How to unlock the Garage Royalty achievement in Forza Motorsport - Definitive Guide

EDIT: Unfortunately the following method was patched with Update 2 on November 14, 2023 - see the last comments for potential workarounds

--------

You can fully level one car within 3.0-3.5 hours depending on the car/lap times without touching anything or staying next to your console:

Necessary:

- You must plug in your controller
- You must disable „Show me things“. Dashboard > Settings > Preferences > Idle > Uncheck „Show me things“
- In Forza Settings > Driving Assists > Maximum Assists + Throttle: Assisted
[Optional: Advanced Controller > Vibration Scale from 100 to 0]

Game Setup:

- Rivals mode
- Select the class of the car you want to level
- Le Mans Circuit de la Sarthe
- Select track variation Old Mulsanne Circuit
- Start Race

As soon as the car drives itself you must press cn_down and then cn_right so you are in the Friction menu. This is essential, so the game won’t stop after 10 minutes.

- - - - -

You gain roughly one level in one lap. If you want to squeeze out a few minutes then auto-upgrade your car once in a while so you get faster lap times. I selected this track because it’s technical and gives a large amount of segment bonuses.

I'd definitely recommend upgrading your car every 10 levels as the scores you'll get are much better reduces the grind time. Holding the accelerator down also improves your scores. Better scores = quicker levelling.

Faster cars level up quicker? That would mean it's worth buying the fastest race cars in P and R class. Is this the case?

Faster cars are a little faster to level. Most R and P Class cars finish in under 3 hours on the Indy Oval.

Is there any particular reason for the track choice? I figured with the long straight you would be losing time getting XP. Have you tried other tracks that are shorter and turns/sectors more often? Just curious.

I just ran the 13 Dodge Viper on Le Mans. 3 hours 5 minutes. S class, stock, no upgrades.

Level 25 was reached at 22 rounds with 4 minutes 9 seconds and 1.5 hours.

In the end I don’t think it matters but someone can try this car at an oval.

Works very well in background (Homeoffice) - THX
Will try SPA tomorow, where you have more turns and so maybe more sektor bonuses?

Edit: 1 hour Spa - P Class Toyota -> 18 Levels (0-18)
-> theoretical Level 54 after 3 hours - but i don't think it makes much difference

Edit2: 1 hour small oval (eaglerock) - P Class Toyota -> 16 Levels (18-34)

Tried different track (oval, more turns) etc. Seems all similar, in average it take 3-4h for different class of car to level up from 1 to 50.

Already unlocked 10 cars with level 50. Still 20 to go.

Likely doesn't work on Cloud gaming with Game Pass PC because the cloud times out after 15 minutes of not touching the controller. I will test this theory and find out. Could be why the downvotes, this solution doesn't work for all players.

Works for me thanks for the guide. Not sure why you are being disliked.
I can't help but think that this car leveling up thing isn't what the developers intended. It's a pretty busted system. IMO max rank should be achieved in 30 minutes of racing. Maybe an hour max. It's too much of a grind to level cars up and I'm sure many people will just not upgrade or only pick one car per class.

The problem is the downvoters are ratio hoarders who don't want this guide to exist and help people out. They HATE that! They need their precious imaginary number to be as high as possible for them and them only.

As soon as I finish downloading this you'll definitely be getting my upvote and I'm sharing this method with as many people as I can. Let's tank that ratio lads!

Imagine if players read this guide and think, "wow that is a neat trick", then proceed to downvote it.. Incredibly stupid of anyone to do so. This is a great guide!

I thought about making a guide with all the numbers, but it really boils down to the numbers shown here if you afk, or if you drive yourself the entire time each car is maxed out in roughly 2.5hrs, so yeah at least 75hrs of track time to max 30 cars..

I hope they double the CXP earned in track segments (the hidden value that moves the cxp bar) pretty soon, and also add a "Perfect Segment +100CXP" when you get 10.0, as that builds on the whole "connect with your car and level up"-thing. Leveling cars is way too slow the way it is now..

By BamsenevE on 10 Oct 2023 23:19
So what's the best way to actually do it? I've seen a mix of Le Mans and oval get mentioned for the track to use (tried oval and didn't get any +25CXP notifications), and I know higher car class is faster, but how long would it take roughly to get a slower car (maybe D-B class) to level 50?

