You hit the throttle and the DMC-12 coughs into motion—then the week’s timer reminds you it’s not just a joyride. I’ve chased weekly festival goals long enough to know that small, early moves decide whether you leave with the prize or empty pockets. Don’t waste time; the choices you make in the next ten minutes set the tone for the whole week.
Forza Horizon 6 Blast from the Past walkthrough
On a sun-baked roadside you notice how out-of-era the DeLorean looks amid Ferraris and hypercars. That visual mismatch is the whole point: this week’s Blast from the Past objective forces you to use the 1982 DeLorean DMC-12 for four short tasks, and finishing them nets 25,000 coins plus festival points that help your Horizon Decades progress.
How do I get the DeLorean in Forza Horizon 6?
If you already own the car, great — drive it and one task is done. If not, buy the 1982 DeLorean DMC-12 from the Autoshow for 72,000 credits. I usually open the Autoshow on Xbox (Playground Games / Xbox Game Studios support) or PC, search “DeLorean,” and pull the trigger. Once it’s yours, take it out of the garage and drive anywhere for the ownership/drive task to register.
How do I maintain 142 km/h for 10 seconds?
On a coastal straight you can easily hold steady speed because there are fewer turns and less traffic. Find a long, flat stretch of road—highway segments outside towns are ideal—and take care to keep the DeLorean’s speed at or above 142 km/h for a continuous 10 seconds. The game measures continuous speed, so avoid sharp braking or collisions. If you want a safer bet, draft behind a faster AI car briefly then peel out into open road to hold the pace.
How do I take a photo of my DeLorean?
At a roadside overlook, in a tunnel shaft of light, or next to a vintage sign — the game’s Photo Mode makes any frame usable. Press P on PC or open Photo Mode from the pause menu on controller, frame your shot, and save. Any saved photo completes the photo task, so you don’t need a perfect composition—just a saved capture.
How do I win a Road Race in the DeLorean?
On a winding country course you’ll feel the DMC-12’s limitations more than its charm. Pick any Road Race pinned on your map, travel there in the DeLorean, and enter. To clinch first place: use rewind sparingly, set race difficulty a notch lower if you’re struggling, and consider light tuning upgrades in the Autoshow’s tuning presets to improve handling. If you prefer a surgical approach, open the map and choose shorter or less technical Road Races to stack a quick win.
Pro tips that save time and nerves
At the festival hub you’ll notice players cycling between events; the fastest ones plan the order of tasks. I prefer this sequence: confirm ownership, take a quick photo while parked, hit a long straight for the speed timer, then finish with a Road Race. That flow minimizes back-and-forth and keeps momentum.
- Save time by buying the DeLorean early in your session so you can multitask with other Season objectives.
- Use Playground Games’ assist settings to make the Road Race winnable if you’re not tuned to mini-racing setups.
- If you stream or record on Xbox/PC, clip the moment you hit 10 seconds at 142 km/h — for bragging rights and evidence of completion.
The weekly reward is immediate: 25,000 coins and festival points to push your Horizon Decades progress. The DeLorean nods to Back to the Future, and that nostalgia pays off with a quick, focused set of tasks. The map turns into a treasure map for a few minutes—if you follow it cleanly you’ll sweep the objectives and be back to free roam. Will you grab the DeLorean and the points before the week expires?
