OK i discovered the secret to A-spec being balanced and fun:
- DON'T SPEND ANY MONEY if you can help it
your natural inclination is to tune the shit out of these cars... so you can win... duhhh. but no. if you do that, then 1) the races are no fun, because you blow away the competition and 2) you will be hurting for cash

anyway i've gotten back into this and i am having a blast.. finally went back to the VW bus challenge at the Top Gear track and i have to say that is maybe the most challenging and exciting races i've ever played on a console..
(despite the fact that in order to win you basically have to drive like a complete asshole)

Do any of you guys play Real Racing 3?
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Tuesday, 26 November 2013 18:36 (ten years ago) link
Gonna keep spamming this thread out of futility.
I'm ~33% done with RR3, it's been pretty great so far, though starting to get slightly repetitive and the next class seems to warrant a huge jump in game$ that I'm not sure corresponds with the prize $ but I could be wrong. I'm still playing freemium style with $0.00 of my own $ invested despite being tempted up the wazoo. Good game! Best free game I've played on the iPhone w/o a doubt.

this is going to be a nuts post. in quar i've been playing a lot of GT sport. a lot.
i've become a very picky connoisseur of fan-made liveries, but NOT i repeat NOT the faithful replicas, tough guy hot rod shit, or anime that gets all the likes. local/niche snack and liquor brands, bizarre pairings, odd tributes and other personal fixations *while still looking sharp and perfectly track-plausible* are my shit. i have a collection of hundreds of these things now. if ILG isn't interested in these i can't imagine anyone else on earth is either!
