I would want proper endurance dirt ones.
Even courses that have a MAX 10% tarmac would be nice. Currently its 50/50 on tarmac and dirt, so its not really a dirt race.
That doesnât capture the real spirit of endurance road racing. Look back at Mille Miglia, Targa Florio and any other historic endurance racing. Theyâre all 100% tarmac. No dirt at all.
I just finished creating an endurance race. Really interested to know what youâll think. The blueprint is called âd-class 50 lap goliathâ. Enjoy all!
You ainât doing it right unless you have capped the pi at 100

I have to say that I am very happy that these unbearable 4 hours races did not appear in FH5. I hated them back in FM7 and The Crew. Especially as both titles I mentioned had the preference to crash during such marathon sessions. Had to do the FM7 race almost seven times because of that, as the game crashes back to desktop after finishing about 3/4 of the laps.
And the crew was even more worse, as for the achievement you had to do it with a crew, and if you were way to fast and up and away and leave your teammates to much behind, they get kicked out of the game. But as you had to win the race there were not much alternatives.
I once did a 50 round goliath at FH4 and I did a 50 round goliath (intelligently after the patch) in FH5. First one I did with the help of my cousin and in a A800 Renault Clio FE (how stupid one could be) - the second I did in X999 BMW X5M FE on my own with several hours sleep between some of the laps (mostly five laps and than pausing the game). Was nice for the skill points but not worth it for the xp or credits (as I said, after the patch - shows how stupid I am).
But I never would do it again. First one took about 9 hours, second one took about 24 hours with some sleep and walking on fresh air between. And no, I will never want to do that again. Even if they restored the experience points system to the old version. I get from the 50 laps goliath at FH5 almost the same amount of points as doing a lean 35 minutes 3 lap race at the same track. Somewhat of 170 000 points with the complete 200% XP bonus perk of the BMW X5M FE car.
Total waste of life time and energy. Someone told me they got 3 000 000 points before the patch for the same race (that would be whooping 100 level plus - not to mention the wheelspins. And even for that I wouldnât do it again. I am too old for this.
Wow you actually drove 50 laps of Goliath lol. Thatâs impressive!
Most impressive was the AI that always any round come close at the exact same points of the track. At FH4 you could take the lead that increased every lap. To be fair I lost that lead every time my cousin take the driverâs seat but hey, he doesnât knew the track or the game before so no complaints for that from my side.
In FH5 it was way more stressing, as the AI every lap at exact the same section (mountain section, second tunnel after the long bridge) came closer and tried to overtake me and that even on the standard difficulty. Sometimes the drivatar changes but they did every time every lap the same at the same point. Like the donkey on the right side of the road running around exact the same direction when you come across itâs meadow.
Btw why is the famous game called donkey kong as it is actually a monkey and not a donkey?
None of those arenât even long haul trucks.
Would be interesting to see Colorado, Silverado or F-350/450 pull two fully loaded long trailers hundreds of kilometers.
