Mines running as I type. Everytime B Spec pits though it automatically returns to normal mode. So you have to speed it up every 4 laps or so Fuck that, it'll be done by time I get home from work tomorrow, that'll do

Spoon S2000
M3 GTR Race car
Opel Calibra Touring Car thing

Nothing too hard to be honest. I raced the first lap to get a lead and took no time to take 1st place.

I'm using my Camaro LM Race Car.

Wee update. Now on lap 155 after 16 hours 50 mins. Getting a little bored but its all good. Would probably have been better with faster competition but i am 25 laps ahead of the M3 in 2nd. Rough calculation says i will finish at 2.20am.

I haven't checked on mine for a while. I got bored of speeding it up after every 4 or so laps. Decided to leave the thing running whilst i'm alseep and at work tomorrow. Might speed it up before I go to bed. Then maybe once or twice more in the morning.

Sleep when ur dead Nath. Get ur ass on an uncomfy uni dorms chair and speed it up every 3 laps and drink tesco cherry cola to stay awake. Do it like a real man haha. My god my ass hurts from sitting here on this chair for so long. Also think i am seeing things cos i have drank so much of that cherry coke. Another update. Lap 162, time 17 hours, 42 mins.

Yes Boab! Lets get this race done. Latest update is Lap 198, time 21 hours 37 mins. On bspec at x3 it still takes 8 hours so going to be a very long night for u. I am looking to finish just before 3 as i forgot to take into account all the pitstops being normal time. Argh not long to go now. Also on a come down from all the fizzy juice i drank to stay awake.

i'm not b-speccing this

What would be a good choice in car for this? I want something that's not going to blitz everything as i want it to be fair and a decent challenge.

A std corsa, theres a challange. Nah man anything as long as its a race car should see u fine. Its the BMW M3 race car thats ur biggest opponent in it so whatever you think u can beat that in. I used the Nissan 390 GT1 race car and dominated the entire race with it.

i don't want to rinse them, want it to be an even race if you get what i mean. Will get boring if i'm way out ahead.

Maybe i'll choose the m3

Ive done all 3 of the 24 hour endurances I did the Nurburgring 24 first so I could get the formula one car, it shoots all over the over cars on Sarthe Circuit 24 Hours I+II Well it did for me anyways,

All I did was leave my ps2 on about 4 hours before I went to bed, then wen I got up I just checked it and then I left it on thru out the day on B-spec, I did the Nurburgring with TOYOYTA 88C-V Race Car (MINOLTA)
if it helps anyone
