How to unlock the Gym-Carnage achievement in DiRT 3 - Definitive Guide
First thing work your multiplier up to 3x by pulling off tricks and be careful not to smash as you will reduce the multiplier. Once the 3x multiplier is reached drive through the level going for all of the yellow smash blocks as fast as you can without crashing. You will net 27,000 for each group of three and will quickly gather a large score. Smashing all the blocks should get you over 500,000 but if not just pull off another couple of tricks to get over the line.
I easily got a score of 550,000 using this method
Make sure to build up that 3x multiplier, and do as many tricks as you can, trying to not repeat the same thing too many times. Aim for the smashes, air and drifts as they give you the most points for the time.
Alternatively, you can wait until you rpogress through the game, and unlock the Monaco - Hercules map. Just chain together as many different tricks as possible in a run on this map,a nd you can easily attain over 700,000 points!
Here is an example of what you are trying to do:
1. Air Jump off the start, then straight into second air jump
2. Drift straight ahead and to the right (first drift chute)
3. Spin in the zone right out of the drift
4. Drift back through same chute going other way
5. Drift through zone on either left or right
6. Smash one of the two rows of blocks
7. Donut (or spin)
8. Smash other set of blocks, repeat on other side
9. Donut (or spin)
10. Return over air jump to first drift chute
11. Drift through, then drift through trailers
12. Spin
13. Drift through trailers second time
14. Spin
15. Drift through chute
16. Donut
17. Drift through trailers once again
18. Spin (if there's enough time)
YouTube link below shows part of the 500,000 run I had (game only lets you upload 30 seconds).
I wasn't sure if I'd get this achievement by the time I was done with the single player game but as I kept playing the gymkhana championships I would get closer and closer to 500,000 every run.
This run was well over 600,000. Sorry there are no scores, I had to record the replay from my WP7.
This can be quite challenging. You get 1:30 in Gymkhana to rack up as many points as you can. Your short term goal is to get to x3 multiplier and stay there. You need to keep performing tricks or it will drop, you need to avoid performing too many of the same trick close together or it will drop and you absolutely cannot hit things or it will drop a lot. The smash blocks are useful to wait until you have a high multiplier to grab since they are very quick and easy and still give good points. Try and work your way around the arena, stringing tricks together. If you can get your multiplier to x3 and keep it there for most of the event then you should get this. It's all about practice. Also remember your flashbacks, if you ram a wall and lose your multiplier on an otherwise good run, rewind and pretend like it never happened. I did this in the Monaco, Port Hercule. I found that I was doing quite significantly better there than any of the other tracks I'd tried. In the video run I got over 600,000 quite easily so you can copy the track and the route if you like, if you pull it off you should get the score needed.
Your first opportunity at this achievement is the event at the end of the Gymkhana tutorial. Make sure to build up that 3x multiplier, and do as many tricks as you can, trying to not repeat the same thing too many times. Aim for the smashes, air and drifts as they give you the most points for the time.
Here is an example of what you are trying to do:
Note: Later on in the game you will get more chances at this achievement. If you are struggling with the above method, it is possible to get 600,000+ on L.A. Coliseum.
You have survived a round of Outbreak without being infected (Pro Tour & Jam Session)
A very tricky achievement. First, you must play Outbreak, part of party mode in the pro tour online. Make sure you spawn clean, and then pick the best hiding spot you can. Try to pick one so that all infected must come from behind you, and you have a clear escape route in front of you. If you manage to survive 2:00, you will gain this achievement.
Cheeze It! - 10
You evaded the cats, won the game and earned the fans
You must be selected as the mouse for your team first. You will be the mouse if you are put into a Mini Cooper S, even though you selected something else. The objective is for the mouse of each team to finish before the other, and the cats (remaining players) are out to make the mouse's path to the finish miserable. Avoid getting hit and spun out by the other team's cats, while trying to stay ahead of the other Mini Cooper S. If you manage to finish first as the mouse, you will gain this achievement after the race.
Flag Stealer - 10
You stole the flag from the opposing team 5 times in a game of Transporter (Pro Tour)
In the game mode Transporter (part of party mode from the pro tour selection), you will need to steal 5 flags from opponents. This is done by smashing into them. Once someone grabs a flag, they will be shown to everyone by a marker, and people will begin chasing them. You're best bet is to involve yourself in pile-ups with the flag, that way you pass the flag amongst each other many times before anyone can score. This achievement will unlock during the game.
Battered Battersea - 50
You completed 100% of the Battersea Compound Missions
There are 80 total missions to be done within the Battersea. There are a total of 3 zones that you unlock with completion of the seasons in the Dirt Tour. 8 missions are universal and span across all zones, while the others are zone specific.

As an option, I recommend the MONACO location, PORT HERCULE track.
This track can be found both in the DIRT TOUR mode in the main seasons and in the WORLD TOUR subseasons, as well as in the MULTIPLAYER and SINGLEPLAYER modes in the SINGLE RACE submode.
The main rule is NOT to crash into any obstacles, otherwise the score multiplier will drop.
If you crash, just press START and select RESTART.
Try to collect points with the "x3" multiplier.
