    The Big Swing - I want it!!

    So if I remember correctly, the general consensus was that the Rodeo event was a little unforgiving with how much it wanted us to grind. Personally I didn't make it to the end - I didn't get The Big Swing. Which is a big deal for me as its the only track I'm missing (apart from this week's Halloween track and Traction Testground which I'm ~80% saved up for).

    I can't remember how it went for previous events. Will the track eventually show up on the loot wheel? Slots? Will I have to buy it with gems?

    On an unrelated note: How do I get my new avatar to show up in game? It shows up here, and in the Uplay section of the game, but my avatar on the leaderboard is still the old one.

    Not sure when the newer tracks will be released, but most likely they will appear on the loot wheel eventually. As for your avatar, just clear your cache and it should update.

    You will most probably have to wait until next year to be able to get them on the loot wheel.

    He apologized for teasing later. He kinda surprised me too.. but the tracks should arrive eventually. They might be talking over alternatives to putting them on the Loot Wheel 4-6 months after the event... like maybe putting them out there in the chip/daily shops, etc. Just speculating there... but they all should arrive eventually.

    I know its not always fun but.... best to grind the events and get them for sure whenever its possible.

    It took mine a couple of days to show up. Once I saw it arrive in-game, I made some minor adjustments to it.. and that took a couple of days too.

    I should hope he did apologise. Implying that event tracks are forever locked away is a bit harsh. One way or another they should be available to everyone, even if it means waiting a few months for them to appear.

    Every event before, and this event after, I've been there for the grind and have completed it. I just couldn't finish the Rodeo event. The numbers were too much. I'm missing 12 Stallion pieces too which I've not seen pop up elsewhere yet.

    My in game avatar has updated now, and yeah it took a couple of days.

    Haha really? I didn't actually notice! 10/10 for observation there. I still thought he was serious.

    Nope, for game avatar to show in minutes, you should clean your game cache and it will show on the next run, at least it did for me... no waiting line to get my new in game avatar.

    As for the track itself, I'm with you all - IT SHOULD APPEAR SOMEWHERE, SOONER THEN LATER IS BETTTER! If not, wth... penalize the users for what? For having some good IRL?
