    Ahh makes sense. Thanks man.
    I am not used to flooding my Game Center with friends and have only had 4. In order to succeed I must now add :)
    Thank you very much. It's been a pain to save up especially when the ai decides to ram or slide me off road with its brainless driver lol

    We're cool. I may have not explained myself in the best way, and made you think I was "arguing", when in fact I was only trying to explain the mechanics of progressing Vs grinding.

    I'll add a note to the previous explanation: the money you get from friends is 10% of the race prize money, rounded to units of 50. If you do a cup event, and you get 10.000 for coming in first, you'll get 1.000 for each of the friends you've beaten. In a 22 car race, that means 21 beaten friends if you've come first, so 21.000 in prize, plus the 10.000 for the race. Hope that helps. :)

    Yeah. That is really useful info for me now since I have started to add friends. I have about 18 friends now and omg the increase for income has solved all my problems.
    Thank you :)

    Now I must find those high paying races and keep note on them for grinding.
    I have to admit it feels too easy now. I wish I could record my driving with zero assists and cutting those corners :)
    I sometimes feel the ai is stupid as it changes lanes blindly while I am next to him; causing me to be pushed on grass...

    The high paying races are the last 2-3 cup races in an event. They should yield more $s

    OK, one thing I'd like to share with you guys if you don't already know.

    I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that the rewards for TSM friends seem to reset after a given amount of time has passed (in the region of a week, but could be more).

    I've essentially cleared all the times to beat in a number of end events, not bothered to re-run because of the lack of reward and come back a week or so later only to find that there are people I can race against for some fresh R$ action.

    Thought this might be of use to some of the more hardier RR3 players.

    I do this every 24 hours, but I cant really say exactly when it refreshes. I do notice the same names as well, so I guess I can say that around 24 hours might be the case.

    It's less than 24h, I can assure you that. Can't be more precise, but there were times when I was able to clear all my friends on a given afternoon, and then beating them again later in the evening.

    If this is the case, I'm surprised I haven't noticed sooner. I wonder if it's anything to do with updates over Wi-Fi. Unlikely, but I've had events stuck without any new opportunities to beat people again for a week.

    Bizarre.

    I see the badges on some events, yet it doesn't show any friends I'm able to beat. It gets weird at times lol.

    Can someone explain the featured events please? I finally have a car (r35) to participate in one. But it was just a head to head race and I won 5300. Then it takes me to the pro/am super car challenge. Do you have to complete those as well as part of this weeks featured events or was it just that head to head race and that's it?

    For some reason I was expecting more with higher winnings.

    It's just that head to head race this time. It's been others.

    radical idea !!!!!

    how about making the heads up display, actually visible for more than 20% of each race !!!!

    I know everyone else, has memorized each track, but i haven't and it would be great if you could see the hud of the track, when there is sunlight, cloud, in fact when there is anything apart from blue sky !

    You will memorize each one.. There aren't too much tracks you know... Just lile 6 tracks more or less... But on some tracks you race in different sectors.. That's all unfortunately... In fact, that's the reason why i think this game looses my interest on playing it

    Ok there are races where you have to circle the track up to 5 times. Take some ginkobaloba for your memory problems. It's not that hard to memorize once you get into the game. Plus if you happen to be playing with all the assists on then its even easier. Personally I only keep on traction control. Having auto braking basically means you are barely playing just tilting your device.

    er...yeah there are lots of suggestions

    but just from a usability point of view, it would be nice to have a display you can see!

    And wait 'till you drive the 918 Spyder... I agree that the HUD should be more visible, not because of the map/positions, but in endurance races I always play with the chrono (I don't overtake when I have more than 80s) and with the 918 Spyder I can barely see the timer in some tracks.
