After building up funds on a 2nd account, I'm working on a Trueno.

With Illswyn I'm still working on the CRX, trying to figure out how to improve handling, and uh...power, duh. Still in the mid-12's with terrible 60' times.

Changing tire pressure doesn't seem to do anything but hurt my times. Went up, down, front, back...wasted a bundle and ended up back at 36/36 and 8/8.

Game is getting boring spending most of my credits working or getting funds, and not much time racing. In fact...everyone I have a chance against declines, and anyone that wipes the floor with me, waits forever then accepts.

Just like any other online game, nobody wants to lose, so nobody wants to race unless it's a sure win.

I have to upgrade my user level to get into where I want to be. But I have alot of fun kills under my belt. Haven't lost a single race forever. It's fun to snipe off Porsches and whatnot with a POS CRX. Funny how life imitates art.

Fuck me in the ass, my car was just stolen when I posted that. This stealing shit is stupid as hell. I had a LVL 5 security system in my car and I know that it would take 500/500 credits to do it, so the culprit is some jackass with plenty of money, experiance and credits. Somehow, I don't like this game much anymore.

I tried it but I think I'll stick to Nitto1320, its more enjoyable to me because you actually get to race the car.

5 5 doesnt do dick. I bet people put all possible 400/400 for it...thats how I stole some guys CRX...oh wait (no, that was last round dont worry)

I personally wait until I can get enough to buy level 10 before I buy the car, and ALWAYS spend the 5 credz to refill before I leave for the day

Easy for you to say.

How much does level 10 security cost? Do you know? Because having not played before, I know *I* don't know.

I've had my car stolen between working and dynoing. The time between the two was less than 30 seconds. It's not as simple as filling up before you leave for the day, you have to keep doing "safe" tasks immediately after ANY other "unsafe" task, or kiss your car goodbye.
