Kudos Challenge mode is the heart of
Project Gotham Racing. It’s where your
racing skills are tested to their limits (and beyond) as you race against the clock
and powerful opponents through four cities, 12 levels, and nine different types of
racing challenges.
For any of the nine types of challenges, you can increase the potential number of
Bonus Kudos you can earn by increasing the difficulty level of the challenge before
you start the race.
As you progress through Kudos Challenge mode, you’ll unlock valuable rewards,
including cars, Jokers, new tracks, and driver models as you strive to earn
Bronze, Silver, or Gold medals in each challenge type.
Kudos Challenge event types include:
Average Speed
Race against the clock for a specified number of laps and earn Bonus Kudos when
you beat the target average speed. For example, you may be challenged to race
three laps while recording an average speed of 85 mph. Rack up more Bonus
Kudos when you increase the challenge and push the digital speed display to
triple digits.
Hot Lap
In Hot Lap—Single, race a set number of laps around a circuit with the goal of
laying down one sizzlingly fast hot lap. In Hot Lap—Average, race a set number of
laps around a circuit with the goal of setting a blazingly fast average lap time.
Turn up the heat and increase the number of Bonus Kudos you can earn by setting
scorchingly hot target lap times on the Hot Lap Setup screen.
Style Challenge
Slide behind the wheel and prepare to showcase your Kudos style. In the Style
Challenge, you’ve got three minutes to complete three laps while gaining as many
Performance Kudos as you can. Catching air, getting up on two wheels, pulling off
powerslides and 360s, navigating cleanly through cone gates—moves like these
are a requirement, not a luxury, when you take on the Style Challenge.
