175 10 122Actions Report Solution WARNING - USING THIS METHOD MAY DECREASE YOUR ALREADY ACCRUED PROGRESS (according to Reqqu). Due to this possibility, I recommend getting these out of the way before proceeding with any other MP achievements so that they don't tamper with your miles lead tally. The majority of people however, have had the same success I had with this method. I've been boosting other people's designs and tunes by doing a 1/4 mile drag race in private multiplayer lobbies and rubberbanding my controller and after 20 or so heats this achievement, along with all of it's predecessors popped.Set up a private multiplayer lobby with at least 1 drivatar. Make sure the settings are:- Game type: Drag- Environment: Any- Track: 2-car 1/4 mile drag- Max players: doesn't matter- Max drivatars: AT LEAST 1- Drivatar difficulty: whatever you are comfortable with- Force off TCS: up to you- Easiest shifting allowed: automatic (as you can rubberband the trigger and press A when prompted at the end of the heats)- Number of heats: 10 (10 is the max. Around heat 20-25 you should unlock all of these achievements)- Car class: set this option to whatever class you are using - Drive type: again, set this to whatever you are using.Start the race. Most of the time you will show that you are in 1/1* place so you won't get any medals, but for some reason, the mile tracker counts and it progresses fast! I got this after around 25 1/4 mile heats which took me maybe half an hour or a little longer. ENJOY!!Please comment to let me know if this isn't working for you and I will test it out on another account. Also, if you vote negative, please let me know why and I will try my best to accommodate whatever the issue is, thanks!!*EDIT*According to Arch Lord, when he set his races up, it showed him being in 1/2 place and it still worked.**EDIT 12/26/2013** CHERRY CHEERIOS says: "also just throwing it out there that this works the same way in public multiplayer and you can get medals in those rooms. That's how I've been getting my online medals out of the way."***EDIT 01/03/2015*** The issue with decreasing miles on the achievement may be related to having metric units when drag racing. According to HolyHa1fDead, "I was drag racing for medals with another person when I rapidly started getting these achievements for leading. I let the other person lead but they weren't making any noticeable progress. Thats when we worked out that I had changed my units from Metric to English...As soon as the other person changed to 'English' they got the achievement in 20 or so heats."So it looks like a bug is only in the 'Imperial' drag mile to achievement progress conversion code." -- What this means is try changing settings from KM to miles for the drag heatsGuide not helping?

Can I get banned for this and I really don't want toPosted by KingJayTee08 on 15 Jul 21 at 01:20 Can I get banned for this and I really don't want toNoPosted by Guidality on 15 Jul 21 at 01:31 I just came to check what was going on with this as i started doing drag races to check if would be able to boost medals that way and my achievements for leading miles progressed very quickly. Done all them up to 1000 in short time and wanted to check if this was a known thing or notPosted by VOODOO85 on 05 Jan 22 at 21:14 Leave a comment

31 11 17Actions Report Solution You can do this with yourself and 15 AI in a private lobby.Got to multiplayer Y for private match once in match go to options and pick a B class car (I chose B because when I used anything lower I would complete 3 laps and game would kick me out of lobby,and say I lost connection to lobby could be my connection. Try any lower class at your own risk)Now after you select a low class car go to the race options and follow what I posted belowGame Type: CustomEnvironment: AnyTrack: Indianapolis Oval Max Players: 16Number of AI: Max 15Drivatar Difficulty: UnbeatableLaps: Max or whatever you like I did 25-30 it would take me about 18min-22min each race.(50 would be under 1 hour)Damage difficulty: Whatever you likeCollision Mode: Always off (up to you I like it off)Car class: Any Drive type: Any Hit RB and go down to the bottom and changeEnd Of Race Timer: 5secNow hit A for accept, next go back into change Car and select an S class car.I used my upgraded Ferrari F12berlinetta 2012 It eats this track. I will post my tune setting at the bottom :) with this car it took about 54-56 sec per lap. Or use whatever car you would like but I never did it with anything higher than an S,so it may kick you out if you do.Select your new car and you will now see that all the AI cars are stuck at a B class or whatever low level class you chose.This will make leading very easy :) I also unlocked my 1000 mile this way.I would recommend completing the 325 medal achievement 1st to help cut down play time.Here is my cars setup:Ferrari F12berlinetta 2012 Class SDescription: 1000milesI also did design or paint job for it to help keep you guys goingDesign/paint jobDescription: 1000milesPlease feel free to use download them and happy grinding and I hope this guide helps :)Showing most recent comments.
