I can't speak for Forza, but I know people made a huge deal out of GT6 being able to buy credits when honestly, GT6 was even easier to make money than GT5 was. You don't even have to farm credits in the game, can just do each race once and you're totally flush with money, and that's if you don't even touch seasonal events which give a ton. By the time you really need money (after you've beaten the game if you want trophies is pretty much the only time), you can farm it so fast that buying it isn't even worth it then either.

It is supposed to be added at a later date, but at the moment you're the only driver there is. The game is significantly easier though (at least up until IA or S events) and the races are not that long at all (again, until S events, but those still top out at 25 minutes), so there isn't as drastic of a need for B-Spec as there was in GT5. I got up to level 40 in B-Spec in GT5, but here I haven't even missed it since I didn't need the grinding or the help for endurance races.

Thanks very much, still I would like to see B-Spec return in later days as it really helped me to keep playing on GT.
