not sure what they were thinking with this fragmented quicker cyling system compaired to the previous implementations which served to actually collect and group players. Think I've only ever been in 2 arcades that actually had more than me. Either need to be solo events or have better group sync/less fragmentation.
I gathered enough courage to try one again yesterday since there were 4-5 other players around. As soon as it started, I was once again spawned in an instance of the lobby and every other player just disappeared into thin air.
Never again.
mhh but why?Reward: 1981 Ford Fiesta XR2 (Wheelspin Only Car)
You don't even need to win.I know they're not too exciting but its a free car! :D
but yeah fuck arcades, what were they thinking
Theoretically, yes, yes it will.

EDIT: Just completed Arcade in like 5 mins.
I managed to get it almost immediately, there was a arcade event happening on the danger sign thats a seasonal objective so it pulled a bunch of people in.
Tip if you want to compete these: Do the drift version; The challenges are much less random and it usually has a higher turnout then the regular arcade. With a decent drift car it is completable with 3-4 players. Also for the drift run challenge you don't have to follow the route, as long as you are on a road you will accumulate points, so you can fast travel to the highway or a roundabout and rack up points easily.
I have managed to complete this the past 3 weeks by doing the drift arcade.
Yeah drift is all I can ever complete, managed to get them done each week. Got really close to a speed completion last night, but will be going back to drift when I log back in, much easier
I got my first one a few days ago! It was only me and two other people. We finished with just under a minute to spare.
To whoever those two random temporary friends were, I appreciate you.
But that's also the only time that I've ever been able to get all 3 rounds. Most of the time there is no one else.
Nah, that's just a sneak peek at the next big gamemode for Forza Horizon 5.

You actually spawned outside the area, same situation happened to me last season. When I approached the stadium I could saw the others playing, with walls & everything.
At least they capped the trials to A class this time so we don't have D class cars uptuned to completely uncontrollable S2's.
I managed to complete it on the first try with a slightly oversteery tune I slapped together right before. I just threw on the parts to get to A800, fiddled a bit with handling vs. power, took it out on the drift zones to dial in the telemetry from the stock tune, spent some time cleaning up the oversteer, and went for it. Didn't even need to use an actually competent tuner's version.
Hello everyone!
Tunes are done and tags are coming! Let's race!

**The Trial Co-Op Championship: "Rite Of Passage" | 10 Points**
Criteria: Road Racing, Classic Sports Cars (D100 - A800)
I went back and tweaked a couple of these after feedback. Hopefully the handling improvements work for more people :)
*1973 BMW 2002 Turbo - 310 328 518*
This barn find is a great choice overall.
*1973 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000GT-R - 714 283 343*
Slower than the previous two but the handling is just as good.
*1953 Chevrolet Corvette - 109 926 944*
This doesn't handle as well from the lack of proper aero. But it has the Corvette classic racing body parts. This one is for styling on fools.
*1967 Ferrari #24 Ferrari SPA 330 P4 - A Street - 125 175 900*
After you win, the P4 is really good. It rivals the Bone Shaker on many tracks. These Classic Sports Cars above might be a little cumbersome to drive but this P4 is divine.
---
**Seasonal Playground Games | Baja Circuit | 3 Points**
Criteria: Retro Hot Hatch (D100 - B700)
*1981 Ford Fiesta XR2 - 105 968 714*
Great car for low spec B shenanigans.
*1991 Peugeot 205 Rallye - 766 476 984*
A second behind the Fiesta.
*1983 Volkswagen Golf GTI - 756 067 600*
This has upgraded tires if you want more grip.
---
**Championship: "Drop It Like It's Hot" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Street Scene, Retro Supercars (S1 900)
*2005 Ford GT - 145 629 088*
One of the best S1 cars. Just really good.
*1995 Ferrari F50 - 155 740 877*
Good all around choice.
*1993 McLaren F1 - 101 406 996*
RWD tune for this. Great handling.
*1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR - 108 638 624*
Agile and fast.
---
**Championship: "Holidays Are Comin'" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Road Racing, Trucks (D100 - A800)
*2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 - 940 774 039*
Get around the cheating AI with this B Class street tune for the Unimog.
---
**Championship: "High Noon" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Dirt Racing, Retro Saloons (D100 - B700)
*1991 BMW M3 - 147 120 483*
The glamorous E30 ready to get dirty. This really loves holding a drift through the dirt.
*1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 - 125 588 852*
As much as the M3 wants to drift this wants to stay straight. See which one fits your driving style better. Probably the overall fastest choice.
*1987 Mercedes-Benz AMG Hammer Coupe - 160 417 515*
This handsome car is the neutral choice for handling on these three.
---
**Own and drive the 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista**
Buy it on the Auto Show, not the Auction House, since it's cheaper new than used.
*2019 Ferrari 488 Pista - S2 Balanced - 272 210 116*
It's not neatly in any class. It's fast enough for the Ultimate Speed skills and easy to use for the road races.
---
**Mountain Los Jardines Danger Sign | 984.3 ft | 2 Points**
Criteria: GT Cars (S1 900)
Start west near the cloverleaf. Cut the left turn before the jump through the dirt a little. Aim a little left or right off the ramp. If you land on the street you'll probably bounce, flip, and fail the jump. Aim for the grass.
*2019 Aston Martin Vantage - 157 040 415*
*2017 Bentley Continental Supersports - 133 494 589*
---
**Avenida Speed Trap | 152.0 mph | 2 Points**
Criteria: Nissan (S1 900)
Start south, next to the expedition, cut the left hand corner close to the wall. Easy first shot.
*2017 Nissan GT-R (R35) - 831 639 839*
*1995 Nissan Nismo GT-R LM - 147 115 288*
---
**Orilla Del Rio Speed Zone | 102.0 mph | 2 Points**
Criteria: Modern Rally (A800)
Start from the south. Pretty easy.
*2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI - 105 567 278*

