Let’s begin as we imply to go on, with the same old “receive a automotive and do stuff in it” a part of the weekly journey.
The topic of the problem this week is none aside from the Nissan Pulsar GTi-R, a automotive that I’ve a tender spot for. Packing the 200bhp turbo engine out of a Nissan 200SX, including AWD and a wise sizzling hatch physique was all the time going to be a enjoyable recipe. In case you don’t have one but, finishing the “Blaze a Path” championship will reward you one, or you will get one on the Autoshow for an inexpensive 20,000 credit.
Chapter 1 – Child Godzilla
Godzilla was the identify given to the R32 Skyline when it dominated racing in Australia, so it appears an excellent identify to undertake for this weapon.
Get in it, and hit the throttle to finish the first step.
Chapter 2 – Mini Skyline
Step two requires us to win a Avenue Race in our new automotive.
Now, I’m going to maintain this inventory for this one, as the following step would require a very completely different tune. Whether it is too onerous, then there isn’t any disgrace in decreasing the issue: we’re right here to have enjoyable, proper?
Chapter 3 – Attesa
For this step, we merely need to win a mud race.
I used to be going to tune up for this one somewhat, including off highway tyres and suspension, however found that even in inventory trim, it’s greater than able to beating different automobiles off highway. Inventory trim is the perfect trim!
And, simply to make issues a contact simpler, this does additionally full the Treasure Hunt problem for this week.
Chapter 4 – Hottest Hatch
200mph in a sizzling hatch? A sizzling hatch from 1990? Insanity.
Fortunately, with a little bit of fettling, this automotive is nice for it. Use share code: 127938081, go to the freeway in the course of the map, and maintain on tight. Don’t fear concerning the noise of the automotive, I’ll have dedicated sacrilege and put a rotary engine within the chassis.
And with this unlikely feat, the weekly problem is full!
Half 2 – Weekly Challenges
New occasions and new races makes up the second a part of this week’s challenges
The Trial – Off The Overwhelmed Monitor

Eventlab – Twisted Knot Presents Rally Path | Customized| Open Day
Oh expensive, it’s again.
Studying the blurb sounds promising, as it’s claimed to be “A rally occasion created from the bottom up| Hand constructed over 26 hours”. I’m wondering if the creator has considered doing one thing else?
Anyway, to finish this we’ve got to make use of a Rally Monster tuned as much as the Prime of A Class 800, and so clearly I went with the previous devoted, Hoonigan Cossie V2, because it doesn’t want any tuning for this occasion.
Whereas I can admire the work that has gone into this observe, it suufers from the identical drawback because the final one – lack of circulate, and silly traps like 90 diploma bends after a ramp that you don’t have any probability of constructing. Didn’t take pleasure in.
Nonetheless, at the least I’m now the proud proprietor of a contemporary black puebla costume, so the day wasn’t an entire washout… (insert eye rolling emoji right here).
Seasonal Playground Video games – Crew Flag Rush
There’s really some extent to enjoying the Playground Video games this week, because the prize automotive is the one which we’d like for the Picture Problem this week.

I had to make use of an off highway automotive ultimately, the BMW X5 M Forza Version, share code: 519084427.
I approached from the north, and the second half of the course is much more open than the primary half, so nail it after the bends.
Screaming via the zone quick sufficient will get you a Tremendous Wheelspin.
Hazard Signal – Stadium Bounce
Flying via the air with the best of ease, it’s these daring souls of their racing machines, because the track lyrics don’t say.
Take your best S2 Class 998 automotive, and leap a distance of over 426m. You’re greatest off utilizing an Agera, as I all the time do, share code: 109282883.
Do you have to handle to leap far sufficient, a Tremendous Wheelspin may make all of your desires come true. Or at the least get you a pleasant pencil skirt…
Drift Zone – Rancheria
Mmmm, Drifting. I do love the noble artwork of Touge, and this time it’s an S2 Class automotive that we’d like. Our goal is a hefty 98,500 drift factors.
Now, my favorite automotive for this occasion is a System Drift Supra Mk IV, so I made a decision to see if I may make it into an S2 Class beast. And the information is dangerous, because it gained’t improve excessive sufficient!
I went as an alternative with the Hoonigan Hoonicorn Mustang, the silver one, in an try and clear the factors and nearly managed it, regardless of it being AWD. Inventory trim as properly. Possibly the AWD helps because the course is off highway, however it’s doable.
Yet one more Tremendous Wheelspin shall be awarded for sliding a couple of bit.
Seasonal Championship – The Gauntlet
Persevering with the theme established firstly of this season, we’ve got the ultimate “enormously lengthy” class race to participate in, this time it’s The Gauntlet.

Seasonal Championship – Blaze a Path
Given the category restriction this week, “blazing” a path could also be past these automobiles. Possibly a lightweight smoulder? Sure, its Traditional Rally automobiles to a most of solely D Class 500, and as everyone knows, there’s just one automotive for the job – a basic Mini Cooper. My tune share code is: 680141490.
Successful this championship, or greatest two out of three in a convoy, will get us the topic of this week’s problem, the Nissan Pulsar GTi-R. Good!
Seasonal Championship – Grime Endurance

Ah, the Eliminator, the weekly probability for me to show how inept I’m at driving throughout a subject with out crashing right into a tree!

Hazard Signal – Forest Escape
Leaping a ridiculous distance and the Sizzling Wheels park appear to go hand in hand, and so it’s right here, with a distance in extra of 365m.