By FireWheels58 on 11 Oct 2023 01:55
With slow cars you need 3.5-3.75 hours, in very fast cars you see sub 3.0 hours.

On the other hand you need to optimize: You need to drive slower cars for the carreer, so a series and gain XP here until it’s finished and then use the trick above to finish them.

Miami is not the best way. My class X Porsche comparison:

- 1 Level on Miami: 3:55,xx = 9 laps
- 1 Level on Le Mans: 3:45,xx minutes = 1 lap + first segment of second lap

Miami gives like 6-7 segement score while Le Mans is more like 8s

Many of the GT cars on Le Mans have trouble exiting the esses while autodrive is enabled. They'll always go off track, and sometimes they'll hit the guardrail and spin out. Homestead is a more reliable option.

Yes plug in means you take a cable and connect it to your Xbox. Wireless does not work since it auto-disconnects after a while.

I'll will give Le Mans a try.
Still so far I used Susuka short -> has got 9 Turns. Give a decent amount of cxp.
X-Class needs around 50 sec., S-Class around 55 sec, ...
From LVL 0 to 50 it takes around 225 rounds.

BigDirtyFart : Actually, I am using the Xbox X and the controller is wired and connected to the front of the console. The 'Show me things' feature is already disabled, so I don't think that's necessary. I have enabled the Friction menu for about 30 minutes, but it keeps cutting me off after around 10-15 minutes (I haven't timed it, but I noticed it stopped while I was watching TV/movies).

You can also do this with a wireless controller - just make sure the right analog stick is at an angle and it won't time out.

Seems like the message not appearing while the telemetry is visible was partially fixed without a game update. The game now pauses after about 51 minutes of no input.

I'm still testing a few things, but for now it still works if you have a turbo controller or check on it once in a while.

For anyone getting the "Are you still playing?" message with telemetry on-screen, keep the B button held (or whatever upshifting is mapped to). This should prevent the message from appearing.

Okay, after doing some research, I stumbled upon this YouTube video (watch?v=DOuEl5cFB4). I was experiencing problems with my current cable, but replaced it with my phone's cable and now everything is working fine. It's important to note that a standard USB cable may not be sufficient; it's better to invest in a Data Transfer cable.

I got this by leaving the game on overnight and during the day. Basically 24/7 for the last few days. Full assists, Rivals, Nurburgring GP circuit, Turbo controller holding B. This was helpful, as I could see what level my car was instead of the telemetry menu. I would just glace over at the screen every once in a while and change cars when they hit 50. Take about 3 hours or slightly more of continuous driving to hit level 50 in any car on any track, so that doesn't make a significant difference. I kept vibration on and just left the controller wired on a pillow. No changes to my Xbox settings were needed.

It helps that this gives a ton of money too. Driver level 605, 21m credits since launch. Guess I'm set?

When I tried to do this with the Koenigsegg Jesko, it kept ending up straight in a wall. At least 3 times during the "race", I had to get it out of the wall and re-start it along its way. After 50 laps it still wasn't level 50 because of all the times it went off track. Watching that car do a lap is quite entertaining, even when it doesn't get itself stuck.

Well, APEX N3RD wrote:

So he already tried to pop that achievement with the help of another one and had no success.
It is the last achievement for my wife and she didn’t got it with 30 cars on level 50.
Trigger it by unlocking an achievement in another game doesn‘t work either.
So the question is, if everyone who have the same issue should level more cars, until it pops or is it better to delete the savegame and start from scratch, if this is even possible and progress is not stored online..

How to turn off controller vibration:

From the game pause and go to Settings, then RB all the way over to Advanced Controller. Scroll down to Vibration Scale and turn it to zero, or whatever you prefer.

The achievement pops the moment you reach level 50 while driving. I just got it.

Edit: Good news everybody, according to the TA tracker, APEX N3RD unlocked the achievement today. So I guess it was a late/silent pop in the background and it is not bugged!

If it takes 3 hours to get a car to level 50, that is 90 hours for 30 cars. With a completion time of 100-120 hours, most people are getting the other 56 achievements in 10-30 hours.

By HolyHalfDead on 16 Oct 2023 09:29
That calculation doesn't factor in that you'll end up with a lot of cars in the lvl 20-25 range after doing the 4 tours. But yeah, this achievement makes up a pretty big chunk of the completion time for sure.

