Formula GT takes some practice to get down. Extreme late braking is the key, as well as being smooth and on the throttle ALL THE TIME.

Nascar is all about drafting, which I am finding very difficult with the controller. And if you get bumped and spun out one time it is over.

starting to get the hang of driving the redbull car,not quite clean but manageable just turning w/o gassing is fine since even then youre going 100ish mph had to take a break from actually playing the first enduro race in aspec,15 laps was my limit and i had to take a break lol!!

NOPPPPEEEE. the FGT in endurance races is a big help, shaves down the time for high lap races.
A-spec of B-spec? in B-spec let your driver go up a few levels and you'll do fine.

Damn that sucks. I usually try not to hold the remote. Right now I have Bob in an FGT in the GT World Cup series. Just destroying the comp, so I can surf the web instead.

Yea, my wife would do the same thing. Actually right now she'd wake up and yell at me for cursing so loud and waking her up.

It's a easy way to make money and cars. I was at level 38 when my PS3 crashed.

Yea the ps3 used to be in the bedroom. I even bought a headset to be quieter. Finally I just bought a flat screen monitor for the office and moved it in there.

Yea got a decent amount of money from the gt cup series race. Running in the fgt, he had no problems and I didn't need to babysit him. Just sucks you can't go to far away cause the races end.

Bob is having trouble with the professional series italian race. My near 700hp lambo wasn't cutting it apparently. Came in second the 2nd time around. Hoping I don't have to go buy an enzo.
