How to unlock the Exorcist achievement in Project Cars - Definitive Guide
From the main menu select 'Time Trial' and then choose a track you're comfortable with (I chose Greenwood Karting Circuit as its short) then change the 'Ghost Type' to 'Leaderboard'
Then press to move over to the leaderboard and use to page down (faster than just holding ) and find a very slow time to race against and press to use that ghost.
Press and then Select Car and choose one you're comfortable with.
Now simply post a better time than the ghost you selected which hopefully should be nice and simple. Make sure to not go off the track as this invalidates your time and id assume your competing time for this achievement. Achievement will pop a few seconds after you cross the line.

hey lads i made a video for anyone who may be confused as to how they can get this achievement :) enjoy
Pick Time Trial and a short track. Go to leaderboards, find a beatable time and press . Once you have beaten the chosen time this will unlock.
This trophy can be a bit of a pain to set up but with a bit of persistence, the following method should work and turn a potential 10/10 difficulty trophy into a 1/10.
- Start by entering the Time Trial section of the Main Menu.
- Select a short track like Oschersleben C Circuit and have the discipline set to Open Wheel
- Where it says Ghost Type, you will want it set to Use Best In Session.
- Go to select your car and choose the Formula A.
- Now that you are on track, you will want to complete about 5 slow laps of the track (Make sure they are not invalidated laps). The reason that you are setting slow laps is so that when it comes time to attempt this trophy, you can easily beat them.
- Once you have completed a few slow laps of the track, exit the session.
- You should be be back at the Time Trial car selection screen now. Press and you will return to the Time Trial menu. You will want to keep the exact same settings as you had before, except that this time, where it says Ghost Type, you will want that set to My Personal Best.
- Select your car and return to the track. You should now be going up against your Personal Best Ghost Time, which should be very easy for you to beat around the track. Once you beat the Ghost Time, the trophy should unlock.
The above method can be quite temperamental. If it does not work the first time around, try restarting your PlayStation and repeating the steps. If it still does not work, restart your PlayStation and try again on a different track.
If after several repeated attempts the above method still does not work, you may have to attempt this the way it was intended. In other words, find a car and track combination, download the 30th fastest Ghost Time from the leaderboards and then try to beat it. This can be considerably difficult though, and will only get more difficult as time goes on as the top 30 fastest times for each Track/Discipline combination become faster and faster.
The best thing to do is look for obscure combinations that do not have many competitive times set. As of writing, the Stockcar leaderboard times for many tracks are not very demanding, so most people could probably beat them with a little practice. Similarly, the leaderboards for the Azure Coast track are not very competitive either. Just make sure that you are racing a ghost car when you attempt this. You might beat one of the top 30 leaderboard times, but if you have not downloaded and beaten a specific ghost time, you will not unlock this trophy.
