How to unlock the By a Mile achievement in Grand Theft Auto 3 - Definitive Guide

“Turismo” is the first Pay-Phone mission given to you by El Burro in the Portland island of the game. Pay-Phone missions are represented by the telephone icon on the minimap. This mission requires you to compete in a street race with three other drivers. You need to race through the checkpoints marked on your minimap and win the race in order to complete the mission. Once you complete all pay-phone missions for El Burro you can replay the “Turismo” mission again at the same pay-phone.

In order to unlock this trophy, you need to complete the race in under 180 seconds. You have a timer in the top right corner of the screen. You will need a fast car in order to get the required time. I used the Banshee which you can steal from the car shop at the northern area of Portland in Saint Marks. Otherwise a Sentinel should do the job as well. Try and get out in front of the other drivers as early as you can as they drive very recklessly and can quickly knock you off the road. If you are using cheats, then you can use the Health cheat to fix your car. Once you finish the race within the required time, the mission will complete and the trophy will unlock. If you feel as if you aren’t going to complete the race in under 180 seconds, then purposefully fail the mission by exiting your car.

The below video shows how to complete the race in under 180 seconds.

The Turismo race is available in telephone missions on the 1st Portland island from El Burro. And you can go through it an infinite number of times. The main thing is that you need a fast car, like a Banshee.

Banshee is always located on the first island in RentECar, next to the fire station and gas station

I crashed into the road 3 times because it was not entirely clear. where to turn, in the end there were 10 seconds left when I arrived at the finish, so it’s very difficult to screw up this race

I had problems with the banshee; it was constantly skidding from any blows. That's why I used a more controllable car. I was in a taxi; the characteristics of a police car are also suitable, of which there are a lot of them in the city. I don't think there will be any problems. I passed it myself the first time - drive carefully and the trophy is yours.

I took a taxi, which is available for 100 passengers. It turned out to pass carefully and slowly in 160 seconds.

The Turismo assignment is issued by El Burro via street telephone.

A method for the completely lazy. We take Banshee, include code to improve controls and slow down time. Then we just drive slowly. The fact is that the time on the timer will also go slower, and you (with perfect control) will easily enter any turn without releasing the gas at all. My result with this method was only 119 seconds - you yourself understand that the reserve of time is huge.

Use the Banshee, which is located in the car dealership in Harbor. The mission can also be completed when Stanton Island opens, before the mission "Sayonara Salvatore".
