University Central Activities And Collectibles

University Central is over to the East of Lakeshore and the 29 Activities and Collectibles can be accessed at any time, however, I recommend doing the activities once you’re in end game vehicles so you will have enough power and skill to pull off earning the 3 stars required in each of the activities as well as being able to smash through some of the billboards, the remaining collectibles can be acquired in any vehicle. I have broken the guides down into the own sections to help you find what you need below which are:

Activities:

  1. Drift Event.
  2. Speed Runs.
  3. Speed Traps.
 

Collectibles:

  1. Bears.
  2. Billboards.
  3. Street Art.

Activities

There are 4 types of Activities to 3 star in University Central which are:

There is 1 Drift Event in University Central, refer to Catch My Drift for a full detail on drift advice, cars, specs, tuning and anything else you may need to help you 3 star the event if you’re struggling.

Hit the next 2 rights and 2 lefts as hard as you feel comfortable with angling out of each turn then speed down the straight to the next left hander keeping an eye on the timer. Snake along the road getting as much angle as you can around the quick the chicane and snake to the finish if you need the additional yards.

Speed Run 3:
