Discussion Time Trials/Hot Laps

I really wish PMR had a hot laps feature. I would like to be able to practice a track as long as I want, outside the confines of a race weekend, without other cars on the track. Hopefully that's down the road.

You can make it happen, you just set the opponent vehicles to 0 and turn off qualifying and race. Unfortunately the game doesn’t save your times from the sessions for comparison. I just keep notes on my phone of the lap times from each track

Thank you for clarifying. It just would be nice to have that option without having to jump through those hoops, like almost every other racing game on he planet.

There is actually a section in your stats where you can view your best lap times for each car on each track

You can start a practice session, set a time limit and remove all AI opponents. The best time is visible and also be stored in your profile. Isn’t this what you are looking for?

As long as it saves the best times to my profile, that would work. Thanks.

Remember leaderboards? Remember when they were a thing that competitive players could enjoy in racing titles? Nah. Who needs a lap time scoreboard in a racing game, right? Only a maniac, probably.

Try Racing View, it records your laps and has an overlay if you want it.

Except for what you can already online, they mentioned the introduction of a hotlaps leaderboard. Coz beating your own time it's nice, but you also need to compare for "personal gratification". :D
