    Lol, I actually have 1 extra tank, 5 tuning kits and money for the nitro starter. And I still haven't collected the 6 extra tanks as the reward from the car collection yet. I'm just waiting till near the end so I know what time to aim at. I also don't like watching my rank slowly drop. I'm also beginning to think that time was a small fluke. I can only get 1:19:200 now but with some errors

    GL really need to do something about the room for better racers, i hate those newbie where they just purposely block ur way prevent from having a smooth start. Lower ranking cars should start behind higher ranking cars, as we can have a smooth start(which is very important)
    Bro chill man! I'm sure u can earn back the points, i encountered this kind of incident before, last night, i was positioned 2nd and got a -10 out of the 4 racers. Anyway, u can't leave us!!:(

    Yes, I have been asking for something like this. I am giving up MP as All I get is Swervalots doing their demolition derby and breaking at the starts, the cars can be ranked 150 points higher than my mini but none of them can drive.:mad: If I get a competitive race with a decent driver in a mini with a 1700 ranking I don't even get any points for a win and may loose 12 points for coming second.
    Its total BS. Could anyone explain how the rooms are organised as I am going to set my ranking to a level where I get the best level of competition. I remember that at 1600 to 1700 the rooms were the most competitive is this still the case?

    I believe only few people still playing this game ferociously!
    Even my 12 yrs old son is a little bit nervous with that lobby issue.

    You are from the resistance, my friend. :)

    The Silver Lighting is easily the most annoying, over-used car in this game and by faaaaar the shittiest to drive.

    If by some miracle I saw this car in real life I would most definitely at least take out a window or puncture a tire. To get even for all the frustration it had caused me in this game..

    Congrats bro!! So that's it for us, we can sit back and relax right? I really do not want to do anymore of Nevada reverse LOL

    Honestly, Gameloft remove those 2 hackers that are in the top 2 spots of this cup and the ford gt cup. Its sooooo fu**ing annoying seeing them there. Like its so obvious they are hacking.......

    I can't wait to get my hands on the Jaguar. It's such a nice car irl. If the hackers are removed in 4th and your 6th right? That should be good enough till the end of the tournament because the only people who will work to get a better time are like Delorean , stuparu, and those hassan clan. As long as I'm below 20 by the end I'm happy lol. In thinking anything below 1:16:250 will be good by the end!!

    Well congrats. It seems I won't be getting the C-X75. I'm down to one extra tank, so I'm not willing to risk it...
    Or I could just pull a 'Tuatara', use the tank and win the car on my very last try :p

    I will be 7º (I did 9º), but as you say I'm happy with get below 20 at end hehe
    If I win this car I will have got 3 of 4 cars since update, still I'm disgusted because I couldn't play enough for Chrysler ME 412.

    Thanks, really tight top20...

    I knew I should've played for that mustang. I would've gotten it. At first I was like screw this game, the update is the stupidest thing ive ever seen. Now I'm like but the cars, I want them.... Ugh Gameloft please fix what youve done and go back to having tournaments where the number of cars given away was at least 500. Everyone had a good chance and it was then all about getting the best time for fun and not worrying about winning or not....

    Yeah, that's why I'm considering pulling a 'Tuatara' (AKA going full YOLO and use my last resources to win the car). But I'm also focused on other cars, such as the Henessey Venom GT. This is why I want to use my tanks sparingly.

    Edit: wow, I'm losing my spot on the GT tournament very quickly. Now I'm 'forced' to try it again.

    Edit 2:

    To some extent, yes it was. But the slower ones had the hard time. Now even the fastest ones are involved in this.
    Now lemme tell you the story behind that 'Tuatara' thing. I'm warning you: it will probably sound like a uncontrolled, not worth considering rant, so if you're not interested in read those, scroll to the next comments.
    Now, I tried really hard to win the Tuatara in that tournament. I already spent 600k on it. I wanted to give up and buy the car when it would come out, but I realized I already paid too much, since I didn't want to grind that much money for it. Then I tried again, and again until the spot was mine. Know what happened to my last double credits? It went down the drain, all for the car. When I got my spot on the rankings, did I feel good? Yes, but it was short lived. I paid too much money and I was facing a huge gap. Then, someone comes and tells me the Tuatara stats weren't what was on paper. I spent over 1M, just to race in a lottery car that wasn't even worth it. Now, you're making us do the same thing, but with boosters. It's draining all the fun from TLEs, especially with the new cars. The only worthwhile car IMO was the Mustang, and it's going to face loads of Survolts anyway. The Chrysler, while having good stats, has lower than average nitro to back it up, and I'm not mentionning the lottery factor. The GT has godawful stats and the C-X75 is outclassed by the P1 in terms of handling and nitro duration. I know the effort that is put while making a game, I know that you need money for it. But if the consequences of your needs are removing the fun from the only thing that still was fun in the China update, you're just ruining everything. I'm no De Lorean, who has amazing skills. I'm no hacker, who has no shame. I'm just playing the game for fun, and know what was fun with your game? Competition. Having a worthy opponent with the same car or similar in ranking is what I thrived for. Now I'm forced to play with lottery cars or Survolts, and that's just plain lame. Not having to worry about rewards, but about that guy who just beat my time by 0.2 seconds was a good feeling. Now I'm always checking the leaderboards to see whether I have to retry or not.
    Please GL, if you have any consideration over your customers, fix things so that both you and us can be happy.

    TL;DR : stack of updates ruined the game's fun parts.
    Sorry for the long post, and for the rant. I had to vent this :eek:

    I was bored so I downloaded the game also on android on my phone. To my huge surprise:
    - €1,79 for the credit doubler (24 hours)
    - €1,79 for the double tank (4 hours)
    - 16,000 credits for the tuning kit (8 hours)
    - 6,000 credits for the nitro starter (2 hours)

    I would feel pretty screwed over if I wasn't playing on an American ipad. €1,79 is $2,43. So Europeans get to pay 250% ($0.99 v$ 2.43) more than Americans?

    That's pretty shitty
