Finally got around to doing the tour of island in my enzo in a time of 43'55"24 and i wouldnt want to do that race too often but i have the millionaire's challenge to do yet :eek: .

What map grid is this Race?.....I still can't see it........I've found Millionaires Challenge but not Tour of the Island? :confused:
 
Got it today enjoying it so far....wanted a bike, so found and entered all the car dealers but I cant get into the bike showroom still? Am I missing something?

This sucks, for me the servers have been down since 17:00 and I prefer to play when they're up :(

On a positive note...TDU makes the hawaiian news!


Hehe thats pretty cool and its good that its more or less spot on with the island.
Also i couldnt or it wouldnt let me get on all night on the TDU servers, had my youngest bro around with his missus and decided to play a bit of TDU...think ive finally convinced him to buy a 360 and give up on waiting for the PS3:p. But anyways couldnt get onto the servers, even at 3 am in the morning.

Anyways finally managed to buy the Enzo, what a car...nice speed and handling but i still prefer my 2 lambos over them. Had my brother do all the challenges that i got silver or bronze for me, ended up getting gold cups \o/ :p. Guess my bro comes into some use after all :p...ended up doing quite a few big missions but on one the fool lost me 30k in fines as he kept bumping into the police car.

Still enjoying this game immensely and havent bothered touching Madden 07 and Dead Rising, although im thinking of getting rid of Dead Rising as it really really bores the **** out of me tbh...god knows why the hell i bought it.

Anyways are the servers back up now?? and have they fixed the car club bug yet or not??
 
So what is the best car you guys have driven? My favourite has to be the Lamborghini Murcielago fully tuned.

I bought the McLaren F1 and I am completely dissapointed in it (Plus I cannot see anywhere that tunes one!) :(

Someone help me spend my money please :D
 
For me its definitely the Lambo Gallardo spyder and Murcielago then i would say the Corvette Z06...that thing is a ferrari and lambo killer..awesome power but handling it isnt too great but love getting the back end out.
Then i would have to say its the Ferrari Enzo...tbh im not that impressed with it, i thought it would have been better for the price i paid...$634k:eek: but seriously not that impressed with it.
Also the Audi RS4 is a very very nice car...i do like the handling on it. The TVR Sagaris is a pile of crap tbh, sounds like a go kart and handles like one...definitely not a car ill be buying unless i have money to waste.

Btw you cant tune the lambos, or at least i cant and ive more or less unlocked all the tuning shops and i havent seen one that allows you to tune it further...unless ive missed one??

It's the Forza tuner I think, you can definately tune them.

Hmmmm interesting, ill have to have a look later tonight as i remembergoing to each one and couldnt see lambo on the tuning list.
 
Thought the McLaren sucked tbh. My fav sports car since I began playing would be a stage3 tuned Corvette. Sounds gorgeous and has some serious power behind it. I've shocked enough racers with that car which has clocked up the most milage so far just behind my Lambo Murcielago.

My fav cruiser would have to be the Shelby GT500 or a Pontiac Firebird! Smokey & The Bandit on ITV at 3pm today btw :p

Look around for the Italian tuner shop. You may not have found them all methinks.

I would check again, its the 'US Muscle' tuner, not the 'Todays American Parts' tuner that you need.

If you are tuning the Mustang you will be able to select between Ford and Saleen tuning when you get there.

Yeh i know that corvette is something else, the other night playing on live with my bro in Canada and he pulled up in one...i started to laugh...told him dude you wasted your money on that??. Anyways we had one race and man he was fast compared to my lambo murcielago coupe...easily kept up with me on the straights but when it came to cornering the lambo blew it away.
I was quite impressed with the corvette so off i went to buy one and it is mucho fun but i still prefer my 2 lambos for out and out cruising...nice engine noise and awesome handling. Now i just need to unlock the paint shop so i can take them both in for a unique paint job.
Im sure i went to the italian tuner shop, ill have to have a look later on tonight as i might missed it or something, will try and filter it out as its kinda hard at times to find what your looking for.

For the record the tantalus challenge is a pure ***** to beat, must have tried about 10 odd times but just couldnt get it but last night i gave my other bro a go at it and he caned it with the lambo gallardo spyder. Another gold cup for me:p:D

Still loving this game even though i had thoughts that i might get soon bored of it...really should play the other games and finish them off namely NFS MW which im currently at 4th place. Madden 07 hasnt got a proper look in since i started TDU and same with DR as well.

Bah turns out I missed one, found it now after a good sleep. Enjoying my stage 3 Duke 999 and ZX10R :) plus the stage 3 TVR Sagaris, although it's a tad tail happy. Saving up for a Enzo I think.
