How to unlock the A Quarter-Furlong at a Time achievement

    EDIT: This achievement may be buggy for some, haven't seen a solution to that yet, but will update if one is found.

    Street Races become available after Evie meets Robert Topping in Sequence 4.

    There are three types of races, but only two count towards the achievement. You can do "Lap Races" or "A-to-B Races", but not "Exotic Races" as these have no opponents.

    Once you're adept with the carriage controls and physics, winning these races isn't too difficult, and your chances are enhanced by gaining the Driver I and Driver II perks. Driver II is especially useful as it increases your acceleration. Additionally, these races use 'rubber banding' to keep you and your opponents close, so mashing cn_A to boost your speed throughout the race is not the best tactic to winning as your opponents will keep pace, instead using cn_A in bursts for overtakes or to gain a gap at the end of the race will improve your chances of success.

    Win three of these races and the achievement will unlock.

    NooseknitterThanks for the info on rubberbanding! Ubisoft is a freaking joke. Was mashing a the entire race and making perfect drift turns with a mile lead and then suddenly one of the enemy carts would turn into a 1000 horse power Burgatti Veyron being driven by a super human. Once I started driving slow it became so easy.

    Death395Achievement is completely broken for me. First race I did didn't count, then the next two counted; now it's stuck at 66%. I've come in first in almost a dozen different races. Garbage.

    FL1BUnbelievable what's happening, same thing for me, it crashed at 66% even getting first in all races, and it's the third game with a broken achievement that I've caught. Seriously thinking about switching platforms.
