Touching tips :stuck_out_tongue:

PS. Since Hide&seek is on playlist again - if anyone wants to do that in convoy, I should be available 1 hour after season change.

(warning - nerd alert) strictly speaking a ziggurat is a Mesapotamian structure but it’s a word not often used so is good to see it

ok. I’ll just call it an “old, big, stone, thingy by the place with the weird name” :grinning:

or shall I just call it a “Step Pyramid?”

4 Likes

I just call it the one inside the Pyramid of the Moon speed zone. :wink: Not to be confused with the one by the Pyramid of the Sun speed trap.

makes me want to play Quake again - “Ziggurat Vertigo” is a secret level if I remember rightly and I don’t remember seeing a ziggurat in it but might have been concentrating on shooting (never was very good at pacifist runs of that game)

This is my tune for the Trial. It’s just a easy test run against unbeatable AI. About 2 seconds behind my Rival time lol.

1993 Renault Clio Williams. FWD drag tire full areo meta build, really easy to drive. You might need a little bit time to get used to the handling of drag tires if you have never driven one before, but overall it’s not that hard to drive. I am a keyboard player, so I guess my tune can be suitable for everyone.

I am open to any response. Please let me know if there are any thing feel uncomfortable with my tune in order to let me improve it.

Share Code: 141 044 445

BTW, if anyone likes Purist build, I have a 2010 Megane RS available, also a drag tire tune.

Seasonal EventLab 1:

S1 900 Track Toys: 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS (Tune Code: 166 490 998)
This is a very stable old tune, easy to handle for Green Plains Motor Raceway on EventLab Island.


Seasonal EventLab 2:

C 600 Hot Hatch: 1995 Volkswagen Corrado (Tune Code: 953 404 028)
A reliable, stable old tune that works well for Slice N Dice Course on Dunas Blancas Sprint.


Seasonal Playground Games:

S1 900 Anything Goes: 1986 Hoonigan RS 200 (Tune Code: 126 727 809)
A nimble and compact rally car, should work well for Team Flag Rush at Baja Circuit in Flying the Flag.


Seasonal Stunt Challenges:

S1 900 Ferrari: 2002 Ferrari Enzo (Tune Code: 156 453 937)
A fast and sleek tune without Forza aero, perfect for hitting the target speeds in both Drag Strip Speed Trap (150 mph) and Atlantes de Tula Speed Zone (130 mph).


Seasonal Championship:

B 700 1970s: 1971 Plymouth Cuda (Tune Code: 115 369 864)
An old but reliable tune that works well for the Groove It or Lose It Street Racing event at Granjas de Tapalpa.


A 800 Unlimited Offroad: 1993 Toyota Baja Truck (Tune Code: 119 573 491)
One of the lighter and lower horsepower trucks in its class, more suitable for rally-type events like Nova Flair on Dirt Racing (Mangrove Scramble).


B 700 UTVs & Buggies: 1969 Volkswagen Baja Bug (Tune Code: 762 794 851)
This buggy already packs the highest horsepower available (408 HP) and should handle well for the Fit for Purpose Cross Country Racing event at Airfield CC Circuit.


Hot Wheels & Rally Adventure Stunt Challenges:

A 800 Nissan: 2010 Nissan 370Z (Tune Code: 165 582 633)
With its rally tune, this car should be a good fit for the Forest Leap Danger Sign in Hot Wheels (1034 feet) and the La Cantera Speed Trap in Rally Adventure (105 mph).


Hot Wheels Championship:

A 800 Ford & Hoonigan: 1992 Ford Escort RS (Tune Code: 142 627 414)
A rally tune that should perform well in the Watch Out for Hazards! event at Forest Falls Hazard Sprint.


Rally Adventure Championship:

B 700 Lancia: 1992 Lancia Delta (Tune Code: 358 667 713)
Though the FWD Meta Fulvia is rare, this Lancia tune should be sufficient for the Straight and Narrows event on The Narrows.

I went with drag tires for most of my Trial tunes. They’re very easy to drive with great launch to hopefully help you get through that first 90 degree turn on Sierra Verde before the corner bombers arrive.

Going to go with the '91 Peugeot 205 Rallye for my first run.

Just great. The treasure hunt picture does not register. Restarting game now. I wish the intro was skippable on PC.

Still nothing. What a great start of the Horizon week.

Are you using a car of the type Unlimited Offroad?
