Featured Multiplayer, Rivals and Challenge Hub
The update included a Porsche Motorsport Series in Featured Multiplayer and Porsche-themed Rivals events. The 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 R was also a Challenge Hub reward for completing 15 laps in the Porsche Rivals event. Those were event-period unlocks, not evidence of a currently active challenge.

Permanent Spec Division Rivals
Alongside the limited-time Porsche Month activities, Update 19 introduced permanent Spec Division Rivals. Turn 10 said the mode uses the same Spec Series balance-of-performance tune as Featured Multiplayer. It offers a place to set leaderboard laps, practice for multiplayer and try cars in divisions including Forza GT2 and GT3.
Track, audio and balance changes
Default track rubbering-in
Update 19 changed the default rubbering-in level at the start of practice and races:
Rank #3
- Doors Open
- Pullback Action
- Die Cast Metal Body
- Pull Back Action
| Session start | Before Update 19 | Update 19 default |
|---|---|---|
| Practice | 33% | 20% |
| Race | 66% | 75% |
These are the default percentages described by Turn 10 for the update. The practice setting therefore starts with less rubber on track, while the race setting starts with more.
Car audio
Turn 10 updated audio for the 2016 Ford Shelby GT-350R, 2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupé and 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, citing community feedback.
Rank #4
- Brand new box
- Real rubber tires.
- Detailed interior, exterior.
- Die-cast metal body and chassis,
- Dimensions approximately L-2.75 inches long.
Forza GT2 and GT3 balance
Forza GT2 and GT3 received a Spec/BoP overhaul. Cars reverted to stock parts except for tire-width normalization, then were retuned with feedback from Forza Insiders Program participants.
Three cars were removed from the Featured Multiplayer Forza GT3 eligible list: the 2018 Lamborghini #63 Squadra Corse Huracán Super Trofeo Evo, the 2015 Lamborghini #63 Squadra Corse Huracán LP620-2 Super Trofeo and the 2017 Ferrari #25 Corse Clienti 488 Challenge.

Historical details behind the Porsche lineup
Turn 10 called the 1971 Porsche #23 917/20 the “Pink Pig” and described it as an icon despite not crossing the finish line in the race referenced in the announcement. The studio said the 1987 Porsche #203 Porsche AG 961 caught fire after driver Kees Nierop’s accident in the race’s eighteenth hour and did not race again. It also highlighted the distinctive rear-end design of the 1978 Porsche #78 MOMO 935/78 and said the car won the 1978 Silverstone six-hour race. These are historical details as presented by the game’s developer.
