Hhhmm I'll have to try a "hotter" driver. He's a neutral driver so that could be it, thanks

I have some mods so its more competitive (especially since the car started with 80hp and everyone else was in the 130hp range lol) but it looks like it'll need some more upgrades for him. Yeah it does kinda suck doing upgrades for a single race, but I've been doing it for the other races so why stop now lol Only thing that's making me kick myself in the *** is that all the races in A-Spec are in B-Spec. I never even thought about that and sold the cars I used for specific make/year races

Yea it sucks, but whenever the network gets back up you can just borrow my cars. Add me if you didn't already, then send a msg of what car you need to borrow. You can use my X1 for the open make races if you need to.

I came across this info today even though the news is from March. Don't know if it a repost but it looks like PD is going to release a save feature for endurance races. Finally!!!
