Tips / Warnings

v4.9

• To complete the event without autopass, the player must have the car upgraded at [MAX PRO]. This requires  2,836,000,  3,720,000 and 80 Electric Engines. As the event gives a total of 13 engines, 67 more must be obtained through other means. 

v3.7, v3.9

• As the Rimac Concept S has 4 token-only upgrades (see this table), and the first of the 4 free upgrades is rewarded for passing Test .003., nitro should be upgraded to level 2 at Test .002..
• Before doing Test .008., ensure that Top Speed is upgraded to Level 2, which costs  72,750 in order to use the free upgrade on Top Speed Level 3, a token-only upgrade that costs  920.
• Before doing Test .018., make sure to install Acceleration Level 3, which costs  72,750, in order to use the third free upgrade on Acceleration Level 4, which costs  590.
• Before doing Test .027., make sure to install Handling Level 3, which costs  72,750, in order to use the fourth free upgrade on Handling Level 4, which costs  590.
• Although the car can be obtained using the tuning [0505 5050] (according to Rev Tez), the player should consider upgrading several levels of exhaust, suspension, and acceleration if the player lacks confidence and skill in getting the car with the absolute lowest possible tuning. It is recommended to upgrade the car to [5555 5055] in this case.
  • The [5555 5055] tune requires  2,957,125, proper use of the Free Upgrades, and 27 Electric Engines.
  • An alternative tune is [5535 5252], which requires  470,975 less and 24 Electric Engines.
  • As the R&D gives out a total of 13 Electric Engines, the player must procure 11 to 14 more by other means.
• Players who have unopened boxes from the Championship events for the Buick Riviera and VE Dendrobium should consider opening them to obtain Electric Engines.
• As this R&D is identical to the R&D of the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage, all the tips and warnings for that event also apply here.
