How do I get the Hoonigan Pack? I did thr Physical Pre Order of the Ultimate Edition of FM7 and bought the pack for FH3. Shouldn't I have it? And if not how do I get it because the game has Marketplace blocked off.

It was only available to people who pre-ordered digitally. Stupid, I know. You'll have to buy it separately.

Not a complaint or anything but I was hoping the Audi RS2 would finally be modeled with the Porsche logo it's supposed to have on the badges, engine and brake calipers now that Porsche is in the game out of the box.

Also, where is that modeled Subaru 22B engine we were promised? I'm happy to see the 2004 STI is now fully modeled with opening hood and trunk and it's super accurate to the real car down to the jack and intercooler water spray flaps in the trunk. Neat 👍

A note to anyone using the ram grind method. After the first 30 second run when you restartbif you change it to a drift race with 1 player bucket, set end conditions to all players in bucket. You don’t have to wait 30 seconds, race ends as it starts.

So, the BMW M4 Forza Edition...

The front of the car is so low to the ground (even at max Ride Height) that it scrapes the ground, and if you drive it around Lime Rock it’ll dig into the tarmac so hard sometimes that you will spin on the spot.

I used it in one of the championships last night. I don't think I had made any changes to it though it is possible I had tweaked the tune a little as I had driven it a few laps around the ring in freeplay before.

I did notice what looked like sparks coming from the front of the car at times but really enjoyed driving the car. Prior to that event I had did the rebirth of the muscle car and had been driving the 77 TA in that one. The BMW felt awesome after driving the TA ;)

So what's the deal with groove music, how do you get it to work? Or did they decide to not put it in the game?

It's not available at launch, but will come in the future.

That being said we don't know how much Microsoft's recent announcement to stop supporting Groove's subscription model will affect things.

For those who are glitching to get lots of credits.

Be careful

T10 has a history of wiping user stats, forcing start overs and even blocking users for doing such things in Forza.
In this case if they see a user with 990 rewards and several million credits they are going to be able to tell they are cheating and may take action.

If it’s like the truck method then it’s not hurting the game it’s just changing the game settings on free play.

To my understanding, the game isn’t supposed to feature it at all bc it would be some what of a waste; Groove will be shut down by year’s end with some folks being refunded or switched to 60 days of Spotify. The only way to listen to music is to have it stored locally or in a personal cloud, iirc.

That didn’t work for me it just restarted the race without giving rewards.

Or to use the Spotify App on the Xbox, as it overlaps all other music and has a separate volume slider specifically for the music.
 

This is just sad. The GTR has no brakelights and freakin' side mirrors dissappear after the starting "cutscene". :( Add to that the messed up sounds on some cars that used to sound perfect and I'm just sitting here and wondering what happened. I bought the Ultimate Edition so I'm still hoping they fix stuff but there is so much to fix...

EDIT:Side mirrors reappear when in Photo Mode. No surprise since it uses different model than the game.

I was so psyched to hear it’s integration but I have yet to actually use it in any game I play for some reason. 💡

Do the 30 second times race method first then restart as normal, before you start race again set to drift and end condition as all players in bucket. Then go.

I keep seeing this question, even on the official forums. You know you can run Groove in the background? Download/install the app from the app store. Launch Groove, play your music. I just loaded up local mp3s to OneDrive (anyone with hotmail has this) and it detected it. Hit Play. Go back to the game, go to audio, lower everything and enjoy your tunes. Too bad there is no mute, even on lowest setting, can still hear audio from the game a bit.

I did this with Horizon 3 as well, since Groove seemed to skip and there aren't any controls. Having it run in the background is way better and you can control it.

If we can still use local music for Groove I may end up downloading the Forza Motorsport 6 soundtrack and using that instead. This "rock" doesn't do it for me.

I've been using Spotify and listening to the Forza 3/4 (my favourite) and 6 soundtracks in the background on my Xbox, sounds so much better now.
 
After having a closer look at the Altima supercar I've also noticed it has the incorrect wheels too. How is this possible when all the Supercars run the exact same wheels. So confused.
 
Any word on when Newgarden will be running his lap?

Seems like a bit of a buzzkill telling us to chase someone that hasn't posted a time yet. :lol:

I have the same problem. I also have the Ultimate edition yet i cant buy them.
 
Go into 'manage game' on the main Xbox menu (if you're on Xbox that is), and see if you have to install the pack there.

I had to do it again for some reason... Don't know exactly why, but it worked. Also, make sure the game is updated with the newest patch.
