How to unlock the Race Day Leader achievement in Need For Speed ProStreet - Definitive Guide
As of April 13th 2012 this achievement is no longer obtainable due to server closure.
This is a way to earn the achievement by yourself.
I got tired of trying to find people for this Achievement so I decided to try something out.
First thing first, if you don't already have a couple extra accounts then go make 3 up before you you start anything, they don't have to be gold accounts but they do have to be live accounts.
Next add the 3 accounts to your friends list (you can remove them later). Now that you have that done throw in NFS Prostreet and go and create a Raceday. Make sure you set the Raceday up for SINGLE PLAYER, NOT mutiplayer or splitscreen. Set the rest of the options like which track and whatnot however you want, when I did this it was on a Raceday with only one drag race.
Ok so at this point you should have 3 extra accounts, the 3 accounts added to your friends list and a single player Raceday made. Now go to Share and share the Raceday with the 3 accounts that you made up.
Now before you sign out with the account that you want the achievement for, go back into Raceday and play the Raceday that you made and sent to the 3 other accounts, set the highest score you can (even tho it doesn't really matter that much).
Ok, so now you are the leader for your Raceday but the only problem is that there is no one else ranked on the leaderboard for the Raceday you made. This is where those 3 extra accounts come into play.
Exit to the dashboard to sign out of your account and sign in with anyone of the 3 bogus accounts you made. Fire up Prostreet and go to Share to D/L the Raceday you sent earlier, once you have it D/Led go back to Raceday and play it (Ranked). The goal is to finish the race with a lower score then the Raceday Leader, your score must be greater than 0 for it to count.
Then just rinse and repeat untill all of your accounts have raced on your Raceday and have set a score.
After you have finished everything wait 1-24 hours and then go back into the Raceday with the account that is in first place and play the Raceday again, as soon as your done with the race the Achievement should pop.
A few things that you need to make sure are done right.
1. Make sure when setting up the Raceday that it is set up as Singleplayer.
2. Make sure EVERYONE races the Raceday RANKED.
3. Make sure that everyone has a score, so if you are doing a drag race don't just get false starts with the bogus accounts, take them down the track at least once and make sure they finish with a score greater then 0
4. Do not delete the Raceday from anyones profile untill you unlock the achievement.
5. the achievement will NOT pop in the main menu you have to wait 24 hours (I think) and play the Raceday again with the account that is the leader and it will unlock after you are done the race/Raceday.
Edit: I have been recently informed that you do not need to wait the 24 hour period, how long you have to wait is unclear (maybe a few races or events) but you do not need to wait the 24 hour period. Credit goes to z71fox for the information.

The fastest way to do this online (without dummy accts) is to Create a Raceday blueprint and share it to your 3 boost partners. While they are accepting it, run your own race at a ok, but not great time (1/4-mile drag works great for this). Then, after your time posts to the leaderboard go back to main menu and have the other 3 run the raceday that was shared and lose (must finish though and get some points or won't count, i.e., they have to post to leaderboard with something. A drive slow loss in drag, if you finish, is like 250 points.) Finally, after the other 3 run the raceday, the person going for the achievement re-runs their own raceday with best time possible so that you beat your old and everyone else's time. Then go back to main menu.
Pay attention to 3 of 5 of Rusty187's advice for "A few things that you need to make sure are done right.
1. Make sure when setting up the Raceday that it is set up as Singleplayer.
2. Make sure EVERYONE races the Raceday RANKED.
3. Make sure that everyone has a score, so if you are doing a drag race don't just get false starts or blown engine take them down the track at least once and make sure they finish with a score greater then 0.
For his 4 & 5...
The ONLY person that has to worry about not deleting the race day is the organizer. The challengers can delete after they run it, if needed.
Finally, this should pop straight away, if you do the two runs with the return to the main menu or at least within a few minutes - It did for the 8 of us boosting this cheevo.
Happy Hunting!
