Still stuck on these stupid multiplayer races, just can't do them. How do you start in a race. In some games you just rev it up to the limiter and it doies it all for you and some you have to balance it at the right revs to start and control the wheel spin, whats the best way of doing it on test drive plus any other dricing tips would help, im useless at them.

I don't know, been trying differnt things, my online ranking must rubbish, lost so muc. If someone could just lay out what to do, race, car, how to do the race, that would be supurb (and before you say use a saleen, I can't drive them).

pick ones ending in like 20-30 minutes, then learn the course, then thrash the time

also, dont just go for speed challenges

hope this helps

ohh and try and get on while the americans are sleeping, they love the diner stuff for some reason rolleyesa

absolutely no idea mate, skip it and try another, obviously some sort of cheat of keeping the current car without changing or summin :)

if you get wheel spin, in almost any car that you start in 1st, you loose time. Any hint of wheel spin.... Certain cars accelerate faster with 1/4 throttle through the gears you normally get wheel spin in... Nurse that throttle!

Right , one more thing, got the multiplayer races sorted (apart form club races) but I want to make sure the satern sky is the only satern becouse im having problems with the coriur race in the south west corner of the map, only a few secounds out so I should get it eventully.

yes.. it is (thankfully) the only current Saturn car. Kind of a bizarre addition to the game if you ask me...

Right, having some real problems again. Its the Denis coriuer mission where you can only use a saterun. It down in the south west corner of the map and it 10 miles in 6 mins, easy in any other car, but this car is so ..... slow.
