2.3 Make sure to win by as little as possible.
2.4 Let 1st place get a huge lead as you play with the rest of them. this drags out the race and works for bot management.

3.1 Catch him and have some fun.
3.2 Turn around and go the opposite direction until you hit average speed. Then turn back and run hard until the race ends. This works good for bot management.
3.3 I tried a few times to get the 12 overtakes and failed. So I tried for the distance requirement
3.4 First things first, this is not a time trial! it's just a race, within a set time, with no off-track. That means you can hit walls if you want to. I needed to find another 0.5 seconds and I was getting frustrated. So I decided to brake a good 10 car lengths late at the second corner, slide the back end around and then get back into the gas as I bounced off the wall. This gave me what I was looking for!

Bad day on suzuka.
4.1 Eli hard not to divorce immediately.
4.2 Speed Record. Bots slow down work not for me. 290.1Kph is the goal.
Suzuka West in 71 sec. Is very demanding.
4.3 2x 307 Kph without leaving the track.
4.4 The same as 4.1 but now you have to pursue Zoe 40 sec. That cost time and nerves.
Could day 4 with 1311111 ups. done.
ME7 wrote:
4.1 Upgrade time!
4.2 Have to take it RIGHT to the wall with these upgrades. the trick is controlling the bounce. My first few times doing this I would bounce off the wall and end up exactly backwards on the track. Then I had to waste time to turn around. You need to be on the left and then steer right just as you're heading to the wall. That gave me an extra 2 seconds to finish the race which is huge!
4.3 You really have to plan out your speed runs. I switch my speed to mph for these events, as it's easier to see the second I hit speed. I'm not a fan of weaving back and forth but it seemed to work this time around.
4.4 This one was hard with these upgrades. I forgot until almost the very end that I might have to win the race. I made it all work

5.1 Took some tries to get decent braking points.
5.2 Easy one. Keep it short for bot management.
5.3 Time is not the problem here, speed is! I actually spent a lot of time on this one. I had already tested stage 5. 4 and found it was possible with my current upgrades. Often the 2nd last day is harder than the last day, so I wanted to sweat it out. Anyhow, it's surprising how fast you can take some of the corners if you get them just right. Then I did just a bit of swerving to lengthen the track a bit. I hit the brakes BEFORE I saw 195. if you wait until you see it you're too late. So just after I see 194, I nail the brakes and hope I get it right. Then I just barely managed to stop in time. I switched to mph from my usual kph for more precise reading.
5.4 With the upgrades I'm using you have to plan your cuts carefully and cleanly. Then you have to race fast and clean... except for the bump & pass I used on Zoe!😁! Up to that point I needed to stay clear of damage or else I would hurt my car's performance. However getting into first place as another story.

For 5.3, I used the "pause-resume" technique to brake as soon as the top speed requirement was reached.

6.1 I went back and forth through all stages of day 6, trying to figure out an upgrade pattern that would work. I think what I've got will do but we will see.
6.2 Okay... turning around and going the opposite direction may look crazy but it's for a good reason. Bot management! I had the option of finishing 4th and that's the best thing to do. I wanted to finish as far away from 3rd place as possible.
6.3 Weaving back and forth right at the start helps quite a lot with the lower speed. It made a big difference for me compared to my prior attempts at this stage. Remember to run counterintuitive to regular racing; that means taking the the longest and widest line possible rather than the shortest line through the turns.
6.4 WOW... this was hard!! This track is so technical and you have to race right on the very edge of it to pass. You can't afford any big mistakes.
6.5 At least this last one was easy.
Chronic Avidness wrote:
Driving Settings: Tilt B, sensitivity 4, all assists off.
I spent 1 hour on 6.3 before I finally could nail down the laps and complete the goal. The knowledge I gained in 6.3 proved very helpful in 6.4.
I got a bit lucky with 6.4 on this particular run; bots taking each other out at the start happens only about 5% of the time. On my best runs without the bots colliding, I could get to 7th at the end of lap 1. But this time I was able to reach 6th. This opportunity occurred almost 10 times in the 2 hours I spent on this goal, but I failed to capitalize on the opportunity until the run in the video. It is absolute key to start planning out the next overtake (or even the next few overtakes) the instant you pass the previous car.
Total upgrade cost: 108

Start / End Strategy[]
The player has 6 days to complete the 6 stages, the event is 6 days x 24 hours. The first stage will start the time the player starts it, the last stage will end 6 x 24 hours later. As stage 01 is normally straightforward and can be completed without an upgrade or service, it can be started late in the day, it doesn't matter if stage 01 isn't completed the first day, it can be continued the following day. Stage 02, will automatically unlock at midnight, but can only be raced once stage 01 is complete. Stage 03 will unlock at midnight the following day, and so on up to stage 6. In total there will be 6 x 24 hours = 144 hours to complete all stages.
For example:
Start Monday @ 7:30 PM the event will end 6 days x 24 hours later, Sunday @ 7:30 PM,

You need to choose the best time for you to start Silver Tourer event, or more importantly when is the best time for you to end the event!
RR3 Michael P wrote (pre-race tip):
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 Monday or Tuesday, as long as it's before midnight, meaning stage 6 of the event can be completed over two days, the following Saturday and Sunday. There is a short time to start this event! It may be only open for 1 week, as the next event is expected July 7th. 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.

What is the minimum PR / upgrades required[]
RR3 Michael P wrote (pre-race):
Since Generations, if the players car is far below the recommended PR level the bots run impossible times. Once the car is upgraded the bots return to normal times. Slowing the bots works, only when the PR requirements are close. Some goals have fixed top bots. Possible upgrade strategies:
No. | Description | Upgrade | R$ | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Upgrade the car with R$ and pay (30/40/50 ) to skip impossible goals | 1111111 60.7 |
616,400 | ~0-300+ |
2 | Upgrade the car with R$ then only the upgrades that give top speed and/or acceleration, leaving the grip and breaking upgrades (suspension and tires&wheels). | 3331331 ~PR67.4 |
1,612,300 | 180 |
3 | Upgrade the car with R$ then buy upgrades as the PR increases | All Level 3 PR70.0 |
2,003,300 | 250 |
4 | Fully upgrade the car | Fully Upgraded | 2,938,800 | 660 |
