Last time u gave a race car on 16th May n tomorrow it’s 21st November…it’s just a huge gap…more than 6 months…I hope u guys haven’t messed up anything with the car!!!

thank you. very much appreciated

We had a previous trial for S1 Super GT at Copper Canyon. Im guessing the same tunes should work well for this one. I prefer circuits, but Im guessing that first series of corners is going to be the usual trial mess.

The Festival Playlist. 3 years. I’m bored.

I said it before, there doesn’t have to be a playlist. Games can just end. FH1 did that and felt more like an actual festival because of it.

Sure, I could stop playing. But I won’t. At least not yet.

I’ll only stop playing once they stop new cars, I’ve came this far. No point stopping now.

You, too, can overcome FOMO.

I can’t im to weak. Although I did stop playing Forza Motorsport for that reason.

Some people say that FH5 is too easy and too readily handing out prizes.

I definitely prefer it to Crew 2 and you having to fight hundreds of thousands of players for, what, a limited run of (last I checked) 5000 cars each week.

Double post, er, nobody minds, right?

Use any car to do an ultimate (presumably, it unlocked while the skills counter on my screen hadn’t gotten past “great” yet) burnout - https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/360022456853-Forza-Horizon-Skills-A-How-to-Guide - near the test track
Then go here



Now that I did all the legwork, the most difficult part for you is getting onto the basketball court
No, I’m not telling you the best direction to approach from :grin:

Not often I’m free Thursdays but today’s an exception, shame it’s not during a more interesting series.

Given the player levels I was expecting a bigger team win but at least they didn’t mess it up, tune for the One-77 is by RcR StriKer.

New 911 just looks like the usual S1 fayre, good amount of engine swaps available but ultimately it’s going to be the AWD + rallies + racing V12 swap, you’ve seen it plenty of times before and it will likely be nowhere near the strongest cars that share that build, more meh-ness I think.
