[/p][p]Ride all the way to Valhalla in the 2023 Aston Martin Valkyrie, the British F1 experience super car fitted with a V12 which Aston Martin calls “a marvel.” Teaming up with modern glory is a blast from the past; the 1939 Maserati 8CTF completes this pair with its retro charm.
[/p][p][/p][p]Their opponents start with a car built and bred for the track. Rejoice in the sound of the 2008 Koenigsegg CCGT’s 5.0-liter V8 engine and its supreme aerodynamic design. A different type of retro ride wraps up this week’s battle; the 2016 Hot Wheels 2Jetz is a jet-powered car designed to drag race and stunt on the orange tracks! [/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]This week you get the chance to catch a white whale as the 2019 Porsche #70 Porsche Motorsport 935 becomes available to unlock once again as this week’s 20 PTS reward. Kindly nicknamed “Moby Dick”, this car will have you chasing (and achieving) impossible times around the roads of the Horizon Festival. You can see Porsche heritage in the 935’s rear wing endplate LEDs (taken from the 919 Hybrid LMP1), side mirrors taken (from the 911 RSR), and the tailpipes (modelled after the 1968 908) among other historic details. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]A 3.8-litre 6-cylinder twin-turbo engine (also seen in previous Porsche masterpieces) gives the car 700 bhp to toy with around the track and the new aerodynamic design sticks the car close to the ground for maximum grip.  [/p][p]Write your legacy in the 2019 Porsche #70 Porsche Motorsport 935! [/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p]SERIES REWARDS     [/p]

We Host a Muscle Showdown at the Horizon Backstage!

[p]Get ready for the rodeo taking place during the next seven days at the Horizon Backstage! All four cars come from the US and are eager to flex their engines to get your vote. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Can you hear the rumbling of the massive 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine galloping into the ring? It belongs to the first car joining this week’s competition – none other than the 2024 Ford Mustang GT. To complete Team Ford’s lineup, we have recruited a prehistoric road companion – roar your way through Horizon Mexico in the 2019 Ford Ranger Raptor.  [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]He is the night, he is vengeance, he is starting the lineup for this week’s second team, it’s the V8-powered 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. The second car featured in this team is the 1972 Chevrolet K10 Custom, a 4x4 pickup truck almost exclusive to collectors. [/p][p]Cast your vote today! [/p][p][/p][p][/p]

Can You Take the Porsche 911 R to Its Limit?

[p]Track day gets a whole new meaning with the 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 R, an endurance racing champion. [/p][p]Racing runs in this car’s DNA, and it was built to perform in almost any type of event, starting with endurance championships and extending to drag and street racing. [/p][p][/p][p]A car with this type of heritage and design philosophy couldn’t fall short in the power department. The 911 R passes the test with flying colors, thanks to its flat-six, 4.2-liter engine that produces 565 bhp. [/p][p]Optimization did not stop at the engine. Porsche also modified the suspension to improve the driving experience and tire duration. Body modifications improve airflow and downforce. All that’s missing is a driver daring enough to take this car to the limit. If you're ready, you can unlock it for 20 PTS until October 30. [/p][p]These are all the rewards coming to Forza Horizon 5 starting this week. [/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p]
