imma be honest. when first time seeing matt and his s2000 starts to rubberband and the others do the same. i was like: “what if matt from wii sports went street racin instead of doing sports?”
Ignorance really is bliss. We were adolescents when we first played this game. We didnt know about the crazy rubberbanding so we treated every loss as skill issue lol.
But now, some of us understand what real racing is... how to beat these things... while others have stagnated. I overcame this on stream not long ago, it's really all skill and proper racing etiquette.
I created headcannon for myself that Wu, Brett and Matt used to be or are experienced circuit racers who take their racing and skills to the street at night and they seen how good you are and hit you with this challenge
Rubber band? More like a fucking magnet, no matter how fast you go you always have them firmly welded to your rear bumper, waiting for the tiniest mishap.
when I was a kid, this one had me stuck for days. I did roughest and toughest in the meantime and then got enduro a couple days later. dude...that was 19 years ago
After doing this event several times for footage for this meme video and the guide to beating it, I say Kurt's Killer Ride is harder only because of traffic. Without that, these two events would be on par with each other.
I DON'T F*CKING BELIEVE IT. FIRST TRY??? My heart was literally racing at the final lap. This one took me 40+ attempts last year; about twice as many as Kurt's Killer Ride. Those two plus one of the earlier drag races comprised about 60% of my total number of race attempts.
I *HATE* this race (and 95) with the fiery hatred of a thousand suns. The rubberbanding is insane, and the opponent cars are WAY overpowered for the upgrades available.
Especially if you have the 3 unique performance upgrades that are all power and transmission it makes a slight difference when you choose the handling upgrades versus the power upgrades
Tonight, an S2000 gets exploded by Integra for no reason at 1:08, A UFO is spotted at 2:17, And John goes into VTEC mode at 2:38. Jokes aside, its actually not that hard. I actually beat this event after 3 retries, (without a rearview mirror) in a Nissan 240sx.
Finished UG1 not long ago (for the first time in my fuckin' life, btw. Always been more of a Carbon fan as a kid), and after so many tries I started refering to this race as my "personal 24 Hours of Le Mans". My poor Eclipse... must've blown out at least 4 gear boxes with all the shifting I did. Either the game was punishing me for switching from V-Tec Supremacy to AWD Supremacy or for never playing UG in my life.
NFSU1 definitely has a high difficulty ceiling in the late game compared to other NFS games outside of Prostreet and the unforgiving speed challenges it has. Personally, I never really had issues with this race, but mileage clearly varies.
I hate this challenge with all my soul, I remember I was so angry and so frustrated that after finally completing it after 2 hours I started crying like you have no idea
That mirror is the VIP of this game in terms of allowing you to block the CPU. Anyone playing with it off has to be a super masochist or outright doesn't know about it.
@@Choccykituwualso a little tip when you use your nitrous, that same trick works for NFSU2: tap the nitrous button quickly repeatedly, for some reason it gives you more push/speed that way
@@ashiagefa646You should try nfsu with a racing wheel on pc like the Driving Force GT if you haven't tried it (have tried it with this wheel and know it works). It actually works surprisingly well, with force feedback and manual shifting and improves the gameplay experience substantially in my opinion. Same nfsu2, which even lets you control road feedback settings for wheel in game. Most wanted though feels a little odd with the wheel, at least to me. I find it impressive that nfsu1 and 2 feel quite good on a wheel when the later games made by criterion and ghost feel terrible on a wheel
I remember my first playthrough on the Ps2. This event was the bane of my existence. Took me a while to realise how the AI works and finally start crashing them to win.
I hate this event with such passion... everytime I face it I just wanna give up I find this to be harder than event 95 on my last playthrough, I completed 95 in 2 attempts, almost 1 but traffic fucked me over on the last lap :) Event 103 took me >10 attempts :)
I will not lie when i said that 2 years ago, i beat this event on the first try with the Dodge Neon of all cars. Also, that "You Are My Wonder" song choice was nice! Underrated song.
I beat it first try back in 2014 during my first playthrough too. This event's far easier than Event 95 because there's no traffic. And yes, "You are My Wonder" is a bop.
That's funny, cause for me the last time I played through UG1 on PS2 I beat Kurt's Killer Ride in 5 tries while it took me almost 2 hours to beat Enduro Street Circuit My theory is that while rubberbanding makes them both difficult to a degree, it's the differences of track and conditions that make either or more difficult for each player, maybe I'm good at anticipating where traffic is going to be (some say it's scripted in this game) while endurance racing against the AI isn't my strong suit for example
@@spektacles1927 Market Street Reverse and Terminal Reverse are both easy tracks. Yes, traffic is most definitely scripted from my experience as it's always in the optimal racing lines and sometimes appears in such a way you cannot avoid. If you cannot be consistent in lap times, obviously you're gonna be caught and passed at some point. Finally, both events are endurance races, so previous point applies strongly but without traffic in Event 103, it really comes down to consistency again.
@@spektacles1927 The tunnel is definitely a choke point for many and avoiding those pillars is definitely critical in terms of winning or losing that event.
Funny enough, there's actually something of a... trick, you could say, to beat the infamous megarubberband long races. For the most part they'll only rubberband if you're ahead of them, the trick is to remain always juuust behind first place until the end of the race. Seems silly but it works, though it's worth remembering that the AI has a hard time remaining ahead of you if you're a remotely competent driver, so it's more difficult than it might seem to keep a good pace so the race doesn't take fucking forever.

Me just minding the laws of physics while a blasphemous 350Z flies up and rear ends me sending both of us into a violent spin. I also like how you can spin them out causing them to fall 10 seconds behind you and they still catch up in no time.
It seem that in a game release for the US market the worst AI hacking is in Kurt's Killer Ride race, while in a release for the EU market, the worst is this race, Enduro. Also, many fans believe that devs nammed this race with purpose and that "Enduro" could be a shortener word for "Endurance", a race in which you really have to put all you have to be able to win.
I once used the Skyline in this game. I didn't even complete an event before switching to another car lol. That was also when I first played this game on the Gamecube back in like 2013 or something.
I think that the best car for this game is the RX-7, insane speed, insane handling and if u dominate the manual transmission u can be a menace on the game

Lewis Hamilton: Yeah your vehicle is important, but at the end of the day, it's about the driver and not the car. *_Lewis Hamilton Circa 2014-2021:_* 0:46
@@Choccykituwu IMO the difference is that Verstappen has proven himself even in inferior machinery, while Hamilton had the luck of the gods for the majority of his career. The RB19 and RB20 are dominant, but nowhere NEAR the dominant era of the mercs. If Lewis would want another close season battle with max, not only would he NEED to be in the red bull, but max would need to be in, like, the aston martin. THEN it's close.
@@HammMann No disagreement there, and Alonso with the Aston Martin last year is further proof of Driver VS Machinery. Look at him VS Perez at Brazil last year. On paper he should've never been able to do what he did, but he did it anyways! The car is merely a tool for the driver to utilize. If the driver can't learn to master its strengths, they'll never do well, but it's also foolhardy to say that it doesn't affect the outcome at all. Now is Lewis a bad driver? I say no because if you compared him to any average joe driving around, he'll beat them all the time. Hell, ANY F1 driver will beat an average joe. Is he the best? Far from, and now we see his real potential inside of machinery that no longer has that dominant edge.
was maining a supra on my last run in this game and this race was just so insufferable to beat that made me look for a tier list online and well,no wonder why the supra feels like a useless boat,it's is the worst car in the game by a long margin to the second worst,they really screwed my boy in this game lol,but yeah,with the right car this race feels a bit less chaotic lol
It can probably still be done in the Supra. It just needs way more defensive driving and perfect racing lines. Basically, absolute zero room for error.
It's this or Event 95. I think they're both equally horrid as one has traffic to screw you over in the most critical spots, while the other is just misery for 7 laps on a track that should be simple to win on.
Event 95 can be done without even restarting once and driving a different car, as long as its not a Skyline. Or do the method of putting stock perf parts and the opponents will do the same
I don't care what anyone says, this event is THE hardest race in the game. Why? You can't beat it with just any car. For all of you saying this event is easier than 95, try beating both races with a 350z and come talk to me.
How Event 103 went: I did this one first. I had to restart once because I had a minor amount of difficulty adjusting to the HORRID understeer of the 350z, but I came out on top without any problems the second time around, so call the first time a practice run of sorts :3 since I've never used this car before until now. Had to do some really hard defending in the spots they always attempt to overtake, but nothing unusual for this event really. How Event 95 went: Confident in how to handle the 350z after winning 103, I steamrolled this event; no surprise yeah? The Ai itself ate so much trash on traffic to the point I could check out and be conservative with my race pace. The traffic was the only thing that could've stopped me, and on all accounts was out of my way thankfully for the most part. Don't wanna be a contrarian, but 95 had me on edge more than 103 because of the traffic. The Ai is predictable, the traffic is not, and looooves to be in the blind corners after the chinatown u-turn and the final turn before the start/finish line. Just so happens that's the optimal line for race pace, and even one crash there is an event killer. event 95 is harder than event 103, and I cannot be convinced otherwise simply for that fact alone.
I did it on hard with the 350Z, really hard but definitely not impossible. Enduro took me like 6 attempts, Kurt's killer ride took me 3. Once you learn how to block the opponents properly it gets easier, if you let them pass you it's almost impossible to catch up to them because they rubberband on the curves and don't brake
This is absolutely true. And the worst part about underground 1 was the rubber band always seemed to kick in it's worst during the last 2 laps. I almost want to believe NFS 2015 AI rubber band was a callback to this. (but it wasn't as bad)
Its actually easier when you have a slower ride because all of the AI is downgraded then aswell. You literally used a "cheat code" everybody that doesnt have time to get stuck on this race uses. This is pretty well known once you downgrade the car the ai is easier. If you have a fully tuned car the AI is absolutely horrid in this race.
@@srxt6758 I'm pretty sure that a stock neon cannot beat the other cars in this race (being stock as well) due to the base top speed, accel and handling assigned to these cars. The culmination of that with the rubberbanding (or lack thereof) plus the track layout is the real challenge proposed as i went ahead. If the ai would downgrade itself upon choosing a slower car then the stock neon should win every drag race in the underground mode too, which it doesn't.
My first ever playthrough of this game I also got it first try. To be honest, I don't know why everyone says this one's harder than Event 95. There's no traffic here and that's the one BIG thing that ruins races in this game.
i remember using the Nissan Sentra for this specific event. its a very heavy car and i beat the shit out of that honda s2k. probably yeeted him to the next generation. revenge felt so godamn good after losing in an rx7 that same race
Because I know exactly what song that is via this amazing description. Song before the event started: "crush" - Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion OST Song when the race first starts: Pokemon B/W Elite Four battle theme Song after I say "You think you know how this ends, huh?": Pokemon B/W Dark Cynthia Theme Song after I spun out the 350z on the final lap: You are my Wonder
There's no shame in knowing you're not good at a game. Keep at it! You can beat it! I also have a guide to this event on my channel if you think it'll help, but keep in mind if you're on console, the mirror tip I give won't work unless you use bumper cam because I forgot to say a mod I had enables it for all the car cameras.

Помню пытался ее пройти, но сколько бы я не пытался, сколько бы машин я не перепробовал я так и не прошел гонку. Лишь через несколько лет, начав игру сначала у меня получилось. На компьютере ещё были сохранения от первого прохождения и я решил снова попробовать её пройти, чтобы закончить первое прохождение, но не смог. Так и осталось первое прохождение NFS Underground незаконченным
The pillars in the tunnel were always my worst enemy outside of the al when I was a kid. I would miss most of them then run into one off them😂😂😂
That S2000 still gives me Anxiety man to this day! 😢😢😢 How much I've screamed when I passed the game a few days later. 😅
Easy difficulty means that it'll be easy for Matt to outrun you.
Also I feel like I know the sound from 1:51
From Max Verstappen's team radio a few years ago
Lewis Hamilton: Yeah your vehicle is important, but at the end of the day, it's about the driver and not the car.
