Cashless Customs
“Quality is Cashless”

Weekly Forzathon Challenge
“Above and Beyond”
1972 Land Rover Series III - SC 114 928 429 (C600)
You’ll be needing a C class tune for a cross country race this week, just so happens this tune will also complete the Trailblazer requirement as well! Hit the “Malpais” Trailblazer with a head of steam and roll on to the finish line!

The Trial
“Ad-Van-Ture Time” A800 Sports Utility Heroes
2018 Mini John Cooper Works Countryman All4 - SC 162 511 089 (A800)
Powerful, sturdy, quick, and built to offroad…yes I’m talking about this Mini! Plus, who wants to drive a behemoth on the “Urban Cross Country Circuit”?

Eventlab
“Sand Bank Slalom Beach Party '27” A800 Offroad
Just pick something

Seasonal Championships
“Sick Dunes” A Class Unlimited Offroad
2004 Nissan Pickup #23 Rally Raid - SC 847 991 817 (A800)
I haven’t used it yet, and my guess is you haven’t either. Drag it out and get it dirty…that’s what its built for!

“Cupra Formenter VZ5” A Class Cupra Formenter
Cupra Formenter VZ5 - SC 338 586 453 (A800)
I chose this car because…well, we have to! It’s a great tune, enjoy! Plus, the car was given to you, splurge on the tune…its Cashless.

Rally Adventure Seasonal Championship
“Too Hot 2 Handle” B Class Hot Hatch
2011 Volkswagen Scirocco R - SC 224 309 183 (B700)
I just wanted to drive a car that I have a hard time spelling!

HW Seasonal Championship
“Orient-Steering” B Class Modern Rally
2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR - SC 134 438 401 (B700)
If you don’t have this tune, get it! You’ll probably only need it 53 times over the next 3 months…

PR Stunts S2 998 Anything Goes
Dangersign “La Mesa”
Trailblazer “Jungle Traversal”?
RA Dangersign “La Cantera”
HW Speedzone “Treetops”
2020 Koenigsegg Jesko - SC 151 292 347 (S2 998)
These may be a little tricky but are doable. Not sure about the Trailblazer as it’s seasonal and I couldn’t test it…

I hope these work well for everyone this week and as always, thanks for keeping it Cashless!!

Happy driving all!

[Laberbacke]

Rawr.

[RikkiTorment]

Can we get the ability to put our driver in the other seats of the car?

Looking for that “clueless Golden Retriever stare from the backseat,” kind of look, or even the trunk lol

[BravoSteelviper]

So for trial liveries so far I’ve got 3 options on the
2018 Mini John Cooper Works Countryman All4… and you can represent your country! (Or not… I only made 3 so far):
Liberty: 836 345 816
l’Unifolie: 411 393 606
Union Jack: 956 733 218

For non-trial, I’ve got a new livery pattern I’m featuring this week…
“Elixir”

Jesko: 156 532 630

Forgot to put the “Tune by Cashless” on the Minis, but obviously that’s who I’ll be running in the trial. (Cranked 3 liveries out in about half an hour, so it was my rushing that was likely the issue.)

I’ll probably add some more trial liveries as more tunes become prevalent. Current work in progress is the rampant lion for the Scottish flag.

Current state of the rampant lion:

Currently coloring in. That crimson color everywhere except the claws and the tongue, pretty much.

2019 Deberti F250 “Liberty”: 387 557 305

2021 Formenter “Liberty”: 356 907 359

2011 Scirocco (for the B class hot hatch): 816 305 681
This one IS marked Tuned by Cashless customs:

[geistwriter]

I don’t usually take aim at other people’s creations, but the eventlab was unacceptably bad. let alone for a playlist feature. I don’t even have words, it was 100% wrong.

[TheWarmWind76]

Why only 2 championships this week? As if racing endgame weren’t thin enough already.

[Bloomy]

When did they start using tuned AI in the Trial again? 3 of us were tuned to 800, 1 to 796, 2 I’m guessing weren’t tuned. Of the AI, 3 were also tuned to 800. Didn’t catch if the other AI were matched to the PI of the other players.

[Laberbacke]

DONKEY!

The equipment is right where I’m parked. No idea what “wildlife” I’m supposed to take a picture of, my car seems to count

[GreaseRodSucho]

GMC Hummer EV sounded really, really loud, like powered dental equipment. It did handle fine but with a max speed of 110 mph it’s not worth it without mods.

[Scimmia22]

They fixed that bug last series.

[CashlessPlains8]

I managed two 2nd place finishes with it. Started last both times and a Defender 20 reeled me in on the straights at the end.

I hope your issues get sorted out.

[T10ManteoMax]

@Laberbacke

No idea what “wildlife” I’m supposed to take a picture of, my car seems to count

There are donkeys roaming around near the camera equipment.

[robotiChart]

An easy win on urban (twice) and a 6th on the sprint - got sideways and recovered but was passed and didn’t have the top speed to catch. All human tho.

Just needed to quit game and restart. Quick resume on xsx seems to break the trial the last few seasons

[Laberbacke]

I found them now but I’m pretty sure they were not in frame when I took a picture.

[El_Barto_inc]

With my beer in hand … uuuups … driving skill enhancement drug
Here are my picks
Trial
Jaguar F-Pace S - 215 050 559
or Aston Martin DBX (SUV with V12 racing engine revving past 11k, what’s not to love) - 102 924 982
or Land Rover range Rover Velar - 842 272 837

Championships
Unlimited Offroad Jeep Trailcat - 107 386 030
Cupra Ferm … Form … that random VAG suv - 712 945 735

Event Lab
SUV’s one from Trial picks
Offroad Capable Trailcat from championship

PR stunts
Danger Sign and Trailblazer Koenigsegg Jesko - 127 012 221

Forzathon Car Land Rover Series 3 - 162 977 937
Good for C class Cross Country win and also 2 star Malpais Trailblazer.

Treasure hunt to be done, I’ll just stick with trusty Deberti F-150 Prerunner

and

Hot Wheels DLC
Speed Zone - Koenigsegg Jesko - 184 433 210
Championship (Road with bumps, Cross Country and Ice, didn’t expect too much, but it did the job) Subaru WRX STI '11 - 152 529 699

Rally Adventure DLC
Danger Sign (aim under the bridge and don’t take too much of a run up, because you’ll do big double bounce) - Koenigsegg Jesko - 127 012 221
Championship Renault Clio R.S. 200 EDC - 860 195 211

As always take care everyone and have fun, BB

Edit
Even though I planned to do Trial some time next week, I went for it now. Jag is a beast - 2 wins, only competition was somebody in Trackhawk, AI was no threat at all.

Made a mess out of creative hub with tunes, so deleted all and written new share codes

[Mr_Keebler7102]

Probably not the section to post in(the troubleshooting section wouldnt let me post it) but, has anyone else noticed when doing the seasonal rivals that it only gives you one point per instead of the 4 points that it says it will give you for completing it?
