Prize car Nissan GT-R Concept LM Race Car '02 has been delivered.
[blank]
This car was awarded for winning the Dream Car Championship event. It has the #23 Red/Blue livery.
At this point, the last championship event that's longer than 5 races is the Formula GT series. I'll be using the Audi R8 Race Car, but I have to clear some disk space and transfer my older videos to DVD. This will take a while, and the races are long enough by themselves...
Here's what my Game Status screen looked like after this car was delivered:

Day 395 (1 MAY, YEAR 2): Extreme Events / Dream Car Championship / Race 10
Participated in Dream Car Championship Battle 10 (Cote d'Azur). Champion.
Time: 1'32.080 Overall Champion
Extreme Events: Dream Car Championship: Cote d'Azur: 7 Laps
Settings: R2/R2; (470 SettingsHP); Nitrous @ 30; Brake Controller 4/4; Auto Gearing @ 15; Aids 002; 16 Ballast @ 0; Everything else @ Default

I qualified P1 with a 1'35.334, 4.724" quicker than P2.
The narrow streets don't make passing easy, especially for the opponents. I manage to keep the GT-R behind, but it hounds me for a good while after its tires warm up. Other than that, this race wasn't too much problem.
I ended the practice session with 185 miles, and ended the race with 200.9 miles on the odometer.

I set the Auto Gearing back to 15 and qualified P1 with a 1'43.367, 4.068" quicker than P2.
After a horrible start, I fall back to P5 and gradually work my way into the lead. But coming out of Turn E, I go wide and bash into the wall at the worst possible point. I come to a dead stop, but as I eek my way back on track, the GT-R bashes me from behind and I manage to lead at T2 of Lap 3. It passes again as we head through the final turn, but I work my way back to P1 as we cross the line to begin the final lap.
The GT-R moves past me as we enter the first turn, but I retake the position shortly thereafter. While things are close, I manage to keep it behind me for the rest of the race, finishing with 6 bars of Nitrous.
I ended the practice session with 168 miles, and ended the race with 181 miles on the odometer.

Day 393 (29 APR, YEAR 2): Extreme Events / Dream Car Championship / Race 8
Participated in Dream Car Championship Battle 8 (Circuit de la Sarthe II). Champion.

I set the Auto Gearing to 19 but kept the Nitrous at 30. I qualified P1 with a 3'33.919, 5.613" quicker than P2.
The SpecII gets shoved into the junk as we approach Indy, and it falls back to P6. Since the TT-R can't even get to 190 down Hunaudiers, I chose to cut the Dunlop and Ford chicanes, and juiced it for the final lap. Other than some blocking, there wasn't much problem winning this one.
I ended the practice session with 144 miles, and ended the race with 162 miles on the odometer.

Other than cutting through the grass for a lap or two, this race was won cleanly and without problem. The '02 Ford would've finished P2, but it ended up pitting towards the end of the race to fall a lap behind. This allowed the GT-R to take P2, and the '02 Ford finished P6.
I ended the practice session with 114 miles, and ended the race with 127 miles on the odometer.

Before the practice session, I upped the Auto Gearing to 19. After exiting the pits, I lined myself up into the path of the SpecII, which was important to make sure I could slow it down. I would push-draft it the whole way around, and eventually the other Ford came around.
Towards the end of the hot lap, I backed off before the end of the final turn and hit the juice to pass it on the exit. This would be the same strategy I'd employ for the race.
I qualified P1 with a 1'21.081, 2.351" quicker than P2.
I upped the Nitrous to 50 to make sure I could get the extra oomph to pass out of the last turn. I kept all other settings the same, and won the race in similar fashion to how I ran the practice.
I ended the practice session with 99 miles, and ended the race with 113 miles on the odometer.

I gradually work up a lead to around 4 seconds, but I go wide for the exit of Turn 13. This sends me into the left side wall of Turn 14, and I give a good chunk of the gap back by the time the race ends.
I ended the practice session with 40 miles, and ended the race with 52 miles on the odometer.

I qualified P1 with a 1'38.857, 0.458" quicker than P2.
For the first lap or so, the field gets held up by Camaro, and I work up a 2 second gap. After the GT-R gets by, things tighten up a bit. As we head up the front straight at the end of Lap 3, I'm only up by 0.154" and have to block to hold the lead.
As we exit Turn D on the final lap, the GT-R scrubs me into the outside wall, and it's not until after wallriding Turn G that I take the lead back. I manage to hold the lead from there, but I still have to rely on blocking as we approach the line for a narrow finish.
I ended the practice session with 22 miles, and ended the race with 36 miles on the odometer.

