Race Skips - How does it work

Well, most of your questions are already answered or you can find out yourself, but anyway, from what I've experimented:

1) Seems you can "skip" any repeated race in the Underground, that is any race where you can use easydrive, no matter how difficult it is (at least I got no problem skipping Marcus Kings last race in CH19). No race skipping in special events or tuner trials.

2) You can get 5 skips a day from daily assignment (finish any 10 races) and you can buy 10 skips for 30 gold - making it 15 skips per day without using any money. Or buy a fuel tank for the same 30 gold and getting full gas tank and 3 race skips instead. You get 5 race skips with VIP4, 6 race skips a day with VIP7 and above, and 7 race skips a day with VIP level 10.

3) Skipped race uses fuel and gives you a prize selection dialog, but does not give you any cash for racing the event. Also saves you all the hassle of loading a race. Thus if you have time, it is better to enter a race normally and use autodrive.

If I won't find any other differences, my view is skipping is good for:

- situations where you have very little time and want to use your fuel and get mystery prizes

- for low rewarding events

- for tougher events, which do require more actions during the race (not just easydrive, but also hitting a nitro a few times, for example)
