Revision as of 15:13, 25 May 2015

There are Bike Races throughout The Lost and Damned, the first DLC pack for Grand Theft Auto IV, which can also be played in Multiplayer in The Lost and Damned.

Overview

Races occur throughout Liberty City in The Lost and Damned. The starting line is indicated by a red and white motorcycle helmet icon on the map.

Unlike, in the original version of GTA IV, Bike Races in TLAD are:

  • Limited to motorcycles instead of cars.
  • Each race has a highlighted route on the GPS and consists of multiple laps.
  • Traffic is reduced or completely disabled, allowing the player to focus on the course and other races.
  • The player must race alongside either Terry or Clay in a race alongside six other racers driving different motorbikes.
  • There are a total of 12 different races in Liberty City which can be replayed once all races are complete.

Just as in Brucie's Races in GTA IV, the race must be completed by driving through each checkpoint in the race. The number of laps in each race depends on the length of the path given from start to finish in the race, where smaller distances usually lead to more laps in a race. The race can only be won by coming in first place at the end of the final lap.

The longer the player holds the button the more powerful the hit is.
