Resetting Times
Awhile back I tried doing the 60fps trick to get my game to run faster, and it ruined most of my times. Can I get all of my NFS Rival track times reset?
I see. I have heard about this command but that was not something we've recommended, I did not know this could corrupt your times.
I don't exactly know how to undo this but I guess a repair install in Origin would work. If not, then you will have to reinstall the game, you'll then get the default settings. Before performing this step, you have to back up your game or use the Origin Cloud so your progress is saved.
To use Repair Install for your game:
Go to My Games in Origin
Right-click the game image
Select "Repair Install"
I will attempt this right now and report back to you prompty. I would like to note though, that I have formatted PC and reinstalled the game fresh since this occured,and my times followed me thoughout that process. In my opinion that's more drastic of an option, but right now as I type this I am doing the repair game. I did not bother saving my progress, as that is of no concern to me. I can rebuild anything lost in terms of progress,that literally isn't an issue with me.
I will edit this post once it finishes repairing.
No luck, times are still wonky looking like 00:/+.0,
Since the times followed me all the way through a formatting of hard drive / reinstall of game fresh , I am under the impression this data is stored somewhere on the backend (EA's end) and not on my end. It might require someone who has access to the servers to delete my times file/record.
So it's really strange because the command would just affect the local files if ever these files are affected, and to my knowledge this can only affects .exe or your shortcut.
Now if redownloading or repairing the game did not fix this issue, maybe adding this command instead would work:
-GameTime.MaxSimFps 30 -GameTime.ForceSimRate 30.0
Also,maybe you can try to launch the game from the game folder instead of the shortcut.
Other than that, I don't think it's possible to erase your current times (you could ask a game advisor though but I am not sure they can do this) but you can try to redo the race/assignement to see if that updates your time with a correct number.
I thank you for your efforts, and I will try your suggestions. I am no so sure it will net the results I am looking for, but I am willing to try anything.
I have another idea, and if I happen to figure out the solution whether it was through game advisor or my other idea, I will still report back to you.

I deleted my .sav file inside Ghost Games, now I am seeing the intro video again for the first time since the very first playing of the game. This should solve the problem I believe. Will report back after checking times.