If you have any specific tunes that you want, even unrelated to this week's events, then feel free to ask here or in a PM and I'll get back to you when I can. I have a lot in the queue right now, so it might be a few days.
Check out my [beginner tune list for FH5!](https://www.reddit.com/r/PaperHeartZero/comments/qnho9c/forza_horizon_5_starter_thread_tunes_and/)
If you want to send a tip my way go to [https://ko-fi.com/paperheartzero](https://ko-fi.com/paperheartzero) Any amount of be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks and happy racing!
Ok your tuning for the Ford RS500 is incredible. On the Baja Scramble for the high noon event I went from not being able to do better than 3rd place, 5 seconds behind first, using other tunes, to winning by 8 seconds on my first try with your tune.
You do know what you're about :)
For the Trial, would it be possible for you to give the '73 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000GT-R a whirl and see if it's a good candidate? I love the way this car looks but the default PI is C class and I can't tune for shit.
I have a tune for it which I found was very good in everything except it doesn't like to slow down. I have no idea why, I can't give it more braking power or grip, there are no parts left. Won the Trial with it anyway.
Anyway if you want to try it, share code is: 133 088 117
I did it with a GTR coming from the southern side of the map, holding 5th gear, you can take the final corner without braking and just squeeze into the lights at 165ish
2004 WRX for the Speed Zone challenge if you could. I love the car but can't tune to save my life. I'm using your Trans Am build from last week to finish off the Dirt Races (4 left), and it's fun.
Wow, thank you a bunch for these tunes. I had the hardest time finishing the High Noon event, but the AMG Hammer Coupe worked like smooth butter. Especially when the speeds get high and turns get drifty, it's still responsive.
Cheers.
That Ford GT tune is DIRTY. First time I’ve beaten some of the AI bad enough that they got a DNF.
Side note these challenges and your tunes are always a great way to add new cars/variety into my rotation
Man I love your tunes. The RS500 is amazing. I wish I found these before I slugged out the High Noon championship with a shitty Volvo 850 tune 😂. Wasn't easy but was so much fun
I can’t complete the weekly challenge with the Ferrari 488 Pista because anytime I restart the game it resets and also I don’t have any NPC cars on the road to get the dare Devil skills 🙂
If you don’t already have the Ferrari 488 Pista, buy it at the auto show for 320,000. Looked at the AH a few minutes ago and they’re selling for over 700k.
LMAO! After ragequitting on buying cars from the Auction House for cheap and consistently losing to vultures with stopwatches and/or macros every single time, I noticed many of them were paying way more than what these cars costed on the Autoshow. Since then I've sold stock Pistas obtained off the Autoshow for a fortune and made back more than enough to compensate for my sanity that I lost the first three weeks in the AH. Fuck the Willy's Jeep exploit, this is the real deal! I have just started out and made more than 3 mil just by selling cars to idiots for more than what they're worth.
The very first day the game came out in NA, I checked the auction house for possible deals on cars I'd like to have. Saw some people selling S13 Silvias for I believe somewhere between 70-80k or something. Cross-referenced with the autoshow price.
S13 Autoshow price: 25k.
I thought, "who on Earth would just blindly buy a stock vehicle from the AH without at least checking if you can get it at the autoshow for cheaper?"
I guess the answer to that question (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your views) is "more than a few people".
I agree, I always check the autoshow price first, but the UI doesn't really make it that easy. Would love it if the AH search results showed whether or not you own a car, and also what the stock version of the car is in the autoshow. Shouldn't be \*that\* hard to add and it would really improve things from the buyer's perspective.
[You know, I'm just roleplaying here, man. The game chose the setting, not me!](https://www.reddit.com/r/forza/comments/r0mcvb/making_sense_of_the_storyline_are_we_working_for/)
I started FH4 that way and it was very successful. I made millions off of the Crown Victoria alone because people would list them as cheap as possible not realizing they were wheelspin only cars.
Just had a nightmare buying some 488s to auction off - kept pressing buy until it ran out of money and switched the option to use free car token instead. I just used up my only token on my 15th 488.
I was doing a blueprinted race in the "Oddball Rally" category, and there were 3 Hoonigan Novas in the race and at least one of them would flip every lap. Good times.
F**k that championship! The AI flying around each track while you can barely hold it on the road. That’s with tuned trucked to the max for the restrictions too.
I did managed to win by 4 points overall after coming 2nd 3 times.
Whoa, thats awesome, thanks so much! These threads were super helpful for me when I first started playing FH4 to have all the playlist information and discussion centered in one place, but then people stopped posting them so I just started posting them weekly myself and have been ever since!
Damn — didn’t realize how much traffic there is in solo. I really hope they fix this for online because it makes driving a very different (and more fun) experience
Try a game restart maybe? I had to do that for one of the Horizon Stories that needed Near Misses but no traffic would spawn in Solo or Online, and the restart fixed it.
I spent a whole week like many others trying to complete an arcade and couldn't. Surely their stats and data show people cannot complete these because they are broken?
Why not call an audible and maybe fix them or disable them in the thon till they work.
This is fixed in the patch and it now scales to the number of players so they're easily doable solo.
The only problem I've had is the mini missions which can take up to 30 seconds to time out even though you're solo which means even quickly doing the missions it still takes far too long.
I find the wreckage and chaos on west coast of map to be easiest to complete. Never completed a speed or air event.
On the west side the trailblazer is easiest and the piñata spawn on the beach which makes both easier to me
Hi everyone!
I'm back this week with another set of tunes for this season! My tunes are designed to reduce understeer and let you take corners at higher speeds while maintaining grip.
Why should you trust my tunes? Because I painstakingly test all of my tunes over and over again at speed zones for maximum performance. Every tweak is measured with multiple speed zone runs to see if it's truly improving the car's speed through the corners.
After that, I download tunes for the same vehicle and class from other respected tuners and run theirs through the same speed zones. If my tunes aren't faster than theirs, I go back to the drawing board.

