Its required for one of the races at Beginner Races. Those are only races I didn't pass because I can't find right car. I have over 30 cars in my garage, some new, some old, some expensive, some cheap, but none of the works. What cars did you guys use?

Redstar use a used Suzuki Cappucino and trick out with some parts. Improve the handling especially. I have already completed begginer mode and almost Pro-League

It might be easier just to pass them in GT4. They're not hard at all. I have all 4 GT games and GT4 is easiest one.

Just pass "Stars and Stripes" in American Series, you'll get really fast Camaro, spent another $150,000 or so on mods and from there everything should be easy.

One part of racing I really hate is Japanese Series where you have to race Japanese cars from 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and so on. You just can't find fast Japanese car that old. I think I spent over $200,000 on one Nissan from 1970s and it still was really slow. Same thing happened in 1980s. So from $400,000 I went to $0.

Do you have problems with your Ford GT braking too slowly compared to similar cars? I tested it out and it takes about 100m to brake at about 125mph. Other car's can make it in about 3/4's that some even 1/2 that.
I tried everything and came up with the conclusion it is the way it was programmed. It's a bummer because you need to brake real early to make the twisties alright.
My Mustang GT Wins me everything though, even the supercar champs. It has over 1k miles now

Did anyone tried those really long races? Like 24-hours race. If you win you get $1,200,000 and McLaren F1 (that's what I heard).

Do you really have to drive real 24-hours?
