The Caddy Limo market is about to tank.

Good. Crash all the cartels, it’s gone on long enough.

The cartels??? Have the limos really been that sought after? I have one and never even used it. Probably wont either unless its mandatory for a challenge of some kind

To obtain the new vehicle, the Rip Rod, you have to place 1st in a PvP Drag Championship. 4 races, one at each of the drag strips (except the winter ice one). Only the player who places first in the championship will get the Rip Rod. I think this could be an extremely frustrating week…

If by frustrating you mean great fun then I totally agree! This is sheer genius! I’m loving the challenge already and I’ve not placed better than 6th yet and NO I am NOT being sarcatic here, I genuinely am loving it!

Only if they have fixed the issue with the 60 weekly challenge bonus points not being received but they just didn’t include it in the patch notes.

Good selection in the shop - it’s been a while. Glad a could finally drive that bloody limo.

inb4 rip rod complaints

on the bright side, people have a place to run their c-class mercs now .

It’s great way to finnish championship at tie in 1st place and get 2nd place for that reason.

Seriously. When are they going to fix this? It can’t be that hard of a fix.

This happened to me, too. And unfortunately it seems 2nd and 3rd place is the best i am able to achieve. This is frustrating.

You sir/maam have just opened my eyes to something. I’ve never done co-op or PVP seasonal stuff because I always assumed the prizes were the same. Now i’ll actually keep a closer eye on that now. Thank you

Yeah, PVP drag races. That’s… fun. /facepalm

Even more fun… Third place! Because that’s literally all I’m getting with every car and tune I try. FML.

Took the EVO X for a spin but nothing unlocks, am i missing something?

I completed all of mine before I came to work this morning. The Volvo challenge wasnt working for me on the last season. It was suggested to switch the video from performance to quality or vice versa and that should fix it. It did work for me it might work for you.

On another note, I cant remember which thread but someone pointed out the island seasonal looked to be repeats AGAIN this week, damn that was a great observation. Someone is paying more attention than I am

I was out on the road, paused, Cars, chose the Evo X for delivery, and the first challenge requirement popped as soon as I started accelerating.

Try doing that with a different car, then again with the Evo X. Also try rebooting to see if that cleans up a sync.

In previous events some players have noticed that the units setting needed to be in Imperial instead of Metric to work; I don’t know if that’s at all related but you could test that in this instance if it applies to you.

Reboot did the job, thanks

What a disappointment with the once again repeated championships on Fortune Island. What are they thinking?
