Just did Tantalus for the first time.. and got gold! :blink: basic time - 6:46.51 penalty - 0:17.64 total - 7:04.15 Awesome route! I ignored the woman at one stage because I remember what you guys said, but I think I did it at a different place. Turns out it was quicker! If you want to know where I went different, try meeting me online. The car? Noble M400 Stage 3 :tt: edit: down to a 6:56 including 17 second penalty 40 of those points were lost inside the crater too.

Favourite car guys? We have played the game for a good while now and I wanted to know your most used car and why.

Mine = TVR Sagaris, Group C. Car now has 3.6k on the clock. Handles amazingly and accelerates like no ones business, it can keep up with most group B cars and could be compared to the Ford GT imho.

I'm currently sat in a hotel in leeds, playing TDU on my 360 connected to a shitey 20" hotelTV! Still, it means I can rattle through the single player challenges left to do, that and discover ALL the island :beat: God thats tedious... drive...look at map... drive... look at map...etc

Do you take it everywhere cocopops? :D I think my favourite car was the Mercedes SL65 AMG. Great for just cruising, and monster power at 730 bhp. Shame about the poxy 155 mph limiter.. I think the Ascari KZ1 is my other favourite, seriously fast, rare, and sounds great. B)

CP, What a good idea to take it away on business with you. I normally just get pissed with the locals if I go away but some nights I cant if I have an important client meeting somewhere the next day.

Hi Crimson, any chance you can add me to the club too when your get a min :-)

Had a couple of bargains in the trade system, bought a stage 3 ferrari enzo for $1000, and one of those rare crysler ME 4 12's for $10000, that car can't half shift! shame there are no tuners for the car tho, max's out at about 240mph but it's lightning quick off the line and sounds awesome!

bought a koni CC8S from new and tuned it to stage 3, not impressed with it tho. It's a bugger to keep in a straight line!

I got a 360 and test drive for christmas, then bought a 32"hd tv to play it on! AWESOME, Ive just completed the ''Tour of the island' race on the MV Agusta F4 Tamburini in 45:43.53! Just bought myself the Mclaren F1 GTR for 'The millionaire's challange'. Now I just need to get on xboxlive!

Beanie, Do the millionaire challenge on a bike as the traffic on the road, and against it in places, proves to be very hard in a car and you could miss your goal. Which would be very annoying seeing as that race takes just about an hour of your time. Use the GTR / F1 for the tour of the island. With no traffic and a 50mph+ top end over a bike you should beat your previous time no problem also there are some great short cuts on there. - Noble.

ive been mincing about on TDU for a weke now, im essentially exploring the island to try and get the "drive every road" achievement unlocked lol. but Ive done a few of the northeast coastal deliveries, much easier as there is less traffic about there. I purchased the TVR sag, its "ok" but its a little bit of a pig mid bend lmao. Ill have to add mr crimson and sneak into the vx club lol

My latest attempt to become "Ace" (only need Tantalus) resulted in missing out on the gold cup by just 3 seconds :angry:
