Street race: live races in race rooms
Create a race room, invite rivals and watch the cars fly across the track live. Tuning and car choice decide the result.
You find Street Race in the Vehicles district. Unlike the classic stake races, you race live here in a room with 2 to 8 players.
Creating a room
- Click Create room and pick a circuit, an entry fee and the maximum number of racers.
- Pick the car from your garage that suits the circuit.
- Rivals join with their own car and pay the same entry fee. Once everyone is ready, the leader starts the race. After a 10-second countdown the cars race live over the track.
Anyone who is offline too long (5 minutes by default) is removed from the lobby automatically and gets their entry fee back; the leader role then passes on. After the race the room stays open, so you can go for a rematch right away.
Real specs
You race with the real performance of your car: horsepower, weight, 0-100, top speed and all fitted tuning parts count. Condition counts too: a worn car is slower, and on the longer tracks every missing percent of condition costs extra time. Times are locked server-side at the start, with at most 2.5% racing luck.
The circuits
| Circuit | Distance | Character | Favoured | Wear |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sprint | 1.2 km | A dead-straight kilometre: acceleration wins | Muscle cars and anything that launches hard | 1-3% |
| City Circuit | 4.6 km | Tight corners: grip and handling | Sports cars and coupés with lots of grip | 2-4% |
| The Long Track | 20.8 km | Mountain roads: top speed and a healthy car | Supercars and hypercars with a high top speed | 4-8% |
| Off-road Rally | 6.4 km | Mud and gravel | SUVs and pickups | 3-6% |
A well-tuned mid-range car beats a stock supercar on the wrong circuit: pick your car for the circuit. The wear is taken off your car's condition after every race.
Prize pool and rewards
The entry fees of all racers form the pot, and it is paid out in full: nothing goes to the house.
- 2 racers: 70% / 30%
- 3 racers: 60% / 25% / 15%
- 4 or more racers: 50% / 30% / 15% / 5%
On top of that the winner gets 40 XP, 5 season points and 1 respect by default; every other racer 10 XP and 2 season points. Everyone receives the result as a message and push notification, and every race is added to your race history.
