How to unlock the Tournament Ace achievement in WipEout HD - Definitive Guide
This may seem like a daunting task, but even I (who can barely scrape a win together on Skilled difficulty) managed to complete it.
Enter Racebox and set up the following:
Race Type: Tournament
Speed Class: Venom
Difficulty: Skilled
Weapons: Off (this is the important bit)
Hit X, then pick a track you're comfortable with and add it to the Tournament eight times using the Square button. I used Anulpha Pass (Forward) - hey, if you're going to attempt to Beat Zico, you need to know it pretty well ;) I then chose one of the Icarus racers - Anulpha Pass is smooth enough that you don't need decent handling, and the top speed of the craft helped me.
With this setup, I found races pretty easy to win - most of the time I could finish the first lap in 4th-5th place, and by the end of the second lap I was either 1st or 2nd. It helps to take the "high road" in Anulpha Pass (the elevated straight bit), though I'd avoid it on the first lap if it was crowded. I also managed to squeeze in a barrel roll most of the time, which is a nice little speed boost - just try not to boost into the back of one of the AIs.
Just make sure the Weapons are off, and you should be fine :)

I also used weapons (To work towards 500 absorbs) but I followed the rest and worked perfectly +1 from me

Great solution, thankyou, although I actually used weapons as well (didn't try it without so not sure how I would have gone there) and got the trophy on my first attempt. I up-voted your solution as it definitely helped me get this trophy. Cheers!

Do exactly as Moobaa's guide says but I've got 1 addition to make life a little easier. Start it up in 2-Player & leave P2 idle, this will actually slow down the other ships as to create a "catch-up" -esque effect for P2 making it easier for you to win each race.
This is a very easy Silver trophy if you do what I say. Go into "Racebox" then select "Tournament" and put the speed class on whatever your comfortable with (I chose Phantom), then put the Elite difficulty on Skilled. Now you will want to pick the tracks, press on Anulpha Pass (Forward) to add it to the list, do this until there is 8 Anulpha Pass (Forward)s in the track list. Now just make sure to come first place in all 8 races, if you don't come first you will have to retry and do it all again. The trophy will unlock upon coming first in all 8 of the races.

We go into the designer, select Tournament, medium difficulty level and 8 tracks that are more convenient for your victory (you can have 8 of the same ones), weapons, if desired, can be disabled. You need to be first on all 8 tracks.
