Doing the rest of the Le Mans races.
The Le Mans track is really long. Oh well, anything to get/unlock a new car. :D

I actually stopped, raced three hours of the 24h race but got bored cause was too good for the ai even on hard mode

I guess the game difficulty was just badly calibrated in longer races, cause a 3 laps race on hard level can be pretty challenging...

Lol! Very true.
But what I noticed, is that when the fuel runs out, and you have to refill, that's when everything sometimes goes downhill.

Yeah, I agree. That's why I put it to 5 laps in quick race.
Also, in hard mode, I hate when the cpu cars, try to push you off the race track. They sometimes do that in intermediate mode too.

I remember picking up this game back in 2011 at a flea market; shrinkwrapped and everything. I was blown away by how good it was. It's a fantastic game all around, and still one I go back to to this day. I'm impressed it hasn't had a re-release yet, for that it really is one of the best racing games ever made.

Anyone else think it would have been a stronger graphical presentation to leave out the 2d cardboard cutout fans on the sidelines?

Some of these trial missions are tough. I'm always like 1 second away from beating the set time. But at least I know that's a sign that I'm getting better.

Now when you unlock all the cars they aren't available in every game mode. I don't think you get to use all of them in quick race
