I unlocked the power station section of the DC compound yesterday & im 1 mission away from completing all 80. It's the Buried Large Pipes mission that won't work, ive done loads of great drifts through from all angles etc but it just wont read that ive done it.

Is there any tips people have or should i just keep on doin it until it works??

EDIT: i finally did it ^_^ & its all to do with the cars angle whn you do it. I think its about a 45° angle

Have a look on Youtube for someone getting the mission, then copy it as best you can. I'm sure you've already done it, but make sure with drift challenges you're sideways before you reach the obstacle.

Some of the missions are a little awkward to understand or get the completion to pop up, but if someone else already did it on video you know the same method can work for you.

Tried & done everything you just said lol. It's really annoying because ive tried everything i can think of, it just wont work:grumpy:
 
Some of these can be a little hard to trigger. There's basically a point somewhere in the pipes that you have to be drifting over in order to get the game to recognise it. Based on one of the challenges in Dirt Tour mode, this point is in the gap between the two pipes (though I would not be surprised if there are two points in there, and you need to be drifing over both of them).

I've found that the easiest way to do it is to start next to the jump facing the elevated train line. Drive in an arc and pull on the handbrake just before you enter the first pipe. Make sure you give it a little bit of opposite lock. Use the thorttle to keep the car in line; your momentum should carry you through, not the power.

If you don't have it, look into getting the Mini Gymkhana DLC. It's very easy to get the car into a drift, and it's very tiny; one of the big problems with getting the angle the right into the pipes is that if you're just off the optimal line by even a fraction, you'll smash into the pipe.
