Hey Folks I am new to the forum and to this game. After reading all five pages and seeing how different people upgrade their cars in different ways, why is not best to buy and install all the upgrades i.e. engine lv 4 turbo lv 3. Why not max everything out. Is it just to keep the car at a certain level are are there other reasons? thanks for the info.:thinking:

its just to keep cars at a certain level, lots of upgades make your car a higher level, which could be a bad thing, for example, a nearly maxed out car could be a very good level 6, but with that 1 more upgrade, it bumps it up to a low level 7, so you would race against level 7 which could be a lot better, as your only a low level, thanks to that 1 upgrade :)
hope this has helped.

Then the only variables will be tuning and technique and it makes it much more difficult to gain an advantage.

My M3 just did a 14.478 in a test-run, and i'm getting high 14.4, low 14.5 in virtually every run.
My M3 just did a 14.446 (9.65 for 1/4mi) in a test-run, and i'm getting around 14.46 in virtually every run.

I won't disclose the full setup here, you'll have to figure out the final bits on your own.

Gear ratios are like this:

final: 3.8
1st: 2.2
2nd: 1.54
3rd: 1.27
4th: 1.09
5th: 0.96
6th: 0.87

Just go for perfect starts (it's extremly easy with this gearing) with revs in the range of 6000-7000 rpm, perfect shiftsfind the best rpm for your gearchanges (you'll hit the occasional perfect shift, but that's not what you have to aim for) and find the sweet spot for NOS, and the 14.4814.45/14.46 will be yours :)

The car itself is maxed out and win's every 1/2mi race on level 4.

last edit:
finally installed a screengrabber on the desire, and got you a proof-pic... unfortunately i didn't manage another 14.446 run, but .449 should be ok, too :)

My new best is 14.472, but 450s and 460s are impressive.

I have a question for those people who have hit 5000 in the Pro League.

I'm at around 4850 and only earing 3 pts per race. How many will I lose if I take second or even worse, miss a shift and and come in last? I haven't lost a race in a while and I'm a little afraid to know.

What happens when I will eventually apprach 5000. Will I only be earning 1 pt per race?

At 4900 it will drop to 2 pts per race and at 4950 you will start getting only 1 pt per race.

Getting a second might drop you 30 pts.

Accidentally hitting the back button will cost you 100 pts. Doing that twice will cost you your sanity. :)

***Timeout Hint***
If you have more than one car for the level you are trying and you ever find yourself at the line in the wrong car, just stay there for 15 seconds and then just go down the track. You won't get penalized for timing out.

Yeah I have no clue about anything with cars but I love racing games (go figure), anyone know of a guide to help me actually improve my car with tuning? Or maybe a tune for the M3 and a guide for a level 5 & 6 car? I wish I had a clue >.<

e: Oh, and I see a lot of "find the perfect RPM for gear changes", how do you know what the best RPM is to switch at?

Basically, you want to keep the RPM's as high as possible for the entire race including during the launch. As you race, watch for places where the RPM's dip the lowest and work on improving those areas.

Also pay attention to the NOS setting.

anybody think the 9ff GT9-R (the new car) will be a contender to win the level 8 or 9 half mile or quarter mile? It's currently quite a high level 7 :)
if anybody's maxed it yet, or has some stats on it I'm sure everybody will appreciate them, :)
thanks.

I couldn't get it to do much tuned with several upgrade configurations, nor the new Lambo but I played with the BMW 328 (that may have come with this upgrade or O just never saw it before) and in level 2 league I have only seen one exceptional S2000 best it.