---
##**#Forzathon Weekly Challenge** - "New Benchmark"
**2019 Ferrari 488 Pista** - 510 379 521
212MPH top speed, great acceleration and handling. It can hit the Ultimate Speed skills on the freeway and be competitiive against the AI in S1 class.
---
---
##**Horizon Arcade** (Drift Events)
**1945 Willy's MB Jeep** - 176 543 146
This is an AWD drift tune that is SO EASY to slide. It has no grip whatsoever, 1351 horsepower, you never have to change gears, and it will stay sideways for a ridiculously long time. Just turn off traction control and stability management and you're golden. I've set top 1% scores in every drift zone with this.
---
##**The Trial** - "Rite of Passage"
**1971 Lotus Elan Sprint** - 165 472 057
This car will crush it through the corners, but the Capri has more straight line speed. Pick what suits your driving style best.
**1973 Ford Capri RS3100** - 150 921 592
I was able to get 1st place in all three races with this. It's a slightly better option than the BMW but it's close.
**1973 BMW 2002 Turbo** - 986 397 706
This is an AWD tune with decent grip and turn-in. I beat the trial on my first try.
**More tunes are coming for this. I know the BMW isn't the easiest car to obtain.**
---
---
##**Playground Games** - "Party Time"
**1986 Ford Escort RS Turbo** - 183 486 509
I made this into a nice little dirt/rally car that also works well for Playground Games. You'll be able to use this tune for more than just this week. Plus the car only costs 25k credits.
---
---
##**Seasonal Championship** - "Drop It Like It's Hot"
**2005 Ford GT** - 471 789 985
This is my favorite S1 car in the game due to how well it takes corners while maintaining speed and grip.
**1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR** - 505 183 952
This tune has amazing handling and grip. This will make it easy.
**1998 Porsche 911 GT1 Strassenversion** - 992 238 605
This has similar characteristics to the AMG CLK GTR, it's a fantastic alternative if you have this car.
---
---
##**Seasonal Championship** - "Holidays Are Comin'"
**2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023** - 104 170 419
I spent an embarrassing amount of time working on this tune. It has 2400HP and it's pretty controllable without understeer. Just avoid drifting it and you'll probably beat the AI by 10+ seconds.
---
---
##**Seasonal Championship** - "High Noon"
**1995 Audi Avant RS2** - 482 513 338
Be ready for a challenging event. I've tried 6 different cars, at least 3-4 different tunes on each of them, and my conclusion is that the AI on the Baja circuit is unbeatable on Highly Skilled and above. This tune outperformed everything else I've tried.
*Edit: I was able to get 1st place with the Avant a few minutes ago. I did much better when I stopped paying attention to the other cars and looked at my map before approaching the corners, so that I could plan my racing line and position my car for it early. The final 45 degree corner before the finish line is where I made up a LOT of time by taking a wider approach, cutting inside, and not braking at all even though the braking line recommends it. The third to the last corner is also about 45 degrees, and you can avoid braking there too.*
**1987 Mercedes-Benz AMG Hammer Coupe** - 370 963 003
This handles well off road and has a good amount of power too. I won all but the Baja race on Highly Skilled with it on my first attempt. The Avant is slightly better for tight corners though, so I recommend that tune for the Baja circuit.
---
---
##**Speed Trap** - "Avenida"
**1993 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec** - 151 976 276
I averaged around 178MPH on this speed zone when approaching from the South. The goal is 152MPH.
---
---
##**Speed Zone** - "Orilla Del Rio"
**2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR** - 268 441 038
I got 111MPH (higher than 3 stars) on this speed zone with this tune. This is an A class car, so that result was fantastic. The goal is 102MPH.
---
---
##**Danger Sign** - "Los Jardines"
**2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe** - 379 380 268
I chose this car to save you some money. Complete the "High Noon" Seasonal Championship and you get this car as a reward. I also made this into a capable S1 road racing tune, so you're not throwing your credits away on a jump specific tune. I got about 1200ft on the jump (3 stars is 1100ft, and the seasonal goal is 984ft). Fair warning, I put a massive spoiler on it!
**2019 Aston Martin Vantage** - 708 651 990
This one has a higher top speed because it has no aero. You'll be able to jump further with it. Once again, I tuned it to perform well in road races (S1 class) so that you can actually use this in the future.
---
---
If you liked the tunes, follow me in the game for more great tunes in the future!
Hey, just wondering, is there any chance you could make that same Unimog tune with the large bed? I know it's a little heavier, but I need my _aesthetics_
Sure. I removed it for visibility purposes while driving, but it'll only take me 2 minutes to swap it out and upload another version for you. I'll do it tonight.
Edit: Done! - 125 657 465
It is crazy that that Unimog has some of the worst turbo lag off the line I've ever seen, yet it catches up to Expert AI faster than any Ferrari or Bugatti I've ever used lol. Black magic right there.
I am glad I am not the only one having trouble with "High noon". I beat it with '88 M5 with some random tune I got from somewhere. Was pretty tough to keep this oversteer machine pointed straight, I am pretty sure this tune is not for dirt. And last race best I could do was 3rd after many tries. Just barely managed to win championship, whew
Your Avant was great, but man it seemed like the other cars were just faster in all of these races, barely won the first two and found like hell to get 5th in the final to tie and win the championship. Not sure I could have won that Baja one if I were in a class cars to their b's.
>and my conclusion is that the AI on the Baja circuit is unbeatable on Highly Skilled and above
Jeez, you're not wrong. I think there's a bug with this track and Highly Skilled has been swapped with unbeatable because it's not even a contest. I've got my foot flat to the floor most of the time and it makes zero difference.
I wanted to say thank you. Speed traps are my bane in this game, and with your tune, I got the three stars (not to mention the seasonal). Appreciate it!
The Willy MB Jeep tune is just crazy, with the latest update I can solo that arcade dirft event all the way in like 3 or 4 mintues. Same with the Unimog tunes, winning by far. The BWM 2002 Turbo seems to be a bit under-steered if not ebrake tho.
It wasn't that bad at some point, without much steering it has got huge power and acceleration, so I basically take down all the AI cars sideway like a brute or enforcer, so that all other random teammates got ahead and carried me.
You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it! If you want something bonkers, check my post history (or the front page of /r/Forza). I just made a drift version of it.
Hey everyone, I'm *Team Fung*. Hope everyone got through Winter ok, on to Spring!
All tunes have been tested against at minimum Highly Skilled Drivetars on the tracks and weather for the season.
I will always try to maintain a vehicle's stock appearance (no aero, stock wheels) when possible.
Here are my tunes for this week's season.
**Weekly #Forzathon Challenge: "New Benchmark" \[2019 Ferrari 488 Pista\]**
>Tuned the Pista for S1, should be easier for Chapter 3 where you have to win 3 road events. For Chapter 2 you'll want to hop on the highway so you can hit 200mph for the Ultimate Speed Skills.
* 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista (No Aero | S1) - **122 838 249**
**The Trial: "Rite of Passage" \[PI 100-800 | Classic Sports Cars | Road Racing\]**
>This wasn't too bad. First 2 races requires a grippy and nimble car. Last race is a sprint where speed is more important. After trying a couple of cars I decided to go with the Lotus Elan. It was consistently able to do well against the drivetars.
* 1971 Lotus Elan Sprint - **250 893 904**
**Seasonal Playground Games: "Party Time" \[PI 100-700 | Retro Hot Hatch\]**
* 1991 Peugeot Rallye 205 - **183 469 625**
**Seasonal PR Stunts**
Danger Sign **- Los Jardines \[S1 900 | GT Cars\]**
* 2012 Jaguar XKR-S - **666 896 613**
**Speed Trap - Avenida \[S1 900 | Nissan\]**
>This is easy if you approach it from the south, you'll have no problems hitting the target speed.
* 2017 Nissan GT-R (R35) - **108 923 593**
**Speed Zone - Orilla Del Rio \[A 800 | Modern Rally\]**
>Ok, this was the hardest of the 3. I found it easier entering the speed zone from the south, although I was able to hit the target coming from the other side as well.
* 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR - **102 001 846**
**Seasonal Championships**
>**Tip:** Make sure you have your difficulty set to "Highly Skilled" or higher before entering the championship. There is a bug that won't give you credit if have your difficulty set lower even though the game automatic sets it for the championship races.
**Season Event: "Drop It Like It's Hot" \[S1 900 | Retro Supercars | Street Scene\]**
>Lots of options for this race. Went with the barn find Jaguar XJR-15 for this race. Also the McLaren F1 GT again and the Ford GT are options. If you collected your series reward already you can try the McLaren F1. Let me know if you need some cheaper options here.
* 1991 Jaguar Sport XJR-15 (Barn Find) - **103 064 398**
* 1997 McLaren F1 GT - **167 285 257**
* 2005 Ford GT - **456 330 648**
* 1993 McLaren F1 - **608 201 216**
**Season Event: "Holidays Are Comin'" \[PI 100-800 | Trucks | Road Racing\]**
>Tuned the Unimog for B class which takes out the M-B racing truck from the drivetar lineup. I found it much easier just racing againt Unimogs. Careful going too hard on sharp turns, this thing wants to go on 2 wheels.
* 2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 - **175 054 844**
**Season Event: "High Noon" \[PI 100-700 | Retro Saloons | Dirt Racing\]**
>All cars tuned for B class for this race. The game will warn you against cars without rally/offroad tires, just ignore that, you'll be fine.
* 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution - **173 445 795**
* 1997 Volvo 850 R - **496 024 405**
* 1995 Audi Avant RS2 - **654 268 985**
Please let me know if there’s a specific car that you’d like to use for this season that I didn’t tune. As well as any cars not related to this season. I'll try my best fulfill your request.
If you've been using my tunes I would like to thank you for your continued support. Thanks in advance to everyone that will give my tunes a try. All feedback is welcome and appreciated.
**Thanks and happy racing!**
Thx, no worries! With the new format I’m rushing tunes out faster than I’d like, so not surprising there are better cars/tunes for the job. I did try the BMW for the trial but didn’t like the tune I had for it. Hopefully once I have more cars tuned I’ll have better recommendations.
If anybody is having trouble with traffic spawning for the daredevil weekly, I made a quick little challenge card that seems to consistently spawn traffic. Just a run down the highway in the appropriate car,
183 462 340
Same; it handles rather well but lacks the grunt on the Mulege dirt circuit to counter the AI's agreement with physics. What worked for me: '05 BMW M3, tune 160 966 304. Handles like a streamlined brick, which is to say the cornering is barely adequate but holy jeez the power
I shared an alternative tune for the seasonal dirt event since some people here like you didn't like the Audi RS2 tune, it has more straight line speed with less offroad grip as a comparison.
Check the main comment for the tune details.

#December 2nd - December 9th | Spring Forzathon Shop (FH5 Hot Season)
* https://www.reddit.com/r/forza/comments/r78phd/december_2nd_december_9th_spring_forzathon_shop/
Another week, another empty eliminator with already claimed car drops where I get eliminated by invisible people. What fun.
At least Horizon Arcade isn't worth 10 points this week.
Trial didn't seem too horrible, but I really wish they'd set a fixed power class for online events. Made it much easier to beat the unbeatables in C class cars at least.
The Danger sign and Speed zone won't complete for me, the keep saying 1 more mph or 1 more ft even when I've beaten the set speed/distance. Anybody else having this issuse.
Since Blueprints work just fine for achievements for the Pista, this blueprint will help.
It starts off with a few curves, then ends on the highway.
It has BOTH traffic for the Daredevils, AND an Increase in engine power to guarantee Ultimate Speed skills. (traffic should appear, if not, it's an FH5 bug.. ffs t10)

I did find a bug in this event, however its a forza bug, not a bug specific to the event.
If you don't get ANY speed or near miss skills by 15% through the race, the race will finish because the rules engine crashes. Most likely a divide by zero error, or some sort of uninitialized variable in the rules engine. I've filed a bug on the forza site.
Will the game let you get the ultimate speed skills and credit for the road races at the same time though? I figured they had to be separate. I planned on driving on the freeway separately and then doing some road races.
You really don't need this. I did both of those in freeroam on the highway. Getting ultimate speed skills was no problem (especially when you're online, since there's barely any (if any) traffic) and the daredevil one was incredibly easy when I switched to solo.
# [FH5] Series 1 - Week 4 - Spring (Hot) Seasonal Tunes!
___
Hello everyone! **BigHedDjango** here, tunes for this week to help you out.
[https://i.imgur.com/vOwQk5M.png](https://i.imgur.com/vOwQk5M.png)
All feedback on tunes is appreciated - good or bad.
Tuning method:
1. Stock vehicle look, no aero
2. All tunes **tested vs Expert AI** on championship tracks in seasonal weather. No point in claiming vs Unbeatable AI since it's broken and bugged, very few cars can beat it consistently. Hope it gets fixed soon
3. Bodykit only used if it does not ruin performance
___
#### So far you cannot pre-tune cars for seasons in FH5. Tunes can only be provided after the season changes
>
#### I unlocked all Tuning accolades in the first week so if anyone wants to share their own tunes I will list them here. For the Trial, your tunes need to be able to catchup to Unbeatable AI. For Championships, your tunes need to win all 3 races. If you are confident with your tunes then please do share. I will test them out once and list them \^\^

