Re: Tuner trials

@GabeLogan100 Hey, yes, maxing out super and hyper cars is cash intensive, and always has been. But there are a couple of things you might have wrong:

i) Tuesdays Fortuned is not removed! Until you unlock tuning, everything works just like normal, that is Fortuned on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. After unlocking tuning, there are actually two cash events, one is on Tuesday, you get up to 50k $ and tuning points, while on Thursday you get your normal 75k together with useless VPs. And on Sunday, you get both, which means in total you get 25k a week more.

ii) black parts and scanners - yeah, that is a bummer, takes ages. But it is an addition, really. That is, if you get a car to 7* maxed out state (fully golden), it is about the same PR as before. And you can take it even higher, though it takes a lot of time and cash. If you are into maxing out your garage, then you are in trouble, as you'll have to add several month per car. But it does not interfere with Campaign gameplay, or rather, it lets you skip some of the steps required as sports and super cars can be taken higher (even without those scanners).

iii) New SE (not Fastlane) does not have replayable races during first couple of days, but they will be there later. Discussed elsewhere.

    Thanks mate, I was hoping someone would say I had it wrong as it's just stupid! I have well unlocked the tuning tools but was astonished to realise they only last for one race after you have tuned the car! LoL it's that stupid it's amusing, but sad the same time. Yes on a Thursday I can race 2 races and get $150, then I pay 30 gold to race again and get another 2 lot's of $75 which then gives me $300, then I pay ANOTHER 30 gold and race another 2 races and get another $150! So in all on a Thursday and Sunday I get $450 but I also used to get that on a Tuesday too! Now that $450 has tuned to $150, it's not worth paying 2 lot's of 30 gold to play the races twice over just for another $100. It's ruined.

                    Even the cars you win in the Tournament events are 5h1t, not even top cars and you can't even earn stars for them on a daily basis, only when they run 2 days of races to collect a couple of more stars. The only car I have fully starred up and I've tuned and ran out of the 6 tuned races as I thought they was forever is the Mac Laren, I think I got 6 Black Edition parts for that standard of car for nothing in a update or some change in the game but I had to collect another 50/60 stars before I could apply the Black Schnell parts!

                        I've got more but they are for the cars with the 'Flag' icon so I am -re-collecting another 50 stars for my Nissan GTR-R35 then going to apply them to that. I am working on the Pagani at the moment.Ive collected all 60 stars for it and also the Lambo Aventador, Just need to win the Kooenigsegg race then collect the stars for that but jeez at this rate I will be doing that about this time next year!

               

                 My McLaren is on 1007pr altho I did have it on 1100 or something when I tuned it but alas it only lasted for either 1 or 6 races I don't know. I just noticed it was no longer tuned and my pr had gone right back down!
