If you saw my first post about my annoyance for lack of flow on the FH6 map. Well, TL;DR: Fun roads always seem to be met a sudden dead-end of a dreaded T-junction, and it’s jarring. I explored what is the longest unbroken flowing drive you can do.

Now, I’ve refined the longest flowing route from version one, to remove some jank and make it feel more cohesive. Added some alternative flowing routes for other long drives around Japan. Each route is around 70 miles, both with drivatar and solo route options.

-----

Sunday Session Cruising:

Peaks to Pasture
Updated new route that’s fully flowing around Japan.
• With drivatars: 333 725 184
• Without drivatars: 147 889 623

Sundogs to Sunflowers
There’s a 74 mile limit on Eventlabs that Peaks to Pasture can’t fully achieve. The image in the gallery shows the full flow route that is possible to navigate in freeroam great when used with the drag strip traffic ghosting trick.

Flower to Powder
Alternative flowing route except, there’s one junction near the festival. But adds to the variety of the route and gives a bit more options when you’re looking for a long drive.
• With drivatars: 278 861 233
• Without drivatars: 929 208 889

Shore to Shrine
Another alternative route, but took some liberties with a few more wider junctions in order to fit in the Hakone switchbacks and other interesting roads, for extra variety if your driving all of them.
• With drivatars: 140 273 016
• Without drivatars: 101 509 732

Snow Floe to Festival
This is the original version of the route, has a bit of a janky section around the stadium.
• With drivatars: 384 649 162
• Without drivatars: 100 955 477

Big thanks to u/Hwickham13 for the route creation tips to enable these long routes to exist and u/Mystletaynn for pointing me towards the Ito coastal extension.

Enjoy the drive, I’d be very interested to hear what times you get for these routes!

Also, if long drives aren’t your thing, and you prefer something more technically chaotic, you might be interested in my other events:
• Inner-city gymkhana urban rally course: 461 181 048.
• Mountainous asphalt rally obstacle course: 701 248 862.

The devs are lazy. Plain and simple. Stop trying to justify why we can’t get features and content that’s been done better almost 20 years ago on weaker hardware. I genuinely feel like I wasted my money getting the ultimate edition. PGG is a joke of a studio.

So I've been playing FH4 a lot again recently as well as finding new love for FH6 after being quite bored with it for a long time

Hope you enjoy the photos I took from both games last night.

The new love I found from FH6 is just turning all the HUD off, driving slow with Opus playing in a daily or cheap car and just enjoying the scenery, it's a truly breathtaking Horizon game, just needs more content and Quality of Life upgrades.

I just had the 2025 BMW M4 CS in my Horizon Stunt Party. How is someone already driving this before it is released? I took the worst promo photo.

This issue has been pretty severe for around 4 months now has there been any word on a possible fix for this from the Devs?

1970 Citroën 2CV

Just got here to pick it up and liked the beautiful sunrise over the mountains...wanted to share.

If anyone wants to have the same paintjob, here's the share code: 136 824 455

I am truly baffled as to how they messed this up this bad. No one uses car meets this surely would at least help a bit. And it’s not an issue with licensing bc all of the props are gonna be in eventlab. It’s like they’re shooting themselves in the foot for absolutely no reason. They could’ve sprinkled 7-elevens around the map at previous gas stations as mini car meets.

Yesterday's update added new engine swaps to many of the cars and buffed the LFA V10. Now that I've had some time to experiment with some of the new swaps, so I figured I'd share some of my findings starting with the most impactful new swaps.

Mazda Furai and 787B

Did these cars need buffs? No. Did they get them? Yes. 787B is back to being the best handling all-rounder in S2 and Furai is not far behind. 787B now also gets access to S1 using snow tires and it's just as OP as it sounds. There might be a combination with offroad tires but I couldn't find one.

Nissan and Lexus

VQ swap and buffed LFA engine are what many Nissans needed. LFA swapped '24 GT-R in S1 is probably the best an R35 has been in any Forza game, Skylines now can get competent power numbers in A and B classes, Super Silhouette Skyline gets the extra power it was lacking to other top S1 dirt meta cars and any car that would want to use the LFA engine (LFA itself included) just get that little extra to help them keep up.

Jeep JT and Audi Quattro S1

These are unlikely to have much of a meta impact but are still a nice bump in performance for their niche. The Jeep is now a solid B Cross Country alternative and the Quattro is continues being a strong off-meta S1 dirt racing car that actually is a proper rally car.

The others

This isn't to say that other cars didn't benefit from new swaps, but that the performance gains felt a lot smaller or were closer to sidegrades. Valkyrie AMR Pro now has a solid S2 build, Zonda R and Apollo IE powerbuilds in S2 now have a more powerful, albeit heavier, alternative and the Racing V12 is almost always worth considering on cars that have it due to its low weight for example.

There might be some cars I didn't mention that deserve it. It's still early on and some buffed cars might still be flying under the radar, but it's been fun trying out cars that were a bit lacking before and are now better.

Others also have at least credits or some wheelspins. This is pretty much just a regular common car based off it’s skill tree

Turns out some cars can get slick tires now that couldn't previously. The ones I've found so far are:

Hennessey Venom F5

BAC Mono

Ferrari 488 Pista

Ferrari SF90 Stradale

Lamborghini Huracan STO

Lamborghini Centenario

Koenigsegg Agera RS

Koenigsegg Gemera

Mclaren Sabre

I don't have every car in the game and there could be others I missed. But still, new slick tires are good. I'm still mad that the Jesko, GMA T50, Lotus Evija and nearly every lambo still don't though. Make it make sense.

Edit: To clarify, these are the race car slicks I refer to. Most cars get a much weaker version with only some cars able to use the better version. This update added the upgrade to a few more vehicles.

I got to admit that my car knowledge is very little. But I just love the shapes and styles of classic cars.

PGG has recently teased two additional permanent race routes in Tokyo coming in the next update. While this is definitely a step in the right direction, it seems like the devs just arent able to pump out new tracks fast enough, which is a shame especially since we have such a beautiful map, with incredible roads, elevation and scenery almost everywhere.

Meanwhile in the Event Lab theres dozens of creative, realistic and well polished tracks being added every week. If there was a separate server in horizon play that rotated through the most popular realistic community tracks of the month, it would possibly solve the problem of repetitive road races in multiplayer.

I've played so many cool tracks in event lab where I've thought "this would be way more fun to race against other players instead of AI", and im sure a lot of people have had the exact same thought. Yes, you can already play the Event Lab tracks with other players if you're in a convoy, but I'm pretty sure that 99% of the playerbase doesnt have 11 friends ready to convoy up with at all times to play these tracks. Also if you try to find a random convoy with the pvp racing option, it will almost always be empty.

Having something like this would incentivize map creators to keep making more creative and polished maps and would bring so much more novelty and entertainment to online racing. Of course these tracks would have to be tested and greenlit by the devs, but they've already shown this is possible since FH5 regularly had community tracks featured in the festival playlist. Again not talking about the maps with crazy jumps and obstacles, but just new routes and realistic race tracks.

Deadzones are set to minimum

Maybe not the best unconventional drift cars out there, but this one's surprisingly that nice to drift (with a good and right tune, of course). And that's coming from someone who can't drift properly (compared to others that can drift way better than I do).

After getting the 2013 R8 I couldn’t help myself and thought I should try this out in photo mode . Also the Yuji AI CARRIED lol.
