News Now: Forza Horizon 5 send devastating message to the Festival Weekly Challenges

The Retrowave series moves into its second week and Autumn has dawned in Mexico. I have to say that I have been enjoying the new radio station more than I thought I would, so good job there.

However, a new week means fresh challenges in the Festival Playlist of Forza Horizon 5, where we may try our hand at winning brand-new vehicles. I think I have everything you should need to make it through Series 24 Autumn.

Part 1: Weekly Car Challenge – Quattrovalvole

One of the classic 80’s poster cars now, with the Lamborghini Countach LP5000 QV taking centre stage. The last hurrah of the Countach, this featured a 5.2 litre V12 engine to make performance brisk.

Should you not have one in your garage, it will set you back 220,000 credits.

Part 2: Weekly Challenges, Championships and PR Stunts

With the weekly challenge done and dusted, let’s dive into the rest of the mayhem on offer.

The Trial, the Eventlab having two events, PR Stunts and a massive three Seasonal Championships. More racing makes me a happy boy.

The Trial – Wedge Racers

Let’s try to race nicely, yeah?

We need a Retro Supercar, and the tuning limit is A Class 800. I chose a Countach, share code: 797737461.

The prize for managing to find people who actually want to race The Trial like it should be done is a Porsche 911 GT2 from 1995. Not that wedgey…
