Happy driving all!!!

I came up with a livery for the trial car. It features a vinyl group that’s an excerpt from a Green Day album:
Also features the “tune by Cashless Customs” for those taking advantage of that tune.

I find it interesting that you can have “King” in the title of a shared item, but “Queen” is off limits.
Here’s a closer look at the vinyl group on the livery:
The album cover vinyl group weighs in at 918 layers, and was my biggest undertaking to date.

Ah yes, started the new season, went for the seasonal danger sign and then Forza happened

Thank you! 
I hope it works well for you! 
And yes the Queen thing is dumb 
Were do we find a pinata for the weekly???
Wow, using the Statium Jump Danger Sign for a seasonal when we have the stunt park is just evil.

Unlike last weeks trial with the mini. I’m seeing most people running a tune on the Alpine. I will have my tunes up later today.

Looks like another great selection of tunes (& taglines
) Clearly a lot of time & effort invested in these every week, so nice work! I’m sure it’s appreciated.
++ @TonyKartRcr as well for his weekly tune contributions!

Just one run yet this week but it was half tuned, half stock. Still, good driving by all ! Even the AI seemed well behaved lol.

Nice alpine tune. (As usual!)
Beat the power build on the dirt sections.
Decent trial tracks.
Pity the alpine was my go-to last week for a championship (think it was last week)

I’m having massive issues with the final step of the weekly forzathon as I am rubbish at drifting. Any advice before my head explodes?
There’s an empty field with some hills just east of town, between two XP boards with the Panoramica drift zone between them. Just hoon around there for an ultimate drift, not much traffic on the roads to mess it up or obstacles in the way.
EDIT for corrections and clearer specifics

Hope you caught my edit lol… I meant East of town
