Redline Tour DLC tomorrow 😀
You should take your time with the dlc. Everyone batters through it to complete as fast as possible. The challenges should help break it up a bit.
I've still to complete the normal tour, never mind all the dlc.

In the normal tour, the ones where you're up against times. The third stars for the top time are pretty much on point are they not? Gotta get past traffic asap and not slip up at all.

The Elements tour is £1.69 & the Redline Expansion Pack is £4.99 if you don't have the season pass. Why's there such a big price difference?

Elements I don't think you actually get anything new with. Whereas I think you get cars with redline. Not 100% sure

Actually I don't really think that you physically get much with any of these packs. Guess thats why it was only 20 quid.

I've only played the first event in Redline and found it tough. Couldn't get into first place at all, never mind for 1 minute!

Edit: done it at second attempt. Feels strange being up against other racers lol

Have to laught at the Scottish Summer event... Pissing it down!

Another undrivable bag of sh*t courtesy of Renault. (That Alpine Hot Lap). Think that might be the one to end the 100% streak.

No I don't think so.

You gets points if you beat it, but that's it.

Eh dunno really. The second corner is so dodgy. You either get loads of points on it or bugger all.

I really struggle in the tour. I mean likes of in amateur. The Italian performance cup. I have everything other than the star for first part getting under 2:20. I think I'd struggle to get it without other cars there. Any tips on going for these time things ?

Get past the AI as soon as possible, ideally without any collision penalties. The more you spend tangled up in amongst the other cars, the more it slows you down and then once you're in the lead just treat it like any other TT.

This is a typical run for me on the Italian one I mentioned. I have done better but this is warts n all run.

Should I hang back at corners or do what I'm doing and smack down the inside etc. If you Wouldn't mind sparing 3 mins to look

For me personally, I would struggle with that camera angle as you don't have the greatest field of vision for track positioning and what the other racers are doing around you other than what's immediately in front.

All completed!

That very last race in the Elements DLC was absolutely mental.

Well done Yuffie great score, not even my absolute max on each bit could've topped that. Drifting isn't my favourite thing in this game so it was all about damage limitation for me.

Wow!!! No messing about there Lisa! I'm just starting out! Got to love the old style McLaren, would be great in a challenge but would assume all would need the relevant pack or season pass to take part.