Day 386 (22 APR, YEAR 2): Extreme Events / Dream Car Championship / Race 1
After purchasing the TT-R, I headed to the Tune Shop for a bottle of Nitrous ($5000) and some R2 Tires ($11000). I then headed to the Extreme Events and went up against Lineup #3.
...
Participated in Dream Car Championship Battle 1 (Opera Paris). Champion.
Time: 1'19.752
Extreme Events: Dream Car Championship: Opera Paris: 7 Laps

Please refer to these track maps when looking up Turn numbers/names ** Special thanks to AMG @ GTPlanet.net for the hard work put in to generate them!!! **
I qualified P1 with a 1'21.259, 3.327" quicker than P2.
This gap was mainly due to the fact that the Nissan was stuck behind the Fords for the practice session, as it ended up being quite a tight race. Most of the other entrants weren't part of the lead pack, but the GT-R was hounding my tail for the latter part of the race, and nearly took the lead on the final lap.
But I managed to stay off of the bottle, and won with a small margin despite some slight wall contact.
I ended the practice session with 3 miles, and ended the race with 16 miles on the odometer.

Abt Audi TT-R Touring Car '02 purchased.

I bought this car for the Dream Car Championship, the DTM series, and the TT OMR. I'll also be using it in a few endurance races to help wear it down, making it easier to get 200 point offers in the DTM. It costs $550000, has the #9 Blue livery, and is a really nice car to drive "out of the box".

I qualified P1 with a 8'09.673, 28.645" quicker than P2.
While I managed to run a much quicker hot lap than the Z, most of the 2nd lap was done on orange tires. This gave it a few opportunities to make up some ground, especially after putting a wheel in the dirt out of Pflanzgarten and going wide on the approach into Schwalbenschwanz. There were a few other off-road moments, but nothing intentional and nothing too bad.
I ended the practice session with 257 miles, and ended the race with 284.6 miles on the odometer.

I wanted to lap the Fiat by the time I finished the race, so on the last lap I did a bit of wallriding and crash-turning, and tried to use the bottle where I could. Unfortunately, my front left tire was a little beyond orange, and I couldn't catch up with it in time. I also made things worse by trying to wallride Turn F, which nearly spun me out, and I hit the "invisible" wall out of Turn L and ended up in the sand as I approached the final turn. Other than that, this race was handled without problem.

I qualified P1 with a 0'47.138, 3.129" quicker than P2.
During my previous runs, the Z would go the whole race without pitting. Because of this, I chose to use the bottle early and cut through the grass out of the first left hander.
But as I start the 8th lap, the screen puts up a message about the Z pitting. When I viewed the replay, I found that the Z went too wide and smacked into the pit lane entry wall. This stopped it dead, and when it tried to recover, it ended up pulling into the pit lane. While in the pits, the INTEGRA passes it to take P2, but the Z manages to work its way back into second before the race ends.

Day 377 (13 APR, YEAR 2): Extreme Events / Polyphony Digital Cup / Race 4
Participated in Polyphony Digital Cup Battle 4 (Tokyo Route 246). Champion.
Time: 2'00.296

I qualified P1 with a 2'01.663, 6.762" quicker than P2.
I wasn't able to lap any competitors for this race, maybe if there were another lap, or if I would've used the bottle I would've. This was probably the closest finish of the 10 races in the event, as the Z manages to make up a lot of ground along the straight, and I still have a lot of work to do through some of the turns.
I ended the practice session with 89 miles, and ended the race with 105 miles on the odometer.

Day 374 (10 APR, YEAR 2): Extreme Events / Polyphony Digital Cup / Race 1
I'm not particularly proud of using the RAM, but it's still a 200 point candidate for the Polyphony Digital Cup, even after loading it up with power. I went to the Tune Shop and bought S1 Tires and a Supercharger, which turned out to be more than enough to beat out the Z.
One problem with this event, mostly with the first lineup, is that the competition is really uneven. The Fiat and Peugeot are bigtime laggards, and the Z breaks away significantly. I confess to being impatient in trying to find a more evenly matched lineup, which might've allowed me to run with closer-to-stock HP, but I gave up and just went with what I had.
...
Participated in Polyphony Digital Cup Battle 1 (Twin Ring Motegi - Road Course). Champion.
Time: 2'12.271
Extreme Events: Polyphony Digital Cup: Twin Ring Motegi - Road Course: 6 Laps
Settings: S1/S1; Supercharger (469 SettingsHP); Nitrous @ 35; Aids 000; 0 Ballast
A-spec points: 200
Prize: $20000
Please refer to these track maps when looking up Turn numbers/names ** Special thanks to AMG @ GTPlanet.net for the hard work put in to generate them!!! **
I qualified P1 with a 2'16.132, 5.949" quicker than P2.
I'm up by more than 4 seconds after the first lap, without using any grass cuts. Towards the end, I wanted to make sure I could lap the Fiat, so I cut through Victory at the end of Lap 5. It turns out that I didn't need to, but whatever. This race was won easily, and I finished with a sizeable gap to the Z.
I ended the practice session with 21 miles, and ended the race with 40 miles on the odometer.
