This guide is going to show you my way of making money and experience in GT5. It allows you to gain 70,000 credits and 3500+ experience ever 3/4 minutes.

First of all, you're going to need to be level 21, so if you're not I suggest you get racing \O_o/.

At level 21 you'll unlock the race "Like the Wind" in the extreme series. It's got two races, the first one is easy if you have a fast car (Veyron, tuned ZR1) but the second one is really difficult unless you know what you're doing.

I suggest you raise some cash doing the 36k grind (expert series > turbo challenge > 1st race) until you raise enough money to buy a Corvette ZR1 and the cash to add racing mods (about 550000 Cr total)

When you've bought your ZR1, buy the racing upgrade and the rest of the upgrades needed in the tuning section (engine etc gets upgraded with the racing mod).

(If you're thinking "meh, I've got a Veyron, **** the ZR1" stop. You can't win this race in the Veyron for the simple reason that the Veyron can't get around the corners of this track without breaking)

Before you start the race, go into your garage and select tuning on your Corvette. Go to transmission and set your top speed to 242. Now go to Body/Chassis and set your down-force to the maximum possible on both the front and the back of the car.

Now, the race you're about to attempt is REALLY difficult so make sure you make the most of slipstream, it's very important. After about 2 laps you should have gained first position, from here you need to stay concentrating on the race and regularly look behind you to stop cars trying to overtake. When you finish both races in this competition (in 1st position) you should unlock the MINOLTA 88C-V LM race car.

When fully tuned, this car will DESTROY every car on the game. Use it to win the race you just did over and over again, netting you 70,000 Cr and 3500+/- experience per win.

The difference between the MINOLTA and a Veyron for example is the handling. You'll notice the MINOLTA's max BHP is around the 1000 mark which is lower than the Veyron. When trying to corner on the Indy speedway in a Veyron you will either have to break heavily or smash into the wall. In the MINOLTA you can just keep accelerating because the handling is so good. You should always use this to your advantage in all races.

The video below shows me attempting the race in the MINOLTA and winning by 15 seconds. The race took me 3 Minutes and 20~ seconds and I gained 70k Cr and 3500~ experience.

I liked the guide, but those tips for tuning the ZR1, are those for the race on the Indy Speedway or on the first race? If that is a good setup for the first race I love you because I have been having a lot of trouble with the first race, not too worried about the second race.

Any tips on how to tune a ZR1 for the first race? If the tuning in the guide isn't already for the first race.

ive been going at this race for just over an hour now and the zr1 is way too slow and it still hits the walls on the corners..is there something you're forgetting to tell us?

Is yours fully upgraded AND race modded? The race modding will drop your weight levels down really low, I think lower than you can get them without a race mod, and give you some more horsepower if you fully upgrade than you would be able to do otherwise. Make sure you have it race modded, then fully upgrade it.

I believe that the ZR1 can easily do the Indy Speedway if it is race modded and upgraded, it is pushing 900 horsepower at only 1100kg then, but it is the first race I have troubles with.

The first race is normally quite easy.
Make sure you set your downforce to max on both the front and back, also set your top speed in transmission to the max speed you think you will be able to attain on that certain track.

I ended up getting it with the Mazda Furai, worked like a charm. I don't know what it is about the ZR1, but it doesn't work for me like it works for everyone else, it's just too heavy in my opinion.

Nice Find.

in case some of you are wondering why the ZR1 cannot corner,whack some racing soft tyres on..totally transforms it

I know exactly what you mean.
Make sure, as the above poster pointed out that you have soft racing tyres in future.
Also, I know it may sound obvious but the upgrades available in the drive-train section help with the handling.
Also, congratulations

Just use an X1 for this...:biggrin:
