After completing a job online with some friends I received: 15 JP, 2590 RP (Experience) and ~$3500.
I am assuming JP stands for Job Points? .. What are they used for?

JP are indeed job points. As of now - they are used to determine tiebreakers. They are shown in the list of players and reset to 0 after every session.

There is not much information on JP.
Some call it Job Points, others Judge Points. The only thing I could muster was a theory.
Since you lose JP every time you die or lose a game mode, can be considered a score of consecutive victories to determine your ranking in the Playlist, and other players can judge you if you are a good choice for the amount of JP.

'What's the fastest car in GTA Online?' is a tricky question. Is it the fastest car in a short drag race? Around a standard circuit with corners? With the highest top speed? Going in reverse then pulling a J-turn and accelerating up to 60mph?
There are a lot of variables that it's possible to measure speed over, but for the purposes of this article I'm going to focus on two of the most useful—lap times and top speed. Listed below will be the five fastest non-rocket powered cars around a regular circuit in GTA Online (where braking, cornering and acceleration all play a part in getting a quick lap time), followed by the five fastest non-rocket powered cars on a long straight piece of road (when all cars are travelling at their maximum speed).
Looking at the best cars across these two metrics will then allow us to infer what the best overall car might be for GTA 5. The following results come from the very detailed and scientific car testing I carried out on this YouTube channel. Check out these lap times and top speeds docs for an overview of my methodology.
This article has also been updated in May 2019 to be correct as of the Arena War DLC, and only focuses on “normal” cars, i.e. those that don’t get a benefit from external boosts and can be used in regular races. The main notable exceptions from doing this are the Rocket Voltic, Scramjet, Vigilante, and Arena War vehicles with Nitrous Boost upgrades.
Lap times of the fastest GTA Online cars
5th—Principe Deveste Eight (1:00.261)
4th: Overflod Autarch—0:59.960
3rd: Ocelot XA-21—0:59.927
2nd: Annis RE-7B—0:59.727
1st: Dewbauchee Vagner—0:59.194
Top speeds of the fastest GTA Online cars
5th—Överflöd Entity XXR (128 mph)
4th—Bravado Banshee 900R (131.0 mph)
3rd—Principe Deveste Eight (131.8 mph)
2nd—Pfister 811 (132.5 mph)
1st—Ocelot Pariah (136.0 mph)
From the above you now know the cars you want if you have a corner-heavy race and a long top speed race. But having the best in one situation doesn't necessarily mean you'll have the best in the other. For example, the XA-21 is pretty low down in the overall top speed list for supercars (25th) despite being in the top five for lap times. In addition, the 811, Banshee 900R and Entity XXR are nowhere to be seen when it comes to the overall lap times list for supercars (30th, 37th and 35th respectively) despite being in the top five for top speeds.
So what should you buy? Well there are a number of different situations you could find yourself in, and you’ll want a different car for each.
Best GTA Online car for any Sports class race
You may not notice that one of the cars in the above lists actually isn’t in the Supercars class (where all the others lie). The Pariah, our number one quickest car in the game for top speed, is actually in the Sports class and would fall into 7th place for the lap time list as well if we went that far down. It being able to mix it in with supercars for lap time and decimate them all for top speed should tell you all you need to know—if it’s a sports class race, just use a Pariah.
Best GTA Online car for a Rockstar-created stunt track
In this kind of situation a good balance between lap time and top speed is essential, since most Rockstar stunt races are frankly not that challenging from a cornering perspective. However they do still require a car to be able to take corners at high speed when it isn’t focusing on utilising its top speed 90-95% of the time. Therefore there is one clear suggestion from our lists, and it’s the only one that features in both—the Deveste Eight.
Best GTA Online car for a long highway race
If you’re going to be spending your time racing around the highways of Los Santos you might as well try to get it done as quickly as possible (since you’ll probably be bored after 30 seconds). In this case top speed matters most as corners are few and far between, so for supercar races that leaves our number two vehicle overall—the 811. This car will be even quicker on PC at higher framerates due to a bug with its suspension physics too.
Best GTA Online car for supercar races
If you’re driving on a track that is either primarily corners or has a balance of corners and straights, and is set up like most regular racing circuits you’d see in real life, there is usually one option that will get the job done in the majority of cases. There’s a reason it tops the list for lap time—the Vagner will dominate most cars if utilised effectively. It can take corners at higher speeds than anything else in the game and is actually only 5 mph down on the 811 for top speed. It’s the king for most supercar races.
Overall Winner: Dewbauchee Vagner
The Vagner is nearly 0.7 seconds quicker than the Autarch, RE-7B and XA-21 around a lap and has a higher top speed than all of them. The Deveste Eight is a few mph quicker than it and the Pariah a few more, but it’s then more than 1-1.5 seconds quicker than both around a 60 second lap. It’s also the cheapest of the supercars, setting you back $1,535,000 in comparison to the $1,795,000 for the Deveste Eight, $1,955,000 for the Autarch, $2,375,000 for the XA-21, and $2,475,000 for the RE-7B. While it may take some practice to master, it’s not possible to look beyond the Vagner’s better price and lap time when compared to the other top cars. In the end the Vagner should be a top priority on your shopping list, since no other car can come close to dethroning it for overall performance in most situations.
Building a collection of GTA Online's fastest cars doesn't come cheap. For the best strategies to make quick cash, read our comprehensive guide for how to make money in GTA Online.
The latest Update/DLC for GTA Online is finally here, and it's called After Hours. The new content allows players to buy one of the 10 available nightclubs within the city. All of the clubs look basically the same from the inside and have the same functions, so the only way you can figure out which club is the best for you is by looking at its location on the map.
From a subjective point of view, you'll want to choose a club that is located the closest to your offices and apartments. However, there are several objective reasons as well, such as quick access to highways, landing zones, and missions.
This guide will provide you with the list of the five best nightclubs in the After Hours DLC based on these points.
Related Content:
Del Perro Nightclub
Del Perro isn't the most expensive club in the After Hours DLC, but it is definitely the most reasonable one. The location is perfect as it is right near the highway and there is quick access to the beach.
It is also not in the northern part of the map, which is the hottest, so it won't attract as many gangs, and you will easily avoid any confrontations. Lastly, it is located very close to the aircraft spawns and the building looks really cool from the outside.
The only drawback is that it is located on the edge of the map, which means that supply runs will take longer.
Downtown Vinewood Nightclub
If you have the cash and want to buy the most expensive nightclub in the After Hours DLC, it would still be better to buy the Downtown Vinewood club, which is just a pinch cheaper.
Gta V Special Vehicles List
After all, it is located in the northern part of the city, which is a huge plus, since this is where most of the missions take place. This makes it incredibly convenient for aircraft landing, while the main garage door gives you access to both north and south roads.
However, there is one thing that might make you look out for another club and that's an awfully dirty location with several dumpsters around. So if this is somehow a factor for you, then you should consider it before buying the Downtown Vinewood club.
Vespucci Canals Nightclub
If you're tight on money, but you still want a nightclub at the beach, and you can't afford the Del Perro one, then opt for the Vespucci Canals nightclub. It doesn't look nearly as good as Del Perro, but it has almost the same advantages and costs $325,000 less, which is a really good deal when you think about it.
As a result, you will have the same access to aircraft spawns on the beach and the highway right around the corner.
LSIA Nightclub
If you look carefully at the updated map, you will notice that the most southern clubs are the cheapest. The reason is that it is far harder to run supplies to those locations and generally do any missions. That's why the cheapest club in the After Hours DLC is the one on the Elysian island.
However, there is a club that is both super cheap and can be a good spot to buy, if you're short on cash. And that's the LSIA club. However, in order for this location to work, you first need to have the Exceptionalists Way and Greenwich Parkway properties. These will make car transfers into an easy way of making lots of money.
Strawberry Nightclub
The last really good location for a nightclub in the After Hours DLC would be in the center of the city, which belongs to Strawberry nightclub. It is also the most attractive-looking club after Del Perro -- and it is also slightly cheaper.
Just like Del Perro, the Strawberry Nightclub has quick access to a highway and due to it residing in the center of the city, you can easily go to any part of the map for various side missions.
All in all, it's a great spot unless you're looking to be in the center of events. In that case, buy a club in the northern part of the map.