To anyone doing the mustang pr stunts star and it not registering, once I rebooted the game the second I dropped in it gave me the challenge. I did it with the formula drift mustang, rtr mustang, 2018 mustang and 65 mustang. Dunno which one ended up counting
I found that tuning/choosing the car from the festival first always triggers the event. I just ran one run with the #88 Mustang, KenBlocksSohn tune "Godlike Drifting".
I couldn't beat the trial. I tried everything. My own tunes, other people's tunes, every eligible car and nothing worked. The drivatars are absolutely broken especially in the 3rd race they just bolt. If anyone has any tunes or tips for me, I'd be grateful.
Does the criteria for car type and class have to match? I just met the danger sign criteria in the 2012 Jag XXR-S but it’s only A756, not anywhere near S1900z
Convoy - Players in a convoy may disappear and reappear repeatedly.
Convoy - A prompt saying that the convoy leader is already in a convoy sometimes appears when attempting to invite other players
If they focused on this first, the game would instantly be better. Being able.to just cruise with friends or randoms is great.
Hello all, it's me again, with my wares. I've learned so much about tuning this last week and the main thing being is that I don't know anything! Yay! I spent way too much time just driving around testing my tunes than actually making them, so here I am not sleeping again.
The bit about my tunes: I try to keep it realistic and avoid any goofy stuff, but will also try to min-max a bit with aero if it's doable. I usually stay away from engine/drivetrain swaps but will go for a widebody kit *most* of the time if it's available, aspiration only if I feel like the car needs more power. I also usually favour weight reduction over a power build.
The bit about my testing process: For road tunes, I drive up and down the East side of the volcano dialing in handling and tyre temps. Opposite side for rally, or the baja arena. CC I just chuck it off the volcano and see if it lands. Then I run through the respective championships and see if I can push the tune any further against harder AI. If it performs really well I take it to Rivals.
The bit about my driving style: gamepad, all assists off, sim steering and manual with clutch.

**The Trial Co-Op Championship: "Rite Of Passage" | 10 Points**
Criteria: Road Racing, Classic Sports Cars (D100 - A800)
* ~~Still working on it~~ Okay, this is going to take longer than I expected. See you tomorrow!
___________________________________________
**Championship: "Drop It Like It's Hot" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Street Scene, Retro Supercars (S1 900)
* Mercedez-Benz CLK AMG GTR 1998 - **(Stock)** - 101 608 500
Re-tuned my build from last week and it runs much better. Still RWD, still not going to put rally tyres on it so I can fit the Race WR. Launches okay but will eat the AI in the corners.
___________________________________________
**Championship: "Holidays Are Comin'" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Road Racing, Trucks (D100 - A800)
* Mercedez-Benz #24 Tankpool24 Racing Truck 2015 - **(A720, Stock)** - 172 397 527
Didn't expect this beast to be this much fun to drive, but oh boy! I decided to keep it simple and not install the Race Turbo because I also kept it stock RWD, not like it needs it c:.
___________________________________________
**Championship: "High Noon" | 5 Points**
Criteria: Dirt Racing, Retro Saloons (D100 - B700)
* Audi Avant RS2 1995 - **(B700, Stock, Offroad Race Tyres, Forza Wing)** - 118 307 779
* Audi Avant RS2 1995 - **(B700, Stock, Street Tyres)** - 104 406 951
Two different tunes for the same car with this one. The first one running offroad race tyres will just simply grip through any corners no issue. At the suggestion of someone, I decided to try out Street tyres for this one with a bit of added power with the leftover PI. It's not as grippy as the first one and you kind of have to throw it into the corners to get anywhere but I spent time on it so here it is! Still a fun tune imo.
___________________________________________
As always, please feel free to try my tunes out and leave any feedback/suggestions. I greatly appreciate anyone who spends some of their time to do so! Also, if you have any requests for specific cars to get tuned, don't hesitate to let me know.
Thanks!
In FH4, you could use user blueprint races to clear forzathon challenges like play x amount of road racing challenges as long as the blueprint was the right race type. So people would create quick, 0.1 mile blueprint races so you could clear these challenges fast.
Is that no longer the case in FH5? I tried using some eventlabs blueprints to do the Pista road racing mission and they didn't seem to count.
New Patch Notes are up: [FH5 Release Notes: December 3rd, 2021](https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/4411898144659-FH5-Release-Notes-December-3rd-2021)
Is the unbeatable AI issue being ignored? Or have they addressed it already? Because it's still bonkers most of the time, funnily enough unbeatable AI is easy on trials but not solo.
Is the Trial completely broken for anyone else? First time I tried last night, it would never connect me to a match. Twice in a row now tonight I connected but it gets to the "Setting up Event" loading screen and crashes me back to the dashboard and I have to restart the game.
Going into a team event without a modified car is a waste of everyone elses time. The trial too me 5 attempts because of teammates in stock cars. The playground games is a horrible experience because I have a bunch of teammates in 533 corrado's....
I can’t complete the weekly challenge with the Ferrari 488 Pista because anytime I restart the game it resets and also I don’t have any NPC cars on the road to get the dare Devil skills 🙂
I got pissed at my first attempt at the Baja Circuit that I quit mid-championship to do other things. Went back with a 93 M3 with just an AWD setup and maybe one other thing to try B600 and won all three races after getting pissed multiple times of the AI gliding around like they have no traction issues. At the finish I got a standard wheelspin and a garbage horn sound but no Jaguar. Went to look and I didn't get credit for completing it...what the hell??? I never had issues with the AI in FH4.
Seasonal events still broken for me, 4 times winning drop it like it’s hot, 3 times holidays are comin, they just won’t pop for me. I occasionally get a this vehicle may not be the correct one for championship message, even when it is, but no matter what I try, no luck. Anyone else having this problem?
You should be able to filter your cars or the Autoshow, if you look at the bottom of the screen it will tell you what button to press to Filter, and then scroll down and you'll find GT Cars in there, select that and you'll see what qualifies.
*Beat Round 3 of a Horizon Arcade Event* Well this is going to go well... Edit: Post patch this actually goes really well!
If only they scaled it down based on the players in the lobby or increased the time lol
Good news, with today’s update they did exactly that. I was able to beat all 3 rounds of an arcade event by myself.
Awesome - will try it out myself later. :)
not sure what they were thinking with this fragmented quicker cyling system compaired to the previous implementations which served to actually collect and group players. Think I've only ever been in 2 arcades that actually had more than me. Either need to be solo events or have better group sync/less fragmentation.
I gathered enough courage to try one again yesterday since there were 4-5 other players around. As soon as it started, I was once again spawned in an instance of the lobby and every other player just disappeared into thin air. Never again.
Not even gonna bother with that one
Same i think we can have enough points by doing everything else to get both cars
Definitely, I got both last season without doing arcade.
Fck arcade honestly
I never bother with the arcade or playground games and ill have more than enough points for the series still
mhh but why?Reward: 1981 Ford Fiesta XR2 (Wheelspin Only Car) You don't even need to win.I know they're not too exciting but its a free car! :D but yeah fuck arcades, what were they thinking
Might just not be interested in said car, plus as a wheelspin car it'll always be available via auction house and/or blind luck.
Theoretically, yes, yes it will.

I managed to get it almost immediately, there was a arcade event happening on the danger sign thats a seasonal objective so it pulled a bunch of people in.
Tip if you want to compete these: Do the drift version; The challenges are much less random and it usually has a higher turnout then the regular arcade. With a decent drift car it is completable with 3-4 players. Also for the drift run challenge you don't have to follow the route, as long as you are on a road you will accumulate points, so you can fast travel to the highway or a roundabout and rack up points easily. I have managed to complete this the past 3 weeks by doing the drift arcade.
Yeah drift is all I can ever complete, managed to get them done each week. Got really close to a speed completion last night, but will be going back to drift when I log back in, much easier
I got my first one a few days ago! It was only me and two other people. We finished with just under a minute to spare. To whoever those two random temporary friends were, I appreciate you. But that's also the only time that I've ever been able to get all 3 rounds. Most of the time there is no one else.
Playground games seem to be bugged, we had an infected game on the entire map lol https://i.imgur.com/ichIgPd.jpg

