Corner King – This race will test your drifting skills, as cornering the course is the name of the game in order to win.

Delivery (Car/Passenger) – This event will have you either deliver a car to a drop or avoid the police as you attempt to drop off a wanted passenger at a safe house.

Takeover – The Takeover event is actually a demolition challenge that has you smashing everything in your path to rack up the highest score that you can.
