[video] Make Money on FRIM St.

[Eudemon]

If you haven't got the Casino or are useless at Poker. If you get bored doing that same 20k race and hearing how Stuart is constantly getting ever closer to being violated by the "Wilder Brothers" then here's a good stretch of road I call FRIM St. If you can't guess why then please apply to be a member of Staff here right away!! :cheeky:

 

Anyway yeah, check it out but be warned it can be a good day and a slow day for you here especially if other players are around. But if you hit the sweet spot where you can combo 10+ passes then that 10k is easy as anything to get. I once got 240k in 10mins so go on give it a try... if you still play the game of course.

Good find. I'm sure many of us have great memories of cruising on this street in TDU1. :)

No guarantee that the traffic will be like that everytime though. :(

I actually do remember taking the "proper" racing lines on that switchback. :)

If I knew what you meant by this I'm almost certain it would be mildly offensive :umm:

 

I just about always had FRIM off when cruising in any case, not that I've played in ages.

Indeed, after 11am and just as at becomes night seems good times to run though. I think if you go from nothing to a combo of 17 you can get 10k within 30secs.

The level of understanding and comprehension required to be staff here is astronomically abnormal. You know that.

[Ryzza5]

That says a lot about our regular members :D

 

 

The good news is that they won't know what you're on about :whistle: :p

:hmmm: What is this?

I gave it a try last night. Works nicely. Though I've started doing it a different way.

 

Firstly as I wasn't running it with anyone so I switched online interactions off. Traffic was more consistent and it wouldn't vanish when the game decided it was time to join a new server. With the added bonus of avoiding Bugatti packs, though the AI like to play chicken at times so I pull onto would you could class as the hard shoulder when one is coming in the opposite direction.

 

As in the photo below, I go further east on the same road and start by the S-curve (black arrow) go west along that road all the way to the hairpin (red arrow) and just pull a u-turn you can do it quick enough without loosing too much FRIM and go back to the S-curve. It's around a 3 mile stretch one way. Easily make 15k each way, if the traffic is playing nice you can get 20k. I found this way to be better for me than going round that smaller section.

The bonus and downside with that route however is the 2 jumps as they can either rocket your FRIM if you do them unscathed or they can kill you dead with a crash or a throwoff to the side into a tree or building. :)

I've been pretty lucky at the jump only had one incident and that was heading west with a car turning into the junction in front of me after the jump so no time to react while the wheels are in the air. :lol:

 

I ran both again today to compare how they work for me. The distance of one loop and from the S-curve to the hairpin is both around the 3 mile mark. Didn't take an exact distance with it being so similar.

 

I've been running it with the V8 Atom, one 10min run of each, once up to full speed you're maxed out at 190/1MPH all the way. Which will help if that percentage of top speed thing is true.

 

On the loop I made 61k, 3 crashes only 1 large loss of 7.5k the other 2 where around the 350 mark.

 

On the longer run I got 90k, 4 crashes 2 large, can't recall the amount lost.

 

Think I'll try another car that can top 200 at some point at see how much it differs.
