Video I uploaded of the Wombat challenge.

As you can see I originally only beat claymore by a smidge, but I knew a .661 would never stick and I had to keep going to get a better time while I was in the rhythm of what was working.

Wait, is there a 'boost' on the buggy?

Challenge sent. As usual if I've missed anyone just message me and I'll add you psn E5onAMP.

In case you're wondering why my ghost is bouncing off all the wall I was playing on my vita during my lunch break at work. It's quite difficult making out what's coming up on a tiny screen.

Good luck 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

Took me a day of playing without it to notice as well, shows on the select screen as Boost, same button as kers, more noticeable effect though.

It's hard enough not hitting the walls on a big screen to be fair. This car isn't a fan of turning or stopping.

That Onyx thing in the challenge, the hairpin at the end.. I can feel my life slipping away as it tries to make the turn, got the turning circle of a cruise-liner!

Couldn't tell you what level my Ferrari accolade is at just now without loading up the game. If only there was an app I could quickly check...

93 miles to drive until reach level 5. Do you just need to reach level 5 or max it out? I hadn't been going for the accolades as I thought more ranks were getting added? Don't want to get all the XP for them and then have nothing else to gain XP in to rank up further

Just to level 5 from everything I've read on it. A 'future update' with more ranks/accolades is coming, I'd love for it to be the upcoming one, but something tells me they're going to hold it back for a big blow out update when the season pass runs out, I think in July? Although they have stressed that just because the season pass runs out, it doesn't necessarily mean the end of new content.

All I've got left to do on my driver accolades is the final level of the Aston Martin, the final level on all the locations - except India and race track which are maxed and point to point which is on level 4, and also the club challenges which is on level 3. So yeah, I badly need more levels and accolades to keep me coming back, especially when games like Arkham Knight and Project Cars are out soon.

Speaking of Project Cars, is anyone here going to be giving it a shot? I've been on the fence with it, what with it being heavily set up based and me having a basic at best understanding of all that and favouring this DC style of who has the best skills to get the best out of a car, rather than who's wasted a week of their life tinkering with set ups! Not everybody has got the time or indeed the patience for all that, but the rest of the content is keeping me interested in it.

Lol, they should put in a mini-game where you get a hammer to try and get rid of all the dents.

That hairpin is very slow. Initially it seemed like it was actually quicker to drive straight into the far wall and bounce off but rightly, driving less like a complete lunatic proves to be the way to go.

I see Lisa has pulled further ahead of me now. Don't think I can get an extra second out of this track though.

I have the same fear Lisa about Project Cars, I know a bit after the F1 games and GT but am not at über geek level! I still think I'll jump in tho!! I'm saving Nectar points up so should have enough by end of May to get in for nothing. Do you know the current intended release date?

Yeah that's where my limited know-how comes from, I can see google coming in handy a lot! Supposedly 8th May is the new date.

Persistence paid off in the end, congrats!

Your challenge has just ended, results page 1 and page 2.

Rumours of me getting lax were greatly exaggerated!
Round 2 - E5's challenge results.

Are you tallying up the points Yuffie?

Was the Onyx part of paid dlc, maybe that would explain it?
