    Wheelie in GTA VC

    I know this is a bit sad, but I was chuffed yesterday when I did it:



    That's 25 seconds and 816M wheelie if you're wondering what I'm on about.

    Me will try some more, I'll have a go at the stoppies as well which I suppose must be front wheelies.... I just love the bikes in this game.

    That's damned good, compared to my efforts! Most I have managed is 13 seconds... can't remember the distance.

    Longest stoppie is 7 seconds

    My 2 secs on 2 wheels in a cop car was accidental as well, I'm gonna try that as well. I reckon a patriot 4x4 would be the best for 2 wheels.

    Anyone else fine there's a lack of stunt jumps and fun to be had in VC compared to GTA3? I'm sure there was a lot more interesting jumps and things easily available in GTA3.

    Also, I wish there was articulated trucks as well, lot's of fun sliding the trailer unit out. A nice petrol tanker would be handy too. HUUUGE explosion when it explodes...that kind of thing. Those little touches would have just made this game the best, as it is I find it lacking. Still good, but it could have been so much better.

    Anyway, let the stunts commence.

    Get the dirt bike you can wheelie for hours on that, best I ever managed was 42 minutes though.

    Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
    Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean

    for the stoppies use a scooter.. for some reason they are 2WD.. so you basically can lean forward, break, start the stoppie, and then accelerate, and maintain 'stoppie'-ing ... think 40-something second for a stoppie tho i'll have to check... nearly completed the game with a friend... are on 99% completion.. just need one more secret jump thingy *sigh*.

    Updated screenie.

    Trash Man is dead right,..... wheelies on the dirt bike are patheticly easy, get it right and he slides down the seat into "wheelie mode" and you can wheelie for hours like that. (well minutes then)

    On the street bike it's harder i managed 45 seconds.

    Anyone tell me the best place to do the huugest jump from now?

    I go to the airport in the dirt bike and wheelie from one end to another, but the damn thing doesn't register

    It goes right back so that the seat scrapes on the ground a bit, but he doesn't fall off, and th front wheel is off the ground, so it must count as a wheelie

    If you lean too far back (so that sparks come from the rear), the counter is reset, if I'm not wrong

    Biggest jumps, I think are the surfing advert infront of the airport, and the scaffolding on one of the building sites.
