Good question, I think if you do it via the garage it will stick.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Cool beans, thanks guys
So experts, which car should I buy? I need to get something for Gran Turismo All Stars and Like The Wind. 4.5 million credits available.
Ah brilliant, thanks. Seems Corvette ZR1 is the way to go
Finally got my hands on the X1 and its errr...mentally fast.
So I'm incredibly shite with the Nascar event. I can barely finish the first "last two laps" part and when I do finish I'm 7th or worse, when I need to get 6th even for bronze.
How did you guys do the historic cup??
I used the Shelby '66 fully tuned which can be won in a B-Spec (can't remember how), but its a tough two races with it.
Is it bad leaving the game paused for a day mid race?
I have done similar things a few times without a problem but you never know what could happen....
I'm not upd for another 110 laps tonight anyway.
Is there any point keeping the proper shit old cars like the Germany ww2 vw?
I can get a hundred grand for it. Or do I need to save it for later?

You need it to platinum the thing if you're interested in that type of malarkey.
As in get every car? Including all iterations of every model?
Going for a spin in the X1, I'm actually nervous..
It's a jet fighter! feck ME!
36 seconds off the bronze time in my first go, you really need to learn both the car and the track for this challenge, especially for a novice like me but my God. My God. What a machine.
Trust me, there is NOTHING it compares to, the F2007 is positively pedestrian compared to this beast. Oh, God it's so so so fast. The acceleration, the grip, the brakes, the cornering speed, everything about this car is just on another planet. feck.
Leg-End: please tape a lap of yours doing it properly, I'd love to see it done by a good driver.

Same here, on Daytona anyway. Though I haven't played it much of late. I can just about keep close enough to slipstream the other cars but then I just smack into the back of them as for some reason they seem to break heavily at the corners.
How do you even get the X1 car?
When you get to level 30 you can enter the X1 challenge where you get to drive it. On level 40 you can buy it from the dealer for 20 million.
Nascar is utter utter shite.
I didn't even realise new challenges/dealers appeared once you hit certain levels.
Think I'm only at 21.

I don't have the challenges unlocked yet, I traded for mine
But the best I would be able to do is a video via phone which is shabby.I don't have the challenges unlocked yet, I traded for mine
I saw some footage on youtube, I had to check the clock running on the screen to see if it was fast-forward. It's mind-blowing. On Suzuka, I think he took the tightest corner at approximately 140kph.
By the way, can you use it to race with or is it purely for gathering dust like the F2007?
You can use it to race, I traded for it now so the B-Spec endurances wouldn't be such a grind on the lap based ones. I'm gonna be using it for the Endurance ones too when I can, its such a beast it actually makes them half fun.
Get all bronze in the challenges and you will have one.

You get one for bronze too? That's all the motivation I need. It's gonna take a while though. I feel the most difficult part is trusting the car to go THAT fast around a corner without braking.
Yep, if you get all golds (a real challenge i hope) then you will end up with 3 different X1's. I just did the Laguna Seca 90 lap endurance race lapping a consistent 49 seconds a lap

Maniac. I've started the 1000km Suzuka race now in my Minolta. Pretty boring in the rain.
13 seconds off on my second go at Monza. It's doable. More so than I thought when I first tried the car.
Gold at Monza! By 4 tenths and even then I made a mistake on my second lap, the exp gain is brilliant, I went from Level 30 to Level 32 just through golding. I know the other two will be harder though, so head down for those now.
What car should I use for Like the Wind?
Corvette ZR1 (C6) '09 Race Modified and Fully tuned.
Well the Seb Vettel X Challenge can say goodnight

Do you know what exact tunings and mods i have to do?
From GT Auto you Race Modify it, then buy all the best tuned parts available and soft racing tyres. It's gonna cost about 700K in credits and its still not easy with that car but once you win them you get the Minolta race car which is basically a great car to grind some money in.
Tuning setup taken from elsewhere.
Race 1 - Road Course - Daytona:
Transmission: 380KM/H
TC: 5
Skid Recovery Force: On
Active Steering: Off
ASM: On
ABS: 1
Be careful in the first turn. Crashing into opponents will make your car spin. On lap 2 through 5, brake before you get to turn one (right after the finish line). Be careful in sector 1 and start of sector 2. Try and brake in a straight line. This may not be an easy race for some, but if you're careful, it should be achievable.
Race 2 - Superspeedway - Indy:
Aerodynamics: Front 35 Rear 60
Brake Balance:Front 0 Rear 0
Transmission: Max Speed: 480KM/H - it's the highest setting
Keep in mind that you have to let go of the accelerator when cornering (more in turn 1 and 3). No need to brake. You probably also has to block one or two at the finish line. I also suggest turning off all aids in the 2nd race.

I think I boned my Audi a little..
Is the damage redone? Looks a lot better than what I've seen before.
I saw a guy lap Nurbürgring in 3:29 in an X1 yesterday

Leg-end: If you have any spare X1's I wouldn't mind borrowing one
I have a spare X1 sure, looking for any rare cars or a chrome paint for it though.
