To be honest I jacked this idea from another forum:indiff:

Well you know once in a while TG do a race between JC in the latest supercar and RH and JM in a form of public transport (Plane, Boat, Train Etc.)

Well wouldn't it be cool if we could make a story up like this pretend you are JC in a Cheetah against the boys in an AT-400? Well now we can! Just think up of a location in SA to be your Start and another location to be your Goal

It's quite fun actually

I'll post mine later...
 
I guess I dont check out the GTA forums enough, but you lost me with all the abbreviations, to the point that I have no idea of what you're trying to say. Those are just some of the races you do in the game right?

They're also really really hard :lol:

I'll help :

SA : San Andreas
TG : Top Gear
JC : Jeremy Clarkson
RH : Richard Hammond
JM : James May
GTA : Google The Afro

Better ;)

Sorry, JC means Jeremy Clarkson, RH means Richard Hammond, JM means James May and TG means Top Gear

EDIT: Too late
 
It would have to include a healthy stretch on a Bicycle or on foot to make it at all fair.

How about a Cheetah with Nitrous against a Dodo?
 
Race 1:
Vehicle (JC): Infernus
Vehicle (JM & RH): AT-400
Starting Location: The Camel's Toe (Las Venturas)
Destination: Ten Green Bottles Bar (Los Santos)
Writer: JC

7:00:
I get into the Inferuns for the first time, I fire up the Twin Turbo V6 engine, the noise rattles my ear drums, I drive off from our hotel, The Camel's Toe, while the boys catch a bus to the Las Venturas airport from where they will catch a plane to Los Santos Airport, and then catch a taxi to the Destination, the Ten Green Bottles bar, the boys pick up their luggage and go to the bus station

8:00:
I just got a page from the boys that they have just boarded the plane and will leave in about 15 minutes, I was by the boating school now coming up to the Gant bridge, a true masterpiece if I do say so myself

8:20:
I was at the Big Pointy Building, the boys should be in the air by now, but I just got a phone call off the boys, their flight has been delayed for another 30 minutes, giving me plenty of time to get past The Docks at least

9:00:
The boys have left Las Venturas airport and now believe that they can see the Gant Bridge, I'm now in in Angel Pine refilling on fuel, I'm telling you, that Infernus is a thirsty car

9:10:
I'm back on the highway now, but there's been an accident, traffic is held up, The boys are ringing me now, they're saying that they have stopped at San Fierro airport to refuel, at least my Infernus isn't as thirsty as their AT-400

9:30:
They have taken off now, they say they are passing over Mt. Chiliad, I'm passing a trailer park now near Los Santos, there is a Monster Truck parked there, weird people

9:45:
I'm stuck in a heavy traffic jam by the beach, the boys say they are entering Los Santos now, I swear to god I can hear the roar of the jet engines

10:00:
They are coming in to land now, the traffic has cleared and I'm by the police station

10:05:
Oh no! More traffic around the 'Ghettos' as they say, I'm so close I can almost smell victory, the boys are in the taxi and are stuck in traffic too, in the Playa Del Seville area but it's quite light, they'll be there in about 5 minutes

10:10
I'm coming up to it now, no sign of the boys or any taxi, I run inside, to my big, BIG dissapointment, the boys were already there, I'd lost, although the boys they walked down Grove Street

The End...

Well whaddaya know? JC can lose after all!

To come...
Super GT Vs. Brown Streak, Yellow Bell Station to Grove Street
Banshee Vs. Rustler, Desert Airstrip to The Brown Starfish Bar & Grill
Turismo Vs. Marquis, Boating School to base of Mt. Chiliad
 
Did everyone have to take the scenic route? (Seemed like it from journey descripion.)

How about Grove street to boat school, with a trip off the highway and along the B roads on the South West island (forget it's name).

I might try it myself.

Please do
 
You have too much time on your hands, kid.
 
Really? Wow, umm … hmmm, where else is a Bullet. :confused:

I have no idea, tbh. Just have to find one in traffic, I suppose. :boggled:

I've never really cared for %s.

I petty much always find one in LV. But sods law states that when you're actually looking for one, you're bound not to find it.

Go east from the driving school; down the hill, across the tracks, down the hill some more. Take a right (south) at the first intersection. About halfway down the block on the left side (east) there's an area with a Bullet in it. Should be easy to find, and I've never seen that spawn empty unless I just took the car myself.
That's why it's such a crappy prize car, there's another spawn two blocks away. :indiff:

Most other expensive vehicles can be found by wandering around Prickle Pine in something expensive, but I've had the most luck nabbing Turismos by crusing the Venturas strip in a limo. They seem to pop up only in the night and early morning (during the day I just seem to get ZR-350s).
 
Forgot about that one, thanks.

I did a race, but didn't like the story I wrote, and I think I may have messed up the timing.
Windsor: 11:40
Elegy: 10:43
The Windsor is kind of hard to control under braking, and it's top speed is 20km/h lower, but I can't see how it's a minute slower.