Is it possible to shake off a bounty in GTA Online?
If so, how?

Bounties can be put on you by other players or sometimes by NPC's if you steal their car. If nobody kills you after one full in-game day (48 minutes real time), the bounty will expire and you receive the cash. There's even an achievement to do this.
Spending time in LS Customs does not count toward the 48 minutes. You are best off hiding in your garage or a remote location if playing in a public game. Or if you really want to shake it without the heat, just play in a private game for a while and it will go away once time is up.

'You can only place bounties on people level 10 or above.
Bounties stick to you until they're claimed or until you survive for 30 minutes, after that you get to keep the money from the bounty.
It is possible that an Npc May put a bounty on you for stealing their car or killing a friend/member of their gang. I believe all odd denominations of thousands of dollars are bounties placed by npcs, ($1000, $3000, $5000, $7000)
Bounties also transfer across lobbies until they are collected, my best advice is to have a friend or crew member so that at least someone in your circle benefits. I received a $9000 bounty and requested my friend shoot my in the head after I had one last smoke. '
That's what I found.

I'm running from a $9000 one right now. I suggest jumping on a train in private, seeing as NPCs are too dumb to get on one. Also, press R1/RB to lay low. Fallout 4 spring in the commonwealth time. But make sure you don't idle too long, or you'll get kicked for it.

If you don't want to wait out the 48 minutes, I would suggest going into a private lobby with a friend and having them shoot you. Then you guys can split the bounty 50/50.

I suggest just to let a crew member or friend kill you and split the bounty. If you don't have any, don't hide, but take your chances. I never saw a bounty higher than $9000 and if you have to wait 30 or 48 minutes, then it's not beneficial, because there are a lot of other ways to make even more money in the same amount of time. Even stealing a car and sell it to LS customs gives you more money and it only takes a few minutes or even less than a minute. Hiding from bounty is a waste of time. I have a bounty right now and I'm not hiding. I'm just doing missions and ignoring it and guess what? In less than 2 minutes I get the money for the bounty!

Just hide/wait it out. The hospital bill makes the 50/50 split a non-starter for me.
