Reasonable I guess

Think I may have had some good fortune in the trial, 3 of us in B700 35C’s, B700 Auto Union and a stock W154 but that had a pretty good driver, won the first two races but simply didn’t have the speed for the final part of the Meadows sprint so got overtaken there by the latter 2 cars.

The 35C is the most solid car but for the 2 sprints I think an upgraded Auto Union or W154 will be considerably quicker if you believe in yourself enough to drive them well in trial conditions.

4

The 4-1/2 litre wins every time. Done 3 Trials this morning and won all by a good margin but i will say that on the straights it lacks speed but if you have a lead it will win.

I completely forgot about the Bentley I’ll give it a go tomorrow, be good to have a new go-to car for any other Vintage Racer trials that come up in the future, I mean the Bugatti’s a reliable choice but I find it such a dull thing to drive, I don’t know if it’s how it’s supposed to be but I can barely hear it’s engine.

6

Half my team quit thank god. 2 of us had tuned cars.

7

I have just poised myself for another 100% Season again and when I happened to check the last few seasons my 100% are showing up as 100% on their respective list but the GOLD Card has gone from the titled Season Cards and they are showing up as 97% or 98% or 99% !

Has this just occurred with last update or what?

8

It’s the return of best starting player to be disconnected on first trial race - Elmsdon on sea sprint, that left 3 of us to deal with easy drivatars and won 3:0
So its the road racing trial in B 700 vintage racers, did try 2 options Bentley and Bugatti, similar times, Bugatti having a bit better top speed, so went with that and easily came in 1st on all 3 events.
Bugatti Type 35 C, tune - 461 825 307 (its using rally tires)
or Bentley 4 1/2 liter supercharged, tune - 880 758 322 (also using rally tires)

Moving to solo championships and lets start with fastest one - street scene with S1 900 Lambos, as I didn’t felt really creative, just reused proven car
Lambo Huracan LP 610-4, tune - 488 011 727 (also using rally tires)

Then it was time for a bit slower road racing with A 800 GT cars and since we had a trial with them, I again reused a proven car
Alfa Romeo 8C, tune - 141 649 613
or Maserati Gran Turismo S, tune - 124 948 019

So to last championship and dirt racing with B 700 retro saloons and since we got a new car fitting into this category a while ago, I used it
Bentley Turbo R, tune shared as Offroad
or Volvo 850 R, tune shared as Offroad

PR stunts as usually done with Koenigsegg Agera RS, tune - 167 849 655 for speed trap and danger sign and used Hoonigan RS200, tune - 428 155 751 for offroad speed zone.
Danger sign took one rewind, as I bounced to the left and missed the gate completely, but next go yield a new PB - you need to take this sign at an angle, to get much better distance. Speed zone took me 2 tries as I was just too fast over the jump and failed it.

Forzathon car was a choice among retro supercars and I picked Saleen S7, thrown all the upgrades on it, along with racing V12, reduced rear wing to lowest, increased front, set gear ratios and it was ready for speed trap, but first it was time to win 3 road racing events, so used my custom blueprint at Lakehurst forest sprint, code - 691 610 875, then put the pedal tot the metal and smashed speed trap at The Roman mile for 3 stars and finished with some cruising around.

Taking corners in 2CV is always fun

So that was if, hope this can be of any use to somebody, be safe everyone and again don’t forget to have fun :slight_smile: , bb

731??? it shows 728/730 here

missing
1975 FIAT X1/9
1974 Hoonigan Ford Bronco
already did the cyberpunk one

10

The #731 (in this case) car is Owens Mclaren, a one off car that only one person in the world owns (I think it was a “Make A Wish” thing)
anyway, its easily gotten by the following blueprint:

Mclaren P1 Owen: - share code:…: 989 815 391

Don’t know the creator, apologies for not giving credit to him.

11

Are some people insane lol!!!

They have already said they will ban anyone with the Owen, why in gods name would you then use it to crerate a blueprint?

Oh well, good luck to them i suppose :slight_smile:

12

I think it’s the share code to the drag race where it puts you up against Owen’s McLaren and you don’t drive it yourself. So no worries here.

Yes, Exactly. The code is to SEE the car and TAKE A PHOTO of it for the HORIZON PROMO challenge.

you can select cars in blueprints it’s not obtaining the car the drivatar uses the car

but it’s not owens car i’ve seen it in some fortunes island event before and it says no new car in shot

16

Got a tune for the Porche 959 that can do the Roman Mile speed trap. I’m gonna be honest with ya; it needs work. It will do 225 in a straight line, which is what you need for that speed trap, but i wouldn’t recommend it for much else. For best results, approach from the east.

EB110 engine swapped maxed out smashes the roman mile trap easy as anything

18

Amid Super7 shenanigans, a glimmer of hope: the AMG Hammer is fantastic. Thanks, Playground!

19

In no universe can I do that Lambo only race series. No matter the car, no matter the tune, I can’t do.it with this level of drivatar cheating. Skipped due to stroke risk.

The other two are ridiculously easy by comparison.

As per usual it’s the matter of 2 mph on the Nether zone thing, always the case with these seasonal things. Skipped due to stroke risk.

Danger zone was done in a McLaren Speedtail, one take.

Retro Supercar thing was done in an MC12 as that has the power for that speed trap…one I took all the downforce off it and tweaked the final drive…along with waiting until it stopped raining.

If anyone is struggling with the trial, try my Bugatti Type 35C tune ‘Trial Winner V2’ it’s eventually good on gravel and snow too
