We're thrilled to team up with the Upland Racing League to bring you the Snowdrift Showdown. This event consists of a multi-day time trials Qualifying Round, followed by a Final Round where the top 6 racers in each vehicle class tier will go head-to-head to win rewards!
To participate in the Snowdrift Showdown, you must complete the registration form available only on the Upland Racing Discord. You'll need to provide the following information:
Important Note: Each player can only choose to participate in one class to race in and can only win rewards in that class.
There are three distinct vehicle class tiers for players to compete in. Each vehicle class will race on a specific track during the Snowdrift Showdown. Here are the vehicle classes and their designated tracks:
Important Note: For the Base MV Motors Series T Truck class tier, only base models of this vehicle are eligible for use in the Snowdrift Showdown. Vehicle models such as the E Trim, R Trim, and other Trims are not allowed only for this specific class tier.
During the qualifying round, each class will race on a specific track. This round will be all about time trials, so your goal is to set the fastest time on your class track. The top 6 players in each class with the fastest times will earn a ticket to the finals.
Also, during the qualifying round, each race must have a minimum of four vehicles (including the player) for the times to be logged. Players can also race against bots, but if there are fewer than four vehicles in the race, those times will not be logged. Players have the freedom to race as many times as they wish to achieve their quickest time.
The final round will feature the top 6 players from each class who achieved the fastest times. These elite racers will compete in one last race on their respective class track to determine the Snowdrift Showdown champions for their vehicle class. The finals will kick off on Friday, December 1st, at 10 AM PT and will be hosted and live-streamed by the Upland Racing League at the San Francisco Upland Cafe. Finalists will receive further information about their vehicle class finals from the Upland Racing League on their discord before the finals begin.
