So freakin' hard I think it deserves its own thread...

Anyone up to the x1 challenge(s) yet? Any tips? 8 seconds off bronze on the first (apparently EASY) challenge... This is going to take some effort! Or change my driving style...

I always thought this would drive like ridge racer or wipeout; but the car feels faster! Everything is a reflex action - act first think later...

Hey what level is this at?

Level 30. Just managed to bronze all the challenges and I'm now level 32 - you get a **** load of experience from the challenges!

Just watched the Monza one on Youtube... Wow It's like playing wipeout! Would it be easier with the game pad?

Woo now I've got three X1s

Theres one big driver aid which makes this challenge pretty easy; skid recovery! Just gives the car that extra grip.

Wow, just bronzed the Nurburgring challenge and that alone paid out 463,640 xp points. Not far off Lv31 now

Your not wrong when you said this is "So freakin' hard" Reppo.
I finished lap 1 at Nurby and i think my brain was still back in the pits. Sooooooo dam fast. Took me a while to realise how late you can brake and how much speed you can carry thru the slower hairpins.

EDIT:
Well the first half of Suzuka is impressive! Adrian Newey is a mad man for conceiving this car.
I silvered Monza in my first finishing attempt and boy what a pay out, 1,112,740 xp!

W W

Obtained the X2010 then threw it around the Nordschleife in 4:06,932!
Had 1 silly mistake so the lap didnt count. Will have to try again... shucks

OMG WHAT A RUSH!

Just lapped the Nordschelife in 3:52,578
At times I dont know how my brain kept up. The tightest parts of the Hatzenbach complex is pretty much flat in 4th and is psycho fast along with the last few kms of twisties. So much of the track can be taken at speeds that you cant fathom untill you give it a go and make it thru to corner/complex exit and crack up laughing.

The problem is i know there is more time to be found lol. But completing one lap without incident at this pace is plain crazy.

That sounds pretty effin' crazy Knappo.

Prop your boy up in front of the screen so he can get used to the speed.

Hopefully this works. Here is the replay file from the lap.

EDIT: LMAO this thing has so much grip (even when you reduce the wings to their lowest settings) that you can run full laps of the Indy 500 pit lane turns at 450kph without lifting!

Well done Knappo, i know it will be hard for many but i saw some vids of this thing on youtube and bloody hell its gonna require some concentration and reflex skill

still strugglin on this car, need tips on the suzuka track and nurby

any help please post

Suzuka you need to carry a shit lot of speed thru the flowing sweepers at the begining of the lap. Think i did them in 4th and only had the slightest of lifts on the throttle when changing directions, just to ensure no understeer developed as the sss tightened.

Nurby you need to be fast thru the first set of hairpins, there is oodles of grip.
The hairpin at the back of the track can be taken really really fast so dont be afraid to go in really deep. Same as turns 5-6, turn 5 can be taken quite fast!

For both tracks the really tricky part for me was the slow chicanes at the end of the lap. Nurby wasnt as tricky as Suzuka simply because at Suzuka the entry speed feels like its twice as fast and the chicane is harder to spot.

just did suzuka in 216.952 FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK nealry bronze FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK

PRACTISE PRACTISE make me happy 2.15.973 Bronze THNAK YOU!!!!!!!!

the short track Nurburgring GP/F

Finally after 20mins of trying and geting so close to BRONZE, i mad eit with my pb of 2:12:566 wasnt the cleanest but i am happy to own a X2010 YES YES YES

Good work mate. Cant wait to race you in it when im off my cap

I just entered my X2010 in the 200 mile Laguna Seca Enduro. With 43-45 second laps it wont take long to knock off the 90!

EDIT:
lol the race took only 1hr 17mins and i won by 45 laps

Mine took 2hrs 20 in a old classic jag, shall attack Suzuka 1000miles after new years!!! Man it's been a slog to this point but I am not done, b-spec is needed and my F1 Ferrari 2010 still ain't sitting in my garage

I golded the last of these today.

Damn, Suzuka was hard but these were worth the price of the game I reckon. A serious challenge.

Fuck this challenge at Suzuka with a DS3 controller. That is all

Got bronze on all 3 basically strait up.. but can only get to about 4 seconds of gold and thats with an all but perfect lap.. sooo fucking insane
