12 May 2022: Weekly Update

it’s thursday and that means it’s update day here’s where it’s at
for updates from thursday 12th of may to the 19th of may 2022
hi and welcome back my name’s Dan and i’m an old grumpy gamer well it seems like a pretty good week
in gta online if you like free mode events with the timer decreased so now there’s events every
nine minutes and some cracking four times money and rp bonuses to be had before we dive in if
you’re new to the channel we do how-to guides news and giveaways so consider subscribing and ring the
bell to stay up to date so starting with the los santos car meets prize ride for the week we have
the avelia which is quite the sports car according to gta base this one tops out at about 121 miles
per hour or around 195 k’s and retails at 695 grand plus upgrades to win this one you’ll need
to place top three in a street race series for three days in a row which is a bit better than
last week’s but will still require some dedication so grab it if you have the time oh and this week’s
test rides are the fist 811 the declassi mumba and the pegasi tauros the 811 is an absolute
cracker so if you’ve not tried it before i’d encourage you to take it for a spin speaking
of rides if you’re on next gen this week’s hsw ride is the shih tzu hakka chow drag bike and i’m
sorry if i messed up the pronunciation on that one this one is brutal with a top speed of 157 miles
per hour or 250 k’s with all the hsw kit and it’s worth 976 grand plus upgrades over to the
casino next to take a look at this week’s podium vehicle which is the ardent this one’s great if
you’re into sports classics and tops out around 117 miles or roughly 190 k’s and retails at around
plus upgrades while we’re on cars let’s take a look at the time trials the regular time
trial starts at route 68 with a part time of 1 minute and 19 flat so grab a sports car and
earn yourself a quick and reasonably easy 100k the rc time trial starts at a le fuente blanca
with a par time of 127 even so if you’ve got the arena workshop and have invested in the bandito
there’s a quick 100k there too finally if you’re lucky enough to have scored a next-gen console
the how special works time trial this week is east vinewood with a part-time of 121. you’ll need a
hsw vehicle for this one which ain’t cheap but you can do these time trials as many times as you like
you just need to wait for the cooldown which is 1 in game day or 48 real world minutes keeping
the money train rolling double cash and rp is available on all motor wars missions so
there’s some serious cash to be made there in addition we have four times cash and four times rp
on free mode events as well as 40 discount on the rc tank 40 off the scramjet 40
off the slam truck although that one’s a cracking waste of money 30 on the manana custom 30 on the
chimera 30 on a cuban 800 30 off a thruster 30 off the vindicator and 30 discount on the toros for
those of you subscribing to gta plus firstly don’t but if you’re going to the benefits for this month
are half a million your bank account a free grotty brio so with some hsw upgrades and libraries some
upgrades and unlocks for your agency some clothes and accessories a free livery for your cipher
double cash and rp on security contracts and cart races and one and a half times cash in rp on
nightclub warehouse sell missions but again we don’t want to encourage this kind of behavior
with rockstar so avoid it if you can finally this week’s stat challenge is to get 20 head shots on
peds or cops which will increase your character’s shooting ability and thanks for watching check out
