“Teams of two split into Runners and Blockers. Runners aim to be the first to get to the end of a route. Protectors, in faster and more powerful vehicles, must block and run opposing Runners off the road, while protecting their Runner from the other teams.”

“Runners collect checkpoints in a set order while Blockers catch up and try to help their Runners win in any way they can.”

Description[]
“In this checkpoint Adversary Mode, teams of two are divided into Runners and Blockers. While the goal of the Runners is to get to the end of the route first, the Blockers (in faster, more powerful vehicles) must block the opposing Runners from finishing while also protecting their teammate from enemy assault.”
— Rockstar Newswire Description.
The players are divided into teams of two. One player will be the Runner and one player will be the Blocker. Players can choose from a variety of vehicles to use.
The Runners of each team will participate in a point-to-point Race driving a Voodoo, whilst the Blockers try to prevent the other team's Runners from getting to the checkpoints, whilst simultaneously protecting their own runner from other Blockers. However, the Blockers are unable to see the checkpoints on the map.
The winners are the first team whose Runner collects all of the checkpoints and finishes the race.
