FAwking BS AI. I wish sometimes I could combine GT5 and COD so when these fuckers pit maneuver you off the track I can wait for their return to that corner and blast them with a LAW or china lake for being retarded. I know it happens in real life, but at least those guys can fight in the pits after or throw their helmet at the oncoming racer at fault.

Last lap on R247 in GT champ and the R10 nosed my 787b off the track to finish 5th. Made me lose the championship(because four first and one fifth place finish is worse than 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 1st,)

That did work. After I got the car back, I now have another paint chip for that color. So you can just send and then get back your cars, and get more paint! lol

Same here, I bought that same BMW a couple days ago and I had two green chips still, even after I sent it back to you. When I get on later, I have a matte black LFA we will have to send back and forth a few times :thumbup

I found a guy that somehow got a chrome paint chip and somehow made multiples of it. He had a Veyron, Enzo, a couple Mercedes all chrome. It looks pretty neat, very fitting for the Veyron. He wanted my Formula Gran Turismo for one paint chip, fuck that.

I traded another guy my Motul GT NSX race car for an '88 Volvo 240 GLT Estate Wagon. I fully modded it, painted it chameleon blue/purple and it makes 302hp. It only goes 145mph but I love driving it, it’s smooth as shit in the corners. One of my favorite cars to lap the ring.

And I almost forgot, I heard a RedBull X1 (X2010) was on eBay for $249.99…lol. I don’t really care about having one like I used to, everyone has one now, meh.

Anyone have a '70 Plymouth Superbird they want to trade? I will trade you a lightly used NASCAR that I used in one race. Or if you have another car in mind let me know.

I fired my first driver. Guy would loop a VW bus. Guy I picked up now seems to have it down pat and can handle the 787b and Zr1 with no issue now.

Has anyone here been able to get all golds on the beginner stage of the AMG driving school yet? that’s one of the only ones I can’t get golds on(except the very first section). All the other stuff except nascar(because I hate nascar) I have golds on now. Also on that fucking Tuscana race in the Grand Tour special event(The one with the shitty Lambo) Can only manage to get 2nd and am still 5-6 seconds behind the ferrari in 1st, driving like I’m superman behind the wheel.
