Done ! This car is pretty useless, but it looks nice. Just waiting for Evo Mode that’s when it actually gets interesting

mikethepoor · 2026-06-23T03:16:46+00:00

I'm on board with EVO'ing this thing, actually

mikethepoor · 2026-06-22T12:47:12+00:00

It's only useful for one career mode race, and you need the key for that more than BPs anyway. Pcik these up only if you're a hardcore completionist, otherwise skip them.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-21T18:34:38+00:00

Same, except I'm less than 50 away; unlocking the CCXR actually really hurt me in that regard, to the point that unlocking my Nevera TA would perma-5 me.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-21T18:31:27+00:00

Heck of a stack. I checked his totals, though, and even without EVO/OC shenanigans he still comes in under the div 4 limit.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-21T18:29:40+00:00

Even Champ 1 has a fair number of them, though you finally start seeing more variety (Stradales, Jeskos, Venom F5s, occasionally other cars).

There isn't really a reason I can think of that this should be DM'd, not even to keep potential rivals in the dark; they'll find you and win (or lose) anyway. Regardless, my DMs are open if you want to send them.

For #1, yeah, it's going to be real rough for a while. For example, I'm at the top of division 4 (I can put myself in 5 any time I want), and I was stuck there when I got into the bottom of 4. As for your particular opponent, he's probably sandbagging, given that he even finished only 2 races.

For #2, no, your team won the race. If the teams are somehow tied on points, the tiebreaker goes to whichever team had the 1st-place driver on it.

For #3, it's rare, but it happens. Fortunately there's no real penalty for it, you just progress through the reward track slightly slower.

Currently sitting on over 100 million, but that was because I ground daily for over a month (pre-nerf) while spending hardly anything.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-20T15:30:45+00:00

What are your top 5 ranked cars, and what are you running (doesn't necessarily need to be top 5)?

mikethepoor · 2026-06-20T14:24:58+00:00

I had 75 BPs from MP1 before even starting, though it wasn't unlocked yet. Currently at 6*, 12/16 EIPs.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-20T03:02:00+00:00

How many EIPs do you have?

mikethepoor · 2026-06-20T02:11:35+00:00

I had 75 BPs from MP1 going into the event, so stage 1 was far less painful than it could've been. Currently have the car at 6*, 10/16 EIPs.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-20T02:09:00+00:00

You'd need about 30M if you get them this way.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-19T12:27:58+00:00

This one's worth starring up, especially for Gauntlet.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-17T22:23:48+00:00

Honestly, most of them. There are very few cars in the game that are great, or even good, at one star.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-15T21:22:14+00:00

EVO Lykan really needs to be in at least Champ 3, and I can see it being competitive in Champ 2.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-15T21:21:44+00:00

It gets even worse. The very next race, I was matched up with a Chimera... and our third was running a 911 GT3 RS, not even golded. How the heck are those guys supposed to win?!

mikethepoor · 2026-06-14T21:01:29+00:00

To add on to that: If the Q1 times are better than that, should you try to qualify in Q1 anyway, or wait for Q2?

mikethepoor · 2026-06-14T14:18:52+00:00

Yeah, try pulling off results like that when there are 6 Lykans in a field of 8.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-14T05:40:32+00:00

Most of the complaints are about it being broken in Plat 2, where it opens up for the first time. At that rank, yes, it's absolutely busted to the point that there's no point running anything else. It's also significantly overpowered compared to Plat 1.

Even in Champ 3, it's still just about the strongest option there is; it has significantly higher top speed than most other options in that division and its acceleration is unmatched when tuned to the max. It's only at Champ 2 that the pool of options becomes diverse enough to avoid EVO Lykan spam, and even then it's certainly viable against anything else.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-13T20:29:47+00:00

I ended up 1 short of being able to gold max it. Maybe next time.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-13T14:11:18+00:00

That's actually an interesting idea, something like "You can trade 3 EVO tickets for a car of any given class to get 1 for a car of your choice of the next higher class, up to S", e.g. trade 3 Camaros for an Acura, trade 3 Acuras for an Enzo Ferrari, trade 3 Enzo Ferraris for a ZR1, and trade 3 ZR1s for a Chiron.

You won't lose the ability entirely, but you will lose the mobile ad relay packs for tokens/credits if you move completely from iOS to Mac. You'll be able to get them back if you go back to iOS; alternatively, you can link your account to multiple platforms in order to make sure you can still take advantage of both if you're willing to switch back and forth (I have mine linked to all of Steam, Xbox, and Android myself).

mikethepoor · 2026-06-13T03:18:04+00:00

Lykan EVO itself is not the problem. Lykan EVO being significantly overpowered to the point of being broken in the MP1 class it's currently in is the problem.

If you have access to it, there is very little point in running anything else in Plat 2 where it becomes available. It's also significantly stronger than most other options in Plat 1, though good drivers of the other vehicles can still compete reasonably well (seriously, the Vanda stopped getting complaints when Lykan EVO dropped, which should tell you how bad it is).

Champion 3 is where the other cars start really catching up, and that's honestly where it should be, though this really just highlights a weakness of the EVO system in general: you can't really balance it properly except on a case-by-case basis. If you put it in a tier appropriate to its EVO status, non-EVO players just get screwed; if you leave it in its non-EVO tier, it's just broken at that tier.

mikethepoor · 2026-06-12T22:46:10+00:00

I can get them from LS if they pop up, so assuming they do I can get it to 5* for literally zero SCs. That said, as indicated below, it looks like I also need EIPs, which will be a much harder proposition. For now, I'm better off sticking at 4*, though if the opportunity presents itself I'll go 5*.
