Yeah, it should be pretty easy with that thing. My problem is that I'm still only level 16. It's super painful to run a 5 race championship and only see your ranking click up once.

Ok, I won the GT World Championship. Still level 16. Prize car is a Veyron, but it's a STANDARD CAR?!?!??!?!???!!!!!

Fastest production car on the planet and they didn't bother to give it a decent rendering.

Doing those endurance races on A-Spec would make me crazy. Do you get the fast-foward the time in the B-Spec races (or make pitstops)? Because the reality of the situation is that if you have to do a race in real time A-Spec or B-Spec, the PS3 will probably overheat...

hey hope you read this, how you won the inidanapolis oval event couse i just seem to don't have enough speed. every time i tried, wich are a lot i get passed by another car or 4 right before the finish. best try is 2nd place but that was 1 lucky time wich i crashed all the cars behind me but for the rest i just can't seem to keep up, i have the jaguar xj 220 lm race car. but its just too slow great handeling at the corners but as soon as i hit the straight track the speed away like crazy, even with tuning and drafting i just can't get it. plz some advise at cars and stuff, or do i need to keep leveling and get the car from the dream car event? hope you can help me.

well im not to much worried about standard or premium.... i drive with bumper or hood cam so no problems for me

and yeh the bugatti goes over 420km/h but in the corners its total c**p
example i tried it on Le Mans (no chicanes) and i cant steer at such a high speed.... while the Konica Minolta sure can....

I think the Veyron is standard so you can transfer it from GT PSP. And you can't speed up B-Spec. Also how are you getting such trouble with ranks? I'm at Level 15 already and I still only have a B license and won only 4 beginner A-Spec events. Have you done the special events?

@rfs: Yes, I've done most of the special events, I have the super license, etc. On the plus side however, I just bought an Enzo!

How good is the X1 really and what happens in the Sebastian Vettel Challenge?

How many golds do you have in licenses and the special events? If its only a handful then maybe that's why you haven't leveled up more.

I don't have too many golds in the license tests, but a lot of them in the special events, especially the NASCAR school I also have a lot of silvers in the AMG driving academy.

Hm well I dunno where I'm getting all these experience points then. I'm enjoying this game so far, especially with my wheel. I think for now I'm gonna concentrate on those licenses and specials, and developing my B-Spec driver.

the X1 is great, but first u will have to get used to it cuz everything will go so fast like ur watching a fast forwarded replay - but u will need bo bring the beast around the corner

i mean seriously the thing goes over 300k in the lesmos in Monza

the challenges are you have to beat the target time: i can tell you forget about gold and sliver cuz they are out of reach - so hard is the challenge

u will drive in nurburgring f1, suzuka and monza

the challenges are extremley hard - so u wont do it so easily - it needs perfection to get bronze - gold silver out of reach

you will see when u get to level 30, if u complete all 3 challenges with bronze then u will be awarded with the X1

i tell you for this car you will sweat
