I'm in. Have my dfgt but suspect I will get trashed. I haven't golded all my licenses but strangely found S to be the easiest to gold.

My wheel is clamped to a bookshelf, but it does the job :)

How easy is the S license? I've seen quite a number of posts in GTPLANET saying is the easiest overall, but I haven't tried it yet. May give it a whirl after I finish the GT World Championship. 

Pretty easy. You just have to take care of the car and don't go ramming anybody and you should get a gold almost every time. I think its just to teach you to race cleanly so you can save money in the future.

Yeah, but I found that the Lap Battles in the International Licenses do the same job, albeit a bit frustrating some times, since even if you do the cleanest race you can, if an A.I rams you from behind, you get disqualified all the same >_>.

Rome in the 512b was a true nightmare getting gold, especially since the Countach in the first place has 50 BHP more and weighs almost the same >_<

Yeh, that's easily the hardest lap battle. That Countach kept getting away from me on the long straight, then you have to take the next few corners near-perfectly to get gold!

When I did the gold, I was lucky enough to get behind his slipstream on the long straight, so he didn't get that far away from me, so in the next corner I reduced to 2nd and exited it at 140 km/h and it was enough to pass it in that next straight. 

All my previous attempts failed because I had given him way too much space in both straights, so even when I got close to him in the last few corners, his exit speed in the last corner was enough to keep in front of me. 

That Lap Battle and the first event in the Grand Tour, the Alfa Romeo C8 in Eiger, were the hardest ones for me to get Gold.