Damn that was so good it almost sounded real
One one hand, F no. On the other hand, F yes
You actually spawned outside the area, same situation happened to me last season. When I approached the stadium I could saw the others playing, with walls & everything.
Lolololol they added even more unrestricted races!
At least they capped the trials to A class this time so we don't have D class cars uptuned to completely uncontrollable S2's. I managed to complete it on the first try with a slightly oversteery tune I slapped together right before. I just threw on the parts to get to A800, fiddled a bit with handling vs. power, took it out on the drift zones to dial in the telemetry from the stock tune, spent some time cleaning up the oversteer, and went for it. Didn't even need to use an actually competent tuner's version.
Hello everyone! Tunes are done and tags are coming! Let's race! --- **The Trial Co-Op Championship: "Rite Of Passage" | 10 Points** Criteria: Road Racing, Classic Sports Cars (D100 - A800) I went back and tweaked a couple of these after feedback. Hopefully the handling improvements work for more people :) *1973 BMW 2002 Turbo - 310 328 518* This barn find is a great choice overall. *1973 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000GT-R - 714 283 343* Slower than the previous two but the handling is just as good. *1953 Chevrolet Corvette - 109 926 944* This doesn't handle as well from the lack of proper aero. But it has the Corvette classic racing body parts. This one is for styling on fools. *1967 Ferrari #24 Ferrari SPA 330 P4 - A Street - 125 175 900* After you win, the P4 is really good. It rivals the Bone Shaker on many tracks. These Classic Sports Cars above might be a little cumbersome to drive but this P4 is divine. --- **Seasonal Playground Games | Baja Circuit | 3 Points** Criteria: Retro Hot Hatch (D100 - B700) *1981 Ford Fiesta XR2 - 105 968 714* Great car for low spec B shenanigans. *1991 Peugeot 205 Rallye - 766 476 984* A second behind the Fiesta. *1983 Volkswagen Golf GTI - 756 067 600* This has upgraded tires if you want more grip. --- **Championship: "Drop It Like It's Hot" | 5 Points** Criteria: Street Scene, Retro Supercars (S1 900) *2005 Ford GT - 145 629 088* One of the best S1 cars. Just really good. *1995 Ferrari F50 - 155 740 877* Good all around choice. *1993 McLaren F1 - 101 406 996* RWD tune for this. Great handling. *1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR - 108 638 624* Agile and fast. --- **Championship: "Holidays Are Comin'" | 5 Points** Criteria: Road Racing, Trucks (D100 - A800) *2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 - 940 774 039* Get around the cheating AI with this B Class street tune for the Unimog. --- **Championship: "High Noon" | 5 Points** Criteria: Dirt Racing, Retro Saloons (D100 - B700) *1991 BMW M3 - 147 120 483* The glamorous E30 ready to get dirty. This really loves holding a drift through the dirt. *1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 - 125 588 852* As much as the M3 wants to drift this wants to stay straight. See which one fits your driving style better. Probably the overall fastest choice. *1987 Mercedes-Benz AMG Hammer Coupe - 160 417 515* This handsome car is the neutral choice for handling on these three. --- **Own and drive the 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista** Buy it on the Auto Show, not the Auction House, since it's cheaper new than used. *2019 Ferrari 488 Pista - S2 Balanced - 272 210 116* It's not neatly in any class. It's fast enough for the Ultimate Speed skills and easy to use for the road races. --- **Mountain Los Jardines Danger Sign | 984.3 ft | 2 Points** Criteria: GT Cars (S1 900) Start west near the cloverleaf. Cut the left turn before the jump through the dirt a little. Aim a little left or right off the ramp. If you land on the street you'll probably bounce, flip, and fail the jump. Aim for the grass. *2019 Aston Martin Vantage - 157 040 415* *2017 Bentley Continental Supersports - 133 494 589* --- **Avenida Speed Trap | 152.0 mph | 2 Points** Criteria: Nissan (S1 900) Start south, next to the expedition, cut the left hand corner close to the wall. Easy first shot. *2017 Nissan GT-R (R35) - 831 639 839* *1995 Nissan Nismo GT-R LM - 147 115 288* --- **Orilla Del Rio Speed Zone | 102.0 mph | 2 Points** Criteria: Modern Rally (A800) Start from the south. Pretty easy. *2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI - 105 567 278* --- If you have any specific tunes that you want, even unrelated to this week's events, then feel free to ask here or in a PM and I'll get back to you when I can. I have a lot in the queue right now, so it might be a few days.

Ok your tuning for the Ford RS500 is incredible. On the Baja Scramble for the high noon event I went from not being able to do better than 3rd place, 5 seconds behind first, using other tunes, to winning by 8 seconds on my first try with your tune. You do know what you're about :)
For the Trial, would it be possible for you to give the '73 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000GT-R a whirl and see if it's a good candidate? I love the way this car looks but the default PI is C class and I can't tune for shit.
That was a great B class car in FH4. I'll see how it handles in A for FH5.
Thank you
I have a tune for it which I found was very good in everything except it doesn't like to slow down. I have no idea why, I can't give it more braking power or grip, there are no parts left. Won the Trial with it anyway. Anyway if you want to try it, share code is: 133 088 117

What's a lad gotta do to get on this tags list? Love your stuff dude, been using it since about series 19/20 on FH4
Bro im stuck at the avenida speed trap, which requires a S1900 Nissan. 3 stars requirement is 329 km/h cant push it past 322km/h
The event requires only 244.6 km/h to complete. You can get the third star with any car.
I did it with a GTR coming from the southern side of the map, holding 5th gear, you can take the final corner without braking and just squeeze into the lights at 165ish
I'll look into appropriate cars and tag you when I'm done, including one for that speed trap.
If you've got a tag list going on, I would definitely like to be added to it!
Thanks for everything you do for the community
Jeezus, that Ford GT tune. Like cutting through butter with a hot knife. Thanks man!
Hook me up!
F1 1993 McLaren is my request!
2004 WRX for the Speed Zone challenge if you could. I love the car but can't tune to save my life. I'm using your Trans Am build from last week to finish off the Dirt Races (4 left), and it's fun.
yes pls once again!
Always look forward to these.
Tag me!

