DLC #126 - Grid Autosport - Sprint Pack

From Drag racing to Sprint racing. This new focus for the second DLC package within Grid Autosport adds point to point Sprint racing into the game, which requires the player to make it from point A to point B as quickly as possible and win by logging the quickest time. With a handful of new Sprint Championships to tackle, and an additional 4 new environments to race in, the mode is well complimented.

There are also 4 new trophies to unlock, and unlike the Drag Pack, this package does not actually put any focus at all onto completing/winning any of the new Championships that come contained within the newly added content.

Instead, each of the 4 new trophies are earned by beating set times of 4 specifically chosen Sprint routes contained as part of this package (1 trophy dedicated to each of the 4 new environments, which include Cote D'Azur, California, Okutama and Hong Kong). It is, in very simple terms, a package that awards 4 silver trophies for beating 4 individual time trials.

Each of these 4 new environments has 6 route variants, totaling 24 new routes within this DLC, and 1 has been chosen from each set, with a time to beat applied to it in order to unlock the trophy that applies to that particular region.

Sprint racing is designed to be fast paced and risk-inducing, so these Sprint route times within the trophy descriptions have short completions, varying from 2 minutes and 50 seconds, up to 3 minutes and 15 seconds. Ultimately though, they don't really pose much of a challenge if you're anywhere near an average or above skill level.

My method involved just simply moving from the top of the list down. I never spent more than half an hour on any of these trophies individually, and although I had to restart the event a handful of times in the very worst case scenario, this never deterred my progress to any significant level of note. You can even use the benefit of flashbacks up to 5 times during the race if you really need them, which will help achieve some continuity.

This is a straight-forward list, laid out with very obvious goals, which you can easily knock out in casual evening's worth of play. A few hours maximum.
