I remember Lestropies time was in the low 13 minute range. Second place was Deadph1sh(Then Asleep Manuer) in the 14 minute area. I had over 16 minutes when I got it

You can access the original tournament by going to dashboard > storage > highlight hard drive > select device options > clear system cache. Then just simply load up Trials offline and it will be there. When you get back online, you will be prompted to update it again. It is safe and you will lose nothing from it.

While I do trust you jhitman, I just want to make absolutely sure.

When I select "Clear System Cache" I get a warning dialog that says:

"This will perform maintenance on your Xbox 360 Storage device. Do you want to continue?"

This phrasing is also fairly vague... I understand that you don't lose your in-game progress in Trials HD, but what about custom tracks and the medals/replays I have saved for them? What about other games I have on the same hard drive? Sorry, for being anal about this, I just want to make absolutely sure before I go for it.

All it does it delete updates/patches from your HDD. I clear my cache like twice a week. Have no fear, Mal. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the quick reply AJ! I think I'm gonna start trying to zero it right now.

In somewhat related news as it was my one other tournament-related goal, earlier today I 0-faulted The Midnight Club!

0 faults | 7:14.829 | 43rd place

I also have a run recorded where I made it to just after the pipes in Inferno II with 0-faults incredibly fast - I almost felt like a speed-runner! Of course I overshot the landing after the pipes and fell down into that stupid little hole before the barrels. I have actually back-flipped out of there before without faulting, but on this epic run of course I faulted. My 0-fault run had far more mistakes and recoveries than this one, so I think I'll upload it as well. BTW I didn't even finish it, I just restarted after my frustrating fault... only a couple quick restarts on Diabolic after the epic fail before I had my 0-fault run though!

Ok..... so I disconnected from XBL, cleared the system cache, and started up Trials.

Now it's as if I only have the demo, When I go to tournaments they all just say "Unlock Full Game".

WTF? If I reconnect to XBL I will just be forced to update and get back the easier version of Ultimate Endurance right?

EDIT: Yes, I tried to reconnect to XBL even after starting THD while offline. It forces me to re-download the update - I can't access anything unless I agree.

You originally downloaded trials on another console and then just redownloaded the game instead of transfering data

[rlmergeuser]

I originally downloaded Trials on a console which got the red ring of death a few months ago. I have a new console now, but Trials is still on the same hard drive it was always on. I just unplugged it from my dead console and connected it my new one. This way all I had to do was recover my gamer tag and everything was unlocked - I didn't have to re-download anything.

Does this mean there is no way for me to access the original Ultimate Endurance tournament??

EDIT: Another thought - I didn't buy Trials HD until the first DLC pack was already out. Could this have something to do with it?

[Euan]

No way that I can tell you.
