Time Stamps:
00:00 - Failing "Badlands A" whilst obtaining the BP/EP/FP/MP/EC2 (Bullet Proof, Explosion Proof, Fire Proof, Melee Proof, and Exclusive Secondary Color) Vermilion Solid Fortune
21:05 - Proving the BP/EP/FP/MP Properties and showing off the BP/EP/FP/MP/EC2 Fortune
This Method will work EXACTLY as shown on PS2, Xbox, PC, and Mobile since all of these Platforms/Versions allow the Method shown in the Video. Unfortunately, it DOES NOT WORK on the Definitive Edition. The Definite Edition has an alternative Method that will work!
You can recruit a Grove Street Gang Member BEFORE or AFTER you begin the actual Race. I chose to get one BEFORE beginning the Race, but it's quicker to actually get one AFTER activating the Race. While you wait for the other Vehicles to finish the Race, you can get a Grove Street Gang Member in this time period while you wait and STILL make it back before they finish the Race.
In 99% of all cases when you want to obtain a Race Vehicle, you will NEED a Grove Street Gang Member, no matter what, since they are the only ones to open up the doors of these locked Vehicles. Unfortunately, each time you kill one of them, it'll be recorded in the Stats by the "Friendly Gang Member Kills" Stat.
Note that this Mission is actually "Wu Zi Mu." The Fortune is obtainable during the actual Mission, but it would cost a Mission Failure! Obtaining it AFTER all the Races are complete is the way to go because you won't get any added Mission Attempts to the Stats and can conserve valuable storage space early on when you're in The Country portion of the Story.
You DO NOT have to push the Fortune to a Garage like shown in the Video. Instead, if you want, you can push it all the way back to Los Santos and the Race Board. After the Race ends and you exit the screen, the Fortune will still be near you where you pushed it too.
There is actually FIVE other Race Vehicles that are rather valuable and you should consider obtaining them. ALL Vehicles found in Races are FP. They are the FP/EC2 Vermilion Solid Stallion, FP/EC2 Vermilion Solid Sabre, FP/EC2 Vermilion Solid Sultan, FP/EC2 Vermilion Solid ZR-350, and EC2 Black ZR-350 found in "Badlands A" and "Badlands B." Since the Methods are identical to what I show for the Fortune, I will just link Videos showing these other Race Vehicles instead of recording them myself. FP/EC2 Stallion/Sabre - youtube.com/watch?v=AThJDrapPsw and FP/EC2 Sultan/ZR-350/EC2 ZR-350 - youtube.com/watch?v=urbMQvewOiA
The EC2 on this Fortune can not be seen in-game and can only be seen when viewing your Save File under a Save Editor. Visually in-game, it will look like any ordinary Fortune.
I am recording this Video on PCSX2 Version 1.6.0. Game Version is SLUS-20946 (Version 1.03) of GTA San Andreas for PS2.
