How to unlock the Self Preservation Society achievement in DiRT 3 - Definitive Guide
just don't crash while driving a Mini.
I recommend doing this one in the "Rockstar Transworld Clash",
the event is called "Tsavo Classic Shield"
Select the race
Choose '60's
and there's the Mini
Note:
You can get multiple achievements in the same race, if you turn of all the assist.
If you do this you'll also get the "Assistance is Futile" achievement.
The first Rally event in the Dirt Tour with the 60's class available is in Season 1 - Rockstar Transworld Clash (Top segment) 'Tsavo Classic Shield'.
You dont have to do this specific event but this is the first event in the Dirt Tour that the Mini is available for use, select the event and select the class 60's and select any of the Mini Cooper S models (Team choice doesnt matter)
Now you need to not only complete the rally without damaging but you must also WIN so i suggest you race on the lowest difficulty (1), take it easy, follow the suggested braking line and dont forget to make use of your flashbacks.
It's ok to go off the main track a bit as long as the car doesnt hit anything and the small fences (Thin poles and tape) are OK to hit too.
The achievement will pop at the loading screen, the event is a 2 stage event so if you happen to mess up the first go you have another go without wasting your time, good luck.
Select the event called Tsavo Classic Shield and pick one of the 1960's Mini Coopers
Achievement will pop as the cut-scene starts once you've WON the race, You may also pop the Rally Evolution Achievement (2 for 20G)
There are a lot of Mini's in the 60's class of rally cars. So when you do a rally event that gives the 60's as an option, choose it and then choose a mini cooper. An early race like this is the "Tsavo Classic Shield" In the Transworld Clash event of Season 1. With difficulty on 1 for the easiest time you need to win this race without taking damage. You should be able to drive fairly carefully on the lowest difficulty and still win but remember you have your flashbacks, so if you do damage your car, you can just rewind and pretend it didn't happen. Win the race and the trophy is yours.
During the first season, under "Rockstar Transworld Clash", event #2, you can select a mini under the 60s discipline. Set the difficulty to 1, and complete a clean race. Use rewinds if you hit anything.

Personally, I was able to open the achievement quite easily:
DIRT TOUR
Season 1
bremo BLAST
LANTOSQUE HISTORIC RUN
60's
MINI COOPER S (auto)
BOIS NOIR (first race)
The track is quite simple, the road is wide enough for a MINI, and on easy difficulty you can take your time and take turns carefully.
Closer to the finish line, I struck the rock twice, but rewinding solved the problem, and when I reached the finish line (I took first place), after the race results, the achievement fell out during loading.
