The Hot Lap Challenge is a monthly racing competition where drivers compete to set the fastest lap time around a circuit.

The Monthly Hot Lap Challenge is your chance to chase the perfect lap and see how you stack up against the Shift Arcade community.

Each month, we feature a specific car and track. Your goal is simple: set the fastest lap time. You can participate during regular sessions or select event windows, and every clean lap counts toward the leaderboard.

Post your best time, climb the rankings, and keep pushing as drivers battle for the top spot throughout the month. At the end of the challenge, the top three drivers earn prizes and championship points, bringing you closer to end-of-season glory.

Whether you’re hunting tenths or just want to test yourself against other drivers, the Monthly Hot Lap Challenge turns every session into a competitive opportunity.

One car. One track. One month. Can you set the fastest lap?

With prizes and a place on the leaderboard at stake, how fast are you?
