King of the Track - March

T10 wrote:Think you've got what it takes to be hot-lapping royalty? Prove it in this Rivals Mode event starring the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Indianapolis Grand Prix. Take on the time set by NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya (GT: JaunPMontoya42). If you beat him, you'll be eligible to win a special gift car from T10

Once he runs a lap we can go race him. Looks like the GP circuit not the oval and Montoya has run this track in his F1 days. Unsure how well he will go in a stock Corvette in a video game...

I reckon probably only as well (if that) as the rest of us... What I think would be more interesting is if the winner had the chance to use one of Montoya's cars around a track IN REAL LIFE & then we got to compare that too (or even just vs him in a real stock corvette on that track)..... now THAT would be a fun competition!

Honestly I could see alot of fast Forza players actually being damn fast in a real race car, fitness notwithstanding (those drivers spend ALOT of time working on endurance etc, & its safe to say I haven't even driven past the gym for over a month haha!).

Well you know what they say, F1 drivers are some of the fittest people in the world.

While on the subject of king of the track . I recently beat rampages time on the last king of the track rival competition but never received any gift car atall

Does anyone know the deal with this ?

not sure on the rampage challenge but i got the prev one with the Mazda Furai

There are 2 separate rivals modes offering prize cars...

King of the Track (KotT): A single rivals games where you need to beat a celebrity (of some sort) to win a car or 2. This one is where you would normally get a car for running and a Unicorn for beating the time. This rival runs for the month.

Bounty Hunter: This one runs for around a week at a time and uses the existing Monthly Rival races rather than having its own. The Bounty is a member of the Forza Community. Once you beat them you should receive their Bounty prize car (like the Furai)

In both rival races the KotT or Bounty can run as often as they like, while their rival race is up, to better their time.

As for gifts... Be patient. The Bounty ones are normally pretty quick as there might only be a few hundred or thousand to gift. With the KotT they need to gift all who compete and then gift again the ones faster than the celebrity.

Right now Montoya is sitting at 2,646 with a dirty 1:32.574 (ABS, TCS and full auto).
He does have a month to better that time though...

Just so everyone doesn't have to go searching in game.

how do you race against him? i dont know how to make him a favourite so i can load his ghost???
