Anyone else saving their forzathon points? I've just been buying the exclusive car that I don't have, then stockpiling the rest of the points.
You can reset you Forzathone challenges by changing seasons in offline.

1)Complete weekly challenge = 200 FP with VIP House
2)Quit
3)Go offline
4)Change system time(next week)
5)Login into game world
6)Quit
7)Go online
8)Change system time(current time)
9)Login into game world
10)Complete weekly challenge = 200 FP with VIP House

Also, you can complete PvE championships from past Forzathones if you missed any.
 
What car is everyone using for the final weekly Forzathon chapter? The challenge is to 3-star the Princes Street Speed Trap in Edunburgh in a Super GT car. That's 230mph. I'm using my Ferrari 812 Superfast but the best I've gotten is 227mph.
 
I used the Superfast, but I downloaded a tune called MAXED OUT by ls4546. Then I ran east to west and got it on my first try @234 mph! (with that tune).
In fact it also casually smashed the OLD TOWN speed trap when driving north to set up my run! I think I have my speed trap killer onwards!

That's the car I used. There was a tune I found that made the car an X999 and I got over 235 mph
I did the same as this

Thanks. I used a tune by doggon spooks. It took a few tries, but I finally got 231 mph going east to west.
 
Put the racing V8 and a supercharger in the Arctic Landcruiser and I can confirm there isn't a quicker way to cross the map than in this thing. Absolute monster.



Also bagged more great deals on the auction house tonight. Picked up a 93' Mustang SVT, '14 Grand Cherokee, '16 Aventador, and around 10x '05 Elises (all of which were below maximum normal asking price so I flipped them straight back...). Sniped a few minimum buyout Zonda Cinques, plus an F50 and a CLK-GTR just to flip them right back again for a healthy profit too. I think the auction house is one of my favourite ways to make money in this game, flipping some of the supercars that people place on minimum buyouts takes no time at all if you're looking at the right cars. If I had the required level to list some of my hoard of wheelspin-only cars for the maximum 20m buyout I could be into the hundreds of millions by now.
 
I used a four wheel drive swap Pagani Zonda R forza edition and won easily with traction control on. Also had a close race in my TTRS but it showed 2nd place for me even though I thought I crossed the line first

Closest race I’ve had so far.
 
The Bugatti Chiron pleasantly surprised me at just how well it actually drives. Fully built up without Forza Aero, it's very comfortable to handle, and being a modern Bugatti, it hits stratospheric speeds too. Might make it one of my main S2 cars. 👍
 
The new Vantage is pretty good to drive but it feels like the interior is not finished...

It's also missing that very loud launch colour. There's also no option to paint the diffuser like what's offered on the real car, a bit of a miss when it's launched with the paint update.

Otherwise it's a pretty nice car to drive.

I won +16,000 points by Forzathon Live alone, and i ended with one rule: each time i reach 1000 FP, i spend some until i goes below 1000.

You what. I've been looking for one for weeks and have never seen one. What fell magic is this malarkey???
Given the car low front value (28,000 Cr), i couldn't swear i did not trash one or two to make room in my garage :( Which leads me to one question: does anybody knows if the garage still has the initial 540 slot limit, as i red that a patch was planned to solve that problem.

Chiron is definitely better handling than the Veyron SS, but I still just find both of them uncomfortably heavy in corners compared to a lot of other options.

I got mine from a wheelspin :)

Only wheelspin exclusive car I'm missing is the Mercedes. I've gotten all the rest from wheelspins alone.

I never saw a Crown Vic on a spin until I landed on it.

I tweaked the caster to 5.5, which mitigated the slow turn-in (caster normally starts at 5.0, odd for an S2 car as they usually have a 6.0 or 6.5 caster to start off).

On my custom David track (a condensed version of Goliath), my record was a 5:42.642 set by an S2 998 Vulcan FE after roughly 30 laps. The Chiron destroyed that time in just 4 laps, achieving a 5:41.061. I love it! :)
 

Anybody from England (or anywhere, really) able to explain these buildings? These old ruined stone buildings are all over the map. Sometimes there are several of them grouped together, like at the stone quarry or on Mam Tor. More often it's just a single building in the middle of the moors, or in a forest, or on the side of a mountain. At least at the quarry, they look like lodgings for the workers, but that doesn't make much sense for the individual buildings.
 
Been trying ages to beat the final weekly forzathon challenge without the 812 (because I don’t have one.) using the Vantage :lol: can only manage 366/370km/h...
 
I managed it with an AMG GT R, using a special tune (I think it was by “StevethePirate” something or other...). Took me a few tries, but nail the line and it will do 230mph.
 
Try the Ferrari F12 TDF?

Had a look at the TDF, turns out it's a hyper car sadly

@Firehound427 I'll probably buy one of those and get it out of the way, my lack of tuning knowledge and messing around with gearing has only brought me 2km/h closer with now 3 to go

Up to 367.38/370km/h and cannot manage better :indiff: Infuriating car spawns I must say... Only because you need possibly the worlds largest run up! In the Aston that is lol

Gotta love the car categorizing. :lol:
Is the F12 Berlinetta a SuperGT car?

I guess they're meant to represent old ruined farm houses or cottages, we have them all over the countryside.

Indeed :lol: Caught me off guard too, I bought one without checking as I cannot cycle badges to see what class they are with my wheel! decided to check after buying which was smart :dunce:

Remember that sign that requires the Peel? Me neither...

If you want to lessen the car spawns, make sure you're online.

Speaking of which, someone saw me online racing up and down Princes Street, trying like hell to hit the speed, took pity on me and sent me a message out of the blue suggesting I use the AMG GT-R. Yes, there are a lot of griefers and idiots out there. But there are also people out there willing to go out of their way to help. That's why I love Horizon.
