Tips and FAQ History
This is the forth iteration of a tips and FAQ page:
 * RR3 Michael P created tips for The 500's Tips and FAQ for The 500.
 * Guillejarque created a tips page for Project Impulse's challenge
 * The Renault-Nurburgring-Race Teams update and blog for tips
 * RR3 Michael P created tips once more for Le Mans - Pursuit of Victory's Tips and FAQ for Le Mans - Pursuit of Victory
 * Guillejarque created a tips page once more for Le Mans - Pursuit of Victory, with Porsche.

Each time the tips have improved. Unfortunately due to the way forum posts and blogs work, only the originator RR3 Michael P or Guillejarque can edit the first entry. With Tips and FAQ for Born for Victory anyone can edit this page, hopefully this will lead to many more editors adding useful content for everyone’s benefit.

Stragegy
Real Racing 3 is a massive game designed my FireMonkeys (FM) to make you want to spend real money on R$ and. Many in this Wikia community have posted comments what they have managed to reach the end of the game without spending any real money. The bottle neck currency is. Read this article on strategy for more information:

Time Shifted Multiplayer (TSM)
Read the following about how the time shifted multiplayer affects the AI of the bots, why it's important to win by small margins and how to slow bots down:

Methods to slow bots down

 * Strategies to slow bots down... - Forum post with screen grabs and lots of tips.

Start / End Strategy
If you have 7 days to complete the 7 stages, the event is 7 days x 24 hours. The first stage will start the time you start it, the last stage will end 4 x 24 hours later. As stage 01 is straight forward and can be completed without an upgrade or service, it can be started late in the day, it doesn't matter if you don't complete stage 01 the first day, you can continue the following day. The next stage 02, will instantly unlock once stage 01 is complete, without any restrictions, stage 03 will unlock instantly on completing stage 02, and so on upto stage 7, in total you will have 7 x 24 hours = 168 hours to complete all 7 stages.

For example:

Start Sunday @ 7:30 PM the event will end # days x 24 hours later, Sunday @ 7:30 PM,

You need to choose the best time for you to start Born for Victory event, or more importantly when is the best time for you to end the event!

RR3 Michael P wrote (pre-race tip): I wouldn't recommend starting the event on the first day, as many racers, who start as soon as the event opens, complain about bugs, which FM then fix! Instead leave the start a day or two and let other people do the bug testing. Also the tips and details can be filled in by the early adopters, so starting a day or two later gives a better heads up.

Ideally, for racers who are busy Monday to Friday and have the weekend free, the best day and time to start is as late as possible Sunday, as long as it's before midnight, meaning the end of the event is the following Sat/Sun. It maybe only open for two or three weeks, as the next release is expected on 1st December. Keep an eye out for adverts to start the event and watch for a countdown to start. Once started the event can be run, even if it's closed to new racers.

Cloud Save / Restore
See the Firemonkeys website for full details on cloud save:

Firemonkeys.com.au Cloud Save FAQ

Firemonkey wrote: Real Racing 3 automatically uploads your save data to the Cloud Servers once every 12 Hours. This means that if you have lost your save data, you can easily restore your previous game progress (including your purchases) and also transfer this save data between devices using the Cloud Save feature.

During events you can use the Cloud Save and Restore feature to your advantage. Before you start every event, manually do a Cloud Save,  if you lose do a cloud restore,  this will save a long service after the longer, endurance, cup and NASCAR events.

Once you win do another cloud save before you continue the next event, see the FAQ on Firemonkey's website: It is very important to wait for the screen to display last updated seconds (or minutes) ago. If you have a message stating backup failed, wait another minute, a wheel will turn in the bottom right corner, the message will show last updated seconds (or minutes) ago and Backup to Cloud button will be greyed out too.
 * FM FAQ RR3 Cloud Save - How to Backup your save to the Cloud

If backup still failed, return to the login screen, log off, wait 10 seconds and log on once more, click continue, wait 30 seconds for the login to complete, then try to backup once more.

If you still have problems: log off, then turn aeroplane mode on, wait 10 seconds, turn aeroplane mode off, wait 30 seconds for the wifi to reconnect, login, click continue, wait 30 seconds for the login to complete, then try to backup once more.

The final thing to try, force close the RR3 app, then with the Wifi on, relaunch RR3, then try to backup once more. If this still doesn't work, the FM server is probably having problems, again.

You can also use this technique to save on spending with gold, for example if you want to spend 1 gold on the mechanic, if you win, the mechanic will be used and the car condition will be maintained, but if you don't come first the gold is lost and the car condition will be reduced, if you cloud restore the car will be returned to it previous state and the gold spend (or even free mechanic) returned.
 * FM FAQ RR3 Cloud Save - How to Restore your Save from the Cloud

Note: Before you cloud restore, it is important to login into the same Social Profiles you had previously connected to Real Racing, when cloud saving. Especially if multiple Social Profiles are used!

Car Service
How can I service the car when I already finished the day?

