thx for the info guys, so far only boght two cars to get into events, the rest are prize giveaways.

Yeah, so far I tend to want to just race with my starter car, the Audi TT. But, I am seriously thinking of taking on a Mini and doing something with that. I don't know why I am so stuck on the 'little' cars, hahaha.

Different regions get different cars, though. I know the Lancer Evo 8 or whatever it is that's very popular in class B races online is only available as a won car when you select Asia as your Region.

Different regions get different discounts if I am right. It seems to me that I have a 30% discount on all cars coming out of the US.

heh heh some nice designs.

soloredd, the small cars make sense. they get a good boost from even basic mods since there's a lot of potential to unlock there, and handling will always be better than a RWD behemoth.

Finally beat the last race in Time Trials. I've done that race like 100 times and never been able to beat it, finally beat it by .007 of a second. :)

Anyone got any tips on the very last Proving Ground race? Heavyweight car must weigh more than 3850lbs?

Ferrari 612 or Bentley continental or Aston Martin DB9, though not 100% sure on the DB9. I use the Ferrari 612 anyway

So the Chevy Corvette challenge is going to be the death of me. I have a 956 PI Corvette and I can't race it at all. Every time I accelerate, I simply do peel outs before spinning into a wall and coming out of turns, it's impossible to accelerate without swerving helplessly side to side.

Bah!! I know what you mean!! It took me forever to finally finish it. I actually gave up on it for about a week. I used to love Corvettes in real life, but that seriously made me hate them now :p.

As hobsgrg suggested, get the 612 and beef it up a bit. Be sure to get some better brakes and tyres though!

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂

      This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
