Key thing to remember is that at 60mph a mile takes a minute so go at a steady pace and only do serious speed when you can but don't go nuts. If you have to 12 miles in 8mins then average 100mph and you'll do it easy. Honestly that is the easiest method to do these. Also with about 2 miles to go cruise at about 90mph and watch for traffic at all times, slow at hills, slow at junctions etc and try not to stay behind the traffic unless you're on a hill. I did 17 of these in one night using an ME 412, those 200mph blasts when I could meant I completed most with about 90secs to 2mins to spare !

I have put 300 miles on my CLK-GTR and now about 400 on my F40 and the Rturbo has about 100 I think bring me a grand total thus far of ........ 28,889.05 miles. (directly from the info page)

The Polished Aluminium car is the Shelby GR-1 Concept, it's great to watch everything including other cars reflect in your bodywork.

That is just signature worthy and you're new to the board, nice going ! :excited:

Hey there EiGHT welcome to the board man and I have to agree I have always loved the look of a black 996 Turbo and the new Rturbo has given me that small possibility of owning one ...even if it is virtual and not real and not mine... I'm depressed. :( LOL Enjoy the board ! :bananadance:

Hi there Steve, The Lexus dealer is right up North close to the British Independents that houses McLaren and Ascari but if you haven't downloaded the FREE Lexus IS350 from the Marketplace you won't see it as an active dealer, you will only see the dealer itself but not be able to enter. As for the other locations I can point you to this map that shows everything on TDU, I don't know who created it or even who uploaded it but it's great resource and I hope it helps you out: [TDU HUGE Complete Map] (1Mb)

Well that was an interesting intro but an intro all the same ! Welcome to the board and I don't know if you know but the CLK-GTR was released for the 360 last week so that's another Mercedes to add to the list of great Merc's in this game. Hope you enjoy it here ! :D

Noticed on some forums linking to these images that they were worried about the Ferrari Prancing horse looking Gray on the F40's wheel, this is because of the lighting, it is Yellow so don't worry, Pic shown of this added to the first post. :D

Some stills from the video I was recording, I don't do it all the time but I fancied recording this due to it being a good set of cars and HCm. :) Also found out the top speed of the CLK-GTR stock.

Hi there Xtc welcome to the board and very nice intro too. Obviously like many of us here you're a complete car nut and this game fills so many holes that have been open in car games of the last 20 years !! See you on the island!

Yeah I'll be there, my mates are skint until next week so no fun this weekend. :(

Alright I have had a few PM's about this so I guess it's about time I posted how this is done, after all it has been about 6months. lol Alrighty first things first you will need to find out some method of transferring your Photo file from your Xbox 360 to your PC. Now there are about 4 means to do this but as they involve some serious modifications and soldering and could run the risk of damaging your HDD or even your 360 itself we will not be discussing those but feel free to search for them yourself if you want to pursue that method. Anyway there's 2 easy methods* but they require a purchase, these 2 are the Datel Transfer Kit and the XSATA device, These range from $15/50 (£10/40). !!! DO NOT INSTALL THE DRIVERS OR FILES YOU GET ON THE CD, YOU DON'T NEED THEM AND THEY WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CAUSE YOU PROBLEMS !!! *** DOWNLOAD THESE DRIVERS INSTEAD *** First of all you require 2 pieces of software: Xplorer 360 (right-click Save As) and WinHex (You'll have to search for this). Step #1: Transfer your Photo file to your device by either copying to a Memory Card or just connecting your XSATA device directly via USB. Step #2: Open Xplorer 360 and select Drive > Hard Drive or Memcard. Step #3: Select the Partition which lists info like the below. Find the Folder shown below and then select your Photo file. Now either Drag and drop or Right-click > Extract: Step #4: Open WinHex. Step #5: The photo file is a hex file as you can see by all the characters on your screen but those characters are actually your photo files in JPG format. To extract them we need to use WinHex by Step #6: Select JPG format and choose a folder to save to and click OK. Step #7: That's it, goto the folder you specified and look at your shiny new pics !! Note not all will extract sucessfully but some might be saveable if opened in Photoshop or the like and may just need a small crop. Enjoy !! *Note: This is just a guide, it may and it may not work for your system, you follow it at your own risk. Should anything go wrong it's on your own head be it, we just showed you a method that worked for us and others.

Hi there B1gSmurf (are you blue by any chance?) welcome to the board and I'm sure we'll see you around on the island. Also check out the threads in the TDU section as there are a couple of cruises coming up in the next few days.

That sounds very cool actually, I should be able to make Sunday and I'll be in an Rturbo.

If I knew of the page that I could link to I would add it in but I haven't been able to find anything to link to. :( And welcome to the board Rihani, a lot of people have been waiting for a game like this, myself included.

Hi there TOOL, welcome to the board and yeah this game is a great deal of fun, in fact I been waiting for a game like this for ages !

Carlist anyone? Some more still tba but good none the less: http://forzamotorsport.net/news/announcements/carlist.htm

The F40 is from 1987 and was one of the first road cars to do 200mph and is completely raw which is why it's regarded in history as one of the ultimate supercars. You have to remember Atari would have to source each of these cars to get the recording of the engine sound right and also record at 500rpm intervals all the way to redline (so I hear) to get even close to an accurate representation and I don't think there's many people around or Atari had the resources and money to send their people out to do all of this. I have a feeling TDU2 will be better in this respect though as Atari aren't in as much trouble and it's what the community wants, we don't want TDU to follow PD's path of engine sound application in it's games, these cars have amazing sounds and hopefully the next game will allow us to experience them. :)

Re: TDU Central Competiton #1 Still going, Hybrid and Baxie would you like to do your runs again due to the update ?

Congrats, feel free to post pictures and the like, also remember to enter your gamespy id into your profile and it will be displayed just like the Xbox Live one is displayed fot 360 gamers. :D (User CP > Edit Profile)

Added some stills of a few of the cars.

Hey Spotter those are some nice pics and that Zonda wow that's nice and it looks like you have a pretty nice camera because the quality is sharp. One thing I would suggest though is blur out the plates on the pics you upload as most people don't care about you getting a pic of their car but showing the plate could be troublesome as they don't want anyone being able to locate them in any way, just a suggestion is all. Keep the pics coming though, they are quality.

The cars almost actually flip and rollover with HCm but you get rest when it's about to happen.

To give you all a taste of just how good this car sounds here's a small clip of the F40 being driven through the H3 tunnel, Turn it up loud and if you have headphones also listen to it through them cause the sound is amazing. It's not completely accurate but damn it's good. Enjoy! Please right click and Save as, thanks ! [Ferrari F40 in Tunnel MP3]

Uh Hybrid 700,000 ? I think you added a 0 there buddy. lol
