One of Forza Horizon 6’s most annoying Festival Playlist challenges this week is to not just complete, but win the Hakone Nanamagari touge race using the 2022 Toyota GR86. This is one hell of a track, and the AI is far from fair. But even finding this race will be your first hurdle.
Completing this event is necessary if you want all the reward cars in the Series 1: Welcome to Japan Festival Playlist, including this week’s exclusive items. I’ll go over where to find it and my tips for getting first place below so you can move on to the next challenge.
Where to find the Hakone Nanamagari touge race in Forza Horizon 6
You can find the Hakone Nanamagari touge race near the centre of the Nangan region in the southwest corner of the map. You can spot the winding mountain road pretty easily from the map once you know what you’re looking for, but it’s not far from the Nissan Skyline GT-2000 Barn Find and Coastline Sprint event to the west and the Irokawa Circuit to the southwest.
My tips to win the Hakone Nanamagari touge race
To complete the Festival Challenge, you actually need to win Hakone Nanamagari using the 2022 Toyota GR86, which won’t be easy if you’re not a fan of touge racing (I’m not.) It’s a B-class event, capping your vehicle at a maximum 600 power rating, so upgrading your GR86 to go faster isn’t necessarily the answer. In fact, if you can’t access the race when you approach it, then it’s because your car is too high-rated.
Here’s what I recommend:
- You can lower the difficulty level, which will make your opponent slower and easier to pass, especially at the end of the race.
- Use a properly tuned 2022 Toyota GR86 with good braking and turning. I actually used an AWD road racing tune. Here’s the share code: 302 087 287.
- Ram your opponent off the road on the first corner, as this will cause them to have to return to the checkpoint, which basically means they’re out of the race.
This task is the final step in the Gazoo Racer weekly challenge, so ticking it off will reward you with 25,000 credits, and most importantly, five points towards the Festival Playlist. Honestly, it’s not that much money, but the points are necessary if you want all the rewards this week and for the month-long series.
