TIME TRIALS WEEK (May 6 - 12): Double GTA$ & RP in Daily Free

[cold_08]

 

 

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:

This is nothing short of insulting to serious, long-term players. Want a reward? No, we don't want to do that; instead, we're going to make it far easier for crappy players to get the same stuff you busted your arse for! That should really help the game!

[Voit Turyv]

What is the font used on the poster?

[M.K.N.]

Double RP for races but no Double Cash as well? Yeah, this is the case of R* trying too hard.

Tbh I agree, I enjoy the weekly time trails but this is a piss take!

Huh? ~$700,000 seems like a pretty good reward to me...

 

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!).

 

So basically: $51000 x 2= $102000 x 7= $714000 for everyone who does all of this week's trials, even the people that did them before. Edited May 6, 2016 by IceColdFrostMT

Another lame ass week.

 

Gg R*

[dewtech]

I'm assuming it also means we won't be getting the weekly trial we are supposed too on Monday? There goes my youtube schedule...

[Karlitoz-E]

This time I need to do all the Time trials..

[kringled]

Yeah, I'm not wild about that part. The one that would have happened is the last one I haven't beaten par on.

Also, the truly taking the piss part of this is putting down chiliad as part of it, and early on too. That'll make sure a lot of people try it and quickly give up on all of them.

The longer they'll do this the more I get the feeling that the game is dying. I hope this suspision is unfounded.

[CrysisAverted]

oh god no not Down Chilliad again! Not so damn soon!

[Viciadogames]

[Gridl0k]

Don't forget you can ace these using the existing TT threads, here's todays:

I'm so pissed that I just had a piss and can't piss now so I'm actually not pissed

back to fallout

[Death Rains From Above]

Welp. Another boring week in Online it is. This is just embarassing now.

[JLG]

1 day to complete Down Chiliad again.

[CrazyFerret]

Double RP for races but no Double Cash as well? Yeah, this is the case of R* trying too hard.

 

 

Looks like someone doesn't know how to READ.

 

Its says it right in the subject title; and its clearly stated in the description.

 

Double GTA$ and RP.

PS4... *unplug*

[Guest]

Whilst there's a whole bunch of money to be made on any time trials that players haven't completed.. I'm beginning to ask myself if even I can continue to support Rockstar with "updates" like these. I really don't know if it's just them running out of ideas, or if this is anything to do with the Housers vs The Benz feud, but this is getting ridiculous.

[CrazyFerret]

Also... I knew I shouldn't have bought that T20 and Zentorno on my second account last week....

 

I just knew there was going to be a sale coming up, just knew it.

[Hector Tavares]

Are you freaking kidding me?

F*ck this game.

[dewtech]

Hackachou for all but Down Chilliad, Sanchez for that.

[AUScowboy]

Ugh..not big on time trials. Can you do them in invite only, or does it have to be public lobby?

[happygrowls]

It's official, they've run out of ideas.

[JLG]

Ugh..not big on time trials. Can you do them in invite only, or does it have to be public lobby?

 

Yeah, but there has to be at least 1 other player in the session.

[Khaisz]

This is sh*t, Why are R* messing with my Time Trials.

 

Well jeez fine then R*.

Guess I won't get to have a life this week since I only have 24 hours to do each one.
