Anyone who doesn't own this....and really!...why not?
Then if it stays at 19.99 you could use your 10% off code this weekend for another 2 quid off. Bargain.
Already got it there's nothing i want to use the code on now will have to trawl the bargain section again

Think I'm going to use the code and little bit of credit I have on the season pass.
I was thinking about doing the same thing.

What track/settings did you use? I played a few races on the Japan tracks, daytime and dynamic weather but didn't see one
India. Can't remember the exact settings, I tried a fair few combinations, but it was early morning. I'll send it out as a mini-challenge while we're waiting on an official one so you don't have to faff about with the settings too much

Everyone that's played it in the last 24 hours should have it as it was added in the mandatory patch.

The rainbows look nice 😎🌈 http://i.imgur.com/PePdTGq.png

So back to a classic time trial, fast track with records to be broken (Lisa!).

Japan - Lake Shoji, no rain, random cloud cover.
Car - Lotus Evora S Sports Racer level 10 unlock so the new guys should be able to use it.
3 days, 40 invited, let the fun begin!

If you didn't receive the game alert, or want to join in, add me PSN- iann34

I like the challenge Ian. That was my first time on the Japan tracks. I like the nice wide roads

I kept doing that too, for me it's now a case of blind faith and hope that I do pull too far to the right. Such a good adrenaline rush.

With this game I feel like I've finally got something to cover the void left by Burnout Paradise.

The sun and lighting affects in this are amazing. I have had a few moments so far where I have been blinded by the sun as I come out of a tunnel or come over a hill. Its really good and annoying at the same time. I also love the weather effects, I played a quick race set up with full stormy weather and it was awesome.

I am currently racing using the bumper view but feel I am missing out on the great looking car interiors, but I suck at driving when using the cockpit view.

The drift events suck, not really a fan of those at all at the moment.

I gave the challenge a quick go last night as well which seems like fun. But I am confused on how the ghosts work. Does it display the fastest persons ghost or the person with a time slightly better than my best, I think one of the ghost cars was my best run Also is there a limit to how many laps you can do attempting to get a time.

It displays the fastest lap time set.

I think they may have changed the ghosts recently. They used to show you your best lap and your previous lap, which was all a bit much.

If you do a normal time trial (not a challenge) then it shows the person in front of you.

I was top of the leaderboards at one point last night and chasing down my own ghost which was strange...

It lasted all but 10 minutes though as then Lisa decided to show up..... : (

For me, I've noticed that it's the 2nd corner and also the corner before entering the tunnel where I can definitely make up some time. Looking forward to giving it another shot tonight!

Oops, I've given my weakness away. Drat

Oh I also dislike drifting events if you want to go down that route

The yellow corner before the tunnel slows me down & also the yellow near the end when you get out of the tunnel. I always get to close to the barrier on the left & give it a ding & lose a bit of pace. Twice last night I was ahead of Lisa until that bit & ended up a second behind 😡
