    I'm loving this game.

    Started doing a few time trials. Managed to get 8th in the world on the London track "her majesty?s pleasure" using the F50 GT. You can watch my lap if you go to the leaderboards At one point I was ahead of the guy in first place but I messed up the last corner >_<

      The F50 GT is a monster... its next on my Ferraris owners shopping list... just that and the Enzo left to pick up I think. That Majestys pleasure is a lovely wee track. Will see if I can hit that leaderboard tonight when I get the F50 GT as I dont think my factory standard F50 will keep pace

          Nice one - I'm in the league top 100 on most tracks in the time trials - but I reckon that's only because not many people are playing in that mode yet

          I think it also splits it on car class - so I've been doing most of my racing in the F355 (class E).

            Can anyone tell me what the different 'leagues' mean when racing in single player? After every race it connects to XBLive to give my world placing, but sometimes I'm in league 1 and other times all the way down to league 8.

            Is this the same as Marty suggests, different league numbers for each car class?

                360's chaps - how do you do em' since they seem to be key for the vast amounts of kudos on the leaderboards?

                  Get the F50GT, slap on the hand brake, lock it round and pull away on a wide corner, lock all the way and pray. I have never managed it.

                      It would be a different league set-up for each event, sothe lower the league you are in, the better you have done in that event when compared to others in the world.

                        You've never managed it?

                        A 360?

                        Every car does it, just put the accelerator on, turn left or right and hold it down until its spinning fully, then you can let go of the cirection button and it'll just keep doing it anyway til you let go of the trigger.

                          I can nail 360s all the time but have only managed to chain them as part of a turn on a few occasions. The A Button (E Brake) is the key, lock it down as you go into a turn and you will start to slide, power on the accelerator immediately after the spin as started and steer hard into and over the corner so you spin instead of straightening up, then once you have the 360 straighten up and fire on with the rest of the event... hard but looks great on replay.

                          360 on their own are easy enough. E brake held while you accelerate so wheel spin, full lock on any direction then tap the e brake to put the car into a full spin as you accelerate away.

                          Both techniques absolutley essential for gold and platinum in the cone challenges!!

                            In the career mode it's all done on Kudos points, so the car class is irrelevant - there are 1000 people in each league, so if you're in league 15, there are atleast 14,000 people ahead of you.

                            The time trials are different, and these are split into car classes. There are still more than one league in that mode though.

                              Damn, that makes me feel quite crap at the game.

                              I managed 70th on league 1 once, mind.

                                Ass part of a chain of course. Otherwise its a redundant move. Need some more practice.
