fck this game just keeps disappointing and I only managed to play 5 minutes of it before my TV crapped out on me, now I'm just sittin here reading about you guys playin it lol

This is what the game looks like? And people talk about how great it looks? There are pretty much NO lighting effects at all on the world!

Oh wait that's prologue... If the final game looks this shitty.. then wow.

None... you can only choose wheels for "premium" cars but there are only like 30 choices which are really just 10 choices in 3 different colours each... it sucks lol, I think you can custom paint them though

The trick is to draft A LOT.
The first 2 corners you do not need to break.
Maybe the second one for a tap.

For the second corner go the left side of the 11 place car and immediately try and cut the 10th place car on the right side. You ll end up in the middle of turn 3. Exiting turn 3 you will be right behind the 8th place car.

Draft the shit out of the car because you will need to pass the 8th and 7th car or they will block you at the hammer head.

after the follow through is the tricky part. cut the grass a tiny bit and just tap the brakes for like half a second. you will be at 4th place. BE VERY CAREFUL because if you touch to much of the grass ur disqualified or if you slam behind one of the cars ur disqualified

after that its straight forward. I got 1st place on the last corner on the last lap. won by .5 seconds I believe

I'd rather the van than this car: 1944 VW Kubelwagon. It has 22HP! WTF am I supposed to do with that? Plus it is a premium car - seriously, why did they waste their time on this vehicle? At least it was worth $73K to sell!



On, and the 1958 Subaru 360 with.... hold on.... 14 HP! WTF! Even with all the performance mods it will only have 50hp!

I don't know why the handling is so off, I know the car is light yet the Elise is supposed to be nimble on the track, not breaking the rear end loose all over the place. If I time my braking exactly with an AI car ahead I cannot brake in time, the AI cars brake/corner much better. I'd blame my driving with the controller for some of it, yet not this much.

It seems like they took the handling of the go kart and applied it to this car.

I picked up a 70s Ferrari, 70s Challenger, and 60s Camaro from the dealerships - then upped HP and stickier tires.

None of the dealers nor the user car lot sell a < 69 Japanese vehicle! WTF! How do I win one? I was excited when I got the 58' Subaru until I saw the 14 HP!

Also - where do I get a fucking truck? I assume I have to complete some of the earlier races and win one?

I'm getting this game in a couple of weeks, but I heard there is no damage effects except for minor stuff like in the Need For Speed games? Is this true...?

damage will only be significant on the 200 premium cars...and only apparent as you level up.

the other 800 cheaped out cars will only appear as scuff maks/scratches.

K guys the only thing I know about the TG test track is I got first place with the VW van so thats what probably got me the track in my lists... Also the Lotus one was pretty hard too took my a good 30 minutes of swearing b4 i got 1st place... I usually stick to the races untill i get all gold... So far the amg special event is pretty tought to get gold.. I also bought the Ferrari Italia thing sounds sweet.. Need to make more money again since i blew it all on the ferrari.. I wanna hear with with a better exhaust which is only $10G away...

yo guys i just read on IGN


apparently the graphic can be a lot better when you go into

OPTION> Hardware> Screen/resolution or sth and change it to sharp



suppose to be a huge difference


downside MIGHT be frame issue tho, this is not confirmed
