I finally managed to beat one of Lisa B's times last night

Such a shame the challenges aren't up and running yet. They'd be the perfect way to celebrate such momentous occasions

I had a go on this yesterday for the first time in a couple of weeks and went to the time trials. I was having fun as the leaderboards were up and running, but then they crashed. I stayed about for another half hour but they didn't come back up so I quit. Shame as I was beginning to have fun.

PS. I was doing the Canada time trials under single event but didn't see Lisa on my friends leaderboards. Am I in the right place ?? Is this where we're trying to beat her ?

I think the leaderboards in the single events at least are unique to whichever car you use as well as the track so she may well not have raced your particular combination.

It's mostly in the tour time trials where I've seen her and indeed had her ghost taunting me many a time. It was the Black Hills time trial event in one of the mid classes (sports or performance?) on the tour where I managed to beat her time.

When I've been going for scores/times, I've just been going for the ones in the events

Check again.

That was hard work! I hate those chicanes on Black Hills with a passion. If there was a record for most restarts, I think I just earned it.

Go for it: Little_Ifrit

The single event time trials holds leaderboards for each car on each track but also has an "all cars" section and she wasn't appearing in there. But it must be the tour events. I'm enjoying the time trials now, the boards been fine for the past 2 hours. I think I've decent times set in all the Canada tracks (but very beatable at the same time).

Im trying to find times by friends but the isn't much.
If say I go time trial on the first Canada one and have it set for all vehicles. I can only see little-lfrit with a time using a maclaren p1. Nobody else is on it other than me with a volkswagan golf.

Can we pick a track and car and all go for it ?

I'd be up for that first Canada one with the golf. Im about 81St on global for golf on there just now but must be lots of seconds available as I made tons of mistakes. Mine was 2:57:238 there's another 10 secs to first place.

Edit 77th on 2:57:040

Was just thinking the scale of friends leaderboards. I mean every track and every car having a leaderboard = a lot of challenges.

Gillyallan, that's where I was going wrong yesterday. People have set times in the tour whereas I was in time trials.

I intend to set times in all the tracks, for all the cars. This will help with the accolades too.

Knew yous would be quicker omtt but I'll be back.

So where are we doing this then? Tour or single event ? Didn't think the your was really suitable.

Ps. Had a 5 quid voucher from argos for buying pstv so used it against a 20 psn top up. Going to use for season pass.

I just went to single event to do it. There were 2 other times set on it but with a different car.

When you select the track, the leaderboard shows times based on all cars but once you complete the track, you'll see the leaderboards with the car you just drove.

If you click leaderboards and go to global, it'll just show time based on all cars (some are obviously glitched), it doesn't show you the global leaderboard for that specific car & track. So even if it says you're 10th in the world for that combo, there's no way to see what the fastest time for that combo is to see if you're close or not.

Gillyallan, you were 77th when I started the trial but 80th when I finally beat it so myself & 2 other people in the world were doing the exact same car/track combo at the same time.

I made a couple of errors and could maybe get another second or so off that time but it just gets frustrating & end up restarting all the time!

Could we come up with some idea based on above for everyone that wants to do it. Thinking turns each at picking a track and car maybe each runs for a few days or a week

Hopefully this'll be what the challenges will be when they eventually work. Set a time with a specific car or track with weather & time conditions & then issue it to everyone to try and beat. That way it's all recorded officially

Well...against my morale stance of waiting till game is fixed. I'm now all season passed up. Getting it for £15 quid was ideal for me (due to 5 quid argos voucher of which I'd nothing else to buy from them)

Thought it might download at least a little unlock key or something but nothing. Guess it maybe just goes in your services list or something.

I played pure pool during the week and thought we all just abandoned that game very quickly. Shame. It's good.

Yeah it's a great game, just really difficult. I got to the stage where I couldn't get any further in either the 8 or 9 ball tournament & just stopped playing. It's good going back to it but I still can't get any further! You miss one shot and it's game over 😡
