Show me that statement in this game and what those users did is cheating. You have a point that it could be considered a bug, I just don't think the monkeys care enough to change it, they'd rather work on new cars and events that will cost GC. There is no unfair advantage to this current system - it's just a case of the rich will get richer - since both you and I, or anyone in the game can do it. When everyone can openly do it then it is not cheating by definition. So if I hack the stats of my car you are ok to race against me like that. Show me where it says I cannot. If I make my car, literally, fly above the track, that Cool with you. https://www.ea.com/terms-of-service

Read this - it explicitly says no hacking

Below that it does state no exploits - I count the old ability to 'rent' upgrades for WTTT in that category, but FMEA closed that, so any methods to 'rent' upgrades violates this. So until FMEA creates events that require races to finish and start in the given time period I don't see that it violates the TOS. If you don't like it then stop playing, no one is forcing you to stay. In reality how many users put up extreme numbers by using this loophole? Most are on teams that would finish top 100 anyways, so if you're on the team who finishes 101 and don't use it then sure you have a case, but as an individual user they have no bearing on my use of the team challenge, they go after top 100 placings, I go after the team bonuses, I collect my 20-60 GC and be done with it. Most distance and lap challenges I can get those rewards myself using autopilot (the last one was too much as it would have taken 17 hours of autopilot to get it).
