I need my GT5 players to give me a spot of advice.

I am Level 11 A

and Level 0 B.

I have literally like 3 cars, lmao, and I have 97,000.

Almost every race for A-Spec Amateur and above requires totally different cars ~~ and they all need to be upgraded.

MY B-spec driver is a sack of asshole.  What do I do?

I've sold every car.

I bought a 58 Fairlady so I had something for Japanese / Classic races

and I have a Mazda MX-5 for FR challenge.

Both are sitting round 280~ HP.

I have no level for B-Spec because my driver drivers like a handicap.

But like, if I want to advance in the Amateur and Professional circuits, I need like a different car for each race.

Like, is there any mode where I can use my MX-5 every race? lol

P.S I will once I get on, thankya sir.

the key, which you know is to get cars that can be used for multiple races for both A and B mode.
now they do use the same car types, but your Bspec driver will not drive as well as you (or as dirty as you may), so dont skimp on things like weight, suspension, and tires.
with a low level driver you will generally need an over tuned car for him to win.

for extra money do the special event races, which usually do not require your own car.
also, save all the cars you win. they often come in handy.
ive used the dome, a tvr 91', lubo gti, hommell, vitz. , and the nissan mm-r cup car to all win races for me which saved some cash.

pm me and i can let ya borrow something to get some higher wins

Yeah my driver came in second with a heavily tuned MX-5 on the FIRST race, but the issue was the tire grip, and hes hot headed . I messed up picking my starting B-driver :(

So the special events like the 3 seasonal ones or?

So i bought the murciellago super veloce vs 395k and i tried to do the world championship at lvl 14, seeing all these cars just smoking me? wtf? I thought 670pk was awesome, even though he kinda sucks when you need to brake A LOT before a big turn. I drive automatic.. ;p

i also see a bugatti veyron smoking me in the start off, i didn't even knew u could buy those. Where do u do that lol?

these events:

tho the order and lvl reqs are different.


as for drivers getting hot, off the start use overtake, then set their first couple laps to maintain pace, or pace down until they build up a lead and cool off.
i have 3 drivers, levels 10, 5, 0 and i chose a very cool, very hot, and center for my drivers. just to see the differences.
