    @Ubi: I would pay $1 a pop to get tracks I missed from old events.

    I realized with the Halloween event that I've been playing this game for more than a year. I still love playing, and I still enjoy the challenge of moving up the leaderboards.

    Over the year, I've missed a couple events (the Data Cubes and Bucking Bronco events come to mind) and I wish there was now a way to get the tracks I missed.

    I haven't seen them on the slot machine or loot wheel. Any way to acquire these old tracks would be welcome.

    Thanks!

    Data cubes wasn't an event, they're just hidden collectibles in standard tracks. You should still be able to get the costume and track at any time.

    boringinternet is right.....You can collect the Data Cubes any time you want as they're just hidden around the Frontier and if I remember right, there's 2 tracks and the Eggman Outfit to unlock from collecting all of them !!

    You can use the following link (Below) to help you with finding the Data Cubes but as for the other event tracks you'll just have to wait until RedLynx adds them to the Loot Wheels and/or Slot Machine some time in the future, as they won't be out for a good few months yet, simply because the events haven't long finished so it wouldn't be fair to all those players that took part in the events to earn and win the tracks and items from them if they were released for free straight after the event !!

    Rest assured though, all other previous event tracks have eventually been released for the rest of the community, so you will get them at some point ok mate !?

    Other than the data cubes thing, I agree with whitechapple. I really wish there was an alternative way to get the tracks I've missed.

    I would hate to set the precedence that that each track costs $1.... thats potentially hundreds of dollars for the game folks! And doesnt help players who arent willing to pay, ever.

    But I do agree that it would be very nice to have the option to get event tracks after the event...by paying with in-game currency (which allows people the option to work in-game for them, or pay up for gems, etc)....perhaps in the "daily" store tab, or in the Chip Shop..... but I would hope the tracks eventually readily available on the Loot Wheel, etc like it does now. In other words... you can "pay" dearly now in gems/chips, etc... or you "pay" with time to get it on the Loot Wheel.

    Tbh, I wouldn't worry too much about it if i were you. They will release it, its obvious for the main reason that it gives an unfair advantage on the leaderboard for those who missed it. The only drawback is that you'll probably have to wait some months after the event and/or maybe pay with gems.

    I mean its not like you missed a paintjob cause its aesthetic only (even if i give too damn much importance to these ), they just cant "never" release tracks after an event, it's part of the ranking. Patience is key i guess.

    Thanks for the responses! I have tried to go back (as of last patch) and find the Data Cubes I missed. I know I was missing the Cube from the Refinery (I was having problems activating the switch the first go-around), but as of last patch there is no longer a Cube in the secret room on that level.

    I agree that the currency to purchase these lost tracks should be Gems, not money. Gems, coins, pink donuts - hell I'll even pay with a stack of Golden Tickets and Chips to get them.

    If I have to wait a couple months to start getting them on the slot machine - I'm fine with that... Although I am an impatient person!

    Best thing to do when playing for the Data Cubes is to write down exactly which ones you've collected as there's no way of telling which ones or how many you've collected in-game (apart from meeting the guy in the Saloon at various stages) chances are that if the cube isn't there then you might have already collected it, although bugs have been known in this game (haha) personally just to make sure, I'd play through the guide, which I post the link to in my last post, and try to find them all again whilst keeping note !!

    If you're still missing one after that, then you can try clearing your Cache and/or uninstalling reinstalling the game to see if this fixes it for you, ok mate !?


    !! Hope this Helps.....Good Luck Collecting.....Enjoy !!

    I was a huge player and spent a reasonable amount of money on the game, and when I quit playing I had every track with platinum and top50 or so time for android. I will NEVER return the to the game without the option to catch up on content quickly that is old to everyone else and no longer attainable through an active event. Even the thought of having no chance to catch up on the leaderboard because of missing tracks keeps me from logging back on to the game.
