Patch notes were just sent out 2 days ago, this probably should've been in there... or some sort of annoucement. Seems like a big enough change that you might want to forwarn people about in my opinion. 

Racing to 250 - Challenged myself - Won Primarily in Class C races and my 2nd goal was under 1K days in game

I finally got there!!!

What a grind it takes, but I feel very accomplished!

I started off in Class A with my NSX…. realized that I don’t win nearly enough. Dropped to B in my Cosworth and noticed even quicker that it isn't for me either. Hit C and never looked back! I was told C races take longer, but I win more, so it seemed like a good trade of and an added challenge

After a few days, I figured out, Uptown is my track for the Z06. I don’t even have to hit the track drop down. Then I had multiple people joining so I had to default it to just 2 racers to make the odds even better. The laps varied between 1 and 5, depending who frequently raced me.

In the first month of racing, frequent names started popping up. At first I would get salty, because they would join every race I posted, I even dropped to D rank for a few and they followed. I’d get discouraged for a bit and toss in an official or put a 10 lapper in and see if they stop joining. After a week or so of this happening, I decided to send out messages to see what’s up. 

Not gonna lie, I think every single person I messaged was friendly. On top of that the majority weren’t just trying to race me, they just raced anything that was 3 or less laps that popped up and they clicked in it. Even better, I started to make friends and had a whole new look on it now. I eventually went from almost never winning against some of these guys to winning more and more, some more than losing. 

Some of my most frequent racers and now friends that I talk to and want to specifically thank for all the races:

zim312 - My first motivator - Even sent me a Champagne when I beat him for the first time

FlyAgaric - Just made it into the top 5!!! And we go back and forth in wins! Would send me med boxes when I crashed while racing him!

Shippoe_Crazzy - I passed him in the ladder to 250, then he passed me, then I passed him, it was a good rivalry for a bit, but he finally got a big lead on me by 40 and then 80 wins. He recently hit top 250 before I did

Kenny_Bits - Climbing up the race win ladder quickly and will soon get top 250. Was so excited for me that he wanted to be my final race and sent a nice gift to congratulate me

The Final Race:

My Z06 ending it’s 5050th race with 3381 wins and a 66.95% Win Rate - Bringing me to Rank 250 on the Race Wins Leaderboard:

Race Stats:

Flying out to Toronto, going to get some plushies
Forgot my poncho, running through snow slushies
The muggers are out, looking for my money
Those sluggers about, it's not even funny

Store, Buy, Plane and fly
Back to Torn, safe in the Sky
No time to stop and look for a hit
Canada's Hospital is straight Bullshit

Back to Toronto for another round
Got smack in the face as soon as I hit the ground
Someone mugged me and took my money
Doctor charges Drugs, calling me sonny

Wow! Great milestone! And seeing some of the posts, you gained a bunch in the last year which is really amazing!

There are some jobs that you can use your job points to get energy from. Like a level 7+ Candle Shop, 1 Job point = 5 Energy

Hope that helps

Super awesome knowing that I was an inspiration to someone! WAY TO GO! It takes a lot of time, but I think it's probably one of the easiest climbs for the leaderboard. As long as you're consistent and find a way to win frequently. I managed to do the majority of mine in a C class.

It was fun racing you in some stock cars, I was winning most for a while, then all of a sudden it evened out. I'm still climbing, going for top 100 eventually

I'm down to race!

I would take a look at the Guides - Specifically this one Crimes 2.0 - Search for Cash - This will answer a lot of questions

It has a break down of items you need to make it better, Loot you get, the times to search that location and more

I personally like the Junkyard, because arson supplies still sell pretty good

Hope this helps!

Click City - Click Points Market - then add the listing

I think the reason it is legal, is because it's not doing it automatically. 

For busting specifically - you can narrow down the list, so it only shows the level range you desire. You can also set it for quick bust, meaning it removes the confirmation and as soon as you click the button it does the action. (Can be a double-edge sword, because you'll instantly fail as well)

Torn Tools is used for many things and it's more of an enchantment/Quality of Life improvements.

There is a guide as well - if you're interesting in doing some: Busting Guide

Travelling

• UAE or SA and buy Xanax. sell it for profit
• Anywhere and buy plushie or flowers

Trading

• RW Weapon/Armor Trading
• Working the item market/Bizaar

Stocks

• Buy Stock blocks
• Buy Low/Sell High

Check out the guide list: Guide List - They have a Newbie Section with lots of great info

Always awesome ascertaining arbitrary artifacts and accommodating acquaintances   

I seen your name pop up buying from my Bazaar a few times now, so I figured I'd check you out. You bazaar has a nice message, cool to see a few $1 items, and most the stock under market prices. You Bazaar is now on my favorite list.

I wish you the best of luck and will likely be shopping with you if I see something I need or like!

How long did it take? Any help hints for others to undergo such an awesome milestone?

I'd like to get it in 1/2 the time, it took you, but I don't see a way to make it happen.... yet

I inquired and burned everything from the launch. Used normal beer and nerve refills everyday.... and smoked a good deal of Canabis (still no OD)

Most of my fails are from not completely burning a place down or accidentally igniting insurance claims with the flamethrower. There were a few experimentations as well.

Torn Report:

Items used:

I know there are guides out there, but I didn't really use them. Only when I failed the highly visible fire twice. 

If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to help out

Your presence will be missed, but we got our memories of your greatness! 

I agree! Would be nice to be able to see the Racing HOF. I also tested with Angry_mum as I was travelling she shot me a direct URL link to the racing HOF and it didn't work.

Flights are boring, I'd love to be able to check the HOF boards across the.... board ;-)

Great suggestion.

I saw the topic near the top of the suggestion and thought, hell yeah, that's a great idea.... sounds like I heard it but not sure.

Clicked in and started reading and I'm like  - Thumbs up this bad ass idea.... wait... why is the thumb green....

Guess I already did it in the past, lol.

Still would love to see this implemented

Nice! I'm still playing just about everyday ass well, but I don't buy that many tickets. Kinda hoping to just get lucky

Lets go! I want a Lion!

I love this suggestion! I think it would be cool to have more random events going on in this game. This could make it much more interesting
