Full Racing Car List and Racing Parts Upgrade List · · 59 likes


A full list of cars and their default stats for enlisted cars (Updated for RESPO):
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P_4DxHgEPMPjfM4JVa52kUbCApssIeF34HJk_L3jDeM/edit?usp=sharing

(Note: The stats on the car item page differ to those when the car is enlisted in racing in a ratio of 2:1)

The full list of upgrades:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1efns8FcXogrT-y5xEgvn6CCKGe9ofjbuLrthPwmtW18/edit?usp=sharing
Note: Safety Upgrades do not affect performance or chance of crashing. They reduce hospital time in the event of a crash.

Empirical evidence (Tested on Ferrari 486, Aston Martin One-77, Ford GT40) suggests that IN CLASS A for each +1 of benefit this equates to:
Top Speed: +0.86333%
Acceleration: +0.83333%
Braking: +0,83333%
Handling: +0.9135%
Dirt: +0.83333%
Track:+0.83333%
Safety:+0.83333%

For a fully upgraded car you need to spend 311 racing points on 53 upgrades and a max. cost of $817,500.

An Aston Martin One-77 fully upgraded with parts for max speed and track got an increase of 32mph, -0.5 sec to do 0-60mph and -27 foot braking distance.

Gambling while travelling · · 10 likes


Given the "dead time " while travelling, there should be some limited ability to gamble to pass the time. Most modern air travel (in RL) provide electronic avenues for entertainment (gambling being one of the biggest). So if you don't even have your laptop or cell phone they still provide you a means of gambling with their inhouse entertainment system.

Marriage - Can I Sell the ring if I have another? · · 1 like


I have unwanted rings in my inventory (diamond, silver and gold) and want to sell them but I can't remember what type of ring I got married with. Does it matter as long as I keep at least one ring in my inventory?

I had multiple temporary items (bricks, grenades, HEG's, Tear Gas etc) prior to the new Item page layout. The page is only displaying 1 of each. I sold 1 grenade to see if it was a display issue. Refreshed the page and one grenade was displayed.

Other items seem to be displaying the correct amount.

You can still use your Lower class cars in both official races and custom races.

Not much point in "official races" except for using B Class - Ford Cosworth in Mudpit course.

Custom races let you stipulate the car, the track and the level.

Points Market Icon Disappears - minor issue ·


Thank you for the quick response.

Points Market Icon Disappears - minor issue ·


When I remove points from the points market the "points market icon" disappears even though I still have points listed in the market (see screenshot)

[image: i62.tinypic.com]

The only way that I can get the icon to re-appear for my 4 points listed is to either delete all my points and re-list or add another listing. This is not a big problem as I can always access the points market from the city but I buy/sell frequently and have always relied on the icon as a shortcut and status of my market position.

Win Money? ·


Winning "Official Races" gives you 3pts - 1st, 2pts - 2nd, and 1pt - 3rd plus some unkown amount of driving skill but no money.

Custom races can be set up to have an entrance fee which goes to the prize pool for that race. The first three across the line split the prize pool plus you get an unknown amount of driver skill.

There are two awards that you can also earn:

High/Low game - Dealers card not showing ·


Thanks Toshykazu. Will let you know if the issue recurs.

High/Low game - Dealers card not showing ·


I have just used the rest of my tokens (46) and I varied my stake from $10k to $10m. The problem did not resurface.

High/Low game - Dealers card not showing ·


Hi Aurel. I did not refresh the screen either time. After the first time I closed the browser, cleared the cache and went to the casino again. The game proceeded properly for about 10 turns then the problem recurred. I was uncertain that if I refreshed the browser mid turn the game would be lost and my stake along with it (happened anyway).

I'm currently flying but will try again when I return to Torn and let you know the outcome.

High/Low game - Dealers card not showing ·


When I clicked start on High/Low ($10,000 stake) the game did not display the dealers card but asks me to pick High/low (see image)

I clicked higher (and lost) - see image

[image: i58.tinypic.com]

This has happened twice in my last 25 goes. I deleted the cache after the first time. Running Google Chrome on windows 8.1. Connected to Server: App2 Thu 02:41:XX - 18/09/14

Can you please have a look at the issue as I sometimes play with $10m at stake. (Willing to test game at $10 stake with the rest of my tokens)

Race Results Predetermined? ·


You are correct. You will also notice that sometimes a rival will overtake you on a lap and yet post a slower lap time for that lap.

Knowing your finishing time also enables you to start a new race without having to wait until everybody else finishes the race (and getting the event notification).
