PLAYLIST POINTS
Points are accumulated across all four seasons. Each event in the Festival Playlist has a number of points to earn noted in the bottom left corner of the event tile. Accumulate points with any combination of completed events to earn the first reward car, and continue earning points from remaining events to earn the second reward car. Cars noted as Seasonal Exclusive are not available in the Autoshow, so grab them while you can! But don’t worry if you miss them, these cars may come back again for future Festival Playlists.
Completing these events earn seasonal points plus Forzathon Points (FP) which can be used in the Forzathon Shop.

SEASON EVENT DETAILS
Toggle the menu to show the rewards and restrictions for each event - if you complete the event in a car outside the restrictions or fail to meet the target, you won’t get the reward and points from completion. You must have unlocked the Hall of Fame with Accolade points to enter the Trial. Access to Hot Wheels events requires the Hot Wheels Expansion DLC; users without the DLC will still be able to gold the season and unlock the “Min, Meet Max” Achievement without these event points.

Forzathon Weekly Challenge
2002 Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type-A (S1 900) SC-521 847 755
Everyone has to drive it…I kept mine rotary powered!
Trial
“Circuit Control” B700 Japan
1985 Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT Apex (B700) SC-168 496 992
1992 Nissan Silvia Club K’s (B700) SC-939 708 858
Both are great options but I personally prefer the AE86! Sorry about the ugly forza aero on the Trueno…it just drives better. My husband has an AE86 IRL and he wasn’t amused!
Eventlabs: B700 Japan
“Vukkuu Imperial Circuit”, “Puanke Hill Touge”
1988 Mitsubishi Starion ESI-R SC-134 845 335
I just like the Starion, no other reason! In reality any B class will probably do!

2009 Honda S2000 CR (B700) SC-143 593 355
Beware of the VTEC!
“Rally Heroes” Japanese Retro Rally (C600)
1990 Subaru Legacy RS (C600) SC-648 013 695
Maybe a little slow but it has excellent handling!
lol, yeah, this ! I actually saw the cat on the runway last night and thought " That’s odd, I wonder if the lanterns are here (right on the runway) tomorrow ? " I’d forgotten about the collectibles so of course there are a bunch of cats in the area
Does Horizon Tour run on Eliminator rules now? We started with only five players, one dropped out in the middle of the first race, and we lost a player each time on the travelling sections so that only two of us finished the last race.
Again there is a translation error in the german version - the weekly challenge said here we have to do a “Strassenrennen” (Road Race) and not a “Strassenszenerennen” (Street Race).
Ohhh, you mean that. Yeah, had drop outs too but at first I thought you meant idiots on team trying to ram me off the road because I dared to pass them because they were slow and sloppy.
EDIT : re The Dropouts… I dunno, I figured it was because you didn’t need to complete it to pop the Daily and that’s the only reason they were there ? Not sure.
Localization problems is quite an issue, and I can at least understand that. About a series ago it seemed to be a problematic thing, though it seems to vary by language. I’ve also noted them in older series’ too. Now, I wouldn’t change any language other than English, but if localization is this bad, then something’s seriously wrong with the QA, which in this case you’d have to go back to English (or European English or even the British one).
Would you do the same thing to French, Polish, Spanish and even other languages like Japanese translations?
Shame localization seems to be thrown on the wayside.
Also, I’m not too impressed with the Galant considering it was relegated to traffic duty… for 14 months.
Touge event just crashes and crashes for me. Almost certainly a memory issue. Too bad they never bother to test this stuff and make sure it works, but then I guess that would be asking too much of a supposed AAA studio.
@CashlessPlains8 , curious about the Silvia maybe. As I’m not able to get to the game today, what other cars are available for the event that you might be interested in doing a tune? If you don’t have time that’s ok. I’ll just run whatcha brung!
@AnakalaRon, it looks like any Japanese car that can be B700 or below…so any one you want should be ok to actually tune but I am not sure how competitive it will be
Let me know and I’ll give it a go later tonight… be a bit before I am in front of my XSX! It will definitely be ready for you tomorrow…
I do love the 92 Silvia though, personally my favorite Silvia
I wish we had the Sil-Eighty!!
In reality any B class will probably do!
