@T10ManteoMax Just wanted to mention that the thumbnail for the Rally Adventure seasonal championship ‘Round the Benz’, shows A800 European Sports Utility Heroes as the restriction.
I did 3…but hoping this one falls into the category. Really fast for an a classer…and it didn’t handle too bad hitting that run up to this weeks pr stunt. Lots of fun cars for this week I never tuned before.
Champion: 106 919 333
Summit Racing Equipment (Red white and blue): 183 475 861
Clarion (white logo on black background): 770 052 323
Clarion (black logo on white background): 148 416 776
Summit Racing equipment (Single color for color swaps and vinyl masks): 765 383 435
I tested some tunes for the RA side of the seasonals that I thought were pretty good:
For Cráteres Secos: Land Rover Velar 109 931 425. Easily left the ‘highly skilled’ AI in the dust.
For the Canon danger sign: '10 Megane RS 250. 176 041 184. I tested a bunch of setups, and this one flew the farthest.
Since the most recent LaFerrari livery I had was still the “This is a Mustang” one, I went ahead and whipped up something to use for driving around with Geist’s tune for this SC. The striping is the metallic color-change red, as is the Ferrari logo.
Ferrari 2013 LaFerrari (Konig): 561 278 981
Geist’s tune is bangin’:
166 233 303
I was like “I’m not trying to get reported for cheating over here…”
This is incredible, new series and the problems return again. I’ve been trying to play for about half an hour, first I’m looking at vinyls and it says “servers not available blah blah blah” I get out, change cars and it stays blocked xdd.
It crashes, I start again and “invalid profile” with the scare still in my body it crashes again hahahahahaha. This game is not even normal anymore… And well, I admit that it had been a while without continuous crashes (some every few days) but losing information because the automatic save is bugged is almost daily, lol.
Had to do all three races in the Trial thanks to the teammates which only brought cars that could go fast in a straight line (if at all) but also because two drivatars in 2001 Audi RS 4 Avants were cheating. They had a combination of top and corner speeds that’s impossible to achieve in this class IMO.
In the first EventLab the AI was also outright cheating in the first lap just to drastically slow down right before the second to never be seen again. The track itself wasn’t bad but why there are curbs which you can’t actually use because of how the checkpoints are positioned is beyond my understanding.
The second EventLab was actually quite good. The only thing that I disliked were the flower pots on the track but I guess that’s something you can’t remove in the editor.
WTH was the third EventLab!?! It presumably was created for a different season which would have less plants sticking through the surface and maybe also for other cars and an other class but that doesn’t really excuses anything. Why does something like that even make it on the list?
Yeah, I was thinking season mismatch. Really odd with the plants. If I made that course I would be annoyed at my work being shown in an unfavorable light like that.
