I don't believe the Volvo can even use the snow tires and stay in B class. It's already B652 stock, snow tires place it just a hair into A.


Yeah, I know. My point was it doesn't need them in B class given its already AWD. Would they be nice? Sure. But I've won the trial, 3 different times, 1st place every time, stock tires. I've seen bone stock Volvo come in second. It's not a difficult trial.



The trial itself was not difficult but the team I was stuck with sure was. Racing against me like i'm the enemy.

For #Forzathon challenge purposes, getting a Barrel Roll skill is way easier than it sounds, you need far from a perfect landing to succeed.

Yeah, I think a half or 3 quarter turn in air is enough to register as a barrel roll, but it would have broke a hypothetical skill chain without either sticking the landing or having the extra life perk. I can sometimes even get it rolling over on the ground with the perk enabled, as long as I land on my wheels and don't respawn.

I might have been in the same session. Both teams had 6 players but after round 1, 5 of the blue team players gone. But I'm still baffled why the remaining player stayed in the session and made us go until round 3. I'm not against playing but with 6-1 it was not interesting at all.

Hats-off to that player anyway for scoring 3 flags against all of us. (We scored 16 that's another story)


I'm not sure if it was the same match actually, I don't think our lone fighter got any flags during last event. But I respect the attitude, wanna get good, keep playing and that's what some guys do. And to be entirely honest, it has happened to me too. :-D

Yeah, it's more about to get enough speed to get Barrel Roll completed in the air, landing can be anything as long it doesn't fall on roof or dive straight on it's side.

Slightly annoying that winning races in the Ranger Raptor in ranked doesn’t count as a race win. Won 5 in a row and assumed that would also be the weekly challenge complete but instead I’ve got to go and do 5 offline races.

I dont know who's idea it was to change flag rush to capture the flag but they completely ruined it. It was the most fun mini game in FH3. Colored flags and multiple zones. Its now the least fun, infection is a headache, while king is more fun this time around cause of multiple crowns. Flag rush should be returned to how it started, its the event I dread when it comes to the weekly PG requirement

This PR stunt for this winter season is a bugger so far the toughest one for a long time. It's the snow is what makes it hard. My car i use for speed zones is the Radical RXC. I have been able to complete season objectives for speed zones in it till now. Any suggestions on a car and the tune for Derwent Water Speed Zone PR stunt? btw an AWD tune please

there are a ton of cars that will do that speed zone to finish the season objective..

2015 Corvette, Tune called Winter Speed by me, will do it, but any desent gripping Rally car in S2 will do it too.

did a couple of tests, here are 4 more cars, with the tune i used:

2005 TVR Sagaris Forza Edition 'Offroad Beast'
1986 Hoonigan Ford RS200 Evolution 'Derwent'
1985 Ford RS200 Evolution 'Derwent'
2014 Lamborghini Urus Concept 'Derwent'

I did this one early because I was intrigued by your post and was up for a challenge. This one took me three tries. I used a Dodge Durango SRT at S1-900, turned on TCS and went from South-to-North (for me the other way initially looked easier but my SUV kept losing the sharp corner when it was at the end of the run.) I simply made sure I got a good start into the speed zone and kept it on 4th gear, which was enough to meet the average speed target for the Seasonal PR Stunt. If you don't have the Durango then look for another SUV that's set up for Cross Country and tune it to S1 or higher. (I think the Jeep Trailcat could do the trick as well).

Anyway, don't make the mistake of bringing the wrong tool to the job because you'll just be spinning your wheels for no reason. Any other season than this I'd pick something other than the Durango, but for the winter it's always served me quite well. Good luck and hope this helps! 👍

That's not a great choice for snow ride. I used Hoonigan Ford Escort and it was no problem at all. If you don't have it, Ford RS200 (regular or Hoonie) would easily do, fast tune for Jeep Trailcat or Browler - any of those would work great.

Yep, I used the Hoonigan RS200, just at S1 900, so I’d have thought most S2 tunes will definitely do it easily.

Dunno. Maybe it's intentional. It's definitely no short of a change of pace from Hyperspeed that's for sure.

- '19 Raptor has perk for Cross Country races, it's unfortunately not that great car in it's class for it's PI at least in stock form IMO. I found City Outskirts trail and Mountain Foot Cross Country to be winnable with this on higher difficulty levels if you race it stock.

Rally Fighter Champ can be won with stock vehicle at least up to Pro.

Did Ford Championship with Focus RS which I actually build for playground games. Made championship really easy. Took MG Metro for AWD Champ which I had again, built for Playground Games, won 2 out 3 to win the champ. Bit funny, the way it's not meat to be played.

Didn't realised Trial had B700 limit. Built S1 Polestar, ended racing with rental stock Polestar. Ended in game where everyone was racing stock Volvo. Team win 3 out of 3, personal won 2 out of 3. Definitely had lot of in team racing going on in this trial but good team no matter.

Won Playground games event in first try, other team had one player left after first round or so.

PR stunts:

Bugatti Veyron SS X tuned to Speed Trap.
Tuned Ford RS200 S1 (non Hoonigan) for Speed Zone
Hoonigan RS200 for Danger Sign


I used tuned Mosler MTS900 X for Danger Sign my go to car for danger signs, Hoonigan RS200 would fit in the pipes easier i reckon. Used tuned Porsche 2019 911 X for speed trap it flys with it.s 1,400 hpI can you make it,s top speed match the Agera RS?

Thanks after a few tries i got 103.7 mph = 166.88 kph from north to south in the Hooniie 1978 RS escort

Hoonie escort for snow speed zone rides in the future.

I think this selection can work for pretty much anyone too. And yeah, Hoonigan RS200 is my second go to car for stunts for it's handling. Can't say anything about '19 Porsche 911 X top speed vs Agera RS. Anybody else know about this?
