Hey, I'm in my upper 50's and hooked on World. I've owned some of the real world muscle cars when they where in the showrooms in the early 1970's when me and my buds where shade-tree mechanics. GTO's, Chevelle's, Mustangs, Roadrunners (where are they here?), you name it. Anyway, on to some questions that I know you guys/gals will have an answer to. BTW, I'm averaging 3.5 place after a month of gameplay and spending real money on cars and parts.

1. Is there a way to buy tuned parts, other than buying the whole tuned car? I know you can win them.
2. Why is my fully tuned Silvia such a dog? I made a mistake and sold my semi tuned Silvia thinking the police Silvia would be better. Is there a way to fix it?
3. Can you trade out parts from one car to another car (put them back in inventory).
4, Can you trade out parts from one driver to another?
5. Can I keep my kids/grandkids from messing with my cars by locking it with a password? I know I can lock the complete game.
6. How many cars do you guys own? I’ve got 5 and think it’s too many.
7. HACKERS….. how do you report speed hackers going 300/400 mph in a Mazda speed3 and is anything being done about it after they’re reported?

Thanks and good luck to the real drivers out there.

1. Not as far as I know.
2. Not a part expert here so I do not know.
3. You cannot.
4. No.
5. Only solution I have here is to simply not tell them your password or leave your driver logged in when you are afk.
6. I currently own 40 cars.
7. In game report function I believe, but not much is done about it, despite what they may claim.

Also, welcome to the garage.

:wave: Hi, nice to see someone older than me here. I am in my low 50's.

Looks like your questions have pretty much been answered, though you could try beating those kids with a big stick until they learn to leave your cars alone Posted Image Also, the hackers and cheats can be a real pain. One way around them is to join a crew. Since I joined Hayasa I have found that I rarely race mp and am usually doing private races with other crew members. We have a lot of fun, and no cheaters or hackers to be seen.

I have about 10 cars, but am thinking of others.
