All this week, we've got a daily rotation of Freemode Time Trials all offering Double GTA$ and RP rewards to daring racers able to beat the par time to complete them. To make sure you're equipped for the challenge, Legendary Motorsport and Los Santos Customs are offering huge discounts on blazing fast vehicles and engine mods. All of this (along with a Double RP Racing Playlist and select phones services totally gratis) are live today through to next week, Thursday May 12th; read on for full info.

DOUBLE GTA$ & RP ON DAILY TIME TRIALS IN FREEMODE

Double GTA$ and RP is on offer for completion rewards in GTA Online Freemode Time Trials this week. You have 24 hours to complete each Time Trial (and it could take a few attempts), so get started early by steering into the purple coronas - also designated as a purple stopwatch icon on the Map - and rake in the cash and rep. Don't worry if you've already completed these particular Time Trials when they were previously live in-game; you'll still get the full completion reward (and then some!). Follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook for schedule reminders throughout the week or check out the run down below:

Friday May 6th: Vinewood Bowl

Saturday May 7th: Down Chiliad

Sunday May 8th: Mount Gordo

Monday May 9th: Great Ocean Highway

Tuesday May 10th: Sawmill

Wednesday May 11th: Maze Bank Arena

Thursday May 12th: End to End

ZENTORNO, T20 AND OSIRIS - 50% OFF

There's no mistaking that Time Trials are some of the toughest solo challenges in GTA Online; every millisecond counts when dashing for that par time, so do yourself a favor and take advantage of 50% off some of the fastest, slickest wheels in Southern San Andreas. The T20, the Zentorno and the Pegassi Osiris are all discounted, giving you every opportunity to beat the clock.

 

HAKUCHOU AND AKUMA - 50% OFF

If your preferences lie with the two-wheeled racing variety, or if the terrain between you and the finish line doesn't lend itself well to fully slammed Super cars, then here's your opportunity to add the Hakuchou and Akuma to your vehicle collection at a sweet 50% off.

SELECT VEHICLE MODS - 30%

Prep your wheels of choice to get them road-worthy for the Trials ahead with 30% off Engine mods, Brakes and Suspension - each of which will boost the stats of your ride. For good measure, Los Santos Customs are also discounting Stock and Chrome Rims - no performance boost there, but you'll look damn good.

FREE SERVICES

Lester's nifty services - Cops Turn Blind Eye and Remove Wanted Level - and the handy Mechanic Service for property owners are completely free to use this week. Call them in to help make road navigation that little bit easier, while maneuvering your way to the start or finish of each Time Trial.

 

DOUBLE RP PLAYLIST

There's also Double RP to be gained in this week's Playlist on Land Races, with Bike-focused Touch Base (racing from the Galileo Observatory to Fort Zancudo), Sports-geared On the GOH (taking on the Great Ocean Highway) and Off-roading in Turn the Tide (from the Great Ocean Highway to Paleto Cove). Simply hit the prompt button in the GTAV launch screens to jump straight into the racing action, or if you're in-game already you can find the Playlist in the Rockstar Playlists section of the GTA Online pause menus.

In case you've never done Time Trials in Freemode before, here's a little taster of what they're all about from our friends at GTA Series Videos:

 

Rockstar got us good, I love how the first comment is just OMG on the newswire link. Anyone excited for this? Anyone care?

T20 AND OSIRIS - 50% OFF does help somebody

T20 AND OSIRIS - 50% OFF does help somebody

...but you don't know how?

[emptyplayer]

And double money time trials. That's some easy money for some people.

 

Here's me hoping this signals an upcoming "racey" update (cross fingers)

[jollythecat]

(along with a double RP racing playlist and select phone services totally gratis)

 

Is gratis an English word for free?

It's a Swedish word that obviously mean "for free", I had no idea it's also English, never heard it before.

[M.K.N.]

Won't be doing Time Trials unless R* makes it to Invite Only/Solo instead of just Public.

Yes very english, I use that word myself.

 

Now I will have to get a T20 at 50% off that's not to be sniffed at!

 

Same with Hackachou.

[jyssys]

I'll be honest: I will enjoy a new Time Trial every day.

[emptyplayer]

I suspect it's still a Swedish word that we've incorporated into our language. Just like Smörgåsbord (one of favourite words.)

[jollythecat]

Thanks Tails, now I know a new word that I already knew. lol

T20 AND OSIRIS - 50% OFF does help somebody

Sold my Osiris to buy my Pisces a few weeks ago.

 

Just bought it back for $400k less than I sold it for.

 

Score!

[kringled]

I'll be skipping today and tomorrow because of travel, but most of the rest of this is easy money for time trial veterans. I'm not upset about skipping down chiliad at all though. I do hope I get a solid chance at the tongva valley time trial though, that's the only one I haven't beaten.

Also, 50% off the akuma...which goes for 9k. Pretty sure the only people that benefits are those who don't have the money for the mods it needs to time trial anyways.

[AUScowboy]

Well...I have been meaning to by a top end super for my second character.. She's been making due quite nice lately with the yacht discounts and now this lol, good thing im RICH!

 

YEAH, could indeed be nothing, but i hope this does signal a small update not unlike the RS and 900r. Still holding out hope that the Cheetah will get the beefed up treatment and butt tons of customization..

[Quinn_flower]

Wow real impressive r*

could we please have a real update before yet another Benny related update ?

[Shadowfennekin]

Double Time Trial money..... of course because NOBODY plays those.

[UKPortista]

I might treat myself to a second Zentorno.

[xDatxJunkyx]

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....

 

Sigh....at least the T20and Osiris are cheaper...I've never owned one of those in my life. Being a slave to sports classics.

 

As long as the next legit DLC blows my socks off, I'll endure another week of modes that will be seldom touched.

Thanks Tails, now I know a new word that I already knew. lol

It's a Latin word so you learnt another new one :]

[ash-274]

Free "cops turn blind eye" isn't nothing.

 

Hydra warriors should keep a watch out for Lazers for this week.

Romanes eunt domus!

[bloatedsack]

Pretty positive it's a Latin word from which forms the root of "gratitude."

[Anna Deadly]

Sigh? This event week isn't bad at all, easy $700k and I might finally buy the Osiris. I swear some ppl are just never happy.

Easy 700K...should be 701K..gg cockstar

I know right? This event week is actually pretty useful. The free services from Lester helps for those with low cash. And half off a t20? That's great considering previous discounts of theirs are usually 20 or 30 percent. Edited May 6, 2016 by FFDP999

It's Dutch too.

[DarkSavageDeathlyCloud]

1 month again filled with events...yea...maybe cg got their last updates to

[jyssys]

I agree, this event is not bad at all. On the other, it seems people now have problems getting the mechanic to do this job, he won't answer the phone.

[Azirah]

I'm usually a negative nancy when it comes to these events and half off's but not everyone has millions of dollars / plays that often. The 50% off the select cars are a good price IMO.