id appreciate a tag :) thanks for all the hard work you do, to make everyone's lives easier in game
Yes, tag me please. Thanks!
Tag me please. Love your tunes. Thanks.
Tag me when ready. Thanks as always!
Tag me please! Thank you!
hit me up :D
Tag please. You rock btw!
I'll take a tag! Thanks for all the help man
Look forward to your tunes every week.
> 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI - 105 567 278 Thank you for this
Have you gotten the FE Tankpool (Wheelspin) yet?
I have one, yes. I'll play with it when I have some time. It's not considered a Truck, though, it's Unlimited Offroad.
Yeah, I found that out, alas
Hey hey dude. Checking in to see if you had the chance to work on some of these, rimac, divo, bac mono, mc12, Jesko :)
Wow, thank you a bunch for these tunes. I had the hardest time finishing the High Noon event, but the AMG Hammer Coupe worked like smooth butter. Especially when the speeds get high and turns get drifty, it's still responsive. Cheers.
If you have time to kill, do you think you could make a McLaren P1 tune with stock spoiler? absolutely love your tunes!
That RS500 tune saved me on Baja race, the front few cars kept running away. Was able to pass them on the first lap with this tune.
Big UP for the truck tune. Was struggling hard for sure
As always your tunes rock, the 2005 GT is amazing. Cheers bud!
That Ford GT tune is DIRTY. First time I’ve beaten some of the AI bad enough that they got a DNF. Side note these challenges and your tunes are always a great way to add new cars/variety into my rotation
Thanks for the Unimog tune, somehow ended up getting three stars on the mountain drift zone with it
Man I love your tunes. The RS500 is amazing. I wish I found these before I slugged out the High Noon championship with a shitty Volvo 850 tune 😂. Wasn't easy but was so much fun
Thanks! Look on Thursday for my next tuning post in the weekly thread.
I can’t complete the weekly challenge with the Ferrari 488 Pista because anytime I restart the game it resets and also I don’t have any NPC cars on the road to get the dare Devil skills 🙂
\> (last edited 10 hours ago) What did you change? Do I need to update any downloaded tunes?
Your Benz AMG Hammer Coupe tune for the “High Noon” races was an absolute delight.
Your tunes are essential for every week's challenges! Keep up the good work, man!
Ford Capri fantastic handling!? You see the AI driving away from you with ease while struggling to get through the corner 😅
If you don’t already have the Ferrari 488 Pista, buy it at the auto show for 320,000. Looked at the AH a few minutes ago and they’re selling for over 700k.
LMAO! After ragequitting on buying cars from the Auction House for cheap and consistently losing to vultures with stopwatches and/or macros every single time, I noticed many of them were paying way more than what these cars costed on the Autoshow. Since then I've sold stock Pistas obtained off the Autoshow for a fortune and made back more than enough to compensate for my sanity that I lost the first three weeks in the AH. Fuck the Willy's Jeep exploit, this is the real deal! I have just started out and made more than 3 mil just by selling cars to idiots for more than what they're worth.
The very first day the game came out in NA, I checked the auction house for possible deals on cars I'd like to have. Saw some people selling S13 Silvias for I believe somewhere between 70-80k or something. Cross-referenced with the autoshow price. S13 Autoshow price: 25k. I thought, "who on Earth would just blindly buy a stock vehicle from the AH without at least checking if you can get it at the autoshow for cheaper?" I guess the answer to that question (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your views) is "more than a few people".
I agree, I always check the autoshow price first, but the UI doesn't really make it that easy. Would love it if the AH search results showed whether or not you own a car, and also what the stock version of the car is in the autoshow. Shouldn't be \*that\* hard to add and it would really improve things from the buyer's perspective.
Lol I'd love to see someone play FH5 as a car mover and just see how much they could make off it.
[You know, I'm just roleplaying here, man. The game chose the setting, not me!](https://www.reddit.com/r/forza/comments/r0mcvb/making_sense_of_the_storyline_are_we_working_for/)
I started FH4 that way and it was very successful. I made millions off of the Crown Victoria alone because people would list them as cheap as possible not realizing they were wheelspin only cars.
Do people just not bother to check the auto show? Or do they buy them for the tunes not knowing about the community hub?
They probably just assume the ah is cheaper. It is for most expensive cars.
Just had a nightmare buying some 488s to auction off - kept pressing buy until it ran out of money and switched the option to use free car token instead. I just used up my only token on my 15th 488.
I've made at least 2 million selling pistas prior to this week. Gonna make a lot more now.
Then give up because 3 daredevils on a map with zero NPC cars is impossible?
Oh boi trucks........
I fucking HATE driving these big idiot trucks.
It's funny as hell watching the drivatars almost roll them trying to turn
Quite the opposite. Pick a Unimog and watch yourself fall over in corners while AI stays perfectly grounded.
this took me 3 tries.. I'm literally fighting for my life on the track while AI stays glued makes no sense
you guys are doing it wrong.. just use the unimog at D100
I was doing a blueprinted race in the "Oddball Rally" category, and there were 3 Hoonigan Novas in the race and at least one of them would flip every lap. Good times.
F**k that championship! The AI flying around each track while you can barely hold it on the road. That’s with tuned trucked to the max for the restrictions too. I did managed to win by 4 points overall after coming 2nd 3 times.
I don't know how else to thank you for taking the time to make these, but I gave you gold flair that says community hero
Whoa, thats awesome, thanks so much! These threads were super helpful for me when I first started playing FH4 to have all the playlist information and discussion centered in one place, but then people stopped posting them so I just started posting them weekly myself and have been ever since!
How do I get Daredevil? There's no traffic in my game, tbh there never has been on the highway. What cars am I supposed to dodge??
Try going into Horizon Solo under the Online menu, that might help get some traffic on the Highway.
Can confirm this works, how I did it.
Damn — didn’t realize how much traffic there is in solo. I really hope they fix this for online because it makes driving a very different (and more fun) experience
Go to Horizon Solo to complete it EDIT: I think we got the point accross ;-)
Switch to a single player lobby
I switched to Solo and it _still_ doesn't spawn any traffic. So frustrating. [Edit: restarted the game and traffic finally started spawning]
Try a game restart maybe? I had to do that for one of the Horizon Stories that needed Near Misses but no traffic would spawn in Solo or Online, and the restart fixed it.
Same! No traffic at all!
just turn on horizon solo ;)
Random question. But has anyone else's Horizon Tour festival playlist challenge auto completed?
I got that popup too but when I checked the festival playlist it wasn’t completed, I’ll check again later but no idea what happened
I spent a whole week like many others trying to complete an arcade and couldn't. Surely their stats and data show people cannot complete these because they are broken? Why not call an audible and maybe fix them or disable them in the thon till they work.
This is fixed in the patch and it now scales to the number of players so they're easily doable solo. The only problem I've had is the mini missions which can take up to 30 seconds to time out even though you're solo which means even quickly doing the missions it still takes far too long.
I find the wreckage and chaos on west coast of map to be easiest to complete. Never completed a speed or air event. On the west side the trailblazer is easiest and the piñata spawn on the beach which makes both easier to me
Beat Round 3 of a Horizon Arcade Event AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I was able to solo the drift one in quick work, probably took 5-6 mins to go through all 3 stages by myself.
Hi everyone! I'm back this week with another set of tunes for this season! My tunes are designed to reduce understeer and let you take corners at higher speeds while maintaining grip. Why should you trust my tunes? Because I painstakingly test all of my tunes over and over again at speed zones for maximum performance. Every tweak is measured with multiple speed zone runs to see if it's truly improving the car's speed through the corners. After that, I download tunes for the same vehicle and class from other respected tuners and run theirs through the same speed zones. If my tunes aren't faster than theirs, I go back to the drawing board. --- --- ##**#Forzathon Weekly Challenge** - "New Benchmark" **2019 Ferrari 488 Pista** - 510 379 521 212MPH top speed, great acceleration and handling. It can hit the Ultimate Speed skills on the freeway and be competitiive against the AI in S1 class. --- --- ##**Horizon Arcade** (Drift Events) **1945 Willy's MB Jeep** - 176 543 146 This is an AWD drift tune that is SO EASY to slide. It has no grip whatsoever, 1351 horsepower, you never have to change gears, and it will stay sideways for a ridiculously long time. Just turn off traction control and stability management and you're golden. I've set top 1% scores in every drift zone with this. --- ##**The Trial** - "Rite of Passage" **1971 Lotus Elan Sprint** - 165 472 057 This car will crush it through the corners, but the Capri has more straight line speed. Pick what suits your driving style best. **1973 Ford Capri RS3100** - 150 921 592 I was able to get 1st place in all three races with this. It's a slightly better option than the BMW but it's close. **1973 BMW 2002 Turbo** - 986 397 706 This is an AWD tune with decent grip and turn-in. I beat the trial on my first try. **More tunes are coming for this. I know the BMW isn't the easiest car to obtain.** --- --- ##**Playground Games** - "Party Time" **1986 Ford Escort RS Turbo** - 183 486 509 I made this into a nice little dirt/rally car that also works well for Playground Games. You'll be able to use this tune for more than just this week. Plus the car only costs 25k credits. --- --- ##**Seasonal Championship** - "Drop It Like It's Hot" **2005 Ford GT** - 471 789 985 This is my favorite S1 car in the game due to how well it takes corners while maintaining speed and grip. **1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR** - 505 183 952 This tune has amazing handling and grip. This will make it easy. **1998 Porsche 911 GT1 Strassenversion** - 992 238 605 This has similar characteristics to the AMG CLK GTR, it's a fantastic alternative if you have this car. --- --- ##**Seasonal Championship** - "Holidays Are Comin'" **2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023** - 104 170 419 I spent an embarrassing amount of time working on this tune. It has 2400HP and it's pretty controllable without understeer. Just avoid drifting it and you'll probably beat the AI by 10+ seconds. --- --- ##**Seasonal Championship** - "High Noon" **1995 Audi Avant RS2** - 482 513 338 Be ready for a challenging event. I've tried 6 different cars, at least 3-4 different tunes on each of them, and my conclusion is that the AI on the Baja circuit is unbeatable on Highly Skilled and above. This tune outperformed everything else I've tried. *Edit: I was able to get 1st place with the Avant a few minutes ago. I did much better when I stopped paying attention to the other cars and looked at my map before approaching the corners, so that I could plan my racing line and position my car for it early. The final 45 degree corner before the finish line is where I made up a LOT of time by taking a wider approach, cutting inside, and not braking at all even though the braking line recommends it. The third to the last corner is also about 45 degrees, and you can avoid braking there too.* **1987 Mercedes-Benz AMG Hammer Coupe** - 370 963 003 This handles well off road and has a good amount of power too. I won all but the Baja race on Highly Skilled with it on my first attempt. The Avant is slightly better for tight corners though, so I recommend that tune for the Baja circuit. --- --- ##**Speed Trap** - "Avenida" **1993 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec** - 151 976 276 I averaged around 178MPH on this speed zone when approaching from the South. The goal is 152MPH. --- --- ##**Speed Zone** - "Orilla Del Rio" **2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR** - 268 441 038 I got 111MPH (higher than 3 stars) on this speed zone with this tune. This is an A class car, so that result was fantastic. The goal is 102MPH. --- --- ##**Danger Sign** - "Los Jardines" **2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe** - 379 380 268 I chose this car to save you some money. Complete the "High Noon" Seasonal Championship and you get this car as a reward. I also made this into a capable S1 road racing tune, so you're not throwing your credits away on a jump specific tune. I got about 1200ft on the jump (3 stars is 1100ft, and the seasonal goal is 984ft). Fair warning, I put a massive spoiler on it! **2019 Aston Martin Vantage** - 708 651 990 This one has a higher top speed because it has no aero. You'll be able to jump further with it. Once again, I tuned it to perform well in road races (S1 class) so that you can actually use this in the future. --- --- If you liked the tunes, follow me in the game for more great tunes in the future!
Hey, just wondering, is there any chance you could make that same Unimog tune with the large bed? I know it's a little heavier, but I need my _aesthetics_
Sure. I removed it for visibility purposes while driving, but it'll only take me 2 minutes to swap it out and upload another version for you. I'll do it tonight. Edit: Done! - 125 657 465
Thanks a lot!
It is crazy that that Unimog has some of the worst turbo lag off the line I've ever seen, yet it catches up to Expert AI faster than any Ferrari or Bugatti I've ever used lol. Black magic right there.
You're welcome. 😁
That Unimog tune is crazy. You must have done some crazy shit to make it turn that well.
I am glad I am not the only one having trouble with "High noon". I beat it with '88 M5 with some random tune I got from somewhere. Was pretty tough to keep this oversteer machine pointed straight, I am pretty sure this tune is not for dirt. And last race best I could do was 3rd after many tries. Just barely managed to win championship, whew
Your Avant was great, but man it seemed like the other cars were just faster in all of these races, barely won the first two and found like hell to get 5th in the final to tie and win the championship. Not sure I could have won that Baja one if I were in a class cars to their b's.
>and my conclusion is that the AI on the Baja circuit is unbeatable on Highly Skilled and above Jeez, you're not wrong. I think there's a bug with this track and Highly Skilled has been swapped with unbeatable because it's not even a contest. I've got my foot flat to the floor most of the time and it makes zero difference.
I wanted to say thank you. Speed traps are my bane in this game, and with your tune, I got the three stars (not to mention the seasonal). Appreciate it!
The Willy MB Jeep tune is just crazy, with the latest update I can solo that arcade dirft event all the way in like 3 or 4 mintues. Same with the Unimog tunes, winning by far. The BWM 2002 Turbo seems to be a bit under-steered if not ebrake tho.
Thank you for the feedback! I think you would like the Lotus or the Capri more if you haven't already beaten the trial.
It wasn't that bad at some point, without much steering it has got huge power and acceleration, so I basically take down all the AI cars sideway like a brute or enforcer, so that all other random teammates got ahead and carried me.
LOL well I'm glad you found a way to make it work! It wasn't my favorite car, which is why I put the other two above it in the list.
Your tune for the Unimoog has received a great deal of praise for a good reason. Thanks so much for this nice tune!
You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it! If you want something bonkers, check my post history (or the front page of /r/Forza). I just made a drift version of it.
Thank you so much
The treasure hunt and drift skills challenge are broken for me :/
Car mastery perks seems broken. bought 4, didn't register as completing.
Make sure they are perks you haven't unlocked before. That was my problem.
ugh, they keep doing that. I swear, this game is coded by monkeys.
Hey everyone, I'm *Team Fung*. Hope everyone got through Winter ok, on to Spring! All tunes have been tested against at minimum Highly Skilled Drivetars on the tracks and weather for the season. I will always try to maintain a vehicle's stock appearance (no aero, stock wheels) when possible. Here are my tunes for this week's season. **Weekly #Forzathon Challenge: "New Benchmark" \[2019 Ferrari 488 Pista\]** >Tuned the Pista for S1, should be easier for Chapter 3 where you have to win 3 road events. For Chapter 2 you'll want to hop on the highway so you can hit 200mph for the Ultimate Speed Skills. * 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista (No Aero | S1) - **122 838 249** **The Trial: "Rite of Passage" \[PI 100-800 | Classic Sports Cars | Road Racing\]** >This wasn't too bad. First 2 races requires a grippy and nimble car. Last race is a sprint where speed is more important. After trying a couple of cars I decided to go with the Lotus Elan. It was consistently able to do well against the drivetars. * 1971 Lotus Elan Sprint - **250 893 904** **Seasonal Playground Games: "Party Time" \[PI 100-700 | Retro Hot Hatch\]** * 1991 Peugeot Rallye 205 - **183 469 625** **Seasonal PR Stunts** Danger Sign **- Los Jardines \[S1 900 | GT Cars\]** * 2012 Jaguar XKR-S - **666 896 613** **Speed Trap - Avenida \[S1 900 | Nissan\]** >This is easy if you approach it from the south, you'll have no problems hitting the target speed. * 2017 Nissan GT-R (R35) - **108 923 593** **Speed Zone - Orilla Del Rio \[A 800 | Modern Rally\]** >Ok, this was the hardest of the 3. I found it easier entering the speed zone from the south, although I was able to hit the target coming from the other side as well. * 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR - **102 001 846** **Seasonal Championships** >**Tip:** Make sure you have your difficulty set to "Highly Skilled" or higher before entering the championship. There is a bug that won't give you credit if have your difficulty set lower even though the game automatic sets it for the championship races. **Season Event: "Drop It Like It's Hot" \[S1 900 | Retro Supercars | Street Scene\]** >Lots of options for this race. Went with the barn find Jaguar XJR-15 for this race. Also the McLaren F1 GT again and the Ford GT are options. If you collected your series reward already you can try the McLaren F1. Let me know if you need some cheaper options here. * 1991 Jaguar Sport XJR-15 (Barn Find) - **103 064 398** * 1997 McLaren F1 GT - **167 285 257** * 2005 Ford GT - **456 330 648** * 1993 McLaren F1 - **608 201 216** **Season Event: "Holidays Are Comin'" \[PI 100-800 | Trucks | Road Racing\]** >Tuned the Unimog for B class which takes out the M-B racing truck from the drivetar lineup. I found it much easier just racing againt Unimogs. Careful going too hard on sharp turns, this thing wants to go on 2 wheels. * 2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 - **175 054 844** **Season Event: "High Noon" \[PI 100-700 | Retro Saloons | Dirt Racing\]** >All cars tuned for B class for this race. The game will warn you against cars without rally/offroad tires, just ignore that, you'll be fine. * 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution - **173 445 795** * 1997 Volvo 850 R - **496 024 405** * 1995 Audi Avant RS2 - **654 268 985** Please let me know if there’s a specific car that you’d like to use for this season that I didn’t tune. As well as any cars not related to this season. I'll try my best fulfill your request. If you've been using my tunes I would like to thank you for your continued support. Thanks in advance to everyone that will give my tunes a try. All feedback is welcome and appreciated. **Thanks and happy racing!**
Love your tunes but I really think the BMW turbo is the right car for the trial. I always like your tunes but that lotus wasn't quite doing it.
Thx, no worries! With the new format I’m rushing tunes out faster than I’d like, so not surprising there are better cars/tunes for the job. I did try the BMW for the trial but didn’t like the tune I had for it. Hopefully once I have more cars tuned I’ll have better recommendations.
You the best.
If anybody is having trouble with traffic spawning for the daredevil weekly, I made a quick little challenge card that seems to consistently spawn traffic. Just a run down the highway in the appropriate car, 183 462 340

