The truck sits on the start line, engine growling, and the cliff jump glares back like a dare. You feel the festival timer ticking in the corner of your screen. One small mistake and those credits evaporate—one smart move and the Mazda Furai inches closer.
I spent an hour testing angles, brakes, and ramps so you don’t have to. Read this and you’ll finish Guts. Glory. Ram. with minimal retries and maximum festival points.
You can see the Welcome to Japan banners from the map and they promise quick rewards. Forza Horizon 6 Guts. Glory. Ram. challenge walkthrough
The weekly lists four readable tasks: own and drive the 2024 Ram 1500 TRX, earn three-star Danger Sign jumps, collect five Great Wreckage skills, and win a Cross Country race. Do them in the Ram and the festival hands out credits, points, and progress toward the Mazda Furai.
A free starter reward shows up in the Horizon event menu before you even open the garage. Own and drive the 2024 Ram 1500 TRX
Open the event card for Welcome to Japan. If you’re new, the Ram is a starter Horizon reward; you can claim it at no credits cost. If you missed that, the truck is available for purchase with in-game credits—avoid wasting real-world money because the prize track is quick if you tackle the tasks in order.
How do I get the 2024 Ram 1500 TRX?
Claim it from the Welcome to Japan starter event in the Horizon menu. If it’s not in your garage, buy it with credits or check the Autoshow — but remember, the event route usually grants it for free during the festival window.
Danger signs are scattered across the map and show up as a small jump icon when you zoom in. Earn 3 Stars at Danger Signs
Pick any Danger Sign, drive the Ram toward the cliff, and hit the ramp. Three stars = pass the distance threshold. The Ram’s weight helps; you need speed and a straight approach to avoid losing distance mid-flight. It feels like threading a needle with a sledgehammer.
Where are the Danger Signs and how do I hit three stars?
Open the map and search the jump icons. For three stars, carry steady speed, straighten the truck before the lip, and avoid mid-air corrections. If your landing shows two stars, increase entry speed by roughly 10–20% and retry.
Cliffs and broken scenery are plentiful near coastlines and quarries; that’s where wreckage skills stack fastest. Earn five Great Wreckage Skills
Wreckage skills come from smashing through environmental objects—cars, fences, or falling onto clusters of junk. For Great wreckage specifically, you want mid-height drops: too small and you only get Wreckage, too big and you’ll trigger Ultimate Wreckage. The consistent method is controlled cliff drops that flip or bury your truck without total annihilation.
The wreckage score stacks as tidy as a mechanic’s socket set, so set up a repeatable spot and grind five Greats in a couple of runs.
How do I get Great Wreckage skills reliably?
Find a low-to-medium cliff near cars or rubble, approach at moderate speed, angle to clip a car cluster on the far side, and hit the drop. If you keep getting Ultimate, reduce entry speed or choose a slightly lower ledge. Avoid ramming traffic on flat ground; that usually yields only Wreckage.
Cross Country races often start on rough trails and finish in the open; check the map for the orange chevron icon. Win a Cross Country Race
Choose a Cross Country event from the map, enter while driving the Ram, and race. The TRX handles rough trails well with stock dirt tires. If you want an easier win, tweak the car into Class B or A depending on the event level—matching the class to the race gives you a measurable advantage on those narrow trails.
Do I need to keep driving the Ram 1500 TRX to complete the challenge?
Yes. Each task requires you to be in the Ram when it completes. Swap cars between tasks only after the objective is recorded; otherwise progress won’t count.
I used Xbox Series X and the in-game tuning presets available in Forza Horizon 6 to test approaches; Playground Games’ physics were consistent across attempts, so if something works for me it will work for you. Ready to risk a few jumps to nab the Mazda Furai, or will you play it safe and miss the festival prize?
