Is the Centenario an Auto Show car? Not sure I’ve acquired that one yet; have to check when I get to the XB1X later.

Do you mean autoshow? Yes, I believe it is, for something like 2.5million CR.

In the Autoshow it’s 2,300,000CR.

Before the screaming starts:

I found that the Lambo Centenario is ideal for this trial, I’ve shared my tune called ‘Lamborghini Cup’ which was already tuned previously for winter racing.

You need as a team to win the first two races as the Marathon is a killer, the drivatars have no concept of driving on icy roads in this one!

Slow down into corners and throttle about 75% to avoid skidding out of corners… the one important thing though, don’t ram your team mates…! The icy conditions and snow makes recovery near impossible and your result in an overall team loss!

Drive accordingly, and keep to your own limits, there are 2 corners in which drivatars do skid out on all 3 races, which makes catching up to them easy, as long as you drive as said according to conditions, remember though they recover a lot quicker than you can!

Top speed is not recommended for this trial, concentration and team play is.

Anyone else having a problem with it not acknowledging that you’re in the Centenario?

Thanks, I eventually got it to work and that was the first thing I tried. When that didn’t work I tried restarting the game, then I restarted the Xbox, and then I did a hard restart. They all failed and then I signed up here to post the question.

Finally out of frustration I did a second hard restart of the Xbox and it acknowledged it.

Thanks, as usual, MM. I very much look forward to your post on this topic each Thursday morning. I very much help prepare for my Thurs and Fri evening (OK, sometimes Sat as well) activities!

The Aventador FE is a wheelspin car that I already have, and have sold a couple dupes at auction. Though I think the perk tree might have a cash perk in it, if I remember right, but aside from that, no real reason to get busted up doing S2 class street races in the snow.

I think I’ll just bag the 50% prize and call it a week.

The Trial is easy in the Centenario, if I could just find team mates who weren’t useless. It’s a shame an achievement is tied to the randomness of team mates.

My tips… if you find that you are useless, leave so you don’t prevent your team from winning. That’s the number one tip.

This ^^^^^^

Got extremely lucky with trial, everyone just left after the first race, after that it was just walk in the park and ended up winning both remaining races.

I’d jump up and down about winning these cars just to flip them for some extra CR but I made it to 999,999,999 on Sunday. So now I guess my goal is to reach my 10th star…

Congrats, DaReoCharmer!

Just did it the hard way by winning the 3rd race… I was a long way ahead of the drivatars.

I don’t think the figure of 195 mph is correct - probably 95 mph (152.9 kmh).

Everything was easy this week… good!

Can someone tell me what is up with team mates just purposely making you crash?

Do people really not know what the word TEAM means?
