You'll need to acquire them.

 

The easiest methods are;

- Do a driving marathon each day (26.2 miles) which gives you a random free car

- Do each row of the driving school thing (I can't remember it's proper name) it's 8 challenges which has a gift symbol at the end.  Get all gold and get a free random car.

- Do circuit experiences, gold on each section and complete track will give you a free random car

 

Worth noting that any driving you do counts towards the driving marathon, the driving school thingy and circuit experience included, so doing them to get your 26.2 daily miles can get you several free cars a day.

 

The circuit experience also nets you a decent amount of dollar too though there's better ways to earn money.  It used to be doing some of the league races with specific set ups but I'm out the loop of the fastest way to earn dollar these days.

This one by a mile @slamminbones . When you're on too if you save up some cash, the other guys can help let you know which ones to buy and get hold of.

 

I actually think tonight could be a good one considering there's a number of new people turning up. Definitely great to see more people get involved in other FG game nights.

@slamminbones my car recommendations:

 

Gr.4

Audi TT Cup

It tends to excel at most circuits.

Also, the Dodge Viper is a nimble car for today's race.

 

Gr.3

BMW M3

Nissan GTR 

Porsche 911

Mercedes

Toyota Supra

 

Most of the Gr.3 cars are well balanced so it's more a preference on whether you want big and powerful or something more nimble around corners.

Definitely looking forward for tonight. 

Played a little so far and this seems the hardest GT game to date.

I started to watch Super GT videos to help me, here's one he did on tonight's first race.