By Neo Yggdrasill on 16 Oct 2023 15:43
My tips would be;

Do some of this while trying for Online achievements just so you are knocking out as many achievements as possible & lvl ups.

Then do all the cars you driven for the 4 tours 1st as they will be the quickest to complete as they will all be in the range of lvl 15-25.
Then use all the credits you got to buy P/X class cars to do the lvl 1-50 quicker & also do them over night if you're able to. I'm currently at 19 cars at lvl 50. Hoping to be done all of this early tomorrow morning or in the evening.

Hi, I’m the wife. I got the achievement now. I needed one more car to rank up. I’m assuming it’s some kind of Rhyse dilemma. The game simply swallows some cars & doesn’t recognize them. My Viper had a white bar but the lvl kept saying 49. No amount of EXP changed that & when I got to my cars, it was suddenly 50. So try lvl up more cars. Apex said, he had to do 2 more cars, then it eventually popped for him.

A new update came out to not really fix it. They didn't fix how long it takes up get to level 50, but apparently you can now only need to get to level 25 to get the last upgrade. While it doesn't make the achievement easier, you can at least more easily get a car to P/X class.

Both pre- and post-patch, Le Mans isn't a good track because of autodrive not handling the esses exit well.

I've had a car autodriving for the past hour without needing dismiss the popup. Last Friday it was timing out after the first 50 minutes, and since then it's been fine. I don't know if the tab makes a difference, but I've been staying on General.

OP's method works fine but the PC Cloud on Game Pass times out after 11.5 minutes and exits but still saves all your progress.
CLOUD users: Like someone else suggested, it's a good idea to do an 11 minute timed race, 0 drivatars, and check in every 11 minutes to collect race money and start the event over. We can't boost overnight or for anything longer than 11 minutes and 30 seconds.

So since my above comment a few days ago, I manage to only get this working on lower class cars (C and B so far). R, P, and X class is impossible to do afk for me. Also the time out screen seems to be glitched as sometimes I time out while in the “friction” screen but other times it never times out on that same screen. So either that last update did change some things or it added some new glitches to this method.

Method works fine for me on the Series X, boosted 10 different cars within the last two days without issues.

Btw, I think upgrading midway through is not worth it if you're focusing on fast cars (S+, maybe A+ even), you won't save that much time to justify all the menuing. Even if it does end up saving a little bit of time I'd argue that in comparison to the 60h or so that you'll be using this method it's so negligible that your time is better spent just not worrying about the game at all while it's doing its thing. Personally, once a couple of laps are over I look at the best time and calculate when it's going to reach level 50.

So the track I have NO ISSUES with is Road America, the short version is simpler and will rarely even get your car on the grass, the longer one can throw some faster cars on to the grass as well as RARELY go against the wall if your braking/handling is too crappy. full version has more spots for progress but short will usually take around a minute +/-
I hope this was helpful to someone!

The method mentioned above definitely works 100% with no issues ,currently using it on the test drive option on the old mulsanne track on the series S console even after the 2nd game patch ,you can press down while in the friction menu at any time to check your level progress ,if its been around 15 mins when you check it the time out screen will appear but just press resume then go back into the friction menu ,this has never timed out once while in the friction menu even after checking my progress and going back into the friction menu and iv even done over 90 laps in total with this aswell ,its just a massive time saver as you dont need to sit and watch it but just make sure you do a full 1 lap check to make sure the car you pick doesnt go off track into a barrier as every lap after lap 1 will be the same outcome on full assists.

i finally got mine on the 30th car at level 50 ,its either unlocked but not syncing with your xbox live to show it as unlocked or maybe because the achievement progress bar doesn't show its maybe glitched somehow ,what i would do is turn off your internet connection in the xbox settings then delete your local save data on the console NOT the save data on xbox live then do one more level 50 then reconnect your internet on the console and redownload your save file from xbox live as that usually corrects a glitchy achievement progression bar.

@rodrigo when you say some cars are stuck at 49, where are you seeing that, is it when they're on the track? When i look at the "my cars" section they are all showing as 50 but do they somehow show as 49 somewhere else?

I started this a few days ago and it was going great but now all of a sudden even if I have the friction screen up my game stops and asks if I am still playing after a period of time. Something changed the behavior. I am going to try this again this morning but this time rubber band the right analog stick to see if that prevents it from stopping.

