A row of podiums for race rankings at the Used Car Yard seen at the end of a Race.
Race is a Special Feature in The Getaway: Black Monday. It is pretty self-explanatory by the name. The player is put against five other racers and the objective is to win by being the first person to pass the finish line. In race mode, the player cannot exit their vehicle, there is no traffic, and there are barriers that stop the player from deviating off from the roads they should be racing on. There are 20 races altogether and most of them need to be unlocked by finding key rings during the missions.
During a race, the player has the option to take shortcuts or alternative routes by crashing through cones or barriers, instead of following the actual route. Leaving the course for too long will result in the player failing the race.
At the end of a race, the winner of each race and where each racer finished is seen in a cutscene. The cutscene takes place at the Used Car Yard and each car is placed under a podium to show where they came. The rankings are as follows:
- First - Car of the Week
- Second - Beautiful Condition
- Third - Any Reasonable Trial
- Fourth - Some Service History
- Fifth - Careful Lady Owner
- Sixth/Last - Low Deposit
