Top Gear Test Track Laptimes

[DJ-Daz]

Are you a star in a reasonably priced car?
Get your laptimes in.
Car: Chevrolet Lacetti only.

how the hell can you unlock the track! i wanted a go in arcade but bosh! no way

[BackedOut_]

I thing you need to be a certain lvl or complete the challenges . I'm only at lvl 9 so far so I can't do it just yet.

[DJ-Daz]

Yep level 4 to unlock the challenge, then you need to finish 1st in a VW campervan. Then you can drive it all day long in practice or arcade mode. No Laccetti though.

I think we need to make a new Thread

I have unlocked it, after 50 attempts. Cheating Computer cutting you up, or touching your back end so you stop!!!!

Got to 2nd on 1st lap and then got to first on the hammer head after closing the gap.
Time in the VW was:

lap 1: 2:12
lap 2: 2:09

Total time was: 4:21

4:30:546 (was the last time i seen in the reply......... as you have to pause it its not 100% spot on)

Not sure on the miller seconds.

So what we need to do now, is all pick a Ok Priced Car. make a new Thread and post our times on there!!!

[theENIGMATRON]

To give you a heads up
Am going to make this into a competition

I will offer a £10 M&Ms voucher for the winner and maybe a £5 for the runner up.
There will be a Max post of 2 entries per person,
A Video of the Replay is required with some paper with your name (stop you nicking shit of the net lol)

I will post all the rules and a new thread soon, But the thread will be monitored so no editing or re uploading new videos.

[DJ-Daz]

Export the replay file, and upload it, that will give you proof.

The Car?
I think something low down the list bit still a little sport, otherwise driving the track in a fiat 500 will be very boring.
Possibly:
Suzuki Swift Sport '07
Mini Cooper '07
Tesla Roadster '08 (I think the other two are the better choice).

After that you get into the hypercars, and it just gets silly.
What do you think?

[theENIGMATRON]

I was trying it on the Honda CZ 10 or something like that anyway,
its mid range,

(*Trying to get closest to the Top Gear Car Ish lol*)

Try it with that see how you think.
Ill try your cars you listed and report back

The reply viewer may be a little hard.
As its pretty impossible to see the very last second when you cross the line.
Especially when it can be coming down to miller seconds on who wins.

how we supposed to upload the file? i did export it to the XMB but im stumped now :face palm:

also i didnt find a single one of the TG test cars, so we need something suitably humdrum to drive

[DJ-Daz]

I say it's a british circuit, so it should be a british car:
The mini cooper.
oh wait, it's german.
There's no ariel atom, there's only TVR.

You need to copy it to another drive/usb stick, copy that to a PC, then either zip or rar, then add the attachment.

It's easier than it sounds, and for a tech guy... you really shouldn't be asking, ah the shame.
