NFSW News!

Devs keep adding specific car oriented achievements, which instantly comes down to boost-only achievements for those who have:
Audi R8 LMS Ultra
Koenigsegg Agera
Porsche Carrera GT
JAGUAR XKR
Ford F-150 SVT Raptor
Pagani Zonda Cinque
Nissan R34 GT-R Z-Tune
Lamborghini Aventador
and so on...

What devs can and probably will do, to make it "fair" for everyone is rental cars, which should be possible to get for IGC players as well with limitations.
