Yeah, like I said, you'd have to be a really big fan of D2 or that sort of game.
(or be competitive, the race events are very competitive)
I've only broke the top 1000 on the 2 hour solo race so far. They have them all hours of the day or night, different versions, etc.
This season's signature race is a timed race, 1-hour, or 2. You just try to level the fastest, or complete certain sidequests first. (or both)
