2001 BMW M3 GTR (Urban Legend) Special event

Made by u/S1dy

## 2001 BMW M3 GTR ALMS (E46)

Introduction:

The "Urban Legend" Event is one of the most difficult ones the game has. Still, it is not only a requirement to unlock the whole Story Events, it's also placed as one of 3 Tutorial Events right at the beginning. A new player gets pointed to this event quite early into their career. The combination of a difficult event and often unexperienced players doing it is what makes the event the most-famous of all.

It is recommended for all new players to avoid doing this event for the time being and first continue with a few Bounty Events to learn what events in general are, what routine they have and demand from a player, and to learn (or at least develop) certain strategies to encounter them. In the meantime, the player should improve their driving skills.

Literature that is recommended to have been read before a player starts this event (please read the comments, too, as they have a ton of additional informations and personal experiences, too):

* [GUIDE] Special Event - Official Special Event guide
* SE Tips
* Guidance for Event Guides
* BMW M3 GTR Guides
* [MAIN] 2001 BMW M3 GTR (Most Wanted Edition) - Official BMW M3 GTR event guide

Check out the many YouTube-Videos for visual help, too.

One additional note: Prepare to have at least around 700 gold. CAUTION! This is only considered as backup! Use it wisely, and only at the end of the event, if it gets evident that the event can't get finished successfully without using gold - and only, if the use of gold will lead into a successful finish. It may be useful to skip Day 6, Race 5 and Day 7, Race 11. Otherwise use it for Ticket Refills if needed.

A BMW M3 GTR upgraded to empty Mechanism (blue) parts has 658 PR and can match the final PR wall of Day 7 with 654 PR.

\*\* Narrow time and a lot of cops and 5 roadMotor Mechanisms. Only drift where you can control your car enough. Avoid overdrifting.

Day 6:

\*\* Don't shoot Nitro in the last third of the track right before 2 ramps that are next to each other. You can't avoid them and if you're too fast, you crash against the roofed bridge right behind the ramps.

\*\*\* Very difficult race! No mistakes allowed! Avoid contact with the Gangsters. Try to accumulate as much Nitro as possible during the race by drifting, drafting and near misses. Be in the inner part of the last left turn, that can decide the race.

\*\*\*\* Rook has a high acceleration, but low topspeed. Drift and Nitro boost instantly to catch up early with Rook.

Day 7:

\*\* You need to drift into the left corner right before the bridge in the second third of the race, otherwise you'll crash into the wall and lose the race.

\*\*\* Sam is really fast and far ahead. Drift and Nitro boost instantly. Drift the whole race, but avoid overdrifting. Find the ideal line of the track and you'll eventually catch up in the last third of the race.

\*\*\*\* A lot of traffic and roadMotor Mechanisms. Only drift at places where you can control your car, otherwise avoid drfting.

\*\*\*\*\* Heavy traffic, a lot of cops and roadMotor Mechanisms. Time is narrow. Avoid drifting so you have full control of your car. Avoid crashing into any obstacle.

In all, the 67 regular races reward you with around 115,000 credits. Every additional re-race (there are up to 70 tickets available for re-races) will support you not only with credits as a race reward, but also with Mystery Prizes that are either credits or items.

To upgrade the BMW M3 GTR completely to empty Mechanism (blue) parts, the material costs are 372,000 credits. Additionally, installation and rebuilding costs are at around 42,000 credits. So in all the event needs investments worth 414,000 credits.
