    Didn't think about that Hm, also you can't change camera as I understand while you see menu or can you? You can change camera just before finish so we see the car.
    Also I don't know if there is a need to cheat in such competition (no real prizes).


    Also i updated first post about the rule (thanks zopht for pointing it):
    * You must complete challenge with specified spec and vehicle (it must be seen in screenshot).

    No, you can't. Its a pity the summary screen doesn't contain the relevant info.

    Nice initiative, only few problems with it, imo.

    1. Half the time making a crew doens't work and obviously in crew you can get way better times due to slipstream (Solo is more fair imo)

    2. For this week's challenge, you have chosen a DLC car. Unless you buy the Touareg or the Raid DLC Pack or Season Pass, you can not participate.

    3. You should make clear if you can shortcut or not (otherwise you gonna get the CRC - Clean Racing Club - boys whining about shortcutting, wallriding,.... same happened in TCS Challenge)

    Anyway : Touareg Challenge : 5:43,660

    In the rules it says that you can do it if you want to. Yes if we post videos we can prove if we cut or don't cut but those who post only screenshots don't show if they did cut or didn't.

    1. Now this is just more for fun so if people want to play it in crew, I do not forbid. Also till now every score was taken solo.
    2. Hm, next time then won't select a DLC vehicle.
    3. In rules it's clear about that. In future we can decide if all of you can provide videos, we can disable shortcuting. But I am of course gonna check only 1-4 places for shortcuting, not more because don't have so much time. Now even if I forbid shortcuts, I can't see that from screenshot. If we only had more checkpoints... wouldn't be a problem.
