According to Josef in the livestream "If you're able to beat my time throughout the challenge then you're going to get rewarded a custom livery that I got to create with Forza. And even you're not able to beat the time and you still participated, you will get a race suit which is pretty rare in the game. Each challenge will have a new race suit that is rare to the game that you can acquire just by participating."

To 'beat his time' make sure you set a clean lap so you are ranked above him on the leaderboard when the event closes. You don't need to follow Josef's gamertag but doing so will make it easy to see his time in the Friends sorted leaderboard: JNRACERTPX2