UPDATE: Confirming that rubber banding the right analog stick does appear to work to keep the game from stopping. You probably don't need to be in the friction menu anymore either at that point.

Yeah it stops and asks you to resume every ~15 minutes now. Great to see that in a game with over 200 fixes (many of which didn't actually end up fixed) required they managed to prioritise patching out the AFK car leveling up method, lmao, cant make it up.

Rubber band method doesnt help, it seems if you run rivals it just pauses after 15 minutes regardless now so they clearly wanted to stamp this out.

I found a workaround, but it's PC only, requires paid software and is very much hardware dependant so it's unfortunately not a solution for everyone. It enables you run AFK rivals but frees your PC up to do something else, as this allows you to click off the game yet still keep it running.

1. Download DisplayFusion - depending on what license you choose it is either $35 or $50.
2. Create a function with DisplayFusion to always focus the selected window (Forza - make sure fullscreen is unchecked)
3. Run rivals, but remember to tap a control on the game every <15 minutes to register an input and prevent it from pausing
4. (Optional) - Drag the game to a secondary monitor to keep it out of your way

Again, you need to be present but at least you're able to not have the game focused but still do other things. This is more beneficial if you have another monitor to drag the game away to make it less of a distraction.

Not really a solution, more of a recommendation: if you got GPU you can let Forza run in the browser via Cloud Gaming. It will will even continue to run if you minimize it, so it won't use any graphics resource.

You can fully level one car within 3.0-3.5 hours depending on the car/lap times without touching anything or staying next to your console:

Necessary:

- You must plug in your controller
- You must disable „Show me things“. Dashboard > Settings > Preferences > Idle > Uncheck „Show me things“
- In Forza Settings > Driving Assists > Maximum Assists + Throttle: Assisted
[Optional: Controller Vibration from 100 to 0]

Game Setup:

- Rivals mode
- Select the class of the car you want to level
- Le Mans Circuit de la Sarthe
- Select track variation Old Mulsanne Circuit
- Start Race

As soon as the car drives itself you must press cn_down and then cn_right so you are in the Friction menu. This is essential, so the game won’t stop after 10 minutes.

- - - - -

You gain roughly one level in one lap. If you want to squeeze out a few minutes then auto-upgrade your car once in a while so you get faster lap times. I selected this track because it’s technical and gives a large amount of segment bonuses.

I'd definitely recommend upgrading your car every 10 levels as the scores you'll get are much better reduces the grind time. Holding the accelerator down also improves your scores. Better scores = quicker levelling.

Is there any particular reason for the track choice? I figured with the long straight you would be losing time getting XP. Have you tried other tracks that are shorter and turns/sectors more often? Just curious.

I just ran the 13 Dodge Viper on Le Mans. 3 hours 5 minutes. S class, stock, no upgrades.

Level 25 was reached at 22 rounds with 4 minutes 9 seconds and 1.5 hours.

In the end I don’t think it matters but someone can try this car at an oval.

Works very well in background (Homeoffice) - THX
Will try SPA tomorow, where you have more turns and so maybe more sektor bonuses?

Edit: 1 hour Spa - P Class Toyota -> 18 Levels (0-18)
-> theoretical Level 54 after 3 hours - but i don't think it makes much difference
https://abload.de/img/191a7515-fadf-4275-94lccjj.png
Edit2: 1 hour small oval (eaglerock) - P Class Toyota -> 16 Levels (18-34)

Tried different track (oval, more turns) etc. Seems all similar, in average it take 3-4h for different class of car to level up from 1 to 50.

Already unlocked 10 cars with level 50. Still 20 to go.

Works for me thanks for the guide. Not sure why you are being disliked.
I can't help but think that this car leveling up thing isn't what the developers intended. It's a pretty busted system. IMO max rank should be achieved in 30 minutes of racing. Maybe an hour max. It's too much of a grind to level cars up and I'm sure many people will just not upgrade or only pick one car per class.

So what's the best way to actually do it? I've seen a mix of Le Mans and oval get mentioned for the track to use (tried oval and didn't get any +25CXP notifications), and I know higher car class is faster, but how long would it take roughly to get a slower car (maybe D-B class) to level 50?

By FireWheels58 on 11 Oct 2023 01:55
With slow cars you need 3.5-3.75 hours, in very fast cars you see sub 3.0 hours.

