How to unlock the Uncle Time achievement in Midnight Club: Los Angeles - Definitive Guide

I don't think many still play this, but someone commented on this above.

***The normal game (without South Central) has only 4 time trials, which is where the achievement comes from.***

The "complete edition" with South Central has 5 time trials. If you have the complete edition, as you progress through the career the South Central time trial will unlock BEFORE the 4th time trial on the normal game.

The achievement will NOT unlock after the first 4 time trials if you have the complete edition with South Central. This is because the South Central time trial does NOT go towards the "uncle time" achievement. Just continue to play through the career and another one will unlock in the hills. Once you finish that time trial, the achievement will unlock.

I came to it when I was about 60% done with the career...may or may not be the same for you.

1.73 ratio now, BUT WHO's COUNTING? :)

I like challenging games, others don't so much. Of course skill helps, but it's the good looks that take you to my level. lol.

Well, its been awhile but the solution says "about" 60%...so it may have been 62% or something. However, I'm not certain that the time trial is connected with the career percentage completion. I just gave that as a reference to where I was when it came up for me.

If I were you and you are at 60%, I would just keep playing the career. I believe its called the Hills....its the one that is in the mountains in the upper or north portion of the map. You are probably very close to unlocking the time trial. Hope that helps some!

thanks, but it is still not unlocking. This is like one of the last 4 achievements i need to get and im like halfway done with the other 3! They should make it so that it unlocks right after you bought the garage

yeah, I know. I thought that was weird too when it didnt unlock after the garage was bought. Keep at it and I'm sure it will pop up soon...its part of the game so it has to pop up as an option sometime. Complete older challenges if you kinda skipped around and havent done them all and see if that helps too.

"I have all WITHOUT ,, Times up'' i dont know why i don't have it on my map and in menu."

Times up is part of the original game and you will need to finish the first TT in that one to get the achievement.

The reason for it NOT appearing on your navigation map is because you have too many "unfinished" missions. Go to that area and finish more missions (not missions you have played, but finish new missions that you haven't played). That should get the spot to come back on your map. Hope that works!

I cannot get the 'Times Up' race to pop and doing races in the area dont change anything. I just get repeated races like the same wagers etc. Anyone have any ideas?

It's been a minute, King, but if you're progressing in the Hills area missions but not seeing it show up on your map, you may just need to progress in to story mode overall.

If you have the South Central version, you may need to get that time trial to appear first, before getting the one in the Hills to show up on your map. That's the only thing I can think of if the area missions aren't getting it to show up.

My career percentage doesn't seem to budge and all the races on my map seem to be the generic ones which just recycle :(

I have already done the South Central time trial too!

Thanks for the info. I have the Complete Edition (from Games on Demand) and I thought this Achievement was glitched when it didn't pop after I beat the first mission on the fourth time trial. I'm only at 50% completion.

easiest to do this in one of the earliest time trials you get, when the cars are slower to begin with and also are available in the easiest locations. when you are nearing the finish line, stop about 50 to 100 feet behind the checkpoint and wait until the counter reaches ~5 seconds. then blast off and try to cross the line with a second or less. this helps because every time you beat a time, the new time to beat is lower than your best so far, which can get really really hard if you do a perfect run your first try

This is a good "how to" for winning the time trials, but what are the 4 time trials that the achievement requires? I have seen 4 trials (SC included) and beat the first mission on each and no achievement.

Time trials will gradually become available as you progress through the game. There are a maximum of 4 at any given time, one for each area of LA. Each time trial opens with a single car that you can do run on. (After you fully complete the trial for the first car, other cars become available to attempt the trial on.) For each car, there are three levels of difficulty. Just beat the first tier in a time trial in each area.

After you open all timed races, simply win the first mission in them. In order to open all time trials you need to open all races and “landmark” races.
