Obviously the achievement will come much quicker if you beat the actual rival and set a top time, but it's not necessary.
Thanks but I don't really understand this advice. - Using 360 and I don't think I've seen any option to run "HOT LAPS" in Rivals Mode.
To get to RIVALS I click on SOCIAL from the Map Screen
Drop down one block to the box for Rivals
Click on Amateur, PRO or Championship box
Click on a location
Click on an event
Click on one of 10 divisions from Classic to Supercar
and select a Rival to race in ghost mode
That's the only option I can see for a Rivals event other that racing a Rival after completing an event race.
My problem remains the same - I am now at 240 races and 330K in CR. at that pace I would have to race another 480 Rivals races at those CR numbers BUT I've raced all the offerings over 1000 CR
Even if I could find anther 670 RIVALS races worth 1000 CR each I would have to win all 670 to reach a Million. That would mean beating a lot of top 50 times and at my age getting into the top 1% is a significant accomplishment. Us 70 year old folks can't really compete vs the Top 50 FH2 racers. We don't have the reflexes or the eyesight.
This Achievement seems to be almost impossible since most of the RIVALS races I am offered are 100 to 500 CR
I did find another 5000 CR event at the Festival Circuit for Street to go with Sports Cars but that's only 2 5000 CR events I can locate.
I do have a few 1000 and 2000 CR events so I will continue to try. It just seems odd to me that this is made so difficult
Anyone can rack up 20,000 to 30,000 CR without doing anything in a Playground Game but if you race your butt off to beat a Top 1% time in RIVALS you typically get 1000 CR or less.
So I would love to know how to do these HOT LAPS for CR in RIVALS if it means I can make more CR than 100 to 500 - If I have to average 500 CR to make 1 MILLION with 670,000 needed now it will require my winning vs 1300 Rivals and posting winning laps in 1300 races will take a miracle I think.
I'm pretty certain the 5 Stunts I have not yet completed are beyond my ability - like 30,000 skill points in a Lexus or getting the TVR to 163mph. I haven't come close to those yet.
But I would be willing to do the races required for 1 million CR in Rivals if it were possible.