On the other hand you need to optimize: You need to drive slower cars for the carreer, so a series and gain XP here until it’s finished and then use the trick above to finish them.

Miami is not the best way. My class X Porsche comparison:

- 1 Level on Miami: 3:55,xx = 9 laps
- 1 Level on Le Mans: 3:45,xx minutes = 1 lap + first segment of second lap

Miami gives like 6-7 segement score while Le Mans is more like 8s

Many of the GT cars on Le Mans have trouble exiting the esses while autodrive is enabled. They'll always go off track, and sometimes they'll hit the guardrail and spin out. Homestead is a more reliable option.

Still so far I used Susuka short -> has got 9 Turns. Give a decent amount of cxp.
X-Class needs around 50 sec., S-Class around 55 sec, ...
From LVL 0 to 50 it takes around 225 rounds.

Seems like the message not appearing while the telemetry is visible was partially fixed without a game update. The game now pauses after about 51 minutes of no input.

A new update came out to not really fix it. They didn't fix how long it takes up get to level 50, but apparently you can now only need to get to level 25 to get the last upgrade. While it doesn't make the achievement easier, you can at least more easily get a car to P/X class.

OP's method works fine but the PC Cloud on Game Pass times out after 11.5 minutes and exits but still saves all your progress.
CLOUD users: Like someone else suggested, it's a good idea to do an 11 minute timed race, 0 drivatars, and check in every 11 minutes to collect race money and start the event over. We can't boost overnight or for anything longer than 11 minutes and 30 seconds.

So since my above comment a few days ago, I manage to only get this working on lower class cars (C and B so far). R, P, and X class is impossible to do afk for me. Also the time out screen seems to be glitched as sometimes I time out while in the “friction” screen but other times it never times out on that same screen. So either that last update did change some things or it added some new glitches to this method.

Method works fine for me on the Series X, boosted 10 different cars within the last two days without issues.

Btw, I think upgrading midway through is not worth it if you're focusing on fast cars (S+, maybe A+ even), you won't save that much time to justify all the menuing. Even if it does end up saving a little bit of time I'd argue that in comparison to the 60h or so that you'll be using this method it's so negligible that your time is better spent just not worrying about the game at all while it's doing its thing. Personally, once a couple of laps are over I look at the best time and calculate when it's going to reach level 50.

So the track I have NO ISSUES with is Road America, the short version is simpler and will rarely even get your car on the grass, the longer one can throw some faster cars on to the grass as well as RARELY go against the wall if your braking/handling is too crappy. full version has more spots for progress but short will usually take around a minute +/-
I hope this was helpful to someone!

i finally got mine on the 30th car at level 50 ,its either unlocked but not syncing with your xbox live to show it as unlocked or maybe because the achievement progress bar doesn't show its maybe glitched somehow ,what i would do is turn off your internet connection in the xbox settings then delete your local save data on the console NOT the save data on xbox live then do one more level 50 then reconnect your internet on the console and redownload your save file from xbox live as that usually corrects a glitchy achievement progression bar.

I've used this track but it seems all the x class cars all go off the road multiple times and some even get completely stuck after the long straight. Just doing an oval seems to be easier and nothing will crash

Use a rubber band around the right trigger and the bottom of the controller to stop it from going into the popup menu

Not really a solution, more of a recommendation: if you got GPU you can let Forza run in the browser via Cloud Gaming. It will will even continue to run if you minimize it, so it won't use any graphics resource.

But cloud gaming usually kicks you out if you're inactive for so long, though there have been a few times where that didn't happen.

Didn't happen for me yesterday. Maybe because I had to be active in Forza every 15 minutes anyway.

Likely doesn't work on Cloud gaming with Game Pass PC because the cloud times out after 15 minutes of not touching the controller. I will test this theory and find out. Could be why the downvotes, this solution doesn't work for all players.

Imagine if players read this guide and think, "wow that is a neat trick", then proceed to downvote it.. Incredibly stupid of anyone to do so. This is a great guide!

I thought about making a guide with all the numbers, but it really boils down to the numbers shown here if you afk, or if you drive yourself the entire time each car is maxed out in roughly 2.5hrs, so yeah at least 75hrs of track time to max 30 cars..

