🏁 Progressional Ladder
Want a focused clean-lap grind with a real progression ladder? That’s what Progressional Ladder is for. Three maps, same idea: • Nordschleife Progressional Ladder • Spa Progressional Ladder • Monza Progressional Ladder No traffic. Full car fleet. Clean laps earn Ladder points. Drive different cars, beat your ghosts, climb the board. Where • Content Manager → search Progressional Ladder (or map name + Progressional) • Look for: Nordschleife / Spa / Monza Progressional Ladder | No Traffic • Separate from the normal public freeroam servers on those maps A short how-it-works blurb is also at the top of the server description in Content Manager. *If the Cars tab or LADDER HUD looks empty/out of date, leave and rejoin once.*
★ Pick Any Car (open fleet)
Every car on the server is available — no unlock gates. • Choose in Content Manager when you join, or switch in the in-game Cars tab • Ghosts and lap boards are per car — GT86 races GT86 times; switch to AE86 for that board • Everyone starts with 500 Ladder points • 1 life on Progressional score-attack runs (one crash ends the PTS run) New here? Easy cars to learn on: AE86, Abarth 500, Alfa GTA, GT86, MX-5 ND. Slower cars also earn a higher class multiplier.
Part 1 — How Ladder Points Work
Ladder points are this mode’s score. They’re not the same as overtake / drift score-attack points on other servers. Watch the in-game LADDER bar above lap timing for live points, cleared cars, and pit warnings. You earn points when you: • Finish a clean lap → base points × class multiplier (slower cars pay more) • Set your first clean lap in a car → +200 first-clear bonus • Beat your personal best → PB bonus (scaled by class) • Hit a hot lap → hot-lap bonus (scaled by class) Collisions (−25): • A hit queues −25 on the LADDER HUD • Return to pits to clear it before it sticks • If you don’t pit, the deduction applies Class multipliers • Starter / slow (≤500 table cost): 1.2× • Mid (≤5,000): 1.0× • Upper mid (≤15,000): 0.85× • Top (F40 / P1 / SV class): 0.6× Commands • /cars — fleet progress (cleared vs still open) • /points — your Ladder score • /help — short ladder help Ghosts & boards • Always for the car you’re in, on this Progressional server • Times stay on Progressional — they don’t mix with the normal public server for that map
Part 2 — How to Climb the Board
There’s no single “correct” car. Strong ladders come from variety: • First-clear as many cars as you can (+200 each) • Keep stacking clean laps (class mult rewards slower cars) • Chase PBs and hot laps on each car’s board A clean AE86 lap pays better than a clean P1 lap. The in-game Cars tab + LADDER HUD show: • Your Ladder points + cleared / total cars • Your next first-clear goal • Each car’s multiplier and whether a slot is free (USE) • Pending −25 / PIT TO CLEAR after a collision Tap USE on a free car to jump into that slot on the same server. WAIT/BUSY means someone else is in that slot — try again when it’s free. In-game /cars always shows live cleared vs open status for you.
Part 3 — Tips
• Stay clean — a hit queues −25; pit to clear it • Protect the next clean run if a lap is already ruined • Variety wins: first-clears + slower-car multipliers climb faster than only driving top cars • Switch cars to climb each model’s ghost board • Score-attack lives: 1 on Progressional (separate from Ladder points) • Want freeroam + traffic instead? Use the normal public Nord / Spa / Monza servers • UI missing or wrong?
