  "textContent": "The Sunday racing team runs the Unheard Shores Circuit, a coastal course on the easiest difficulty tier in Neverness to Everness. Clearing every stage with full objectives is what unlocks Legendary Driver progress, and the run is designed so a basic dealership car with a touched-up engine can sweep first place across all six laps.\n\n🏁\n\nQuick answer: Buy any car capable of 130–135 km/h, set the weather to clear from the Time System menu, then talk to Ikeyama at the Sunday garage between 8:00 PM and 8:00 AM in-game time. Win each Circuit A and Circuit B variant in 1st place while keeping a 50m and 100m lead, and finish the final Reverse run under 200 seconds.\n\nImage credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Requirements before the race\n\nSunday is a Hethereau Hobby event, so the racing system has to be unlocked first. You also need a road-legal car, not a scooter or motorcycle, and the time window has to match Sunday's operating hours.\n\nRequirement| Detail\n---|---\nCity Tycoon Level| Level 2 (unlocks Racing as a Hethereau Hobby)\nVehicle type| Car only — bikes and scooters are blocked from entry\nRecommended top speed| 130–135 km/h or higher\nOperating hours| 8:00 PM – 8:00 AM (in-game time)\nWeather| Set to clear before talking to the NPC\nVehicle durability| Repair before starting; low durability caps top speed\nCity Stamina| Consumed per challenge run for rewards\n\nIf you do not own a car yet, the New Way dealership sells entry-level options. The M1000 is a common starter pick because it clears the 130 km/h target without engine upgrades, though any car in that range works for Sunday's slow opponents.\n\nThe New Way dealership sells entry-level options | Image credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@ZaFrostPet)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Setting up the race\n\n**Step 1:** Open the map and look for the pink flag icon marking the Sunday challenge organizer. Tracking the flag automatically rolls the in-game clock forward into the 8 PM–8 AM window, so you do not have to adjust the time manually for availability.\n\n**Step 2:** Before talking to the NPC, open the Menu and use the Time System to switch the weather to clear or sunny. Standard tires lose grip in rain, and the coastal route already has tight corners where wet roads cause spinouts.\n\n**Step 3:** Drive to the Sunday garage and speak with Ikeyama. Choose \"I'd like to join\" when he offers the racing event. The vehicle selection menu opens with the Unheard Shores - Sunday header.\n\n**Step 4:** Pick your car and run emergency maintenance from the selection screen if durability is below full. Confirm and start the race.\n\nDrive to the Sunday garage and speak with Ikeyama | Image credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### The six Sunday stages\n\nThe Sunday challenge runs as a stage chain along the Unheard Shores coast. Each stage adds one more racer to the field, with the final two runs taking place in rain even when you set the weather to clear at the start.\n\nStage| Course| Field| Conditions\n---|---|---|---\n1| Unheard Shores Circuit A| 1v1| Clear\n2| Circuit A Reverse| 3 racers| Clear\n3| Unheard Shores Circuit B| 4 racers| Clear\n4| Circuit B Reverse| 4 racers| Rain\n5| Circuit A Normal| 4 racers| Clear\n6| Circuit B Reverse (final)| 4 racers| Rain\n\nEach stage has up to three objectives stacked on the result screen: win the race, finish 50+ meters ahead of 2nd place, and either finish 100+ meters ahead or complete the final stage in under 200 seconds. Hitting all three on every stage is what feeds the Legendary Driver progression.\n\nThe Sunday challenge runs as a stage chain along the Unheard Shores coast | Image credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### How to drive the Unheard Shores coast\n\nThe Sunday circuits are winding coastal roads with several sharp turns, but the AI opponents drive slowly. The win condition is consistency on corners rather than raw speed, which is why a 130 km/h cruise works.\n\n**Brake before the corner, do not drift.** Drifting bleeds momentum and costs lap time on Sunday's medium-radius turns. Decelerate before the apex, then accelerate cleanly out of it.\n\n**Hug the inside line.** Clip the inside edge of each curve. The outside line adds distance on every turn, and on a 1-minute lap, that lost distance is what kills the 100-meter gap objective.\n\n**Use checkpoints as braking markers.** The green checkpoint gates show up consistently on the same corners. Once you have run Circuit A once, use the gate positions to decide where to lift off the throttle on the reverse and B variants.\n\n**Reset instead of recovering.** If you wall-tap or spin, hit Position Reset (R on keyboard, D-pad Up on controller) to snap back onto the track. Trying to manually three-point turn loses more time than the reset penalty.\n\nThe win condition is consistency on corners | Image credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Handling the two rain stages\n\nStages 4 and 6 run in the rain regardless of the pre-race weather setting. The track surface reduces grip, and the final stage adds a sub-200-second objective on top of the standard win and lead requirements.\n\nIf you have not bought rain tires from Rampage Players, slow your entry speed into every corner by an extra beat. Standard tires will slide if you brake mid-turn, so brake earlier in a straight line, then steer in. The Sunday opponents also drive slowly in the rain, so a controlled 120–125 km/h cornering pace still wins comfortably while keeping you on track.\n\nFor the final stage's under-200-second goal on Circuit B Reverse, the realistic target is around the 1:45–1:55 range based on a clean run, so the time limit is generous as long as you avoid full crashes.\n\nStages 4 and 6 run in the rain regardless of the pre-race weather setting | Image credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Verifying completion\n\nThe result screen after each stage lists every objective with a check next to the ones you cleared. If all three objectives show as completed, the next stage button advances you to the following race. After the sixth stage, choosing Leave returns you to the open world, and the Sunday team defeat is recorded.\n\nConfirmation that the full Sunday challenge counted: the Defeat the \"Sunday\" racing team achievement triggers, paying out Annulith x5, and the accumulated flags from each completed objective tick toward the team's Star Reward milestones, which include additional Annulith and Fons.\n\nImage credit: __Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@StingKnight)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Common reasons stages fail\n\nIssue| Cause\n---|---\nCannot enter the race| Car has low durability, or you brought a bike/scooter\nNPC not available| In-game time is outside 8 PM – 8 AM\nSpinning out on corners| Drifting instead of braking, or rain on standard tires\nMissed 100m lead objective| Lost too much speed at one corner; the AI catches up on coastal straights\nFailed sub-200s on stage 6| Multiple wall hits without using Position Reset\n\nWith a clean line on each circuit, the entire Sunday chain runs in well under fifteen minutes of race time. Once Sunday is cleared, the same approach scales to Coastal Drift, the other one-star difficulty team, before stepping up to Full Throttle and the harder mountain courses.",
