I just picked this up, I'm terrible at racing and not much of a car person, but I'm a huge Top Gear fan and love being able to do laps around the test track. I'm down for getting my rear end kicked by other goons (360). GT: JXPrime

Is it even possible to get a 1:30 or better time on Top Gear with the Suzuki Liana like on the show in this game?

I don't think anyone sniffed the 1:30s in the Liana. They were all 1:40 or higher?

I wish they had a mode for just a single lap on the TG track from a standing start...make me feel like a NSIARPC for a bit.

It's a Race!

To submit your time, you will need to take a picture of the screen and post it in this thread, clearly showing the PI, Car Model, lap time, and the area where the dirty lap marker would show up if you run a dirty lap. The picture should be legible.


Week One
Event 1: C-Class at Iberian Full Reverse [car must remain *STOCK*, no upgrades]

Event 2: A-Class at Hockenheim National [all upgrades free]

Good luck!

Note: All times referenced are US Central times.

I'd like to try this, but I don't know what a PI is, or if I need to be in a goon group/guild/whatever it's called. Also, when you say all upgrades free, what do you mean by that? Also also, what's a dirty lap?

Is it your lap from a standing start or just fastest time you can muster?

I'm terrible at this. And gently caress that Hockenheim course.

Another stupid question...the upgraded cars...is the only way to do that through career mode? Can you somehow upgrade a car just in the free play/hot lap thing?

Did the S class one, that's a hard track for me to not get a dirty lap on. I'll have to give that a short some more later. I'm on the leaderboard in my usual dismal place.

Edit: did the A class one in a clean lap!
