Have you got any advice on reducing your reaction time?

Mine seems pretty good based on the starts I make in Multiplayer but I’m not quite at .16 seconds yet.

u simply have to guess / anticipate. Just let go 2 seconds after the reds go out every time and eventually you'll get it. Took me about 5-10 mins.

Guy in front of me jumped the start on my second race (multilayer first). I thought I missed the start so released. Just luck for me.

I found a good method, select gas in 3 and the ers in hotlap, no but the car goes off! With this method I jump to the 2th try :)

Do you need to have the revs lit at a certain speed too, or is it just a case of releasing the A button as quick as possible after the lights go out, as I'm having major issues trying to get the revs right and then releasing A?

One of the trickier trophies in the game. This can be done on a race start in any game mode, as long as you set the race starts to manual. At the start hold down the button and hold the throttle, then when the starting lights go off release the button as fast as you can. The required reaction time of 0.16 seconds is pretty tight so this might take quite a few tries. I advise to set all your starts to manual while going for other trophies (e.g. during career) and try to get this naturally. If by the end of the game you still haven’t managed you can always start a single Grand Prix from the main menu and keep restarting the race until you get this.

For this trophy we must thank Bottas and his reaction at the start of the Austrian Grand Prix.
You can only get it with the blessing of the power of randomness. I stupidly counted to 3 after the 5th red light and released the clutch. Lots of restarts and someday you will get lucky. The main thing in the settings is not to forget to set manual start.
