I want to do it but I haven't unlocked the danger sign yet, anyone I can play with so I can complete this? I'm on PC.

Edit: never mind, just did it. :D

I liked this mini-Forzathon. It wasn't too easy, but too difficult neither - just required some patience. It took about 20 tries to hit 550 ft. at Airport danger sign. I hit 544-547 ft. several times before I nailed it. Luckily I was able to sneak off from work early... :sly::lol:
 
phew.. That was a tough one.

Took a few attempts got so close but no cigar on a few occasions but finally got there.

You need to take the straightest bump free route possible and you need to be doing atleast 140mph to know you are on target, first time me Car ended up rolling so it counted as a fail, but got it right 2nd time.

I wasn't planning on playing Horizon 3 today but now I'm glad I did :)
 
That was not easy. My advice would be to clear that brush out of the way of the jump and hit the jump as far to the left as possible.
 
Is that Huracan any different from the Huracan HE you could get from the wheelspins way back when the game came out? I've already got one, if it's exactly the same I don't think it'll be worth the hassle.

It's the same one, the one that gives you a Skills boost. I'd still go for it if money is an issue. Get the car, keep it for about a week, sell it in the AH for a decent buck. 👍

I think I've got something like 23 millions in bank, so I'll be good on that front. :lol: Might try to get it in my son's gamefile though, if he can't do it.

Haha makes my 7,000,000cr look like chicken feed. :lol:

I once had 32,000,000 credits saved up for the Black Friday 30% off sale. I spend every single credit that weekend. I'm now back up to about 9.4 million.
 
In my desperation I removed the roll cage and changed the drivetrain to RWD to remove about 100kg from the car. Also changed the gearbox to the sport one. And I've just managed to do it.

Selling the wretched car now!

Last I checked: roughly 110,000,000 CR

Being a high level painter/racer pays off. All natural play, no Goliath grinding needed.
 
I got my 26.2 million credits by adopting @PJTierney's method of playing (using only 5 cars per class) and I'm doing a lot better money-wise than I did on my first playthrough. I would have even more but sometimes you have to bite the bullet if you want those HE cars.

I was grinding Goliath so much, I'm surprised I didn't grind it down to a ¼-mile dirt track.
 
I got within 66ft of the Huracan before my wife wanted to go to bed. Never mind, it allowed me to get the 20k XP board and I won 100k on the spin, so it definitely wasn't futile.
 
That was more complicated than I thought it would be, took about 20 attempts but I finally figured out where to hit the ramp.
 
Yesterday's challenge for the Huracan was just the worst Forzathon challenge I've ever attempted. Over 50 attempts and the closest I got was 6 Metres away. Only time I managed to do it was when I rolled.



Gave up after this run and sold my G65 for a 355k buyout.

That jump was a total nightmare. Kept landing at 155-165 meters with fully tuned car. Only after downloading a tune with obviously road setup, as it was jumping like crazy at any bump, suddenly 177 meters. Seems the rally suspension swallowed the energy at the jump.

Anyone managed to do the Land Rover head to head challenge? Did about 10 races, won 6 and never got the XP... :(
 
The best approach was definitely from the dirt track and not going through the airport. It was a shame I ran out of time, but I'd have only sold the HE anyway.
