Awesome, I’ve been trying to find the Hoonigan RS200!!
FOR TRIAL TRY PAGANI ZONDA CINQUE ROADSTER with “TATO 790709” TUNE! DO NOT FORGET TO USE BRAKES.
AND GOOD LUCK TO HAVE SOLID TEAM 
Wise words, but maybe they don’t sound convincing enough, let me try another way:
BRAKES MAKE YOU FASTER

OMG Stop quitting after a minute into the first trial race people!!!

I’m not thinking about the Trial as a Hypercar street race in the rain against impossible AI and 12 year old teammates chewing on their microphone. I’m thinking about it as… an exercise in equanimity and acceptance.
It’s OK.
I don’t need to unlock every car in the game. I don’t need to beat myself up over a digital representation of car that I didn’t even know existed IRL until 4 weeks ago, that might just show up in the Forzathon shop 6 months from now, and I’ll probably never use in-game anyway.
I probably won’t get it. I don’t need it. And I can be at peace with that.
It’s a relief in a way. I have other things that I’ve been putting off for a while now that I can get back to. Like saving Hyrule, de-rusting my Smash Bros skills, or trying to get my Sims to woohoo.

I humbly disagree. It took me 2 tries to get this done. Not enough people quit the first time around. Second try, half the team quit and that made the difference. I carried easy wins on the last 2 races and I had some decent teammates. For the trials, I actually PREFER others quit, in this case, less is more. I remember a long while back, all of my team quit during the first S2 dirt race of the trial and I skated to an easy victory. Anything S2 these days I use my P1

Find a good tune, slow down and use the breaks on sharp turns, don’t give up, no ramming your teammates off the road, and use the breaks!! That’s all I got.
It’s amazing how many times I saw cars slipping and sliding on the first few turns of the first race, and than see them quit. Come on…tune those cars and slow down!
That is the dirty little secret of Trials!
How my Trial went this week:
I think there was a server hiccup in my first trial as I ended up in it with the Mosler 999 I had used to clear the Speed Trap Seasonal.
I have read about people showing up in “illegal” cars and assumed hacking but I can confirm it might be a server glitch!
2nd try we lost 1st race, won 2nd and lost 3rd BUT we still won (I think it somehow counts different if one of your team leaves during the race or the game gets confused).
The tally of points was different in the result page compared to the race display.
In any case I got the Apollo.
Hi guys.
It seems that the day challenge called “Harrier” were we need to win one Cross Country event, seems like its broken. I’ve done 4 Cross country races 2 circuit and two sprint and it not recognising that i’ve won any of them. Anyone else having this issue?
I did not have any issues with the Daily Challenge. While completing the Weekly Forzathon events, using MINI cars, I just used the X-Raid Mini to do the event and completed it first attempt.
Try hard-resetting your console, pull the plug and start it all up again.

This week trial event is a disaster and it isn’t first time whey (PG) did something like this.
This week’s trial:
How long is going to be before this harrier challenge is fixed
Try restarting your console properly if you are having issues
Is there anybody else not being able to get it done
No issues here … Make sure it is the right kind of race … Cross country event…not a circuit

Let this be a teaching opportunity given how much people are struggling with the Trial this week.
First race:
1:08 give the guy some space, there was a very real possibility of you ramming him into a tree
1:14 his fault, not yours
1:33 I’d have just gently tapped the brakes, let him pass, drafted behind him for as long as it lasts, mathematically certain he’d crash at some point shortly after, there is exactly zero point in fighting back
1:40 same thing, I’d have let the guy go, not even touching him
1:53 traffic car, i.e.: there’s an obstacle on the road, flicker the brakes to reduce braking space, and stay deep on the inside of the corner
2:03 yes, there is a traffic car on your left, that is no excuse to remain so deep into the outside lane after you’ve overtaken it
2:05 O braking where art thou?
2:38 “…”
at that point so many players in your situation have given up entirely on the race and come dead last. But by not giving up, you keep overtaking Drivatars - for they too make mistakes even on Unbeatable - and keep putting points on the board for your team and removing them from the Drivatars, something fundamental that could conceivably help your team win, a rare feat
Second race:
3:22 nope, better to be sandwiched between the Bugatti and the Koenigsegg
3:29 dear newbies that lurk this forum, pay very close attention here: Quadro senses his car is going too far on the outside, decelerates, avoids hitting the wall on the right, and carves for himself a space between the mess of cars in front of him, this is excellent decision making in quite a short time
3:34 I’m not going to blame you because the Koenigsegg wasn’t relenting and closed the door, it’s not your fault, but even so, Unbeatable Drivatar or not I’m not driving through a wall
3:50 if you can’t overtake the guy on the outside while leaving enough space, tap the brakes, draft and do it later, once again I simply do not fight, it’s just not worth it
3:58 just no
4:25 at this point you’ve touched his car so many times he probably hates you, now you overtake him on the outside or don’t, no reason to get yourself into a bizarre driving line
once again we see that despite the comedy of errors by all human and AI drivers alike, you put points on the board, and in this case your team manages to win. Thus avoids losing the championship and the Apollo. The Drivatars can keep their 1st and 2nd place all they want, humans don’t even have to beat the fastest two at the finish line in order to win the race. Seizing the middle of the pack gives you enough points.
And why is that? It’s because if you don’t give up and avoid just coming dead last, you don’t give 100 points to each Drivatar, and you earn more than 0 points. Funny that. Kids should try that sometimes…
There is no such thing as an excess of determination, consistency and safety. But if you convince yourself that there is no hope, your belief will help creating the fact.

+1 peoples should make these kinda teaching more, i hope i would be better in video editing so i would make videos showing what are good things to do in trial and what are not. But most important thing should be that dont intenantionaly ram your own team mates, if your team mates is going to pass you make her overtaking more easy because everybody in team benefits if good drivers can score more points.
that’s very much what it’s intended to be, yes! Thanks for going into details on this!
Oh, I absolutely hated myself for this - as you said, just no.
I felt really sorry to the guy but he kept breaking in odd places and I kept hitting his back. So yeah, I don’t think he likes me very much after that race.
Your video, Quadro, and analysis, BabySeal, were very informative to watch. Thanks!
I think folks that quit races early don’t realize that they need to learn the tracks before they can be competitive. Instead of quitting, stick it out…learn the track. Every time you race it you will be better. Practice, practice, practice! Also, I rarely add power to my S2 cars, they are just too much for me to handle. For any racing I am typically around PI 925.
