Spring rewards and fastest 40-point route
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Spring window | August 6-13, 2026 |
| Weekly reset | Thursday 09:30 ET / 06:30 PT |
| Season points | 53 points available |
| 20-point reward | 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder |
| 40-point reward | 2021 Pagani Huayra R |
| Series 3 rewards | 2024 Lamborghini Temerario at 80/212; 2022 Ferrari 296 GTB at 160/212 |
| Fastest 40-point route | Start with The Trial, both seasonal championships, Festival Kilometer Drag Meet, the three Ferrari PR stunts, Horizon Play Racing, and Horizon Stunt Party, then use quick map tasks to finish the gap. |
20 points unlocks the first Spring car, and 40 points unlocks the second. Every Spring point also feeds the Series 3 total, so extra cleanup still counts toward the series rewards.
Do The Trial and both seasonal championships first; they carry the biggest point chunks, and the remaining cleanup becomes much more flexible.

Use the checklist to catch each car restriction before you launch an event. The Fiat weekly chain sits outside the main Italian Exotics route, so start it when the Spring card asks for the Abarth run.
Abarth Fiat 131 weekly challenge route
When the weekly card is active for the Abarth Fiat 131, stay in that car and complete the full chain until the points pop. The Trailblazer step works stock, but repeat the runs for more stars if the car is not upgraded.
What you need first
How to clear the Spring playlist challenge run in Forza Horizon 6
Clear the Abarth requirements first, then knock out the fast map challenges while you are already moving across Japan.
STEP 1/18
Get the Abarth Fiat 131
Pick the Abarth Fiat 131 from your garage, or buy it cheaply if you do not already own it.
STEP 2/18
Pick a Trailblazer
Open the Trailblazer events and bank four total stars with the Abarth Fiat 131.
STEP 3/18
Finish the Trailblazer stars
Re-run Trailblazers until the fourth star counts; one or two stars per run still advances the objective.
STEP 4/18
Filter to Dirt Racing
Filter the map to Dirt Racing events and choose a short race for the Abarth Fiat 131.
STEP 5/18
Start the dirt race solo
Use the custom race flow, choose solo, and select the Fiat when the event asks for your car.
STEP 6/18
Win two dirt races
Win two Dirt Racing events in the Fiat. Lower the difficulty if the car is slowing down the route.
STEP 7/18
Begin Ultimate Wreckage
Drive into an area packed with breakable objects and start smashing fences or small scenery in quick succession.
STEP 8/18
Keep the wreckage chain alive
Hit fences, trees, walls, and other breakables with short gaps between impacts so the chain reaches Ultimate Wreckage.
STEP 9/18
Bank the third Ultimate Wreckage
Bank three Ultimate Wreckage skills to clear the Daily Challenge: Ultimate Wreckage objective.
STEP 10/18
Switch into a Lamborghini
Switch to a fast Lamborghini before starting Rainbow Run.
STEP 11/18
Mark Rainbow Run
Filter to speed traps and mark Rainbow Run on the highway.
STEP 12/18
Take a longer run-up
Turn around and build speed before the trap instead of starting right beside it.
STEP 13/18
Clear Rainbow Run
Blast through Rainbow Run fast enough for three stars to complete the Lamborghini challenge.
STEP 14/18
Go to Sotoyama Ski Resort
Take any Lamborghini to the photo spot at Sotoyama Ski Resort on the mountain.
STEP 15/18
Take the Lamborghini photo
Open photo mode with the Lamborghini in frame and take the shot to finish the photo challenge.
STEP 16/18
Read the treasure clue
Read the clue pointing to a tree in the Takashiro region.
STEP 17/18
Travel to Takashiro
Fast travel to the Takashiro region spot tied to the clue.
STEP 18/18
Smash the treasure chest
Drive through the chest at the Takashiro location to complete the treasure hunt.
Video help
Rainbow Run, photo challenge, treasure hunt, and daily cleanup
Ultimate Wreckage daily challenge
Ultimate Wreckage comes from chained destruction, not single isolated hits. If the skill text stops climbing, pause for a moment and restart the chain in another row of breakable objects.
