Endurance Series

In the Endurance Series races it's not so much about finding the right car as it is to make them go as fast as possible. With that in mind, I will recommend the fastest possible car at any given level. That means the Formula Gran Turismo until you get the Red Bull X2010. You can get the X2010 by getting at least bronze in the Red Bull Challenge Special Event (unlocked at LV 30) or when you reach B-Spec LV 35.

I will also list the time I got in those races along with XP/Min. In B-Spec races, I use the time it takes when not giving any orders.

In timed endurance races, I will list the amount of laps the AI finishing in 2nd place under dry conditions. While these numbers should be very accurate, I take no responsibility if they drive longer in your race. The idea is that you use the fastest car available and when you have driven more laps then you know the AI will do, you can stop the car right before the finish line, then come back and cross it right after the race have reached 4, 9 or 24 hours depending on the race time. This way you don't have to drive for the entire race and can save up to 8 hours on Le Mans 24 Hour for example. I do recommend checking back the last hour to make sure you're safely in the lead.
