SEASON EVENT DETAILS
Toggle the menu to show the rewards and restrictions for each event - if you complete the event in a car outside the restrictions or fail to meet the target, you won’t get the reward and points from completion. You must have unlocked the Hall of Fame with Accolade points to enter the Trial. Access to Rally Adventure events require defeating the three team champions. Access to Hot Wheels events requires the Hot Wheels Expansion DLC; users without the DLC will still be able to gold the season and unlock the “Min, Meet Max” Achievement without these event points.

That Earn an Ebisu Style skill combo daily will be a pain. I’m guessing the sand dunes at Dunas Blancas will be the best place to try but it isn’t an easy skill to trigger.

I will say, that it’s a shame that there’s no way to see what your vinyl group ACTUALLY looks like without applying it on a car. The editor and the preview can give a false sense of security, as when you got to apply it at full size (1.0) there can often be gaps. Since you can’t see them in the editor, I often resort to taking pics on my phone for reference and then just patching it over in the editor. Now granted… folks are seldom going to use anything I make at 1.0 size. Still… it’d be nice not to have those unpleasant surprises.
“Trial Killer” is a reference to @TonyKartRcr’s tune for the 04 Subaru.
I normally don’t share tune codes but here’s trial killer
Subaru 2004 Impreza WRX STI: 105 286 919
Shift around 5500k rpms, if I recall correctly. One of the few cars that I run m/c for.
I just installed that @TonyKartRcr tune, and did a rivals run on Tres Colinas. I was about to test my previous tune, only to realize it was another car with the same tune installed LOL. Good tune indeed!
it remains to be seen if the 4 Chinese MG cars will be eligible for the championship, since they’re UK categorized. would require a custom blueprint from PG
My Fastback came through in the Trial. We lost the first race but they gave us the victory after two races.
Not surprisingly, most of the team showed up in stock 2000 SVT Cobra’s.
If anyone ends up struggling to the Ebisu Style skill, try my stunt skill point event lab island map;
The ultimate drift car SP map!: share code: 146 442 621
The entire event lab island is covered with props and mini ramps/jumps. Just drift and jump over any small ramp (with bowling pins or the double ramp) and you’re good.
A fastback was the fastest in my group as well. I was driving your 65 tune, which performed well. We also ended up hitting Mangrove Scramble as well because we lost the second race (you need about 3 leaders to carry the team, and one of them fell all the way to the back on the trail).
I chose the Fastback because it was faster and had much better acceleration despite being much heavier than the '65.
We should have had to do the third race, but they gave us the win after a loss and a win.
Wouldn’t have minded doing the 3rd race because at that point there was only 2 humans left.
I never could get the livery to stick on the '65 for some reason.
