I got the sti 22b. Anybody know if it's better to use original turbo over stage 3? It's a lil less HP but I think less lag. Also is original suspension better than racing? Original has shock absorber settings able to change, while racing has rebound and bound. In any case, it's an awesome car and sounds great. It comes available used on day 289.

Wow was i thinking the same ?
I tried it with the MERCEDES-BENZ AMG CLK-GTR Race Car '98
with 999hp i was still getting whooped by the other cars 
So im just gonna wait till i get the fl car. then ill show them
I know what you mean. I used a 940 HP Cadillac Cien and was getting annihilated by the Nissan cars. I might just wait til I can get in endurance races (1.5% to go!) then I'll do the 24 hour race to win an Audi R8

the cien is too heavy. Even with all the hp its still too slow. and unless your a great driver i bet your still gonna loose with the r8. that M.B. i ran is comparable to the r8 and i got smoked. it wasnt even close. And i consider myself a decent driver

Don't you hate it when you're doing good and your tires wear out on the last lap. I got nitrous happy in the fourth lap of a 6 lap race when I shouldn't have. The zonda rocks for the NA races and is good in super car.

Geeze, that's just ridiculous! I don't feel like racing over and over and over to save millions of dollars for one car.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just havent tried it yet: Can you win overall prize money and prize cars more than the first time you get them?

Yes you can, you can either play them again, keeping your old medals and just making more money. Or you can reset it completly and win the car again too.
