The Hotring event
This article is about the side-mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. For the vehicle, see Hotring Racer.

Hotring is one of the three events that takes place at Hyman Memorial Stadium in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. In this mission, Tommy drives a Hotring Racer and must complete the race, coming 1st, 2nd or 3rd. There is a pit area for fixing the car in case it gets too damaged, and trying to destroy the other cars, as they just respawn, isn't useful if the player aims to reduce competition. However, destroying a rival car will get the player more time ahead of the others, as long as it doesn't blow up right beside the player's vehicle. The player must come in 1st place if 100% is the player's goal.

Tip

The player can cheat the race by eliminating the competition. Normally, when the player destroys an opponent's vehicle, the opponent will respawn out of a dark area right next to the exit. Park your car in the corner of that area and destroy the opponents. Since your car is blocking the spawn point, the opponents' cars cannot spawn properly. After eliminating everyone, the player can race without competition.
