The Pursuit Race Series is one of the newest types of Land Racing in GTA Online that was introduced last summer. Players need to reach Reputation Level 5 in the LS Car Meet to participate in these races. The races in this series follow the same Point to Point pattern. However, there are a few notable changes:

  • Paint the line on the ground as the grid and the starting line
  • A couple of Spectators around the starting area
  • Passing through the first checkpoint raises a wanted level
  • Wanted levels and cops become aggressive when more checkpoints are collected
  • The default wanted level is set at three which can go up to five at the highest

The best thing about these races is the freedom they give players to choose their route to reach the checkpoints throughout the event. Cops can also be seen blocking their way at some point during the races, further raising the thrilling experience of it.

Here’s how players can start these races with just a couple of options:

  • Step 1: Open the Map
  • Step 2: Set up navigation for the LS Car Meet
  • Step 3: Reach the destination
  • Step 4: While inside the place, meet the “Organiser”
  • Step 5: Press the prompt button to interact
  • Step 6: Choose any of the “Pursuit Series” from the list

However, if players don’t want to go to the LS Car Meet to start the races, they need not worry as those can be accessed directly from the Options menu as well. Here’s how to do it easily:

  • Step 1: Open the Options menu
  • Step 2: Go to the “Online” tab
  • Step 3: Select “Play Job”
  • Step 4: Choose “Rockstar Created”
  • Step 5: Go to “Races”
  • Step 6: Select “Pursuit Race” from the list

There are a total of seven different Pursuit Races available in the game and all of them are giving triple rewards throughout the week:

  • Pursuit Race - A Real Education
  • Pursuit Race - Get Trucked
  • Pursuit Race - Good Bet
  • Pursuit Race - Groving
  • Pursuit Race - Industrial Action
  • Pursuit Race - It's Terminal
  • Pursuit Race - Join the Club

If players participate in these races, they can also get 50 LS Car Meet Reputation points once every 24 hours or 75 points for the first time. Every time they finish the races, they get GTA$ and RP depending on the position they manage to hold in the end.


Players should note that only the Tuner vehicle class is eligible to participate in the Pursuit Race Series. Karin Sultan RS Classic and Calico GTF are some of the best tuners available in GTA Online that players can use.
