B spec was in GT4 like chris says its good for an edurance race you can go away and get some lunch and just leave your driver to do that work for you but going what chris was saying seems its abit harder than that this time

nah check my message a few pages back... it goes into items... Essentially if you buy parts but dont fit it, you can use it on any car which is fair enough, you can stock pile soft racing tyres and then fit when needed to certain cars.
I also found the trick with bspec is to tell him to REDUCE pace... to go faster
My guy is setting his fastest laps and best overtakes while he's calm as a hindu cow... If I told him to overtake or increase pace he'd just wheel spin up and go off. So from literally the start of the race, I keep saying 'REDUCE PACE, REDUCE PACE'

Apparently the proper nurburgring nordschliefe is unlocked after the AMG Driving Academy (intermediate.) 
why not just make it available from the start ffs..
After working on my bspec driver for a while I could imagine it would be quite fun on a longer endurance race e.g. nurburgring with loads of cars... trying to keep him balanced ... pushing hard enough but keeping safe, ready to make a pass when needed

I just did half the AMG driver academy in some old Hitler Barge it's quite decent, I can never master that banked corner though  how are you supposed to take that with any type of speed?

You talking about the carousel?
You brake before entering it, and dip the left front wheel in first, then maintain a speed around it on the banking... then hop out the other side.

Just turned mine off.
Loading times are silly
Froze on me twice
AI are crap, bake way too early, I'm beating fast Mercedes in my Corolla AE86
Car tuning is rubbish
Track selectoin isn't amazing, where is the 'ring and Top Gear?
Online is amazing though
Rallly physics are fun
RWD is fun
Night racing is great
It has its ups and downs. Its addictive though.

Loading times are silly - if you were plugged into the net last night yup, or if you didnt install.
Froze on me twice - again if you was plugged into the net.
AI are crap, bake way too early, I'm beating fast Mercedes in my Corolla AE86 - only crap on braking they are good eberywhere else.
Car tuning is rubbish - its not focused around lots of parts, its more focused on setting them up propperly
Track selectoin isn't amazing, where is the 'ring and Top Gear? - you need to unlock them first, highly annoying.

Do you even need to ask? Look at the state of that, looks like GT2.

personally i think the game is awesome so far, it has its bugs which i am sure will be ironed out, but there is a whole array of things you can do on it.

TBH if I have my TV set up in Cinema Mode then change it to Game Mode it would do the same to any game. That's never a direct comparison above. Not a chance.
