- Each season, when you advance to a new tier for the first time, you will auto-claim tier rewards at the end of the corresponding raceÂ
Exceptions
- If you get disconnected during a race, the AI will take over and keep the car racing on the track. You can continue the race if you reconnect within 1 minute
- Important: if the Ai finishes the race for you, the race results will be void
- Time limits for each track are determined by the system and not directly tied to the finishing time of the first driver to finish. A countdown will appear when the time limit is almost up. If you faile to finish the race before the time limit, your race will be regarded as Unfinished
