Its not full, its a bug. Exit the car into something else, then go back to the new car. It’ll be empty.

And yet, as a friend and I comically discovered while trying to do the same drift zone from opposite directions, you chose to leave collisions on for a convoy in PR Zones (and co-op races for that matter).
Am I blind or are there no Arcade events on the hot wheels map?
I’m enjoying my time with the expansion so far for sure, but I’m disappointed that arcade seems to just be forgotten about. By players and developers.
I reached legend (x class), only to find out i’m still not able to drive any x-class car. I can get in one, and drive a few meters, before it tells me i’m not yet qualified to use X-class, while i for sure am.
I already filed a bug report
It was fun till it lasts, but now I am already finished all achievements and got all 5000 medals for Hot Wheels, it is a bigger map than the Hot Wheels DLC for Forza Horizon 3 but it seems to be a bit short for my taste.
Or is it just because I played already too much Forza Horizon titles.
It took already more time for me to finish as real playtime would be as some achievements for climbing the progress ladder had really bad translation errors - the S2 one to get the Brabham for example only shows “Batteriegetrieben” in the Description - not that you have 2 minutes in a S2 to finish two speed traps with one star each minimum…
First thing I did was mute the in game voice as the narration was crap.

All of my races now are having me start in 12th place and the drivatars seem to be set to unbeatable? Are the races in Highly Skilled in HW supposed to put you at the back of the starting grid?? I am finding it extremely difficult to win the weekly championship and the races are WAY TOO LONG to keep restarting them to try and win!
That seems to be the case once you hit S2 class. I think the drivatars are still Highly Skilled, but some of them become absolute rockets, and unless you can get through most of the opposition early in the race (which is more-by-luck-than-judgement), you can find yourself in second with little chance of improving on that.
One thing which did help was switching off the Hot Wheels assist, which seems to do far more harm than good such as making cars wobble from side to side round loops.
I created a 15-lap race round the Nexus circuit to give myself plenty of time to win the event. Instead, I ended up lapping the drivatars twice up to 4th place. I tried the same with a different circuit where it took me about half the race to get to first place, and I only started lapping the drivatars on the 13th lap.
But even with that assist off, races can be frustrating when limited to three laps, or sprint races. For the seasonal championship, I opted for the Deora, which proved to be a decent choice.

VERTIGO, NAUSEA and visceral effects!?! 
ok, so i have ventured the Hotwheels Horizon island 3 or 4 times. each time i have had to take a hard gamer stop/ break necessary after only maybe 8 mins or so of exploring and racing up there. it takes me several minutes of stepping away before i can reorient and get back to mainland Mexico… am i getting virtual altitude sickness fx?! motion sickness in FHW different vibe mebbe?
i wonder if i should play through it and try to adjust or if i am physically not able to (i have neurological disability)… is this happening to anyone else? 
*it is totally amazing tho🖤
If you want help then state what your setup is. For example if XSX then are you using performance or quality mode. If PC then what are your blur settings set to. Are you driving in third person or cockpit?
yeah so, 3rd pers eagle n close up on xbox s series. hd tv south facing in basement espacement (my studeo) these gaming settings and environment havent’t changed tho; the only new factor is FH5:HW as the gameplay. and idk about other settings - am only on Default so far - but good tip to try adjusting these !! cheers
update 8/9/22 : completed HW and luv it!! i didn’t ever change from quality to performance setting buut i did clear the screen of the new n beloved periscope, the skillchain indicator and unpinned missions. this helped me a lot (for enjoying the scenery) as i recalled the sailing tip to avoid sea sickness gaze into the horizon line often… the turning off of the hw stunt assist is rly what helped my queezyiness - also just recalibrating my threshhold for it and appreciating how awesome and visceral it all is

Has anyone figured out what you have to do to unlock the HW Legend Rank and X class cars? I’ve completed the HW Goliath twice, once in an S1 class and again in an S2 class car. I’ve completed B and A class to 100%, S1 is at 87% (two more races to complete and it will be 100) and S2 to 84% (four more races and it will be 100). Do you have to complete all of the missions for the previous four classes or earn a certain number of medals (I’m at 2,619)?
Edit: Playing on PC. I’ve now completed Goliath a third time, all on Highly Skilled difficulty, and nothing. The first time I completed it was in S1 and I had not raced any of the S1 or S2 races. I then completed it in S2 thinking maybe it had to be done in that class since that’s where the event unlocked. Before the third time I completed at least one other S1 and S2 race, thinking maybe that had something to do with it. Nothing.
Up by your score on upper right, I think it tells you you need X medals? Something I forget. So do a few more accolades and that should do it. Think more like the drive clockwise thru forest, desert, ending in glacier.
Start in forest at about 5 o’clock at loop track. Set route to glacier from there. I got medals or whatever enough to complete.
Sorry I don’t recall correct terms. Hopefully you’ll get gist, and one of the others here can help better.
Good luck.
Did I miss an important note? I thought since it is Hot Wheels, why not drive my A800 Boneshaker a bit. It is now hard limited to 277kph, except after boosters. It drives normally on the main map with a top speed of a little over 300.
I fired up the Twin Mill 
Supra RZ is a ridiculous top speed car and looks very hot wheels with its kit too.
Why do players that are a high level already in the main game have to be treated like rookies and have their hands held through the hot wheels events its not like the actual events are that difficult

Ok, suggest a car/tune for the Goliath.
I am referring to the Hot Wheels expansion as that is what this thread is about, do keep up. 
You DO realise there’s a Hot Wheels Goliath?
And!
Still doesn’t answer why seasoned players in the main game have to be spoon fed like rookies in the hot wheels expansion, I also played hot wheels before the earlier edition, lets be honest the racing isn’t that different from the main game its just rinse and repeat on a orange track.
