Step 1: Complete the First Four Challenges
Start by completing the first four Summer Road Trip Challenges that went live on July 22. These are relatively straightforward:
- Private Match: Jump into a private match and enable any custom mutators
- Online Grinding: Play 3 regular online matches (wins not required)
- Party Time: Team up with friends for 2 matches
- Victory Lap: Secure just 1 online win
Step 2: Earn the ZR1 Wheels
Completing all four initial quests will grant you the ZR1 wheels, which are essential for the final challenge.
Step 3: Wait for July 28th
The final step is time-gated until Monday, July 28, so patience is key here.
Step 4: Final Push with Friends
On July 28, you’ll need to play 5 online matches in a party with the ZR1 wheels equipped to unlock the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 car body.
Pro Tips for Quick Completion
Challenge Optimization
Private Match Setup: For the custom mutator challenge, create a private match with any modifier (like increased ball size or low gravity) and play for just a few minutes—you don’t need to complete the full match.
Party Formation: Use Rocket League’s built-in party system or invite friends directly. Solo queue won’t count for party-based challenges.
Wheel Requirement: Make sure to equip the ZR1 wheels before starting your final 5 matches on July 28th—this is crucial for the car unlock.
Time Management Strategy
Since the event runs until August 4th, you have plenty of time after July 28th to complete the final challenge. Don’t rush—take your time to enjoy the process with friends.
Cross-Game Benefits
One of the coolest aspects of this event is that completing the challenges unlocks the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 car body in both Rocket League and Fortnite. This dual-game reward system makes the grind even more worthwhile for players active in both titles.
What Happens After the Event?
After the Summer Road Trip event ends, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 will be sold in the Item Shop as part of the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Bundle for an unknown amount of Credits. This makes the free unlock during the event incredibly valuable—you’re essentially saving whatever premium price Epic Games sets later.
Why This Car is Worth Your Time
The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 isn’t just another cosmetic addition. It represents one of America’s most iconic supercars, bringing that real-world prestige into Rocket League’s competitive arena. The sleek design and authentic styling make it perfect for players who want to cruise the field in style.
Plus, having exclusive access to a car that others will need to pay for later gives you serious bragging rights in the community.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to own any DLC or premium content to participate in the Summer Road Trip event?
A: No! The Summer Road Trip event is completely free for all Rocket League players. You don’t need any DLC, premium battle pass, or paid content. All challenges can be completed with the base game, and the only requirement is having friends to party up with for certain challenges.
Q: Can I complete the challenges solo, or do I absolutely need friends for the party-based tasks?
A: You’ll need at least one other player for the party-based challenges (2 matches for the initial challenge and 5 matches for the final ZR1 unlock). However, you can use Rocket League’s matchmaking system to find random teammates, or join Discord communities to find other players working on the same challenges. The game doesn’t require you to have personal friends—any party formation works.
