Reminder: If the game or Festival Playlist is not working as intended, follow some basic troubleshooting steps:

  1. Reboot your device
  2. Check the details of the event along with Eligible Cars to be sure you’re meeting the requirement to complete it.
  3. Check the Known Issues list at Forza Support
  4. Submit a Ticket at Forza Support with your details for investigation
  5. Post bugs in the #forza-horizon-5:fh5-troubleshooting forum after doing the above and include what you’ve done so others can confirm if they are experiencing the same issue.

The Weekly Forzathon not recognizing owning/driving the correct car is an issue we’ve seen over multiple seasons. For this issue you can try rebooting, and if that doesn’t work try buying a new model of that car and start again to see if it registers. If not, please Submit a Ticket so the Support team is alerted to the number of players affected.

Other Tips:

  • The Festival Playlist toggle for Eligible Cars may only show cars that meet the class requirements in stock form; you may have a car that will become eligible after upgrading it to the required class.

C600 anything goes Trial will be interesting. Wow, a super wheelspin just for top 30 in the Eliminator? I hope this makes it more worth it for those people who don’t like the Eliminator.

5

The trial was way easier this week. The not so great cars and really wet roads meant no runaway AI. In my experience anyway.

6

The wet roads actually help the AI as they’re not affected at all by them.

The trial was easy boarding on novice, but that d500 cult championship was a nightmare.

9

The D500 Cult Car Championship was ridiculously easy with a D500 Beetle with a road tune. Massive rubberbanding of the AI and still won by 10-20 seconds on each race.

Where I really had problems was with the bounce house event lab. Kept clipping into or even through the track on landing.

Oops I didn’t noticed that video, thanks :sweat_smile:

Thank you - these are so ****ing stupid anymore. I hope they replace whoever’s coming up with these pedantic and useless clues. Step One - steal the Declaration of Independence…

Painted and upgraded two Gremlins, got nothing, came here instead. So tired of playing the “Is it a bug, or just stupid” game… Oh wow, a hoodie.

Agreed. I guess they’re trying to be clever, “Miniature Painter Hats” for MPH… meanwhile, in the REST OF THE WORLD that isn’t stuck in the stone age of measurements, and a game that features PAINTING cars and HATS for our drivers… yeah, they could have done better, a lot better.

The Trial and the Championship were very easy but I’m not complaining. Being in the Trial with players who could drive helped and in the Championship had a good tune for the AMC Gremlin. The 2 things I am struggling with are the PUNTA ALLEN 140 mph Speed Zone (so far I can only get 139.6 mph in a S1 900 Retro Supercar) and the first of the daily challenges (complete a challenge card in Freeroam). Completed several single challenges from the Super7 menu but none have registered in the Festival Playlist. Tried rebooting etc.

18

I eeked out a 140.02 with the Porsche Strassenversion after falling 5-6 mph short in the Jaguar XJ220. Those were the only 2 Retro Supercars I had set for S1.

For the challenge card, try picking one that’s available on the map instead of from the menus.

19

well picking up the eventlab event on the map doesn’t work either

I used the old Mclaren the normal one with an s1900 and got nearly 150mph. It was a grip tune I used.
