Well, this is getting fucking old.  I'm thinking experience might have something to do me being unable to grab 1nd place.  I have barely run any B-Spec races since the launch of this game.  My Bobs my be a level 30 but they have zero training from me.  I'm at that level due to you guys running my bobs.

I appreciate all the tips, advice and tricks that you all have put forth.  I'm going to run this one more time and then call it fucking quits!  Sure wish the Bentley would show up in the dealership.  That's the one car I haven't tried.

Thanks again guys!

I haven't "trained" my bobs either. I switched to the NSX and won two races in a row. Maybe try different cars, and I know, it gets frustrating fast. >:(

My bobs were trained by me spamming the pace up button. They still suck and need a superior car to get the job done.

All my Roberts/Robertas are Level 40 and the game says they should be 35, that may be the difference.   My robo-drivers have been level 40 since before we could remote race with them.



I was going to try the sport tires trick from Spa, with that one i can run totally unattended.  With the LeMans race, I need to start and then intervene around lap 9.

Has anyone tried sports softs at LeMans to fore-go the pitting issue?

Yes, and they didn't last the race on a Minolta Toyota (>900hp).

New sleazonals last night; some sort of DIY (drive it yourself) thing at high pp.

Collect your guys winnings I noticed your boys that are still online have a couple of bubbles lit, in addition to that I gave them a race and one of them picked up another win. You may have some hidden levels that could be of some use.

Used Ronins Setup For the Audi R8 Playstation to win the Le Sarthe Race (lvl 37 bobs - Arrow Down, Hot Personalities) Thanks Ronin -
: http://www.supatunagt.com/smf/index.php?topic=79.msg31160#msg31160

Pitted with majority of field, switched to Intermediate and changed driver. I wasn't in 2nd place by lap 6, but on Lap 9 pretty much the whole field pitted and I cancelled my lap 9 pit and won it easily. Boston I'll run your bobs some to get their level up


Sport Softs worked like a charm for Spa, used New GTR, Stage 3 Turbo, Hot Personality Bob

Well holy shat,  I finally got 1rd in that damn La Sarthe B-spec race.

I said eff it and ran sports softs all race long.  I pitted once on lap 5 and beat the punks by a meer 3 seconds.  

I really belive the only reason I won the race was because it was the first time that the Bentley did not show up in the group.

Anyway, thanks again for all the assistance.
