(LEAVE A REPLY IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS CHAMPIONSHIP. WE NEED SOME SUPORT TO GET THIS STARTED.)
Alright, alright. Bring it in real quick. I know a good portion of us are excited for Horizon 4, but I at least wanted to set up a proper event to give Horizon 3 a fitting send-off. So, I’ve created this championship, open to all online players of Forza Horizon 3. Oh, silly me. I should probably introduce myself. Call me Velocity. I’ve been around this game for a while, a racer capable of keeping up with professionals, and I’m looking to get noticed by the big names in the Forza community. What is the championship I have created, you ask? Well, I present to you the TVM Elite Gauntlet.
The TVM (Terminal Velocity Motorsport) Elite Gauntlet is a championship-style series of races where you must take on Fifteen ranked drivers on their home track in an effort to beat them to the line and earn their ranked spot. Waiting for the player to take the top spot first is the TVM Elite Crown and a cash prize of currently undecided value, but I do know it will be at least $50.
Rules
- Every challenger will start unranked and will have to go through the ranks in sequential order. IE: You can’t challenge the Rank 14 racer without beating the Rank 15 racer first.
- To take a Ranked Driver’s position, you must first beat them in a head-to-head race on a preselected track.
- You can go it alone, or if you’re an FH3 streamer, bring your stream team for a better chance at taking the win. IE: If a stream team races and only one guy beats the Ranked Driver to the line, everyone on the team advances,
- I value diversity in any competition. So use of Leaderboard Cars (Unless stated otherwise) by any challenger will forfeit their eligibility for the cash prize.