*_Lewis Hamilton Circa 2014-2021:_* 0:46
LMFAOOOO YES. God, I'm so glad the Merc domination arc is gone, but now it's red bull... aaaaa when will F1 be fun again!?
@@Choccykituwu IMO the difference is that Verstappen has proven himself even in inferior machinery, while Hamilton had the luck of the gods for the majority of his career. The RB19 and RB20 are dominant, but nowhere NEAR the dominant era of the mercs. If Lewis would want another close season battle with max, not only would he NEED to be in the red bull, but max would need to be in, like, the aston martin. THEN it's close.
@@HammMann No disagreement there, and Alonso with the Aston Martin last year is further proof of Driver VS Machinery. Look at him VS Perez at Brazil last year. On paper he should've never been able to do what he did, but he did it anyways! The car is merely a tool for the driver to utilize. If the driver can't learn to master its strengths, they'll never do well, but it's also foolhardy to say that it doesn't affect the outcome at all.
Now is Lewis a bad driver? I say no because if you compared him to any average joe driving around, he'll beat them all the time. Hell, ANY F1 driver will beat an average joe. Is he the best? Far from, and now we see his real potential inside of machinery that no longer has that dominant edge.
@@Choccykituwu I personally couldn't have said it better myself.
Personally found #95 harder to beat now that I have just beaten the game.
95 is definitely harder because of traffic. 103 is literally your fault if anything goes wrong
@@Choccykituwu The traffic had me rethinking my life decisions deep down knowing I picked hard for the extra money
@@BubbleGumGuy-gx1xj The traffic in this game is extremely evil
@@Choccykituwu Had me screaming
“WHY ARE YOU STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROAD”
Fun game but can be incredibly unfair at times
@@BubbleGumGuy-gx1xj Seen that happen so much in drag races
Wow, your car is so fast!
It's funny you say that because except for the last lap, I was purposefully going slow. But yeah, the Integra is quite fast in this game
was maining a supra on my last run in this game and this race was just so insufferable to beat that made me look for a tier list online and well,no wonder why the supra feels like a useless boat,it's is the worst car in the game by a long margin to the second worst,they really screwed my boy in this game lol,but yeah,with the right car this race feels a bit less chaotic lol
It can probably still be done in the Supra. It just needs way more defensive driving and perfect racing lines. Basically, absolute zero room for error.
the 350Z and Golf are slower, but that's about it
Miata and RX-7 are good choices and avoid the Skyline for this race too it washes out in the corners if you let off the throttle
free run mode saves lives man, to beat this one, you need to know the racing line better than you know your mom
After doing this video and gathering various situation footage for my guide, this event has nothing to surprise me with
Hahaha the corner at 2:00 is ridicolous :D
Extreme 200 MPH grip hax!
Based and Iris Heart-pilled 0:34
This one was *HORROR*
Everytime I lead the first 6 laps then they rubber band the fuck out of me and overtake me last lap
I have a guide to this event if you think it could help you with that.
Easily one of the worst events in the game ever. Saw things through and through on how bullshit the rubberbanding is on this one
It's this or Event 95. I think they're both equally horrid as one has traffic to screw you over in the most critical spots, while the other is just misery for 7 laps on a track that should be simple to win on.
Event 95 can be done without even restarting once and driving a different car, as long as its not a Skyline. Or do the method of putting stock perf parts and the opponents will do the same
@@tuna8181 I know about the stock performance method. It's just stupid you have to go out of your way to beat the event through unintended methods.
I remember when I was much younger and played this race for the first time I almost broke my arm on the table from raging at the rubberbanding AI.
Would turning catch up off help with this game? I noticed once I did that in single player they back off but idk about career mode
Catch Up only affects races outside career mode. it is on in career mode by default and cannot be changed
@@Choccykituwu Yeah that's why these race get ridiculous later on
I don't care what anyone says, this event is THE hardest race in the game. Why? You can't beat it with just any car. For all of you saying this event is easier than 95, try beating both races with a 350z and come talk to me.
Hmm, challenge accepted. Will update in about 30 minutes.
