Winter #Forzathon Shop, Festival Playlist events and rewards through March 5

If you need help with the wrecking ball skills for the warthog (m12s) weekly challenge then I made a blueprint which if you follow the checkpoints you should get a wrecking ball skill at the end of the race.

The share code is 302 049 437

I also did a quick win race as well the code for that one is 131 099 458.

I have a good playground games tune as well for the lotus 2 eleven. The code is 153 702 785.

I hope these help

^ Mosler does the job well

Trial went … well for me with 3 wins, not so much for the rest of the team :confused:


3 quit mid first race (lost), 1 quit just before the end of second race and I thank the person for doing that (win), last race you see the pic
Team was all the time keeping the back door safe, except on last race :slight_smile:
Trial car as seen on pic - Hoonigan Escort with DJS tune, used my trusty El Camino with my tune to get new supervan, some random Lotus with totally wrong tune (all handling, no speed lol) and max tuned Warthog for cross country (if needed, I also made custom race just south of festival, for Forzathon)
Used offroad Agera RS for speed trap and jump - both done on 3rd try and Hoonigan RS200 for offroad speed trap

Trial in the Hoonigan Escort (not ideal but did the job). Speed trap in the Mosler, speed zone in the Hoonigan RS200 and danger sign in the Ultima. Took about 30 minutes to get the AM. Still need to get the Supervan.

You’re right, I did tune (545 011 302) Hoonigan RS200 and its much quicker then Hoonigan Escort and has more grip, even tho stats don’t show it.

Did the Championship for the Supervan using the 2014 HSV Maloo (i’m an Aussie and we love utes) and raced on unbeatable.

Had a bit of a chuckle when i noticed yourself, FN and Angel in the championship. Sorry to say guys but you all came bottom three…

I, of course, won all three events :slight_smile:

Edit: Sorry, forgot to mention that obviously the AI’s are not based on that player, there is no way you guys would ever drive that poorly.

I did with Maloo as well, it’s a beast!

Best cars are indeed Maloo, Ford Ute and El Camino, latter of which for its high ground clearance and huge power. Sandman’s tires are too skinny.

I agree with most choices. I ran the Exige due to better power/handling balance than the Elises. For Speed Trap you’ll need an X999 car, doesn’t have to be Ferrari. S1900 CC is doable with Jeep but it’s faster if you use S1801 Warthog in conjunction with Forzathon. Danger Sign is always very easy with the Hoonigan RS200.

Erase design and apply it again, it’s probably that.

Used the Morris Traveller (DJS tune) when I got around to doing this. Little bit tough to judge where it’s going to bounce when it comes to the cross country jumps but is extremely quick. Suspect it’s right up there with the top options for this event. Sounds like I did slightly better in my races than my drivatar did in yours! Hope I at least beat FN!

lol!!! Yes you did, Angel came dead last. That Morris would have been a laugh, might give the Trial another run in it to see how i go…

Well it is quicker just to paint the van again using the white.

Hey guys i just logged in and went to fortune island to check the weekly events there and says i completed them but i didn’t any idea why?

They repeat the same events over and over in a rotation so you did it already.

They have been on repeat every 4 weeks since fortune island was released
Did you only start playing about 4 weeks ago
Would be why you have not noticed before

Path to Vulcan:

  1. Do a lap of Monthly Rivals
  2. Get a Warthog and complete the first two Forzathon challenges (Wrecking Ball = 3 Wreckage in rapid sucession).
  3. Build your Warthog to S1801 and complete the S1900 Cross Country tournament in it (will complete 3rd Forzathon challenge as well)
  4. Max your Warthog out (use 7.2L Racing V8 swap) and complete the final Forzathon challenge
  5. Win “It’s a Bird? A Plane?” with an AWD-converted, snow tires A800 Vans and Utility (Holden/Ford Ute and Chevy El Camino will do fine)
  6. Win “Magnum Lotus” in any Lotus (Exige S is most balanced IMO)
  7. Do the Mudkickers’ Danger Sign in a Hoonigan RS200
  8. Do the Speed Zone in a Hoonigan RS200

Don’t bother with the Speed Trap. Waste of time. You need an X999 hypercar/track toy with extreme power, AWD conversion and snow tires, maybe also rally suspension. I used the CCGT. To add to the frustration, when approaching from east, traffic usually spawns on the left hander’s apex right before the speed trap, and the radar itself is positioned slightly downhill, so you’ll lose speed before hitting it. Yet another wasteful challenge to help Playground milk those precious playtime from the people who still bother going for the rare cars in this stupid game.

My comments on the cars…

AM Vulcan AMR: A grippier, slower version of the original. Barely breaks 320 kph at S2998. Understeers due to front engine. There are better cars in the game.
Ford Supervan: Useless in S1900. With powerful engine swaps, it accelerates extremely fast, could be good in S2998. Comes with Goodyear racing tires seen in the Monte Carlo.

Meta player should skip the Vulcan. Person who plays the game as intended (for fun, not stupid minmaxing) might appreciate the Aston since it’s grippy and looks much better than the original.

Anyoneelse’s “Ford Supervan 3” showing up blank in the car selection screen?

Mine shows up ok.

Is yours the standard livery? I layered mine up, so maybe summat to do with my livery?

This is what’s making my SV3 go invisible in the car selection screen:

Even with vinyls mine shows up…

I changed it to another design of mine and it loaded OK! Changed it back to the liveryI had an issue with and it showed up in the car selection screen!

Just a weird glitch then!

Yes mines standard.
