Don’t forget they have to be American as well.

Tough to call the best car once that’s added in, one of the Mustangs makes a great powerbuild at C class but only the very best/most confident would use one of those in an actual race.

Plymouth Fury and the '32 Ford would be my picks, Zip made a great tune for the Fury when there was a Rods and Customs C class event.

Edit: No need for Trial guesses now.

Ah, I hadn’t considered the American restriction. That certainly narrows down our choices.

Will probably go with the versatile Delorean.

Chevy vs. Dodge S1 SC in week 1 :roll_eyes: Viper AE spam fest.

I took mine out on Tour yesterday and beat an 8* by 6 seconds at Chihuahua. we should have a community vote on removing certain cars from the game :joy:

A lot of tuning to get done by Wednesday evening. Might have to make some sacrifices.

S1 USA is such a broad restriction for the PR Stunts. Don’t know what to choose.

S1 Camaro are eligible for 7 events, that’s where I’m starting in general

A balance pass at minimum on a few. I can think of a couple that need buffs and certainly a couple that could be nerfed a little

I did a test track for the new Vista del Mar Sprint which is in this week’s Trial. probably a waste of time, I assume we will have the new races tomorrow at some point, but it only took a few minutes.

SC: 922 433 160

I’m working on a variation of the Demon livery with a drop shadow effect. I’m digging it, but it’s a bit trippy.

I’m doing my first Shelby GT 500 livery, I think. Typical Mustang stripes, but probably prismacolor black or something else that isn’t quite as typical. Probably slap a Shelby badge on there.

I’m struggling on the Camaro. There isn’t really a cool Camaro logo. I guess I have the Gulf if all else fails, but I’d like something novel as an alternative to the GT500.

Sadly I won’t get all the exclusives. I don’t have Xbox live and can’t play online.

What is with everyone hating the :racehorse: :racehorse: :racehorse:?

How is the 55 Chevy not on this list? It’s from the same movie that made the 32 Ford famous.

It’s not hating on the Mustang. It’s hating on the [redacted] EV. It’s an old old thread from a galaxy far far away.

Which exclusives do you refer to? 40pts per week is possible without online stuff.

Just a joke that was already done to death months ago but still continues as if it’s still fresh and witty.

Only ran 1 Trial car on Vista Del Mar up to now.

Great course to drive on in Rivals but there are 2 tight left handers on it that are going to be an absolute nightmare in the Trial with idiot teammates/AI, one of which is the first proper braking zone from the start.

Did some work on a couple of the new car pack cars.

The Czinger or whatever it’s called starts out at S2 998 so about all you can do and keep it in S2 is increase the rear tire width and the track width as well as a race gear box.
Haven’t really formed an opinion on this car yet. In that regard, the Ai designer has failed

Tuned the Silverado to A800 for cross country. The rear end is a bit too lite and bouncy but that’s probably a deficiency in my tuning.
Regardless, I think it could be competitive.
Probably try a tune in it’s stock class now.