How Event 103 went: I did this one first. I had to restart once because I had a minor amount of difficulty adjusting to the HORRID understeer of the 350z, but I came out on top without any problems the second time around, so call the first time a practice run of sorts :3 since I've never used this car before until now. Had to do some really hard defending in the spots they always attempt to overtake, but nothing unusual for this event really.
How Event 95 went: Confident in how to handle the 350z after winning 103, I steamrolled this event; no surprise yeah? The Ai itself ate so much trash on traffic to the point I could check out and be conservative with my race pace. The traffic was the only thing that could've stopped me, and on all accounts was out of my way thankfully for the most part.
Don't wanna be a contrarian, but 95 had me on edge more than 103 because of the traffic. The Ai is predictable, the traffic is not, and looooves to be in the blind corners after the chinatown u-turn and the final turn before the start/finish line. Just so happens that's the optimal line for race pace, and even one crash there is an event killer. event 95 is harder than event 103, and I cannot be convinced otherwise simply for that fact alone.
I did it on hard with the 350Z, really hard but definitely not impossible. Enduro took me like 6 attempts, Kurt's killer ride took me 3. Once you learn how to block the opponents properly it gets easier, if you let them pass you it's almost impossible to catch up to them because they rubberband on the curves and don't brake
This is absolutely true. And the worst part about underground 1 was the rubber band always seemed to kick in it's worst during the last 2 laps. I almost want to believe NFS 2015 AI rubber band was a callback to this. (but it wasn't as bad)
Just beaten it first try right now. Stock dodge neon. 8:09.06. Songs played: Snapshot, Who's Who, Swallow.
Its actually easier when you have a slower ride because all of the AI is downgraded then aswell. You literally used a "cheat code" everybody that doesnt have time to get stuck on this race uses. This is pretty well known once you downgrade the car the ai is easier. If you have a fully tuned car the AI is absolutely horrid in this race.
@@srxt6758 I'm pretty sure that a stock neon cannot beat the other cars in this race (being stock as well) due to the base top speed, accel and handling assigned to these cars. The culmination of that with the rubberbanding (or lack thereof) plus the track layout is the real challenge proposed as i went ahead. If the ai would downgrade itself upon choosing a slower car then the stock neon should win every drag race in the underground mode too, which it doesn't.
i somehow clutched this event on my frist or second try LOL
My first ever playthrough of this game I also got it first try. To be honest, I don't know why everyone says this one's harder than Event 95. There's no traffic here and that's the one BIG thing that ruins races in this game.
i remember using the Nissan Sentra for this specific event. its a very heavy car and i beat the shit out of that honda s2k. probably yeeted him to the next generation. revenge felt so godamn good after losing in an rx7 that same race
does hard make any difference to driving or does it just make the rubberbanding obscene?
The rubberbanding is relentless regardless of difficulty. It changes nothing.
I was like 7-8 years old when i played underground 💀
I can’t even stress how long I was stuck on this event. The ai rubber banding was so bad 💀
So where is meme song - drdrdrdrdrdrdrdrd dd drdrdrdrdrdrdrd
Because I know exactly what song that is via this amazing description.
Song before the event started: "crush" - Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion OST
Song when the race first starts: Pokemon B/W Elite Four battle theme
Song after I say "You think you know how this ends, huh?": Pokemon B/W Dark Cynthia Theme
Song after I spun out the 350z on the final lap: You are my Wonder
1:45 "Oh no! Anyway"
Damn I remember this now! it tool like at least 25 tries to beat.
This is how I feel even on easy lol I am a noob aaand my controller is very old (ps2)
There's no shame in knowing you're not good at a game. Keep at it! You can beat it! I also have a guide to this event on my channel if you think it'll help, but keep in mind if you're on console, the mirror tip I give won't work unless you use bumper cam because I forgot to say a mod I had enables it for all the car cameras.
2:35 name of song ?
Queen 26 - You Are My Wonder (Extended Version)
And circuit is harder than Sprint Aswell. Because it’s longier and one Crash for you it’s over, one Crash for AI rubberband rules.
Hard diffeculty
95*
So true.
I played this game for the first time recently and that S2K gave me aids i swear the rubberband was atrocious
This game rubberbanding is a joke
So funny man =))
