receive the concept car (Copper Head). You do not have to race the
first and second rounds. Do not sell the car. Race one more time to
get another concept car. Sell one of concept cars for 125,000 credits,
and change your car to the other concept car. Go to Dodge and upgrade
the Concept car with TCS and ACS. Go to the Mid Engine Championship
and set your car with lowest ride height, the anti-roll bar to 7 on
both front and rear. And TCS and ACS to the middle (50 out of 100 and
25 out of 50). This will prevent spin out while you are on low speed
tight turns and make this car one of the best racing machines. Win the
final round of the Mid Engine Championship to receive the Ford GT40
Race car. Sell that car for the credits. Repeat this race until
obtaining 1.5 million credits. Go to Toyota to buy the GT-One Road
Car and upgrade it with stage 4 turbo , and other mods, including
TCS and ACS (set to the middle). Unfortunately the car will not except
the racing modification but car itself is excellent in street spec with
any racing conditions.
