I think someone as big as Ferrari asks for mucho $$$ to use their name in a game.

According to the 5th Gear review, it's a priicing issue. Apparently Porsche and Ferrari charge too much.