I hope they double the CXP earned in track segments (the hidden value that moves the cxp bar) pretty soon, and also add a "Perfect Segment +100CXP" when you get 10.0, as that builds on the whole "connect with your car and level up"-thing. Leveling cars is way too slow the way it is now..

Okay, after doing some research, I stumbled upon this YouTube video (watch?v=DOuEl5cFB4). I was experiencing problems with my current cable, but replaced it with my phone's cable and now everything is working fine. It's important to note that a standard USB cable may not be sufficient; it's better to invest in a Data Transfer cable.

I got this by leaving the game on overnight and during the day. Basically 24/7 for the last few days. Full assists, Rivals, Nurburgring GP circuit, Turbo controller holding B. This was helpful, as I could see what level my car was instead of the telemetry menu. I would just glace over at the screen every once in a while and change cars when they hit 50. Take about 3 hours or slightly more of continuous driving to hit level 50 in any car on any track, so that doesn't make a significant difference. I kept vibration on and just left the controller wired on a pillow. No changes to my Xbox settings were needed.

It helps that this gives a ton of money too. Driver level 605, 21m credits since launch. Guess I'm set?

This no longer works for me. Multiple different cars in a row at different classes all get stuck against a wall. Also the game times out even with the friction menu up now. Seems to be patched

Both pre- and post-patch, Le Mans isn't a good track because of autodrive not handling the esses exit well.

I've had a car autodriving for the past hour without needing dismiss the popup. Last Friday it was timing out after the first 50 minutes, and since then it's been fine. I don't know if the tab makes a difference, but I've been staying on General.

The method mentioned above definitely works 100% with no issues ,currently using it on the test drive option on the old mulsanne track on the series S console even after the 2nd game patch ,you can press down while in the friction menu at any time to check your level progress ,if its been around 15 mins when you check it the time out screen will appear but just press resume then go back into the friction menu ,this has never timed out once while in the friction menu even after checking my progress and going back into the friction menu and iv even done over 90 laps in total with this aswell ,its just a massive time saver as you dont need to sit and watch it but just make sure you do a full 1 lap check to make sure the car you pick doesnt go off track into a barrier as every lap after lap 1 will be the same outcome on full assists.

Currently done 16 cars to level 50 but no achievement for having done 10 cars.

@rodrigo when you say some cars are stuck at 49, where are you seeing that, is it when they're on the track? When i look at the "my cars" section they are all showing as 50 but do they somehow show as 49 somewhere else?

I started this a few days ago and it was going great but now all of a sudden even if I have the friction screen up my game stops and asks if I am still playing after a period of time. Something changed the behavior. I am going to try this again this morning but this time rubber band the right analog stick to see if that prevents it from stopping.

UPDATE: Confirming that rubber banding the right analog stick does appear to work to keep the game from stopping. You probably don't need to be in the friction menu anymore either at that point.

I found a workaround, but it's PC only, requires paid software and is very much hardware dependant so it's unfortunately not a solution for everyone. It enables you run AFK rivals but frees your PC up to do something else, as this allows you to click off the game yet still keep it running.

1. Download DisplayFusion - depending on what license you choose it is either $35 or $50.
2. Create a function with DisplayFusion to always focus the selected window (Forza - make sure fullscreen is unchecked)
3. Run rivals, but remember to tap a control on the game every <15 minutes to register an input and prevent it from pausing
4. (Optional) - Drag the game to a secondary monitor to keep it out of your way

Again, you need to be present but at least you're able to not have the game focused but still do other things. This is more beneficial if you have another monitor to drag the game away to make it less of a distraction.

When I tried to do this with the Koenigsegg Jesko, it kept ending up straight in a wall. At least 3 times during the "race", I had to get it out of the wall and re-start it along its way. After 50 laps it still wasn't level 50 because of all the times it went off track. Watching that car do a lap is quite entertaining, even when it doesn't get itself stuck.

Well, APEX N3RD wrote:
Even completed a series achievement to see if that may trigger, still hasnt popped.
So he already tried to pop that achievement with the help of another one and had no success.
It is the last achievement for my wife and she didn’t got it with 30 cars on level 50.
Trigger it by unlocking an achievement in another game doesn‘t work either.
So the question is, if everyone who have the same issue should level more cars, until it pops or is it better to delete the savegame and start from scratch, if this is even possible and progress is not stored online..

