I get free upgrades at about 5 car companies now, including Ferrari. Am after getting lamburgini next , and lotus
The servers have had some issues today, great if you have a load of bids in on auctions when they go down, but not the time to sell cars. I'll sit on my stock till I'm sure they are running properly again.
I've got a heap of great drift cars too But no where near as many A600 cars for "tag" games. I'll address that soon, and label the cars in the club garage to say if they are set up for grip, drift or tag, may even set some for drag racing

The online rivalries stuff is good.
On track days (where you have to lap as fast as possible, whilst avoiding slower cars) I did a 53.8ish round indianapolis speedway in a stock (R730) car, 150th fastest worldwide after just 3 laps, fastest person using a stock unmodified NASCAR was 75th fastest, just 2 seconds faster

Tips to make money.
Watch the auctions before listing cars, to get an idea for what sells, and when, some cars sell better to Europeans, some to yanks. Time your auctions accordingly, same with buying stuff, don't buy when prices are high, and everyone is online

I'm level 50 !!!!!!!! The club garage now has some proper R1 race cars.
The Bentley is fast as fuck but twitchy
The Mazda is better on twisty circuits with short straights, it's geared to 200
Haven't driven the peugeot yet

There are no "reward cars" beyond driver level 50, so my next aim is to get a manufacturer affinity to level 50 !

Get refunds on your upgrades. If you spend cash on upgrades before you get the 100% discount, you can sell them back in the usual way from Forza 3, and then re install them for free Also if you select events individually you can alter the settings so you can race in souped up cars against standard cars, once I was past lvl50 I did this as cash not important, just affinity gains

Car football : big SUVs rule, and most thought the Hummer was king due to its weight at 8000lbs, but my Audi Q7 just pushed one backwards, and generally bullied the shit out of it, plus it's also quicker.
Here's the spec. Add weight, but also power, and adjustable suspension, gears n diff. So heaviest wheels in 23" rims, rear spoiler and crucially drag tyres, mine weight 6000lbs, and had 800lbs torque, benched 0-60 in 4.5
I'll upload the tune when I've tweaked it a touch as all I did was drop suspension, and adjust dif

Got it today, it's good, very good. The power they've extracted from the little ol' 360 is immense. Add me Dave, cway1986 is the name.

Just scored a screamer in a 2v2 private game of car footy with some mates. 17 seconds on the clock at KO , scored on 10 to equalise coming up from sweeper position past the 2 tangling in the centre to arrive at the lose ball just before their sweeper and punted it into the top corner

I've left the SCFC 1863 car club, as only 3 members, neither of the other 2 had put any cars in the clubs garage, nor used any of mine, it seemed all kinda pointless. I've joined a car club with some mates of mine, who aren't stoke fans. They are also usually online when I am, and we regularly have private car footy and tag games.
I'm now LVL 75 (one of my mates has hit LVL 150 as high as you can get)

Now level 92, I think and having a right laugh. Audi Q7 is no longer king of car footy, it's a '12 Dodge Charger or '68 Dodge Dart for me, the latter being king of drag it does 0-60 in 1.89 seconds in my footy spec !!
