Great guide, great grinding ahead :)

By SirBaxter77 on 02 Oct 2015 16:23

I would like to add for the bowling part, if you struggled like me to get the score, lower the drivatar difficulty to new racer. The difficulty adjusts your score. I was doing unbeatable, and the target score was impossible for me. Dropping the difficulty cut the target in half and was easily doable.

By Chiken Biscuit on 08 Oct 2015 01:22

Love the detail in the guide. I can also confirm the comments made by ITz l Skillz and OneShotMoofles. I also had the Rewind issue.

By TheIcemanCometh on 15 Oct 2015 01:09

Completing I2 didn't unlock J9 for me. Am I screwed? still got about 30 others to do, so I'm hoping you've just written down the wrong number that unlocks it :(

By Gizmo2k on 18 Oct 2015 18:32

Don't worry, re-raced it (didn't know you could do that) and it's unlocked the other race now :)

By Gizmo2k on 18 Oct 2015 18:54

My in game tracker says one percent more than my xbone tracker, did anyone else have that same problem?

By DirtyGlashoop on 26 Dec 2015 10:05

Well done for putting together all that detail.

Don't use +100% CR mods, use +100% XP mods instead. In a 1 hour race I can go up 15 levels and earn around 5 million CR from Prize Spins. And who turns on Rewind anyway?

By HolyHalfDead on 31 Jan 2016 08:07

I just finished another race, got 880,000 XP, went up 20 levels and got 13 million CR from Prize Spins.

By HolyHalfDead on 31 Jan 2016 09:36

@HolyHa1fDead, yeah Don Joewon Song has showed us this already: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sauB1ejNIKw

Yes I notes that.

Endurance races suck the big one

By ClaytThaGreat on 22 Mar 2016 08:19

I find endurance races the most fun but i was having issues with my headlights and rewinding. In the last few laps on Le Mans i hit somebody and my lights went out, when i rewind the lights were still out so i figured just keep going you need to pit for fuel anyway. After the pitstop lights were on and good to go. Later I made a mistake and used rewind and my lights were out again. So i drove the last 2 full laps in the dark. I always drive in cockpit view but i found in the dark its much better to do the tailing camera. Here you can see your brake lights reflect of the lines on the road.

By Nosi90 on 22 Jun 2016 12:49

Why would you drive the LMP cars with TCS and STM off when they have those on in real life?

By TheGreatKoala on 22 Sep 2016 11:24

I hate the autocross events as those cramp on my style which is going fast in a cool ass car like the corvette z06

By RAVENxSPEEDSTER on 13 Aug 2017 01:27

@TheGreatKoala I think it's for an extra challenge if you want. It's fun to do that from time to time.

By RAVENxSPEEDSTER on 13 Aug 2017 01:28

What is J 4 and I 2 ?

By oooo Smurf oooo on 06 Aug 2018 23:34

@oooo Smurf oooo It means unlock Top Gear Showcase(J) 4 and Track Day Shootout(I) 2

By HallowedClock8 on 21 Apr 2019 21:34

Great solution, helped me unlock the last few I needed. Didn’t realize there were specific requirements to unlock the showcases.

By Ethigy on 06 Jan 2020 05:14

I got the cache nearly full with about 20 laps to go on Sebring Enduro and then cache completely full in last two laps. I've never seen that message before and I unplug the xbox when not in use. OG Xbox. Maybe don't let an Enduro be the last event in case a full cache prevents the achievement from popping.

By planchetflaw on 08 Feb 2021 09:17

Also if you have VIP you earn the same amount for the race. Example: One of the Endurance races was giving 150,000 Cr for just coming in first. With having VIP you'll get the 150K plus another 150K so you'll get 300K for it plus what you have set for assists. Plus if you level up the Affinity level for the Manufacturer you'll earn Cr from that too. If you equip 3 60% mods you'll get another 270K.

By AH GamerScore on 01 Oct 2015 19:45

just something to note from someone who did the endurance races already. for the Sebring 300, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend using the Audi e-Tron quattro. It is the only AWD LMP1 on offer, and you are going to want that for a rainy Sebring if you use no TCS/STM like me. It prevents the race from becoming a nightmare.

Also, I recommend turning OFF simulation damage not because of pit stops but because once you are 50%+ done with an endurance race, there seems to be issues with rewind functionality. Sometimes it will NOT rewind at all, then when it does it will go back to the last time you tried to rewind and it failed. You can end up racing an extra 10-15 laps by the end if you end up crashing out and limping along with a broken car. Just use cosmetic damage so that if you have a major crash and can't rewind, you won't be totally screwed.

Thank you, I'm on the second series of volume 5, and have around 40% of the show cases done, when it unlocks I'll try to remember to post what it was that unlocked it.

By Keyb0ardasaurus on 27 Sep 2015 16:47

@T THURMN; All of the showcases & career races have "goals", the most in career: Complete the race and finish 3rd or higher. And in showcases you must win. So be sure if you do endurance races that you can handle the niveau- and make PIT STOPS. Otherwise you've just did 1h-2.30hrs for nothing!

By Rotcat on 16 Jan 2016 15:27

What does this mean

By Hypas on 25 Sep 2015 13:32

It means some items for the achievement have to be unlocked because some of the Showcase Events are unlocked as you play. In other words, you can't get it right at the beginning of the game.

By WhoIsJohn117 on 26 Sep 2015 02:12

What are the unlock conditions for the venom passing challenge? If I select it I get a message saying unlock criteria unknown.

By Keyb0ardasaurus on 26 Sep 2015 20:00

@Keyb0ardasaurus I can't QUITE remember what it is. I believe you have to complete another showcase or do the campaign. Either way, if you do the other achievements and play the single player until volume 5 is done (required for a few achievements and showcase unlocks) you will unlock it.

By Hypas on 26 Sep 2015 23:43

The Hennessey Venom Challenge unlocks after the Bugatti Passing Challenge in the same group.

By XbAndy360 on 27 Sep 2015 18:19

? do you have to win them or just do them?

By GRM T THURMN on 27 Nov 2015 02:47

*Sorry I did only Endurance races, in the rest is it variable, just look right on your screen when you'll decide to start the race.*

By Rotcat on 17 Jan 2016 16:26

How long a race takes does not effect how easy it is.

By HolyHalfDead on 21 Jul 2016 04:31

Switch it to the easiest drivatar setting, it will make the races much easier including endurance.

During your Career, you will get presented with Showcases. These are extra races in all sorts of motorsports. Overtaking cars, head to head racing, endurance. From your Career Menu, you can open the Showcases and play them one at a time. These are not extremely hard if you think of these pointers:

Drivatar Difficulty influences the "required score" on several tracks
Assists are fully allowed where needed
A lot of Showcases allow for the use of Mod Cards
Simulation Damages influences your amount of fuel as well.

Some are extremely long to finish but being a Showcase, you can pause the game at any time and take a break. Be prepared to invest at least 25H in completing all these.
