Two tips for the wise:
1. Buy an AK-97 assault rifle.
2. If there's someone hanging around your neighborhood you don't know, shoot him.
For the benefit of everyone else, here's the One Weird Trick I found for rearranging your garage:

1. Make sure you have a full garage
2. Have a vehicle you don't mind losing in the destination spot
3. Drive the vehicle you want to move out of the garage
4. Still inside the car (but outside the garage), go online and purchase the cheapest vehicle (the Faggio is $5K)
5. Place this purchased vehicle in the spot where your relocated vehicle used to be - you're overwriting the vehicle's spot in the garage but you're still sitting in it!
6. Drive your relocated vehicle back into the garage and replace the destination spot vehicle with it

I discovered that mods, colors, etc are preserved but not insurance, even for vehicles you purchased online (which come with insurance included). I moved my Exemplar (price ~$200K) and insurance was around $25K.

Cosigned. I ran a series of races with some friends for an hour last night after a round of golf; went up two and a half levels and made $54K.

Press down on the dpad and it should bring up a little stat window over every car you are near in the garage. It'll say insured or not insured as well.

Including those, there's 1009 for The 1000-1009 and GNTF for Goon-Tang Forever, as well as MOTO for the Moto Goonzzi, but that's more of a specialist crew.

What is the trick for actually joining races? I never get invites from the pubbies in my session, and whenever I create a race and send out invites to everyone I possibly can nobody ever joins. You guys make it sound like its easy to jump into a pubby race at any time. What gives?

I was a bad boy and am now in the bad boy section of the game which is not as bad as everyone said- they said it was a land of Tanks and rich assholes but for now it has just been an empty land. However I made $30,000 in an hour which sounds like little but is kind of a lot for me right now.

Feels good to Bootstrap myself up. loving blows that I can't play with my Goons though.

I cannot fathom why they have not fixed that dupe bug given the amount of money that has been made already with the game. They obviously wanted to monetize credits so I have to think they are looking at loosing that money on paper right now and every minute that goes by that they have not fixed the bug.

Every seat in the back sits 1, plus 2 in the cab. So like 12 or something. (less rows than I thought, so 8ish)

e: VVV 10 then, people just have to double-tap Y near the back door to warp in to a seat. The people in the front 2 seats in the back will pretty much only be able to shoot the front of the truck though :(

Just join a quick race through the phone interface. I believe it is the left hand button, and then select race. It is super easy to join pubbie races that way.

On a side note, it is also super easy to join two guys doing the three lap trick and then prompty get kicked... It would be nice if matchmaking was default off, or at the very least retain the configuration of the earlier race.

E: ijyt, if I find a Futo I'll hold it for you and let you know / send you an invite
E2: if you come back online
E3: Got it thanks to BitBasher, nevermind

A couple of days ago I got mildly frustrated that my bikes and muscle car were in the very back of the garage and took forever to get to. I sold / destroyed all of my cars in order to re-populate the garage in a decent order.

I have now spent all of my game time for the last 3 days driving all over the place looking for a Bagger. Yes, the shittiest motorcycle in the game. Still, with only 3 road bikes it is essential that I have one but I can not find the loving thing.

If you are on PS3, are not busy, and are also cool as hell then I'd like to ask you for a handful of favors in sequence:

- If you see a Bagger in the next hour or two, grab it and sit on it
- Add me to your friend list so I can find you in-game (PSN: mr_dread)
- Hope along with me that the session isn't full so I can come in
- Give it to me
- Don't murder me until I garage it

I know it's asking a lot, but I really would appreciate any help.
