A spec points is all about bragging, the b spec points, you win a car or cars after accumulating a lot of points

i've gotten to the point where i can win any race i set out to actually win... and for money, not much is easier then then the 200 laps @ leguna Seca in any car (f1/R8/Speed 8/Toyota GT1/any group C car/ supercar w/good setup) do b-spec on 3x speed, and finish the race in well under an hour... $200,000 + 69 Gulf GT40 = +$750,000 = EASY MONEY

nos doenst help the AI... and if you mess up, and use it too judiciously... well, its gone too soon

just because im only some odd percent done doesnt mean i want to 'complete' the game... as i said, the replay value isnt what makes the game 100%.

I B Spec-ed, split the time between my brother and I. Took about 10 hours @ 3x fast forward.

I think I ran all the 24 hour races with different cars. The Bentley Speed 8 was a good one, the Sauber C9 was good for some, but limited by the 5speed tranny, the CLK GTR was actually what I ran most of my endurance races with though. It's not ideal, but it gets the job done against the enduro AI.

As for strategy...I usually run a stint on my own, do a pitstop, see how far ahead I am after that and then either continue into a second stint or let the computer take over for the rest of the race, checking in occasionally to see how my "driver" is doing and whether or not he needs relief. In B-spec I use level 3 most of the time because it's nice and steady but not too slow and on 4 a good chunk of the time in the cars I run my "driver" seems to catch the grass and spin.

Black r92cp? I had black r320gt1 and toyotas black racer but I didn't find that one. But normal version is very fast car.
I didn't run this race. I will run it this weekend but I will try it with Saubar c9.

^^^^^
one week to get the 'black' race cars in the used market... i think you need 8,000,000 or so to get all of them; they are only in the market for "1 week" game time; and come on day 700, 1400, 2100 etc.
