ELO is a rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in two-player games such as chess and Go. ELO is not an acronym. It is the family name of the system's creator, Arpad Elo (1903–1992), a Hungarian-born American physics professor.
ELO was originally invented as an improved chess rating system although it is used in many games today. It is also used as a rating system for competitive multi-player play in a number of computer games. For more information on ELO go to wikipedia.org

There are six different “online” leaderboards in Burnout Revenge. Race Ranking is the rank that is your overall ranking and is based on ELO. The higher ELO the lower the rank. Rank 1 is best and rank 75000 is the worst. All the other leaderboards has ranks from 1 to 3000. Burnout Revenge 360 leaderboards are available on the Official Burnout Revenge web site.
1. Your time is not in the top 3000 in the world for that track. If your time is not good enough it will show up as a -. Also not that lap times for player matches (unranked matches) does not register on the online leaderboards.
2. If you know for sure that your time is in the top 3000 your time is not showing because of a bug in Burnout Revenge. This problem affects both the online leaderboards and your best time that is shown when a track is loading. For some players the lap times just disappear or never register at all.
Criterion claims that there are no known bugs with this feature. BurnoutAholics.com can however confirm that there is a bug with this feature and that lap times sometimes just disappear and never show again. If you are lucky your time might have registered on the offline leaderboard.
No. Burnout Revenge for the original XBOX and Burnout Revenge for the XBOX are not compatible.
This achievement can seem really hard to get. The clips are reset on midnight GMT of 25th of every month. If you want to get the achievement you should try and do it around this time. Here is what you need to do:
1. First check how many downloads you need to get into the top 20. If it is just after midnight (GMT) on the 25th it should be less than 50.
2. Create a short clip so that it is quick to download. Share it.
3. You need a second gamertag. Create a new silver account or just create a free trial Gold membership.
4. Add yourself as a friend to the second gamertag.
5. Go to 'Friend's Clips' on the secondary gamertag and download your clip.
6. When the clip is finished downloading but before it starts playing press your XBOX Guide button and sign out. You will be thrown back to the Burnout start screen.
7. Sign in again with the secondary profile and repeat from step 5.
8. When you have enough downloads sign in with your primary profile.
9. IMPORTANT! You now need to go to the "Top 20 Clips". If your clip is on there you will get the "Celebrity Status" achievement!
10. Now unshare your clip to make it easier for everyone else to get the achievement as well! Good luck!
There are 8 different locations:

In Burnout Revenge for the XBOX 360 you can set up ranked Road Rage events that counts towards your rank. Some players exploit the fact that Criterion forgot to change it so that both teams have to have the same class of cars in ranked events. Basically the host sets up the game so that his team is racing in far superior cars to the other team.

This achievement description: "King of the Road! Awarded for getting ahead of all 5 rivals in an online lobby!"
To get the achievement you need to be in a full lobby (6 players). I does not matter if the race is ranked or unranked. You must have at least one takedown on all the 5 players in the lobby (green triangle). If you get this during a race you will only get the achievement when you return to the lobby after all the races have completed. If someone quits out on the way back to the lobby you will not get the achievement.
One important thing to note is that you can get this achievement without racing at all. If you are in a lobby with 4 other players that you have takedowns on you will get the achievement if another player joins (the 5th) and you have takedowns against that player.

No. To get this achievement you must perfect all events in the World Tour. This does not include signature takedowns and the challenge sheets.

To get this Crash Mode vehicle, just go to Extra Content in the Main Menu, and select the Madden 06 Trailer. As soon as you start the movie, the Madden Challenge Bus will be unlocked.
There are several ways to do this. Try one of the following.
1.
