I get hit with lightening bolts to slow me down but I can't hit them back it only happens when I'm in lead very irritating
@koah7341 You were supposed to dodge the incoming ESFs (Electro Static Field) to avoid losing speed.
If you dodge the ESFs successfully, then you would be awarded some In-Game Cash and a bit of Nitrous.

speed points I know what they are but what is the real point of them just for rank? I want to actually win something beneficial to the rest of the game besides cash for losing an unfair race
It's mentioned in the Blackridge Rivals tutorial that there are rewards for participating in Blackridge Rivals.
The rewards could possibly be better with more SP. You never know until you find out at the end of Preseason. 😉
Off-Topic: As you all probably know by now, I'm #1 on the Top 200 leaderboard in Blackridge Rivals.
A couple of days ago, it seemed the players that were above me were all cheaters...
@TheRealJony Now, that is SOME lead you have here, grats. I'd be scared to race more, as you can easily lose a day worth of racing on a single mistake, while gains are very small.
On your way to be the first Icon, right?
BTW, why is that you keep whitening out the Lover part of your nickname, when we all can see it in the game anyway? ;-)

@HeretikJirka Thanks! Appeciate it. 🙂

I had made mistakes a few times and those obviously costed me the race and deducted 55 points off.
Hey, I'm human. I make mistakes every once in a while. 😉
I never thought it was possible, but it is...
Winning against real opponent ghosts doesn't award me points anymore. At the same time, there's no one out there that has a higher SP score than me so I'm bound to earn very little points if I'm lucky.
The only way I could earn SP now is if the game gives me an AI ghost to race with. The AI ghosts have extremely high SP score, so the rewards for winning are high.

I sure am!
Hopefully, the game gives me AI ghost opponents instead of real player ghost opponents since real player ghosts don't give me points anymore...

I normally want my name to just be "Jony", but it was already taken.
I also want to be known as "Jony" as well. That's why I keep removing part of my In-Game name.
The reason why I added "TheGirlLover" to my In-Game name is self-explanatory.
I don't need to explain anything. 😉
Well, I have done it.
I'm #1 on the Top 200 leaderboard in Blackridge Rivals and I'm also the first Icon too!
From the "How to Play" in Blackridge Rivals:
"Rank up! - The best racers will reach the rank of ICON. Can you hang with elite players and become an ICON?"
Well, I'm the best racer and elite player in Blackridge City!!!
To be honest though, I wouldn't rely on SPs to determine who are the best racers and elite players.
As long as you're able to win races in Campaign and win special event races without spending Gold to skip races, then you're all best racers and elite players in my book. 🙂