The achievement pops the moment you reach level 50 while driving. I just got it.

Edit: Good news everybody, according to the TA tracker, APEX N3RD unlocked the achievement today. So I guess it was a late/silent pop in the background and it is not bugged!

If it takes 3 hours to get a car to level 50, that is 90 hours for 30 cars. With a completion time of 100-120 hours, most people are getting the other 56 achievements in 10-30 hours.

That calculation doesn't factor in that you'll end up with a lot of cars in the lvl 20-25 range after doing the 4 tours. But yeah, this achievement makes up a pretty big chunk of the completion time for sure.

My tips would be;

Do some of this while trying for Online achievements just so you are knocking out as many achievements as possible & lvl ups.

Then do all the cars you driven for the 4 tours 1st as they will be the quickest to complete as they will all be in the range of lvl 15-25.
Then use all the credits you got to buy P/X class cars to do the lvl 1-50 quicker & also do them over night if you're able to. I'm currently at 19 cars at lvl 50. Hoping to be done all of this early tomorrow morning or in the evening.

This didn't pop for me on reaching 30 cars at lvl 50. It was actually 31 cars. I had the same issue with the 10 car achievement, it actally poped at 11 cars

Hi, I’m the wife. I got the achievement now. I needed one more car to rank up. I’m assuming it’s some kind of Rhyse dilemma. The game simply swallows some cars & doesn’t recognize them. My Viper had a white bar but the lvl kept saying 49. No amount of EXP changed that & when I got to my cars, it was suddenly 50. So try lvl up more cars. Apex said, he had to do 2 more cars, then it eventually popped for him.

If you don't want to use "afk auto-control method", and grind all levels by yourself. I found following method:
1. Pick Free Play
2. Choose car (if you have credits focus on best two car categories)
3. Quick configuration
4. Choose:
- Eaglerock Speedway
- variant OVAL
- 60 laps (which give you aprox 10 lvls of car), one lap can take 26-28seconds
- start grinding laps and car levels
- total race time should take under 30 minutes
- after that you can choose RESTART RACE (You will not loose grinded XP!).
- you will get car 50 lvl in 2h30min, mainly controlling only the throttle and turning left

Hint : each time you choose RESTART RACE try to do quick upgrade in race menu, this should speed up the process even more.

This is my current working guide as I am grinding this.

Since the full AFK mode has been patched, it can still be modified. Every 15 minutes your game is going to pause and make you press resume. One way to continue to do this is to "babysit" the game. Feel free to do anything else knowing it is going to pause every 15 minutes. Play another system, homework, telework, etc.

Also, If found that segments, lap length, exp given are all relative. While a short track might have more segments, you will get less exp for them. Testing across different tracks, I found that you will get a car to lvl 50 in 3-3.5 hrs regardless whether you are on a short oval (Eagle Speedway), long oval (Miami Speedway), short complex circuit (maple valley club), or long complex circuit (Le Sathe). What I did notice though, is with faster cars, you are more likely to crash and get stuck even with max assists. I found that I have never crashed on long ovals though and they are my go-to for this grind now.


Other tips, you can have a wired controller rubber banded and still turn on your wireless controller and press A to resume the "pause wall". Currently, I have been teleworking and with my tv in another room, checking my pet camera to see when the game pauses and resuming it with my wireless controller.

I will update if find any quicker or better tips.

An unfortunate reality. But I have begun my grind. Pretty much agree that this seems to be the method.

So this is more of a method than an actual guide since this achievement is extremely long winded and there is at this moment no real way to cheese it. Also when doing this I strongly advise fully upgrading whatever care you are currently aiming to get towards 50 because faster car = faster levels or at least that's how it felt to me perhaps my logic is flawed. But in my eyes quicker laps meant quicker levels typically.

The mode that is working well for me is rivals.

Mode: Rivals
Track: Hakone Grand Prix 2.66 Miles
Car: ANY (Whatever you are working on basically)

Don't bother trying to beat your rival unless you really care. Just race around the track as fast and carefully as you can, you should if your car is fully upgraded be able to level up around every 3minutes give or take. I've done about 5+ cars already using this method and its how I plan to finish the rest off. I do it during work days etc and just listen to a podcast etc. It flies by since the track is varied enough to keep me interested but not too simple that I get bored and lose interest like with the oval tracks.
