i really screwed up last night... i had a shelby cobra i won and thought i could upgrade it to compete as it was allowed in that race ( thought it would be cheaper than buying one of these cars)

so i spent like 100K on it and it still wasnt able to keep up.... then when i sold it it didnt give me any credits... so i lost all that money and still dont have a car for that event

Win the Lamborghini Exclusive, you'll get the '74 LP400.
Tune it and you should be able to beat it.

One thing's driving me crazy - there's a little number on the race thumbnails. So, hit A-Spec - Beginner Series - Sunday Cup and there are three races. And there are little numbers on each one - mine says 3-2-2 in that order. At first I thought it was the number of cars you had valid to race that event. Then I though it was how many attempts you've had at it. It's not how many times you've won it either.

I can't see anything in the manual about it. Does anyone know what they symbolize? Difficulty maybe? Can't be. Sunday cup is piss.

Maybe it's what place you got in each race...third...second...second...

That's it!

BAHH! I KNEW that, the moment someone tells me what it is, it'd seem obvious and I'd feel stupid.

Well, GT5 just gifted me a car from the year I was born on my birthday today. It wasn't much of a give though since it was only a 1969 Nissan Bluebird 1600.

I'll give you 1 million dollhairs for it. Or carbon credits.. whichever you'd prefer.

Eric · 12-03-2010, 10:51 AM

Really, I can gift it to you if you have something you want to swap for it.

Anyone have any tips for what cars to look out for for the b class japanese classic? Last cup I need for that class, but haven't even come across any decent cars for sale that meet the requirements.

Is this the Beginners Series Japanese Classic race? If so, I used a '79 Honda Civic 1500 with a lot of performance mods to win this race.

I'm hoping to be able to snatch a 240Z or Toyota 2000GT...but no luck yet in the used car section. Did come across an old Skyline sedan...guess I should have bought that when I got the chance.

I finally found a '74 240ZG in my used car lot.
