Gameplay

The game has four different modes: individual race (including split screen), career, time trial and challenge. In a career, a team is selected at the beginning of a season, some teams require that a certain time is undercut in a test race beforehand. Now you have to complete 5 to 9 races with 3 to 5 laps, depending on the vehicle class. Depending on the course of the season, the player can choose a team at the beginning of the next season and optionally move up a class. For reaching the championship in a GTS or PRO season, the player receives an additional vehicle for individual and time races. In the challenge mode you can unlock the other vehicles for individual and time races. The blocked routes can be unlocked in challenge mode and in career.

The racing events in the individual race, career and challenges modes consist of a training session, a qualification and the actual race, with training and qualification being optional. During training, the player can have the race engineer make changes to the car setup. The setup can also be changed independently, no other performance increases can be made. If you don't qualify before the race, you start from last place in the overall classification. In the races and optionally in individual races, all vehicle classes drive at the same time.

Vehicles and routes
