I had an idea of how FM could refresh the farming for fame race.

It would be called The Weekly Fame Race


 * Similar to Weekly Time Trial Tournament, there would be a Car and Track combination:
 * Car would come from Legend Category
 * Car would have to be upgraded to the minimum PR for 100% completion in its Main Series.
 * If car cannot be upgraded for that percentage, then the minimum PR would be for next lowest completion (75%, 50%, 25%)
 * Car would need to be fully serviced to enter the race
 * Car would be automatically serviced at the end of each race by a dedicated Weekly Fame Race mechanic, so as not to tie up the player’s mechanic.
 * At the end of the normal servicing period, the race could be run again.
 * There would be no 30% time reduction opportunity
 * Race would have a set Fame payout regardless of distance or laps.
 * 1st Place would “pay” 30,000 Fame.
 * Subsequent places would be 10% Fame less than the prior position.
 * Agent could be used once per day.
 * Fame Race could not be combined with first race bonus.
 * Bot difficulty would be set based on Player's current level
 * Starting position would be randomized each race.

Based on this, it would
 * Reduce the amount of Laps for farming
 * Vary the Cars that can be used to farm for Fame
 * Vary the tracks where farming races are run on.
 * Limit the number of times the Fame race could be run, reducing the chance of cheating.
 * Provide FM the opportunity to create a way for players to earn fame besides the 10-Lap Le Mans Race or creating new series with equivalent races.
 * It would maintain the significance for players to reach Endurance Kings or Endurance Champions, as those would be the races you would want to have for first race Fame bonuses, and also when you want to run significantly more races in the day to level up.