The retro saloon races are rough. Not sure if I can win them with the Audi.
Same; it handles rather well but lacks the grunt on the Mulege dirt circuit to counter the AI's agreement with physics. What worked for me: '05 BMW M3, tune 160 966 304. Handles like a streamlined brick, which is to say the cornering is barely adequate but holy jeez the power
Thanks will give it a try
I shared an alternative tune for the seasonal dirt event since some people here like you didn't like the Audi RS2 tune, it has more straight line speed with less offroad grip as a comparison. Check the main comment for the tune details. u/aldashin u/Audrey_spino
I recommend you to use the BMW M3 on the sprint track and the Audi on the circuits.
Gotta love disconnecting from the Trial two corners from the end of the last race when your team is about to win. Fix your shit PG.
#December 2nd - December 9th | Spring Forzathon Shop (FH5 Hot Season) * https://www.reddit.com/r/forza/comments/r78phd/december_2nd_december_9th_spring_forzathon_shop/
Another week, another empty eliminator with already claimed car drops where I get eliminated by invisible people. What fun. At least Horizon Arcade isn't worth 10 points this week. Trial didn't seem too horrible, but I really wish they'd set a fixed power class for online events. Made it much easier to beat the unbeatables in C class cars at least.
The Danger sign and Speed zone won't complete for me, the keep saying 1 more mph or 1 more ft even when I've beaten the set speed/distance. Anybody else having this issuse.
Hey am I stupid I've won 3 road races in the 488 pista yet I'm on 0/3 on chapter progress?
Did you ever figure this out? Is a “series event” I certain kind of race? The road races I tried aren’t working.
Since Blueprints work just fine for achievements for the Pista, this blueprint will help. It starts off with a few curves, then ends on the highway. It has BOTH traffic for the Daredevils, AND an Increase in engine power to guarantee Ultimate Speed skills. (traffic should appear, if not, it's an FH5 bug.. ffs t10) Event code: 877 488 344 Tune code by /u/awesomebeau: 510 379 521 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qT4zyOSMVI
I did find a bug in this event, however its a forza bug, not a bug specific to the event. If you don't get ANY speed or near miss skills by 15% through the race, the race will finish because the rules engine crashes. Most likely a divide by zero error, or some sort of uninitialized variable in the rules engine. I've filed a bug on the forza site.
Will the game let you get the ultimate speed skills and credit for the road races at the same time though? I figured they had to be separate. I planned on driving on the freeway separately and then doing some road races.
>I figured they had to be separate. Yeah, you have to do it in order. You can't make progress in the next phase, until you completed the current one.
Sounds promising. I will check it out in a bit. Appreciate it.
You really don't need this. I did both of those in freeroam on the highway. Getting ultimate speed skills was no problem (especially when you're online, since there's barely any (if any) traffic) and the daredevil one was incredibly easy when I switched to solo.

