Genesis Week Speedway Time Trials

[UPDATE]

We have successfully resolved the racing issues and are now prepared to move forward with the fourth round of the Genesis Speedway Time Trials. The fourth round will take place on the Detroit Downtown Raceway Track, starting on Thursday, June 22nd, at 12 PM PT and ending on Friday, June 23rd, at 12 PM PT. Get ready to race and compete for the top spot on the track leaderboard, where you can win exciting rewards!

Owing to the issues that we've seen around racing over this week, we will be extending the NYC Racing Track Contest until tomorrow, Friday, June 9th at 12 PM PT. This should allow time for a fix to come into place and give you the time to try to compete. Additionally, we will be postponing the Detroit Speedway Contest until next week to account for this. We will update you with more details once we have the fix firmly in place and are certain we're going ahead with it. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience as we work through this particularly tricky issue.

Below are the leaderboards for the Genesis Week Speedway Time Trials! Remember, each race must have a minimum of four vehicles (including the player). Players can race against bots, but if there are fewer than four vehicles in the race, those times will not be logged.

Genesis Speedway Time Trials Details 

We are excited to host the Genesis Speedway Time Trials, the first-ever racing event of its kind. The Time Trials will start on Monday, June 5th at 12 PM PT and end on Friday, June 9th at 11:59 AM. Each day, participants will race on different tracks to achieve the best time and claim fantastic rewards. The four tracks featured in this event include the Hollywood Hills Raceway Track, Rio Promenade Track, NYC Racing Track, and Detroit Downtown Raceway Track.

In order to participate, you must own an MV Motors car. If you do not own one, you can use the Metaventure Directory to find car showrooms where you can purchase a new sweet ride to participate in the Genesis Speedway Time Trials. 

If you are unfamiliar with Multiplayer Racing in Upland, check out the Introducing Multiplayer Racing Announcement and download the Upland Racing App on iOS or Android to prepare for the Time Trials.

Scoring and Leaderboards

In the Genesis Speedway Time Trials, players will be ranked based on their fastest times throughout each day. Only the quickest time from each player will be recorded on the leaderboard. 

To ensure fairness in the Genesis Speedway Time Trials, we have assigned each car model to a specific vehicle class with similar performance stats. Each vehicle class will have its own leaderboard and rewards. If you own multiple cars that fall into different vehicle classes, you can participate in each vehicle class to compete for rewards. However, it's important to note that if you place in the top 5 on any leaderboard, you will be ineligible for additional rewards for the remaining days of the Time Trials. Players who crack the top 25 but do not win a Kart will still be eligible for the remaining days. If a player places among the top 25 for multiple classes on any given day, they will be awarded for their highest placement, while the rewards for their lower placement will move to the next highest-ranked player.

Important Note: Each race must have a minimum of four vehicles (including the player). Players can race against bots, but if there are fewer than four vehicles in the race, those times will not be logged.

A leaderboard will be displayed here for each vehicle class for the four tracks that will be raced on (a total of 4 leaderboards). 

Check out the details below to see which vehicle class your car(s) fit into.

Class 4: Series S E, Series V Passenger, Series V Cargo, Series V E, Series V Artisan, Series T, Series T E, Series 4, Series 4 E

It is also important to note that participants can only win one Genesis Go Kart throughout all the Genesis Week Events. This means that if a player wins a Genesis Go Kart in the Genesis Speedway Time Trials, they will not be eligible to win another one in a separate event.

Please refer to the chart below to see all the potential rewards you could win. Remember, throughout the Time Trials, all four vehicle classes will race on four tracks, resulting in 16 leaderboard rewards and 400 unique winners. 

This is your opportunity to compete with your MV Motors cars and race for the highly sought-after Genesis Go Kart! See you on the tracks!
