New Bordeaux Racing is an optional chapter in Mafia III.

History[]

Background[]

Racing Available

New Bordeaux Racing was added to Mafia III on December 20, 2016 as part of the game's free recurring content program. The update includes 12 car races and many new vehicle customization options available through Big Rick's Custom Auto.

Gameplay[]

Races become available once the player has completed all three home districts and had their first sitdown. The races are divided into two classes, sports and exotic, and the player must be driving the appropriate class vehicle to begin each race. While any vehicle of the appropriate class may be used, later events may become too challenging to complete without the added benefit of vehicle modifications, obtained through favors and only applied to those in the Vehicle Delivery service.

Racing Mode

Each race has unlockable rewards for coming in first place as well as beating the track record time, and subsequent runs will yield a cash reward if the first place prize has already been obtained. These prizes consist of various vehicle customizations that can then be purchased through Big Rick's Custom Auto. Coming in first place will also reward the player with the second and third place cash prizes, and the races may be repeated indefinitely. By coming in first place in all race events, the player will gain access to the Griffin Marauder, an exotic class sports car available through the vehicle delivery service.

These are the statistics of raceable vehicles in the delivery menu with all performance upgrades applied.

  • For base statistics, please see Vehicles in Mafia III.
  • Performance upgrades are gained through favors when assigning rackets and territories to your underbosses during the second and fourth district takeovers. Those not received as favors can later be purchased through the Arms Dealer. With the exception of gear ratios, customization applied at Big Rick's Custom Auto are purely cosmetic and offer no changes in performance or handling.

Notes[]

  • Once the following missions become available, all New Bordeaux Racing events will be suspended until their completion:
  • After starting a race your vehicle may be unable to move. This can be corrected by ending the race, exiting and reentering your vehicle, then starting the race again.
  • After update 1.090.0, passing through checkpoints in races may no longer play the sound or display your current time vs track record. Restarting the race may fix this, though not always.
  • During the races, New Bordeaux Radio Stations may play songs not on their standard playlists.
