It's been sometime, I've been practising Nurb ring with Mazda NC-07. Learn more about the corners and practise without driving line aid. Can't get the perfect spot for all the braking points yet.

Then go back to the Special event - Merc, and finish all the last two events, in the rain, without driving line. Satisfied with all silvers.

From Level 24 tickets - which will generate 3 cars randomly : F1 2007, F1 2010, or FGT
Or grind for Cr (shorter time than grind for 24-hours endurance)

Level 24 tickets - get one each by finishing either one of A-spec or B-spec (including endurance ).

Been there, done that yes, I finished both the 24 hours A-spec Sarthe and Nurburgring.
And of course B-spec 24 hours also (leave it running 24 hours with fan blowing each time, tv off, PS3 connected to UPS )
Once done that, the 9 hours Mazda ... is not that long time
4-hours Nurb becomes peanuts.
2-hours just pass very fast.

Or ... add me in PSN same ID with LYN, I'll send you a free level 24 ticket.

It's not difficult to win the "offline" events in A-spec and B-spec. Some of the Specials/License Tests are move difficult. Just use a slightly powerful car will do.
Some few harder ones are those using same spec cars, such as the Historic racing, Expert level FGT Grand Prix (for b-spec, you need a high level 30+ and experience in braking (for late braking overtaking), accuracy (else bang wall or run out of course) and hot-tempered (aggressive)). Cornering is lowest priority, since just slower cornering.

For endurance, using FGT/X2010 is an overkill and sure-win. B-spec endurance, tune down FGT to 750pp, guarantee win, even use Level 0 driver (straight jump to more than level 25/30+ with one race ). High level, but very lacking on experience. No need push the driver, just let it be.

Yes, I finished all events in a-spec (beginner, novice, ... , expert, endurance) = 1x Level 24 ticket
Do the same for b-spec = another 1x level 24 ticket

But ... I can share, you will need a lot of time. e.g. a-spec FGT championship 6 races = minimum 4 hours, each race about 30-45 minutes. If b-spec FGT, prepare 6-8 hours, more laps.
Therefore, if you want Cr & Xp, better to grind through Seasonal Online. For me, I just want to finish the game, I don't have the skill, but I can allocate some time.

Endurance, the first 4 races takes about 2-3 hours each.
Suzuka about 5-7 hours, depends rain or not.
Nurb = 4
Tsukuba = 9 (I use the same Mazda)
Sarthe = 24 (FGT without headlights - very difficult at night, but long-straight road winner)
Nurb = 24 (IINM, is R8 LMS and the car retired with exact mileage of it - keep for personal reason)

b-spec endurance is easy, just leave it running and you go sleep or do own stuff.
a-spec need to plan for holiday, 3 continuous days minimum (in my case), with no inside/outside life interruption . Cause each day will race about 7-10 hours only, with break, tapao/delivery meals, bath in between, that will eat up couple of hours.

Yeah, I did not start the 24-hours endurance, until the pit-stop suspend is available. But I already did the 9 hours Tsukuba by then, full day from 10am-9pm including break.

DTM is not as hard as the earlier Lambo-Nurb. I use Abt Audi TT-R at 570pp still can win. Going to try lower 560pp.

Welcome I was quite busy on and off last week & weekend, delay.

Can't join racing with you guys but I'm rookie driver on auto-gear with DS3 only.
Coming 2 weeks schedule very busy. First time I not yet finish the latest Seasonal Online events until today
There is a new Snow rally track in TT ?

I hit the limit with inventory items

I got about 3200 paint, hundreds of horns, maybe hundred of suits, those tickets for restoration, etc.
