E5on, I was so concerned with battling Claymore that I never noticed you creeping up on us. You sly dog you !
Oh I noticed alright, and he's ahead of me on the current challenge as well.

Shame you're done on this Yuffie. After 11 events, I beat you in 5, you beat me in 6, and there was only 1 point between us - i think it's safe to say we're pretty evenly matched!

Current challenge is one of those annoying ones where you know what you need to do but can just never seem to put it all together. (well, it is for me so far anyway).

Oh it could happen that the two of you could be on equal points going into the last event. It's a pity that Ian missed a challenge as he could have brought some competition to Lisa. She ran away with this from the beginning.

I said it before we did this championship that we we're very even. That could be why we started it Although I was lucky that we did get 3 drifting events (not including the last one I missed). Up until those came along you were beginning to pull away.

Didn't rea my event was the last of the championship! I guess a new one will start over after this one? I've missed the majority of events this time round but will do my best to get involved in all of them if we do a new one.

Need to make this final event a real ball buster!!

Ian would have been up with us going for 2nd or 3rd, but his (comparatively) poor results in the drifts (he lost 19 points to Lisa over the 3 drifts) probably meant he would have been challenging for first place. (Though maybe if he was closer to her going into those events he'd have tried a bit harder, who knows).

I feel I was ahead a bit, then you gradually caught and passed me, and now it looks like E5 will do the same. Must try harder!

Wow this car is annoying
It reminds me of the Ariel Atom, a bit twitchy but good fun. Annoying when you go slightly off track or bump a barrier and it turns way too far round to recover it though.

I've got something like 520 out of 545 stars on tour mode, other than 1 or 2 stars (I can't beat the bloody average speed challenge on one of the Dezir events ) they are all drift events!

lol - it's not my favourite, but I find it does offer a nice change of pace from time to time.

I really need to get back to the tour. I've only completed the main tour, the first two packs, and about half of redline.

I was doing that Dezir average the other day, was driving me nuts, kept getting 74.7 needed 75mph. In the end did it on lap one, using the AI cars as brakes. The drift scores are way easier to achieve since the patch, definitely go back to them now.

You should have another bash at them now we've got the new scoring. I remember back when the game was first out, the 3rd star on the Pagani drift event was just about doable, but incredibly frustrating. Went back to it the other day with the new scoring and breezed over 10,000 within 2 or 3 attempts, whether that's the new scoring or having done 1000s of drift events in the time since, or a combo of the two I don't know.

Getting that average speed in the Dezir was a pain, one of the rare times I just let the pack get a lap ahead so I could focus solely on getting the speed done.

I really need to get back to the tour. I've only completed the main tour, the first two packs, and about half of redline.
Do it, yours and your clubs accolades will thank you for it.

Enjoying the Lambo's! My favourite thing to do when new cars come out that are faster than the old cars in their class is to go back through the tour to events they're available and do everything better.

Urgh the Clio Cup event in the Pacesetter DLC is broken. The cornering face-off failed to initiate a score on all 4 laps.

Edit: Never mind, I'm just too hot-headed. It worked the second time around.

Both packs done 100% The wait goes on for the game update that'll include more accolades, even DS3 is starting to run low!

Peugeot really shouldn't be allowed to make cars... that Onyx Concept is so much of a concept that they forgot to make sure it could brake and steer at the same time. As soon as you touch the brakes, it develops the turning circle of a flatbed truck!

Scrub that last post, I love all of them! Definitely my favourite update so far! To be fair I am partial to choosing Lamborghini's in driving games and these handle pretty good compared to others!

Cars that stick to the road surface properly are always welcome!

You are so, so right!!! I'm really enjoying the driving experience, doesn't feel so random as with other cars, roll on the private lobbies for some epic Lambo battles

I got a 55:886 but doesn't register. Wouldn't have made much difference overall but would've moved me up a few places.

Here's the video of it. You can see when I cross the finish line, Claymore disappears from the top right. I've left the game 20 minutes went back on & checked but never updated
