The Ultima 1020 has too much power to be useful. You spin it all away at anything below 200kmh. And by that time, the competition is already gone.

I usually put it into 4th gear once we've taken off it does have a little wheel spin but if you feather the throttle to manage to stay with the pack

When does the forzathon part unlock? This week via update? Because it's still locked for me.

According to the pre-release screenshot the first event doesn't start until the 7th.

So is 25 million the most fans you can have?

Yep. There goes my hopes of having the entire planet's population in my festival...

I was a little bummed when I stopped getting fans. I like them because it's a barometer of how many events you've done. You can get to super high levels just drifting in fields.

I'm at level 360 and at some point the amount of XP's needed per level started to increase.
It's increasing by about 300 per level.
Right now I need 38000 XP for my next level.

Unfortunately the face buttons don't have pressure sensitivity. And for us Layout 8 users, that means we can't modulate throttle or brake pressure.

Had some fun the other night with some buddies when we realized the drag strip gives head starts to lower classes. We found a few ridiculous cars via tuning and were demolishing the room via C class.

We're reasonably sure the gap is 10 seconds, which is just ridiculous for something that's maybe a standing mile or so. We started waiting at the line and honking to pass the time, or in one situation, actually did donuts around the S2 competition before the run itself. Judging by the times, we would've been reasonably close to them even without the staggered starts!

 

[DJTHEKING]

Found a funny glitch. If you put the Fuc Rotiform wheels on the Isetta, the wheel are too large for the tires and the wheels in the back pass through the transmission or something like that

So i decided to help myself with career mode by adding some structure to it with the help of Blueprint. To start I listed all the pre-made championships than added some of my own. Once I got that part done I used a random number generator to determine the order (Thankfully the 250/Cobra one is towards the bottom). The last thing I did was lay some ground rules for myself.

- All championships must be at least 50 miles long.
- I must come in 1st for the championship to be considered complete.
- Championships must be completed in the order they are listed to count as completed.
- No switching cars.

Here is the result

The Horizon Finale at the end is going to be a 5 lap race on the Goliath circuit in whatever ends up being my most successful car.

And in a non-related note, this game has no respect for a successful barrel roll! I would think with all the random stuff it gives you skill points for a complete barrel roll would be one.

I like this idea! I may join you in this, as I'm getting near the end of the main "story" for the game and I feel like it went by very quickly.

Great idea Northstar!

Woops, wrong thread

Say, guys, is there some sort of rewards for finding all the roads?

I believe there is an Achievement for it.

AWD swap it. Kinda nasty to do so, but with how much easier they are to control and how important launching right past most of the competition is on short races, AWD really is the answer you're looking for.

Two things I wanted to share here. First, proof of the 200,000cr payout. This is my third.

Second, I did a rivals race. I'm not showing this so you can see I beat someone. No, I'm showing this because it's a clean lap of the Goliath course. Nearly 13 minutes and not a single tree hit, wall tapped, checkpoint missed or use of the Y button. I am so freaking proud of that.

It does.

Nice man. I just did 10 laps of the goliath race.

Went from level 122 to 174, went from 3.6m to 7.3m after the wheels spins and got the Horizon edition mustang. Did it in campaign so I could pause it haha. My mate showed me photos of someone that did it for 8 and a half hours. Crazy...

 

[SuperVeloce]

How do you get reward money that's been claimed in Forza Hub? In previous games, it was through "messages", but I can't find them anywhere. Unless they're in the "social" tab, which is inaccessible (I don't have Gold).

 

[yabiggoose]

What have people set as their plates? Here's what I settled on.

Unregistered, lol.

One thing I noticed, in the head to head races the drivatars almost always stick to the roads. It seems they don't go off-road, or take shortcuts, like they did in FH2. It makes them super easy to beat.

 

[HuskyGT]

Gotta love how almost every playground adventure, everyone votes for S2 class, supercars and hypercars. Even though they're worthless off road, which all of the Games are mostly comprised of.
Guarantee it's mostly 15 year olds that crack a fatty to whatever the hypercar of the week is.

Yup. That's why I stay offline. Same problem in FM6. Either supercars or ridiculously over-tuned cars.

I drive my cars almost stock. I just add a sports exhaust or air filter to make it feel like I've done something to the car. The most "exotic" cars I drive are the old Viper and Diablo.

I don't know . .. I've never had a thing for modern hypercars or supercars.

Keeping them mostly stock too, just upgrading to the highest point in the stock performance class (600, 700) but online players rarely choose the B class, but going straight to S1 or S2.

dolanpls. Don't ask.

Same here, I just bring it to top of class and that's it. I do have the occasional oddball tuned to max, but I try to have a diverse set of classes to pick from.

Add me to the mostly stock drivers club. The only change I routinely make is to add a full-race transmission to American and Australian muscle cars because they're always so under-geared. Turns a car bouncing off the rev-limiter at 112 into a 150 to 160 mph car easy.

Hell yeah, I have 3 or 4 cars that are max tuned too. Rally Fighter AWD for offroading/jumps, Dart Hemi for drag, and a LaFerrari for speedzones/traps. The others are lightly tuned for street races.

Finally got my drivatar lineups from the GTP club, all 4 of 'em.
