CSR2 Crews Guide: Crew RP, Championship and Wildcards

You can play CSR2 alone, but you’ll leave rewards on the table. Crews pool every member’s racing into one total, and that total is what decides the biggest shared prizes in the game. Here’s how crews work, based on the game’s help centre, and how to make sure you’re in one that pulls its weight.

What a crew is

A crew is a group of players racing together. Being in one unlocks bonuses and perks for every member, and each crew has a Crew Hangout where you manage membership and follow your crew’s standing.

Crew RP: every race counts

If you’re in a crew, every race you complete earns Crew RP, and all the RP you earn goes towards your crew’s total. That’s the key thing to understand: your crew’s score is everyone’s racing added together. A crew of active players climbs quickly; a crew full of members who stopped playing barely moves, however hard you race yourself.

The Crew Championship

The Crew Championship is where Crew RP turns into prizes. You can follow your crew’s position under the Championship option in the Crew Hangout.

The way it pays out has changed. Rewards used to depend mostly on where your crew finished on the leaderboard. They now come from milestones: reach a Crew RP milestone as a crew and everyone who took part gets that reward. The game says this makes purple-star car rewards more accessible than ever. In one recent season, every participant in a crew that reached the highest milestone received a McLaren Artura Spider.

That’s good news for ordinary players. You don’t need to be in one of the very top crews; you need to be in an active crew that can reach the milestones.

Wildcards

Wildcards are limited-time crew bonuses, such as a boost that helps the whole crew. One rule matters: unused Wildcard tokens are lost when the Crew Championship season ends. Use them during the season rather than saving them.

Legendary players

In the Live Race lobby, some players are marked “Legendary”. That marks players in a crew that’s performing strongly in the current Championship season, so it’s a quick sign of who’s in a strong crew.

Leaving a crew, and inactive leaders

• To leave: open the Crew Hangout, tap Manage at the bottom, then use the Leave tab.
• Inactive leader: if your crew leader hasn’t logged in for a few weeks, members can choose to overthrow them and take over. A crew doesn’t have to die just because its leader stopped playing.

How to choose a good crew

Because Crew RP is everyone’s racing combined, the best crew for you is an active one, not just a big one:

• Check the members are still racing. A full crew of inactive players is worth less than a smaller crew that plays every day.
• Look at the Championship standing in the Crew Hangout before you commit.
• Pull your weight. Your races count for everyone, and the Race Pass adds to it: its last Free-track milestone gives 100,000 Crew RP. Our Race Pass guide covers it.
• Race a competitive car. More wins means more racing, and our best cars by tier list shows which cars lead each tier.

Reaching the milestones takes a lot of racing, and a competitive car makes every race count. If you’d rather not wait on crate luck for parts, every car in our car collection can be added to your own account fully maxed, and our maxed cars guide explains what that includes.

The short version

Crews pool every member’s racing into Crew RP, and the Crew Championship now rewards crews for reaching RP milestones, including a purple-star car for everyone at the top milestone. Join an active crew, use Wildcards before the season ends, and remember an inactive leader can be replaced. Your Race Pass progress helps the crew too.