Rainbow Run in a Lamborghini
Rainbow Run is easiest from a long highway approach in a Lamborghini with strong top speed. Traffic can ruin the attempt, so turn around and take another pass instead of forcing the run from a bad angle.
Sotoyama Ski Resort photo challenge
The photo challenge only needs a Lamborghini in frame at Sotoyama Ski Resort. Use the mountain resort location for the shot, not the nearby treasure area.
Takashiro treasure hunt
The treasure hunt ends when the chest is physically smashed in the Takashiro region. Reaching the clue area is not enough; line up the car and break the chest.
Ferrari PR stunts and Lamborghini Huracán Meet targets
| Event | Car | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Kōzokudōro Speed Zone | S1 800 Ferrari | 321 km/h |
| Takashiro Bridge Speed Trap | S1 800 Ferrari | 265 km/h |
| Nukabira Turn Drift Zone | S1 800 Ferrari | 64,000 drift score |
| Festival Kilometer Drag Meet | S1 800 Lamborghini | 18.000 seconds or faster |
Most PR stunt cleanup belongs to a Ferrari S1 800, while the drag race switches to a Lamborghini S1 800. If an event does not complete, check the brand and class pairing before repeating the target.
For Festival Kilometer Drag Meet, a missed time means the car needs more speed. Pick the quickest eligible Lamborghini you have, or tune one to the S1 800 cap before trying again.
Seasonal championships and online playlist events
| Event | Requirement | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Out of the Loop! | B 600 Buggies & Offroad; Dirt Racing. | 5 points + 2022 Maserati MC20 |
| It’s Snow Problem At All | A 700 Utility Heroes; Cross Country. | 5 points + Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 |
| The Trial | A 700 Alfa Romeo; Road Racing on Ito Sprint, Tokyo Railway Sprint, and Highway Circuit. | 10 points + Ferrari reward |
| Horizon Play Racing | Complete a Spec Racing Championship. | 3 points + Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione |
| Horizon Stunt Party | Finish any Stunt Party. | 3 points + Wah Wah Wahhh car horn |
The two seasonal championships are three-race sets, while The Trial is the larger co-op PvE race set. The Trial gives the SF90 Stradale Ferrari reward, and Horizon Play Racing gives the 2007 8C Competizione Alfa Romeo reward.
Spec Racing Championship only asks for completion, so drive cleanly to the finish instead of resetting for a win. Horizon Stunt Party is just as flexible because any Stunt Party counts.
Spring playlist mistakes to avoid
The fastest way to waste time is bringing the right performance class in the wrong brand. The Ferrari restriction covers the three PR stunt targets, but Festival Kilometer Drag Meet needs Lamborghini, and The Trial needs Alfa Romeo.
Do not stop at the first seasonal reward if you still need Series 3 progress, and do not skip the larger events when you still need the reward line. Old Series 2 Horizon Decades routes from July 9-16, 2026 are outdated because Spring now uses the Series 3 Italian Exotics playlist, and AFK Auto Drive or Estate Skill Point exploit plans are patched out in Series 3.
If Rainbow Run keeps missing three stars, take more road before the trap or swap to a faster Lamborghini. If the Abarth Fiat 131 Trailblazer chain feels slow, keep banking partial stars instead of trying to force all four in one attempt.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you reach 40 points without completing every Spring event?
Yes. Spring has enough spare activities that you can reach the second seasonal reward without clearing the whole card, especially if you complete The Trial, both championships, the PR stunts, and the online completion events first.
Do Spring playlist points still count toward the Series 3 Lamborghini Temerario and Ferrari 296 GTB rewards?
Yes. Spring points feed the same Series 3 total that unlocks the Lamborghini Temerario and Ferrari 296 GTB, so late-week cleanup still helps even after the seasonal cars are done.
What should you do if the Festival Kilometer Drag Meet is too slow with a stock Lamborghini?
Switch to the fastest eligible S1 800 Lamborghini you have, or tune the current car up to the class cap before rerunning it. A stock Gallardo run can miss the time even when the launch is clean.