If you missed servicing your car after the final event on the day, you can start the next stage and service your car without any restrictions.

If you missed servicing your car after the final event on the day, the soonest you can service the car is at midnight.

The Target is too High, How do I Reduce it?
When the speed or time or distance is too high or fast or long, there are several things that can be done to reduce the target

Make sure you cloud save before you start and after a handful of failed attempts try a cloud restore and retry the next method. Sometimes the AI is still reduced after the restore.


 * Try offline - if you've been online, you must do a force close too.


 * Try online - sometimes the AI target is different.


 * Try repeat, repeat, repeat, again lose by a big margin, don't come higher than 4th.


 * Try loosing by a big margin, but don't retry, instead complete and then re-enter the race - this takes more time but works.

Sorry this takes so much time, but the AI will reduce. With a cloud restore it's quicker than a long service!

For example, I tried 11 times to reach 1st place:

The Game / Le Mans Keeps crashing
RR3 Michael P wrote: If you are having problems loading Le-Mans: Le Mans is the biggest data track to load, close the game, go off line (aeroplane mode), try a complete showdown (hold the power for 10 seconds, I think), then start back up, launch the game and turn the Heads-up Display (HUD) off. This helps on my Hudl.

I read a post suggesting using the RR3 Graphics app (AKA RR3 GFX) available from the Google Play Store, (then automatically updating it from their website). The poster advised Le Mans used to crash, but when the graphics is set low, using this app, it loads and plays fine:
 * App source: RR3 graphics: This app lets you set a desired video graphics quality for RR3 game.

When is the last time I can start this Event?
Born for Victory starts 20-Oct-2015, with a last entry date 10 days later, 29-Oct-2015. As long as the event is started, before it closes, it can be completed.

Will this event be added to the race series?
My best guess is The 500 will be the next one to be added to the series, I don't know for sure, but there is a pattern to challenges being added to the series. Have a look at the the special events at the bottom of Races and Price Special Events and compare how many have been added to the Race Series to see for yourself.

It maybe months before this event is added to a series, again this is a fairly recent pattern from FM of added past events to series, after three to six months.

Will the car be available to win in the future?
The McLaren P1 GTR is available to win if the challenge is completed in 7 days, after ?? the McLaren P1 GTR can be purchased.

Can I buy the car?
The McLaren P1™ GTR has been added to McLaren Generations and its bonus series High-Tech Legends in the Legend racing career. It costs 900

"If you start to play the event, all upgrades, customizations and VIP will remain on the car permanently, whether you acquire it from this event or buy it later."

<font color="#FFFF00">What is the minimum PR / upgrades required
RR3 Michael P wrote (pre-race tip): My recommendation is to start the upgrades as soon as the challenge start as they take 12 hours, there is no need to wait for them to complete before doing continuing the events. As soon as level 1 upgrades are complete start the three level 2 upgrades, they take 1 day. Normally only R$ upgrades are required, as long as you slow the bots, see Time Shifted Multiplayer and Methods to slow bots down)

RR3 Michael P wrote:

Historically most special events can be completed with R$ upgrades, by managing the bots. There are some fixed events, event 6.6 Complete 4 laps in under 7:00, or 1 lap in 1:40 and 7.2 Win with an average speed of 147 mph (237 kph), no time off track or damage! No matter how much bot management, these events are fixed goals. The tracks are unknown, so there is no way to know, yet.

Update: As pointed out by RR3SeanR, the last day is Circuit Des 24 Heures.

Le Mans - Pursuit of Victory had event 1.2, a Circuit Des 24 Heures race with 140 MPH avg, which was doable with the 2015 LMP1 cars, no upgrades, e.g. Porsche 919 Hybrid (2015) PR 90.5, 234 mph / 376 kph, 2.57 s. 80.0 ft. / 24.3 m., 2.06 g. Looking back at the tips, it was doable with all assists on and high!

McLaren P1™ GTR with R$ only upgrades is PR 85.2, 230 mph / 370 kph, 2.32 s., 85.0 ft. / 25.9 m., 1.54 g. and has to do it 247 MPH, 7 MPH more. It will be faster to accelerate, similar top speed, but not able to corner as well, looks doable, car will probably need to be in good condition.

Quiksilvr reply: Cross the finish line at over 162 mph, like how you would do in a speed snap. That will do it.

178.145.10.65 reply: Idem here. I wonder if instead of top speed in the lap, it should be the speed when crossing the finish line. Can someone advise please? Thx

Quiksilvr reply: Yes, that is what I meant. You have to cross start/finish line at a minimum of 162 mph, irrespective of whatever speed you achieve during the lap.

AlainD974 reply: Sorry, I haven't seen your previous reply Quiksilvr, obviously I had connection issues from the moment I started to write my answer, and the moment it has been really posted :-p

Anyway, I can confirm that, I just finished under 1min55 crossing the line with a speed over 261 km/h, and passed :-)

I needed to have my car in *green condition to succeed this task.

