Doesn't it get very boring lol?

Sometimes, especially in those laps were I don't find any other car to overlap. Since the track is quite big, it can take almost 10 laps before I see any car.

Nice job lestat, I'm waiting to do the 24hr endurance races with a couple of friends so we can split up the time, sadly that probably wont happen till the summer time when I get a wheel. Right now i'm going to lvl up b-spec and do the Le Mans 24hr at lvl 35 for the nice car gift :D

 

I was planning on using the 787b for the Le Mans but I picked up a Sauber C9 in the UCD and I fell in love. <3

Thanks

When I did the 24H Le Mans race on GT4, I also did it with a friend. We split up in 2 turns of 6 hours each and we used the Minolta for it. 

Is the Sauber C9 better than the 787b, in terms of handling and power? The A.I seems to handle the 787b better than the C9

you sir..... have my respect....all of it, i did the 300k one last night, and that was mad.  I'm going to do the 24h on a red bull night in a team of 3-4 in shifts, again, all my respect, keep it up

Thanks To be honest, I really just want this to end. My wrist is killing me from the Force Feedback of the DFGT. 

Anyone trying this endurance with a wheel: Never, EVER, use the force feedback set to maximum. The bumps on the Mulsanne are enough to make your arms tired at the end of 1 hour.

Are you doing it with a wheel? What wheel?

Yup, the Driving Force GT. I bought it just for GT5

Is the Sauber C9 better than the 787b, in terms of handling and power? The A.I seems to handle the 787b better than the C9

The C9 is superior in terms of power though I will give the advantage to the 787b in handling. But I mean c'mon the 787b is a dream when it comes to handling so I dont wanna make it seem like the C9 has horrible handling, its great. Still I prefer using the C9 because its the hulk of group-c cars and it looks great. These 2 cars are my favorite cars in the game and I hope the stealth 787b makes its way to NA, I want it :(

I've yet to buy a C9 for myself. Currently i'm saving to 20M Cr to buy my second 20M car. I'm still undecided between the P330 or the Mark IV.

I'll give the C9 a try afterwards. How much did it cost in the UCD, near 4M?
