Well not EVERYONE LIKES TO PVP and want to collect these cars, and you people who deny this with the dumb ‘get via pvp’ bs ruins that experience. I went through 5 races of people using the same car. Even when I use the same car as them I get 5th to last place every time.
I don’t care about how hard you work. not everyone drives like you.

So what your saying is my time is less valuable then yours, I dont like PVP either, but I am putting in the time to get the car. If they are just going to give everyone the car then dont even have a challenge. It makes the car worthless in rarity and value so why even bother. I remember spending days lapping just to get a unicorn car in forza motorsport 4 and they didnt gift it to everyone else. they made vehicle special and rare and made them worth having, but when they just give the car away its worthless

A car that’s worth having is worth having regardless of how many people have it. I think they should gift the car to everyone and then replace yours with a poop emoji hat. That way you can be happy because you have something no one else has which apparently makes it extremely valuable, and everyone else can be happy to have a car that shouldn’t have been locked behind PvP nonsense in the first place.

No, that’s not what I’m saying. You want time and a challenge? Go play ranked. Forzathon events are supposed to be FUN challenges which were never difficult to begin with. There was some in Fh 3, but it WAS NOT TIED TO PVP WINS. You use the arguement that it makes the car worthless, then why do people get the rewards if they’re ‘useless’ in the other events from past forzathons? Forza motorsport 4 is not forza horizon 4. Simulation is meant to be competitive. Don’t want to give the car away for free? then they shouldn’t tie it to PVP in the first place.

Exactly.
Making a car easy to get will not decrease its rarity. A lot of the Forzathon cars in FH3 eventually got a task so easy your grandmother could do them, and they still sell for 20 million CR on the auction house to this day.
I have it and I think they should give it to everyone. If they want to make it challenging do a 20 race championship against unbeatable drivatars on S2 or something. You spend more time waiting to race and sitting in a loading screen than you do racing. Victory is more determined by who got the good start positions.

I do agree the waiting time for the drag races is a little long and i also agree on the starting positions part, but only for the last race though the other seem pretty fair in my eyes
it would be easier to do a spin for it, as everyone is in the same car, using the same basic setup, due to the silly limits we get, a setion of cars with a very slim selection, and max 600? would have WAY more fun, and an actual test of skill to do a ‘Anything goes’ on that challenge, atm its just a lottery with car sounds(poor sounds at that even)
I dont think its necessarily a lottery system, but of course this isnt the perfect challenge and yea an open class would have been much more interesting power over grip or rip over power, something we cant really test in this one, but still I thought it to be a fun challenge
I’m going to have to disagree on that one. It is more or less a lottery, and that’s because drag races are incredibly close compared to other racing disciplines, particularly when 50-75% of the participants are using the same car and nearly the same tune. At that point, you start seeing the issues people are complaining about, like desynchronization causing players to “win” only to lose due to latency, tied championships (I saw two in my first three attempts) where the arbitrarily designated “second place” player doesn’t get the reward, etc. If the bug that allows people to trick the game into letting them join with any car is still present, that effectively nullifies any competitive balance anyway.
Wait a month or two and put it in the Forzathon Shop for 1000FP.
right? Its going to happen anyway, so why gift them out dont even make it 1000 it can be 500 or even less, but when they just give everyone a free car I just dont get it
This is my vote too. Gives people who care the ability to peacock about how they’ve got it for a while, and then gives collectors who might not like PvP the ability to add it to their garage for a premium price.
The only reason they were gifting cars, is because the Trial was bugged for a lot of people. If the drag racing thing isn’t bugged, I don’t know why they’d do the same thing.
It’s not all about you
But that is the way people are nowadays……. people only think of themselves !!

I know that, its about the thousands of players who are working their butts off to receive something special for their hard work, but that is the way people are nowadays…people only think of themselves and everyone needs a trophy. I didn’t know didly squat about drag racing, but I worked hard to learn and eventually I did win today. Same thing happened several years ago, I knew nothing about manual w/ clutch, but I learned so I could get better. The point is why put a challenge in the game to begin with if they are just going to give it to everyone via a gift. I don’t mind it being available later, shoot make it a Forzathon shop reward at a later date, I don’t care, but whats the point of a challenge if no reward, no end goal

Its a GLITCHY championship !
PI 957 !
They will give the car for sure to all of the participants just like they did before when is a glitch .
Yea Id report that player and just leave the race
If gifting the Rip Rod resulted in making one person angry but a hundred people happy, then I hope they do it.

I thin the best case solution is leave it as it is for a day or 2 then add in an alternate method to getting it (and give those who did it prior a wee extra bonus such as a superwheelspin or something)
