I tend to lose all my models because I forget to stack up on calendars and I run out. They all get pissed and leave.
I got 5 skill levels yesterday. I'll try to get 5 more today... Then I'll start going up in the rankings.

I just about to get to level 11... It takes 50 races to go up 1 level, after you pass 10. I just find 2 guys I know I can beat and race them in turn until they start declining.
I'm sure they hate me for that. :)

I tend to spread it out over about 10 to 15 guys, so none of my victims gain too much "free" experience. Another thing I like to do is victimize entire "crew's", get's em good and mad so they spam race me back and then I gain "free" experience.
Still trying to figure out the formula to stealing or carjacking. :wacko: |

| I guess that would be a good idea, spam a crew that has many guys in your range and really piss em off. Like race each guy to the point of his car breaking down, 30-50 races a piece should do it!! hehe. Frankly, I'd be happy if someone stole my car right now, that way my net worth would drop and I could actually win some races. I went for money too quick, now I'm just trying to get rid of it. |

um...im confused
why am i able to buy CAMSHAFTS & PISTONS for my rotary??? |

Ahah! That's funny. Maybe you should send a support ticket.
I had 800 IM, I worked them for 5 credits and 400 left me! What the hell is wrong with them! They were 91% happy. Dumb chicks.

| LoL, well maybe you've got a rotary like the mustang dude, he had high performance pistons and rods in that!! |

I think their might be a glitch, check your pimp factor, mine used to ride around 400, this evening it was at 86 and doesn't move. |
|

| Well I just took my models up to 3800, had 25000 calendars, worked them for 12 credits, and lost all of them. That's pretty lame if you ask me! |

GLIIIIIIITCH
i JUST noticed that LAST nite my bank roll was around $2000
i have close to $60,000 & i have been offline since last nite.......
how the HELL did that happen???
time to use it all up!! :D |
|
|
| ManHunter |
hey, same for me! I logged in this morning and I had 55000$...
MY pimp factor is really down the drain. Each time you lose IM by running out of calendars, your pimp factor goes down.

Ditto! Now, my 86-93 mustang is fully pimped out. And it sucks. What car should I buy? What about a crew? Can I join someone's crew? :)
What's the quickest way to make some ca$h?? :)
I find it hard to believe that a car with 486hp and 137 handling gets beat by a Civic si... and who the f*&*&#$ bought all the fuel? |
|
|
| ManHunter |
Ask PraxRX7 to join to v8less crew. No more fuel, but I stacked up before it ran out. still have 40,000 units.
a Civic si can get up to 1500hp, and it depends on your driving skills too.

holy crap, Chrome Dragon, what happened? you're at 400,000$?!?!
MH |

Hehe, I told you I had to get rid of some networth. I sold 820,000 calendars for a grand total of $0.
At least where I am now I can actually beat some of these guys, and when I'm offline I don't get spammed by guys worth 5-10mil. I had it up over 3 mil at one point, but it was all from pimpin the ho's, not from racing, that doesn't help you in the end.
I know how to kick ass now though, so watch out next game!
Chromey
P.S. My networth is like 400k, my car is like 360 of that. |

i AM going to steal this damn Civic Type-R!!!!
tried like...4 times, barely escaped 3 & was caught once
I WANT A FREE HONDA!!!!!1
:kill:
Can I mod my car any more/differently?? i find that modding/tuning is the most fun....racing is BOOOOORING
time to go steal some more (btw, because of my many recent attempts, i just upgraded 5 stages of car security & added insurance HAHA) |

This game would really be cool if they could fix their bandwith problems and their reliability problems. I hope next game will work better.

I have finally skill 16. "This driver looks unstoppable"... yeah. I still loses races though. :)

i got level 16 last night, great fun, specially with a 1500 horse supra :D
also, gold is good, the 3600 dollar tires alone make it worth getting :) |

I am at level 14...
But my car got stolen...luckily I had insurance and lots of calenders and still had some left over import models...
So I bought a Jaguar...souped it up to ~1500 HP and ~500 Handling...
valcrist stole it... the bastard... |

I tried stealing his car about 8 times. couldn't do it. So I stole all his IMs and all the IMs of one of his crew buddy. Not that it's really hard to get more IMs, but I can't figure out what's the trick to steal a car.
MH |

I manage to steal a car with my crap account... It took me about 50 tries and getting caught 7 times, but then I scoped it out for 75 credits planned it for 100 and boom had the guy's car..
with all the fines i got from getting caught the car just barely evened me out, even with that $50,000 mystery bonus that everyone got.
I'm still not sure how those most wanted guys steal so often....maybe it's like driver skill builds up with experience? |

I don't understand how I can loose against a guy with 5 or 6 skill levels less than me. How much luck is there in each race?

How do you know he is 5 or 6 skill levels lower? You mentioned earlier in the thread that you can also see how much horsepower the person is putting down, where? |

When I list drivers, I only challenge drivers who are currently racing (in the status column). Then the info page on the driver will mention something like
"This driver is an amateur" level 0-5
"This driver looks like he knows what he's doing" level 6-9
"This driver can definitely handle his vehicule" level 10-11
"This driver drives like a pro" level 12-15
"This driver looks unstoppable" level 16+
When their status says "dyno" the info page will tell you approximately how much PR they have.

Someone race me! I'm at a lowly level 3 with a Corvette Z06, $140,000 in cash AND a stolen Accord Euro R.
So, why is it that when you steal a car, you don't get their mods? This guy had headers, rims, exhaust AND turbo... but all I got was the damn car. Did I take the time to take off all the mods before I stole or what? Sheesh... :( |

Damn, I thought one became a god when he reached level 20. But there's a level 21! This means you can go up in levels forever... crap!
I sold my car and bought a Saleen SR-R Race car, with all upgrades at the max. About 1960PR & 660 handling.

I'm on level 24, and I'm losing about 1/3 of my races... But I got fed up today, after being home invaded 4 times, losing 17,000,000$ so far.
And I'm leaving for Calgary tomorrow for 4 days so... I'll try again next round.

How do you get so high? The game is starting to be a yawner... I'm getting denied at almost every race... :( And 37 home invasion attempts and NO successes... bleh! :( |

I spam race everything with wheels. :) Except for the Lotus.
I'd be in the top 300 if there was no Home Invasion crap. The game is still pretty new, I think it can get better with some fine tuning to balance it a bit better.
