In light of my above post...I decided that I wasn't too far into the game (25%) so I would start a new careen, investing all of my Blacklist markers into the Pink-slip random-reward.
I started again, blew threw the BMW intros, and picked the Cobalt as my starter.
This is when a funny though hit me...how far can I make it, using a bone-stock starter car (not even performance tuning it.)
Well, I aced the first set of races without a problem, also beat racer 15 without a hitch. Rewards: Get outta jail, and bonus 10k. NO PINK SLIP!!!
I went into the second set of races, the newer cars got the jump on my stock Cobalt, but in the end, I beat them all with at least 10 seconds to spare. Racer 14 wasn't difficult, he got the jump on me off the line (and up the incline hill) but this too, ended with my blue Cobalt in the front by 5+ seconds on both of his races. Rewards: 16k bonus cash, and an impound strike. NO PINK SLIP!!!
Well, I'm off to bed, I'll update my Blue Cobalt SS journal tomorrow.
*Note: I'm playing the PS2 Black Edition game, sadly, my PC doesn't do this justice*