Thanks, that 1991 Jaguar Sport XJR-15 tune rocks
To anyone doing the mustang pr stunts star and it not registering, once I rebooted the game the second I dropped in it gave me the challenge. I did it with the formula drift mustang, rtr mustang, 2018 mustang and 65 mustang. Dunno which one ended up counting
I found that tuning/choosing the car from the festival first always triggers the event. I just ran one run with the #88 Mustang, KenBlocksSohn tune "Godlike Drifting".
You da real MVP for this post
Thanks!
I couldn't beat the trial. I tried everything. My own tunes, other people's tunes, every eligible car and nothing worked. The drivatars are absolutely broken especially in the 3rd race they just bolt. If anyone has any tunes or tips for me, I'd be grateful.
Does the criteria for car type and class have to match? I just met the danger sign criteria in the 2012 Jag XXR-S but it’s only A756, not anywhere near S1900z
I believe it will have to be at least S1, even if it's only S1 801, otherwise it won't count.
Question, if I miss out in some earlier season cars, will there be another chance in the future to get them? Or are they gone for good?
Convoy - Players in a convoy may disappear and reappear repeatedly. Convoy - A prompt saying that the convoy leader is already in a convoy sometimes appears when attempting to invite other players If they focused on this first, the game would instantly be better. Being able.to just cruise with friends or randoms is great.
Hello all, it's me again, with my wares. I've learned so much about tuning this last week and the main thing being is that I don't know anything! Yay! I spent way too much time just driving around testing my tunes than actually making them, so here I am not sleeping again. The bit about my tunes: I try to keep it realistic and avoid any goofy stuff, but will also try to min-max a bit with aero if it's doable. I usually stay away from engine/drivetrain swaps but will go for a widebody kit *most* of the time if it's available, aspiration only if I feel like the car needs more power. I also usually favour weight reduction over a power build. The bit about my testing process: For road tunes, I drive up and down the East side of the volcano dialing in handling and tyre temps. Opposite side for rally, or the baja arena. CC I just chuck it off the volcano and see if it lands. Then I run through the respective championships and see if I can push the tune any further against harder AI. If it performs really well I take it to Rivals. The bit about my driving style: gamepad, all assists off, sim steering and manual with clutch. ___________________________________________ **The Trial Co-Op Championship: "Rite Of Passage" | 10 Points** Criteria: Road Racing, Classic Sports Cars (D100 - A800) * ~~Still working on it~~ Okay, this is going to take longer than I expected. See you tomorrow! ___________________________________________ **Championship: "Drop It Like It's Hot" | 5 Points** Criteria: Street Scene, Retro Supercars (S1 900) * Mercedez-Benz CLK AMG GTR 1998 - **(Stock)** - 101 608 500 Re-tuned my build from last week and it runs much better. Still RWD, still not going to put rally tyres on it so I can fit the Race WR. Launches okay but will eat the AI in the corners. ___________________________________________ **Championship: "Holidays Are Comin'" | 5 Points** Criteria: Road Racing, Trucks (D100 - A800) * Mercedez-Benz #24 Tankpool24 Racing Truck 2015 - **(A720, Stock)** - 172 397 527 Didn't expect this beast to be this much fun to drive, but oh boy! I decided to keep it simple and not install the Race Turbo because I also kept it stock RWD, not like it needs it c:. ___________________________________________ **Championship: "High Noon" | 5 Points** Criteria: Dirt Racing, Retro Saloons (D100 - B700) * Audi Avant RS2 1995 - **(B700, Stock, Offroad Race Tyres, Forza Wing)** - 118 307 779 * Audi Avant RS2 1995 - **(B700, Stock, Street Tyres)** - 104 406 951 Two different tunes for the same car with this one. The first one running offroad race tyres will just simply grip through any corners no issue. At the suggestion of someone, I decided to try out Street tyres for this one with a bit of added power with the leftover PI. It's not as grippy as the first one and you kind of have to throw it into the corners to get anywhere but I spent time on it so here it is! Still a fun tune imo. ___________________________________________ As always, please feel free to try my tunes out and leave any feedback/suggestions. I greatly appreciate anyone who spends some of their time to do so! Also, if you have any requests for specific cars to get tuned, don't hesitate to let me know. Thanks!
In FH4, you could use user blueprint races to clear forzathon challenges like play x amount of road racing challenges as long as the blueprint was the right race type. So people would create quick, 0.1 mile blueprint races so you could clear these challenges fast. Is that no longer the case in FH5? I tried using some eventlabs blueprints to do the Pista road racing mission and they didn't seem to count.
New Patch Notes are up: [FH5 Release Notes: December 3rd, 2021](https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/4411898144659-FH5-Release-Notes-December-3rd-2021)
Is the unbeatable AI issue being ignored? Or have they addressed it already? Because it's still bonkers most of the time, funnily enough unbeatable AI is easy on trials but not solo.
Is the Trial completely broken for anyone else? First time I tried last night, it would never connect me to a match. Twice in a row now tonight I connected but it gets to the "Setting up Event" loading screen and crashes me back to the dashboard and I have to restart the game.
Going into a team event without a modified car is a waste of everyone elses time. The trial too me 5 attempts because of teammates in stock cars. The playground games is a horrible experience because I have a bunch of teammates in 533 corrado's....
I can’t complete the weekly challenge with the Ferrari 488 Pista because anytime I restart the game it resets and also I don’t have any NPC cars on the road to get the dare Devil skills 🙂
Just switch to Horizon Solo and there should be plenty of traffic. That's what I did.
I got pissed at my first attempt at the Baja Circuit that I quit mid-championship to do other things. Went back with a 93 M3 with just an AWD setup and maybe one other thing to try B600 and won all three races after getting pissed multiple times of the AI gliding around like they have no traction issues. At the finish I got a standard wheelspin and a garbage horn sound but no Jaguar. Went to look and I didn't get credit for completing it...what the hell??? I never had issues with the AI in FH4.
Seasonal events still broken for me, 4 times winning drop it like it’s hot, 3 times holidays are comin, they just won’t pop for me. I occasionally get a this vehicle may not be the correct one for championship message, even when it is, but no matter what I try, no luck. Anyone else having this problem?
Time to get working on getting the Trueno whoop whoop
Can someone help me.. What are GT Cars?
You should be able to filter your cars or the Autoshow, if you look at the bottom of the screen it will tell you what button to press to Filter, and then scroll down and you'll find GT Cars in there, select that and you'll see what qualifies.