RR3 Michael P reply: In Real Racing Guru’s video he crossed the line 1:50.406, going about 256 kph (about 159 MPH), average was green 194 kph (~120 mph). (Watched the wrong video! :

3rd race: train again the Bots in 4.3.2. (still DO NOT WIN or come in 3rd)

4th race: 4.3.1 ... if it is not working ... train the bots more in 4.3.2 and check after that if the topSpeed goes domore down. IF not possible, then you need some upgrades (they are from my side needed anyway to solve 4.4.)

Tips about Detour to Hockenheim (Stage 05):

RR3 Michael P wrote: Continue to follow methods to slow bots down

@Vamsi p. I completed this stage in one service, surprisingly easy. Just retried firstone but bots didnt slow down, so took auto mechanic and did it and my suggestion here would be to be careful in straights, i.e., in start finish straight, after first turn and after second turn in straights they will catch up. after these u can stay assured in corners they will be slow. I put 75 meters distance as target and when there let go of accelerator in those straights. even in 75 meters they will come near to u by end of straight so be careful at braking and if they r dangerously close block them, u can see name and distance at bottom thats where they are. if at right move to right of track, or if left then left. be careful they may ram u out. keep 75y targeet and then brake dont be close to them at beginning of these straights. 5.2 was easy here bots became slow after 10 to 12 retires and retries i got my buddy moises gabby. an d he was 1m 22secs speed. then i went for the kill. but before going there i went to pro am hatch back series and a speed record was there with focus i did 6-7 laps there and remembered the track turns and came back and did it in 1.03 itself. ss, elimination, hunter were just basic finished them. Then in less than 3.02 i finished with 15 secs to spare and slowed down at end. finally at beginning of 5 lap i lapped all 9 opponents and then slowed down after lapping we can slow down and let them pass by. won by less than 100 meters at end, car to service and stage complete.

Hockenheimring Grand Prix Circuit is 5000 yards long, so that should give you a pretty good idea of where you are vs the final car you have to lap.

Tips about The Nurburgring Test (Stage 06):

RR3 Michael P wrote: Continue to follow methods to slow bots down

@Vamsi p. ffinished stage 6, but in 2 services. Was easy but tricky. first 3 lapper straight forward one didnt take mechanic and finished it. second was with fi gtr, after finishing u can give to servicing coz the car will be locked. third was similar with p1 gtr. for 4 mork ring was flying, so retried and slowed him immensely. and won it, but i couldnt fly off as always he was just 50-100 m away from me all the time. fifth has autocross which i completed with 0.15 secs in first attempt unserviced. then head to head i tried and lost. I retried many times but sempers was not slowing, so i went all the way to lose and after going 6-8 times i won slowing sempers from 1.12 to 1.20. If u have unserviced car then go all the way. after servicing s record had 304 as target after all the loses in h2h. did it and won. in6 first lap had 1.41 after little banging other cars so went all the way to finish 4 laps in 20+ secs to spare and slowed down at end. all events done with brakes low, tc on, steering high, tilt b

Retiring after the green lights in 6.5.2 does not reduce the target, you need to complete the race (as far as I can tell) to get a lower target. The minimum I got was 186.85 mph, after that there is nothing to be gained.

 * 6.1 1st 5:07 v 5:08 Existent, I thought I read no off track or damage, but I must have mixed it up with 6.4, so reached 1st in turn 2 and maintained a small lead, no PIT or holding up, braking early so no spins or off track, it was a good practice for 6.4 anyway :) used 13.


 * 6.2
 * 1) 2nd 1:01 v 0:59 Ahmed, I passed Ahmed in turn two and held him up for 20 seconds, I braked too late and spun at the hairpin, I couldn't catch and re-pass him. Used 2.
 * 2) 1st 1:00 v 1:00 Ahmed in the McLaren F1, I held Ahmed up after the hairpin this time. Used 2. As the F1 GTR isn't used any more I serviced it.


 * 6.3 1st 0:54 P1 GTR v 0:54 Ahmed in the McLaren P1, Same method as 6.2 held up Ahmed after the hairpin for 20 seconds. Used 2, 9 remaining.


 * 6.4 1st 5:08 P1 GTR v 5:09 Existent in the P1, same as 6.1, maybe I read 6.1 wrong, it was a good practice anyway :) no off track or damage, so reached 1st in turn 2 and maintained a small lead, no PIT or holding up, braking early so no spins or off track, used 9, 0 remaining.


 * 6.5.1 1st 0:37 v 0:38, I had to brake a little, but it was close with a trashed car.
 * 6.5.3
 * 1) 2nd 1:24 v 1:18 Sempers, I was left in his dust at the start so smashed into him at turn 1, but span out myself too. Retry.
 * 2) 1st 1:23 v 1:25 Sempers, same method but I managed to recover first, I didn't wait around.


 * 6.5.2 5th 180 MPH v 1st 190 Sempers, as I expected I had no chance with a trashed car, serviced, will try in the morning.
