Please give us something for drag racing!

I’m sure it’s been said 1000x before but please give us just a lil bit of love for those of us who like to drag race! The experimental drag in FH7 is fun can we have that with some kind of league or tournaments?? I’ll I’m asking for is a small corner of the game where we have the ability to tune and race drag cars against other players! Of course some unique upgrades for drag racing would be welcome as well!

I agree and I don’t even even really drag race, but drag racing as a whole has been pretty much ignored since launch. I thought I heard some noise about more drag related tuning options and whatnot but haven’t seen anything since; hell even Fortune Island didn’t have a a new drag strip (or houses for that matter).

You guys must have missed the PvP Hotwheel Rip Rod event that was a drag race PvP championship series to win the Rip Rod. Only 1 person per event could win and if you didn’t have a proper tune, have traction control off, stability control off, and used manual transmission, then you weren’t going to win. I really enjoyed that event, but it created a huge uproar about locking things behind multiplayer PvP… so good luck getting another one of those events in the future.

You also had to be in the right lanes to win as well.

Drag racing needs to have the option for RWD and AWD restrictions.

Fellas, I agree with everything and have been as vocal as I have time and energy to be about drag racing getting love. Heck, I’ve had many threads about it since FM4.

I’m still actively trying to get a response on the Experimental Drag FEEDBACK WANTED thread on the forums that THEY started. Nothing. No news.

I’m still astounded that, although they did put in some drag strips and some static working lights, every track is bad. The best 1/4 mile drops you into trees and then a field! Really?!

I give them credit on some of these V8s that have been popping up in some of the newer cars, the 7.0, the 7.2 racing and so on. These, along with the wheel and tire package from the FE Nova, should be available for every muscle, drag type car. This is the fourth game. We should have specific upgrade paths, race drift drag off-road etc, all with specific parts inside and out.

Sorry to start wishlisting. Just totally agree. Tired of seeing my favorite series go where it’s going.

Agreed. I was excited to see actual drag strips in FH4, only to discover that whoever designed them has never been to an actual drag strip and also just can’t figure out on their own that a car needs some room to stop. In FH3 people used to sit at the airport and drag race all day long… I hated it because it was just a top speed run, but people got together at least. I rarely see them at these FH4 drag strips because it’s so annoying to fly off into the trees at the end and then try to make your way back to the road again. They would have been a huge hang out spot otherwise.

IIRC, the devs actually said something about adding drag suspension to go along with the drag slicks. It was in one of the earlier livestreams, but sadly I can’t remember which one it was.

Glad you said this cause I wasn’t if I had imagined it or not. Really hope this comes to light.

Hahaha. Yeah me too. It would be so cool if we could have suspension like the Nova FE on other cars.

I heard rumbling about that around the time the Experimental Drag was released in FM7. Horizon came out and we got what we got. SMH.

At this point I’d be happy if they would fix the DRAG tree lights. Immediately after Update 6 they became out of synch. I submitted a support ticket and was told that the rep reported it and that he made it a prioritized report…that was a few weeks ago…

I miss so much a car meet on the airfield in Forza Horizon 3 and neverending drag races with other people.

What we have now? DRIFT!

PLEASE

Anyway I have an idea for the title of the next game:
