Also anyone notice how the cars rear wheels after you skid it up for a bit and they get too hot they stay smoking when driving ??

I think at some stage soon we should see who can get the fastest lap around the Top Gear track in a reasonably priced car. :D

Theres no "Reasonably Priced Car" from any of the top gear seasons in the game.

We can easily agree on another one though, as long as its not FWD Im happy

My Most prized possession at this point in time, its a Corvette ZR-1 with the Racing Modifications upgrade and a bit of a tickle up, has 750bhp and still have Supercharger/engine stage 1/2/3 upgrades to go, should get close to 1000bhp once Im finished with it!

As it struggles to stay on the track as you can see below ... also as all my cars, the rear tyres get a decent test :D

Lvl 21 now _b (love the serbastion loab rally challange _b ) Really loving the 900 degree wheel on here!!! you cant turn it off (make it 270 degress) but it makes for superfast smooth lines :D

Got a vyron 1218HP (gets up to 431Ks on SS7 track no slipstream), Vette, monaro, ss commodore, about 25 cars all up now, $2 1/2 million even made a drift track or two.

P.S Wish you could control the room abit better by having power/weight in minamim and maxamim settings I.E make a drift room with say Minamim of 550HP and 1500Kgs and thatll really throw the cat among the pidgins in a drift room_b

Why would you want a drift room? Driftings for people who can't drive on tarmac or didn't make it in speedway :larf:
