The tip is more which variation of course that they are available on. Other than that the achievement was pretty straight forward

For me the description for Bridge Out was a bit misleading.

I found this video (which I take no credit for) that helped finish this last signature takedown:

I just thought I would offer my two cents on this. This achievement is pretty self-explanatory on what to do, and there is no easy way around it, because this requires an equal amount of luck and skill.

However, with that being said, I was able to find a strategy that seemed to work very well for me, and in using it, I was able to knock out my last four takedowns (Depot-lition, Rock the Clock, Stairs in their Eyes, and Take-Out Takedown) in about an hour.

I call it the Babysitting strategy. The term was coined for Need For Speed Carbon (can't remember by who), but the name just fits for this as well, as you are essentially sitting back and watching the last few cars, hanging back just enough so that they stay with you but not far ahead enough for them to use their nitrous. Anyways, what you want to do is use a fast car (I chose the Xbox 360 car, because of its fantastic handling and blistering speed), and pick whatever race your takedown is available on.

When the race starts, drive like normal for a bit, but don't use any nitrous. Make sure that you stay near the middle of the pack, not too far behind, and not too far in front.This will allow the other cars to catch up to you, and will begin their typical sideswiping of you, etc. Now, when this starts to happen, and you begin to near the Takedown location, let off the gas, so that your car slows down to around the 120 mark or so; the other racers around you will follow suit, and will actually slow down to stay with you.

Granted, not every car will do this: In races, whoever had first seemed to just take off, as well as second. But everyone else slowed down with me, and this made setting them up for a takedown in a certain area MUCH easier. As long as you don't use nitrous, they typically won't either, and will continue to rub paint with you, etc.. In Road Rages, everyone seemed to hover around me, and no one took off blindly ahead. When you get to the area of interest, e.g. the bus depot, clocktower, etc., this is when you want to slam on the nitrous and do whatever you can to smash one of the slow moving computers.

This is why you want to use a fast car, since a better acceleration means more force behind a hit when using nitrous. The poor computers, since they are moving so slow, get pinballed when you boost into them, and become significantly easier to launch into something. Granted, this will still take several tries, as there is still a ridiculous amount of luck and frustration that goes into this, but by doing this strategy, I was able to finish off my last few takedowns with relative ease.

This was my first guide, and I hope that it was clear and descriptive enough for someone to benefit. In short, when you start to get near where a Signature takedown needs to take place, let off the gas and cruise around 120 or 130, and this will allow some of the other computers to slow down and to swarm around you. You can then bump into them and move them into position, and then at the last possible second, slam on the nitrous and try and force them into the wall, pillar, etc.

I really hope that this helps, and if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to message me on here. This will work if done correctly, so hopefully you have some luck too in finishing off your last few frustrating takedowns =)

EDIT: Forgot to mention this, but the earlier the rank a race is available on, the better. As the ranks go higher the AI gets better and faster, so picking the lowest rank possible when attempting a race is a small way to help yourself. I was racing in the Insane rank and my strategy still worked, but still, it can't hurt to have some dumbed out AI racing against you XD

Staying in the back of the pack and not using boost worked, thanks!

I like your method and it would work but how the fuck do you lure them into a shortcut. Every time I try I end up taking them down trying to force them into the shortcut

Glad to hear it worked STLfan!

Morsey, the way to get them into shortcuts is...well, it requires a bit of luck. Some takedowns, like the Bus Depot takedown for example, will still count if you smash them into the shortcut divider (where the main track and shortcut split. Another one, the Strike! takedown, I got by actually smashing someone into the back of the Bowling Alley building. Basically, you have to sort of "guide" them into it by running into the side of them, but not so hard as to where they veer wildy.

Which takedowns do you need, I may be able to help a bit more if I knew which ones you were stuck on?

I know no-one probably pays any attention to this anymore, but I can't get stairs in their eyes to save my life. Spent nearly 3 hours trying. None of the AI are stupid enough to drive up the middle and if you don't hit it dead on they just slide along the wall and don't crash. -_-

Showbiz, I ended up having one of the AI cars run into the back of me, and that caused him to swerve right to try and get free, right into the middle wall. I had something similar happen to me on Sunshine Keys with the Harbor takedown (I can't remember the name, but it may have been "Catch of the Day", or something along those lines). ANYWAY, I tried for three hours, couldn't get it for the life of me, and finally, a car rear-ended me and bounced off, just barely grazing the wall, and it somehow counted for me. I know it's not much of a solution to your problem (as this is hugely luck based) but, I can confirm that this is a strategy that works occasionally if you're out of options. Just try and get barely in front of them, literally so that you two are touching bumper to fender, and hopefully their AI wonks out and tries to bounce off you into the wall. If this doesn't work, feel free to PM me, and hopefully we can brainstorm some solutions to your issue.

If you're having trouble lining up the AI opponents, try the '3rd person' view. I'm a bit weird and always use the in-car view, and couldn't get Stairs in Their Eyes until I changed the view with the Y button :-) Thank you for your advice, only four to go!

@Capt Poopey It makes me happy that people this much later are still benefiting from the solution. Thats a good point though that I didnt even think about...I guess I just assumed everyone would be in third person to try and help themselves line up better.

Glad it helped you though, I hope you get the rest finished off soon! If you need any more help, feel free to message me, and I'll do my best to help you out.

Not too difficult in the end. Going slow in race mode really helped.

Welcome

Here is a video guide for all signature takedowns.

Tips:
1. Most of these takedowns are easier to be done on "Road Rage" mode since its easier to takedown other rivals on this mode.

2. Sometime choosing a slowest car or driving slowly really helps with hardest takedowns or very specific ones.

In general you should be able to get most of the signatures by just playing the game normally so dont bother going for them any sooner.
