At least you'll get a fame boost.

This challenge is driving me nuts. Spend ages not getting anywhere, then all of a sudden manage a few good laps, then get one great lap, only to stuff it on the last corner. Extremely annoying. And tbh, I really wouldn't be caring that much, if it wasn't for the person currently ahead of me in second.

This is probably going to be my most attempts ever.

That first corner is a right pain. You can mess it up so easily. I'm pretty happy with my time anyway so calling it a day on this one.

What I meant was I couldn't let you get further ahead of me in the league with only a few events left. If it wasn't for that, I'd have been very happy with my time.

But that was then...

I also noticed a weird bug on the number of attempts. Was looking at the leaderboard, and my number of attempts kept going up, as if it was slowly catching up.

Discovered the 13.1s in the first sector, unfortunately I only ever seem to nail the middle sector once every 10 or so laps.

I think I'm up next so I'm going use the last 'leaderboard' and send friend requests to anyone not already on my friends list.
I haven't issued a challenge before so please bear with me if I somehow cock it up.

The new drifting mechanic is much, much better now and the replays are quite good as well.

The new patch unlocked my Clubman trophy which had failed to unlock despite me having the Lifer trophy.

Seems a good update. This game gets some great support.

Thanks. Changed it. I blame IGN - I knew it as Atlantic Road but their track listing was out of date when I went to check the official name and spelling.

Some interesting images have appeared on the Japanese PS Blog which seem to show MotorStorm style buggies in the game.

slw's challenge results page 1 and page 2.

Can't say I've noticed any difference with the drifting scoring, I kind of assumed I'd just be instantly wiping over the old scores with supposedly more reward for not over-drifting the car back on itself. Maybe it's more noticeable on the longer drift events?

Also that flash of white as that update page appeared, I thought I'd finally worn the game/PS4 out!

Oh wait I have found a difference. I ended up in the gravel after a drift and had to be reset and it dumped me at the start of the next section and took away the score of the illegal drift, so that's good.

I see there's better notifications now, it tells you exactly what events other players on your friends list are doing.

Whats the restrictions for cars in the challenges?
I know paid DLC should be avoided but what level of car can we use?

Oh that's interesting. Two pictures of them. And they just talked about the camera angles as if these pictures were normal.

We've never set a maximum level for what cars can be used but we try and be mindful of others that aren't at level 50.

How am I supposed to score any points in drift events now then???

Ya, stick to 3 days. We'll see about moving to 5 for the next round of events.

That's what I said the other day more or less. Sony going hammer and tong with driveclub despite the lack of content at the beginning. Keeping us busy to Gran Turismo 7 hits

Strange view in replays of driver. Would've liked the view of driver cam. Maybe it's there though and I missed it.
