Ascent of the Pacaut
Level: Expert
Prize: 25000 dollars
Time limit: 1 minute 20 seconds
It's very important that you choose a correct car for this task. More experienced players should consider buying one of the TVR's (Sagaris or Tuscan). If it's too difficult to drive them, I'd recommend taking a closer look at Lotus Exige or Aston Martin Vanquish. The choice is yours. Just make sure that you've upgraded your car in a tuning shop. This is a short challenge, however you will have to deal with several difficult corners. There are two hairpins in this area. The first hairpin will require you to turn right (#1). It's very important that you slow down here, so you aren't launched towards the left barrier. I would recommend having a car with an excellent acceleration, so you will be able to regain some of the lost time. Once this is done, you will come across a second hairpin (#2). The final part of the race is quite simple, however you will have to deal with several fast corners, so be careful.
Give me Speed!

I'm sure that you're already familiar with these types of challenges. Just as before, you will have to plan your route carefully in order to be able to visit all checkpoints within the designated time limit. I would recommend choosing one of the easier (to drive) cars, because you will have plenty of time to fulfill all objectives. Having tons of grip is going to be very important here, however you should also choose a car with at least decent acceleration. Reaching the first checkpoint area is going to be very simple. Just make sure that you don't hit any of the civilian cars along the way. You will also have to deal with a very fast corner (#1). Sadly, you aren't allowed to slow down too much, so don't make any mistakes. It's going to be very similar with the second police radar. Now you will have to make a sudden right turn. You will find yourself on a narrow road (#2). The fourth checkpoint is located just around the corner (#3). Don't worry that you will have to slow down here. Once you've gone past this checkpoint, start accelerating. Keep moving towards the final checkpoint (#4). Like always, you will have to watch out for heavy traffic. Scoring a high speed at the last checkpoint should allow you to win this challenge.
Total Freedom
Level: Expert
Prize: 40000 dollars
Gather: 186 km/h
This is a simple challenge, however you will have to make sure that you've chosen a car that's very easy to drive. Manoeuvrability is going to be very important here. I would recommend choosing a TVR Sagaris or Lotus Exige. You will have to go through seven different checkpoints, but you'll have plenty of time to do that, so don't worry about it too much. Furthermore, you should be able to fulfill the limit by going through only six checkpoints. Reaching the first radar is going to be quite simple. You will only have to watch out for a single jump. Now you will have to turn right (#1). This will allow you to reach the second checkpoint. After that, head on to the third one. You will have to go through the crossroads (#2). Be careful. There's a tight left turn nearby (#3). You can't miss it. There's a new checkpoint here, so go there now. Turn left and right. You should be able to reach a small junction (#4). It doesn't really matter which checkpoint would you like to go to in the first place. I would recommend going left, turning around and heading towards the final police radar.
The Mighty Kingpin...
Level: Expert
Prize: 40000 dollars
Time limit: 2 minutes 50 seconds
I would recommend choosing something really fast for this time trial challenge. One of the TVR's seems like a good idea, but there's also a lot of difficult corners in the area, so you'll have to take that under consideration. Thankfully, you won't have to worry about the damage bar. Nevertheless, I wouldn't recommend cutting through the corners, because you might hit something and lose precious seconds. We'll start off with a long straight. After that, you will have to go through several tight corners (#1). Watch out for heavy traffic, although you won't be punished for hitting civilian cars. They will only slow you down. You will come across a group of fast corners (#2). Like I've said before, try staying on the asphalt road. There are some new challenging corners ahead (#3). It would be wise to slow down a little, especially since you should have plenty of time to reach the finish line. You will have to make a sudden left turn at the end (#4). There are also a few other tight corners here, but they're quite simple.
Last Man Standing
Level: Expert
Prize: 60000 dollars
If you have some problems winning this race, it probably means that your current car is too slow for this race. I wouldn't recommend taking an Aston or the Lotus. They would be outrun by other vehicles. The fastest Mercedes seems like a good idea and you can always take a TVR. I'm sure that your familiar with these vehicles by now, so you shouldn't make too many mistakes while driving them at high speeds. You should also upgrade your current vehicle, but I think it's fairly obvious. You will have to complete seven full laps of the track. The race itself isn't too complicated, however you will have to be careful, because some of the corners can prove to be quite challenging. You will have to deal with a very mild curve after the start. Use the brake once you've reached the second corner (#1), so you don't end up outside the track. I wouldn't recommend drifting here, especially if you're driving one of the less stable cars. Now you will have to deal with a long and simple bend (#2). I would recommend moving here as fast as possible. You shouldn't have any problems preventing the car from drifting. Use the brakes before you reach the next section of the map. You CAN'T cut through this corner, because there's a post here. Instead, try drifting a little (#3) or slowing down. The last corner is going to be very simple (#4). You will have to slow down in order to reach the finish line without any other complications.
