Can someone shed some light on it? I just can't seem to find any in depth write up of what they symbolize. What I do know, is after getting to ex spec with 6 upgrades and about 20 hours of play, i've got about 13 medals, 10 bronzish and 3 silverish, and the rest are all red or blue bannered. Thanks in Advance! This post has been edited by Rarrowsmith on Mar 16 2016, 10:47 AM |

As far as I know, there is no advantage for collecting them. It's just for hsow. |

The last version I played was ID3 and the progression on the card was excellent. Made you strive for starts. Time/play based stinks Thanks for verifying what a feared! |

Meh, I'll be ok with no Aura and an E3 that kicks ass. It's not about the title or the car, its about the person behind the windshield...and the spec certainly helps |

Thanks for all the info, now I can set impossible dreams higher! Shout out to 'Fishy!' for making it down to Round One in Taunton MA on Sunday to play with me and a few other racers, had a good time. Anyone who's around, save Easter, we're there every Sunday! |
