Race Modes[]

Classic: In Classic mode, the goal is to win the race (come in 1st, 2nd or 3rd depending on the race's goals).

Time Attack: The race has a time limit. To win the race, the player has to cross the finish line before the timer runs out. More time is added to the timer when a checkpoint is reached or by collecting green clock pickups on the track.

Hunted: The race has a time limit. To win the race, the player has to escape in time or will be busted. Police vehicles are more durable than regular cars but can be taken down with a shockwave-knockdown, an aerial takedown, a landing knockdown or a 360. At the end of the race, the player has to successfully perform a stunt to finish the race. Failure to do so has the player's car crashing into a police barricade and losing the race. Any wreck instantly results in disqualification and the game mode is a mixture of "Time Attack" and "Flawless" races.

Slipstream: In Slipstream mode, the car behind can fill up the nitro tank by following the slipstream trail of the car ahead, allowing them to catch up easily.

Nitro Pollution: In Nitro Pollution mode, polluted nitro bottles appear on the track and deduct nitro capacity when collected.

Car Tuning[]

"Tuning" a car is required to get a car to higher stats. In addition to the performance rating, each car has a star rating that increases the maximum performance rating and is unlocked by collecting model-specific blueprints.

All cars in the game can be upgraded with blueprints called "Import parts." Every car has a base price for upgrading with these parts, and regardless of how many were already used, these do not increase in price. The 3 different import parts are as follows:

  • Uncommon Blueprints Uncommon
  • Rare Blueprints Rare
  • Epic Blueprints Epic

Uncommon import parts are parts that are shared with every car in the game. These parts can be used to upgrade any car without a class restriction.

Rare import parts are parts that are class-specific. There are still 4 different parts but now vary between each class. Some parts are only used for Class C, while others are only used for Class B.

Epic import parts are the most expensive parts, most of them being at the Credits 100,000 range, and they are car specific parts. Some cars in the game, especially cars that are high in their class, or are high in class (i.e. Lamborghini Centenario, Ford GT, Pininfarina H2 Speed, W Motors Lykan Hypersport, Porsche 918, etc.) are cars that commonly require these parts to level up. They are mostly found within specific packs, such as event packs, and are needed only when a car has reached a certain star rating.
