One night this week, those of us on the PS side of the house need to run some races. Partly for fun, but mostly so the lower leveled guys can unlock race parts. I'm ok with sandbagging it so people can earn gear.

 At last i could customize my sultan to a decent level. Primary: Midnight Blue Secondary: Crew Performance is not as good as i would like. I need to win more sports car races to modify it to the top. I would not worry too much about speed. Handling trumps speed any day. Competition suspension, hi end transmission, and custom tires. You will be golden. I agree. Usually a good balance between handling and speed is the key in races, that's why i like so much the Grotties. But when it comes to time trials, the lack of speed becomes more perceptible, and i would like to do the TT with my sultan. |

I've heard said from a reliable source on youtube that some cars are actually faster around a track stock than modded, because some cars do not have enough traction when power is increased.

That may well be true. I did not think spoilers and other such stuff affected car performance, but it truly does. I don't care how stupid a GT wing looks on my car... it keeps my ass end glued to the road. Same with armor weighing your car down. I go naked or level 1. That's it. |

I don't know about that, think your experiencing a placebo effect lol. My entity and elegy are both cars I only use for racing so I will remove armor/bp tires and see if I improve my time.

Doesn't sound crazy. I still don't own a super class car, so i had to race several times with stock cars against custom. I only notice the difference in long straight lines where the cars reach top speed. |

You'll see a difference. I ran a test with my Coquette... wing, then no wing. I definitely felt a difference in handling. |

I think i have a cool color for the crew, I already told the boss: BigNotch, and he said I put the suggestion on this forum. So the color: i1.ytimg.com/vi/5kuG97S12tU/maxresdefault.jpgI hope you guys like it, I already made this so don't worry about that. I thought this color looks maybe a bit party purple like in the emblem, and I think it's pretty nice! |

Are you saying we should change out crew color?
Anyway looks cool, put secondary crew color on it.
