Finished second and didn't get any manager XP. What's wrong?

If only the podium receives the reward, then the reward should please be increased.

Bad decision. It should be out of fuel=no reward.

The highest number of players I have ever seen is 8 and the largest part of quick races has 2 or 3 players. This means that farming resources will continue. 50% of times they will be rewarded but it will continue.

Furthermore you should lock quick races for 24 hours for those who run out of fuel twice during the last 24 hours. (Once can happen to anyone)

I support this.

I just thought it was the time I was racing that’s why that was happening. Now I’m seeing that this is happening almost every fast races 🤦🏿‍♂️. What’s the reason of joining fast races if you don’t want to finish the race

That's the other problem, you think you're racing a guy and it's all down to the last thrilling lap of this 10 minute race only to realise the other guy isn't even using his boost, he's put his phone down and just collecting rewards. Really winds me up! Now at least in races with more than three cars you should have genuine racers racing! 😎

Can't believe that despite the warnings people are still doing it! 🙄

Possibly automated scripts that have not been turned off or the people doing it don't read the forum.

Seriously I get the angst over those farming for DP and barely making the end of lap 1, but if someone sets up and loads enough fuel to finish the race I don’t see what can be done about it.

IMO managers enter quick for 3 reasons:

1. The majority Farm XP (Jack has put in measures to prevent anyone from setting up for only log ap 1 or not enough fuel to finish).

2. A considerable number use the races for fuel & PL calculations at different tracks in various temperatures including those in online leagues, but mainly those in offline leagues

3. The minority want to race for 10 minutes. Personally I think they are pointless , but respect that others find them exciting.

So how about setting up a new feature called ‘Track Testing’. This would enable those who want to test fuel usage, PL’s at different temperature etc to do this outside of QR environment. These wouldn’t be races (you would be on the track in your own) and no rewards including XP would be paid.

This would leave Quick races for those that actually want to race. Change the entry level to a minimum amount of participants (say 5) then if anyone tries to farm it would then be pointless.

Finally if races struggle to fill then no one should complain since it would just show not many actually want to do Quick Races (at least at the time the race was scheduled).

I support this idea
