Fatal At-track-tion

Level: Pro

Prize: 15000 dollars

Time limit: 6 minutes 35 seconds

Sadly, you won't receive any huge profits from winning this race. There are also a few other things you should be told about. First of all, you will have to spend about six minutes on the track. That's a lot of time, especially since you won't be allowed to make any major mistakes. As you've probably noticed, the damage bar has returned and you will have to remember about the possibility of receiving a 3-10 second penalty. You will also be moving quite fast, because there aren't too many corners out there. You mustn't forget about the time-limit, however you should be able to reach the finish line long before it expires. Nevertheless, try to maintain higher speeds (above 250 km/h). As for the race itself, you will come across your first tight turn very soon (#1). You will have to break early. Otherwise you would have probably left the designated area of the track. Thankfully, you won't have any problems spotting other turns. There are also a few fast corners here (#2). You should consider slowing down a little, so you won't hit any of the barriers. Thankfully, you won't have to worry about the traffic, so you may choose the left lane at any time, without slowing down.

Seaside slalom

Level: Amateur

Prize: 17000 dollars

You should be able to collect a gold trophy here without any major problems, however there are some difficult corners on the track. The first section of the race is going to be the most difficult. Once you've reached a small hill (#1), SLOW down, so you won't end up hitting the opposite barrier. You will also have to deal with several tight turns (#2). Thankfully, you will have an opportunity to cut through most of these corners. You could also consider using your handbrake from time to time. The final part of the challenge is very simple. You should also know that you will have to complete two laps in order to succeed.

The Pass of Good Hope

Level: Pro

Prize: 20000 dollars

Time limit: 3 minutes 30 seconds

The good news is that you will be able to cut through most of the corners without having to worry about the damage bar. It's going to be quite difficult, though. Most of the roads are narrow, so you won't be allowed to make any major mistakes. It'll be better to slow down, rather than hit one of the civilian cars. There's a very tight turn near the start (#1). You should come across it in about 40 seconds. After that, you will have to deal with several mild curves, as well as a few easy jumps. Sadly, you will come across new hairpins very soon. One of these corners will require you to turn right (#2). I'd strongly recommend that you use your brakes here. You shouldn't have any other problems reaching the finish line. Just make sure that you avoid all civilian cars and you should be just fine. Also, remember that you won't be given much time to reach the finish line.

Vertigo

Level: Pro

Prize: 20000 dollars

Time limit: 1 minute 35 seconds

Theoretically, you shouldn't have any huge problems finishing up with this task. Sadly, you will have to be very careful throughout the entire race. The first part of the track is by far the most difficult one (#1). There are a lot of jumps here, so you'll have to be careful, mostly because you'll lose the control over your car while you're still in the air. You will also have to watch out for heavy traffic. Remember that it's better to slow down. Don't risk hitting any of the passing cars. You will be able to speed up near the finish line (#2). Maintain higher speeds here, so you'll be able to make up for some of the lost time. You will have to complete three laps of the track. There are three checkpoints on each lap.

 

Not Quite There Yet

Level: Pro

Prize: 20000 dollars

Gather: 162 km/h

This time you will have only 90 seconds to reach ALL four checkpoints. As a result, you won't be allowed to make even minor mistakes. You will also have to choose one of your fastest D-class cars. I would also recommend upgrading it in a tuning shop. Make a right turn after the start (#1) and head on to the first checkpoint area. Once this is done, make a second right turn (#2). You can't slow down here, because there's a checkpoint nearby. Start accelerating. There's a third turn waiting for you here (#3). I would recommend turning right. After that, head back to the radar. The objective here is to score a higher speed record. Go back to your right and start moving towards the last object (#4). You will have to slow down here, however you shouldn't have any problems gathering the required amount of speed points.

Avenging Spirit

Level: Pro

Prize: 20000 dollars

Time limit: 1 minute 25 seconds

You should be able to win this challenge without having to repeat it, however there are some difficult corners and jump scattered throughout the entire area. As a result, you will have to be very careful and precise. I guess I don't have to remind you to choose a faster car for this challenge, especially since there are a lot of long straights here. You will come across your first challenging turn in about 30 seconds (#1). You will have to slow down here, however you might want to consider cutting through this corner. You will also have to watch out for several jumps (#2). They will appear later during the race. Nevertheless, there's plenty of time to score a gold trophy here, so you should be just fine.

 

Fratricide head to head

Level: Pro

Prize: 20000 dollars

The title suggests that this is a one-on-one race and that how it's going to be, so it's a standard duel. Thankfully, you shouldn't be too scared to participate in this challenge, mostly because computer player should pick a slower car. I had to race against a Cadillac, so it wasn't much of a problem. The race itself will require to avoid some of the upcoming traffic. It's not going to be simple, especially since there are a lot of hills in this area (#1). As a result, you will have to slow down in order to organize more precise jumps. Don't worry about your opponent. Focus all of your attention on not making any mistakes. You will have to reach a very tight turn (#2). Make sure that you don't hit any barriers here. Despite what you might think, completing this section of the map should be quite simple. The final part of the race, on the other hand, is going to be more difficult. There are some new hills waiting for you there. You will also have to avoid crashing into civilian cars.
