Another week and here we are with the Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon September 26th event. This week you can earn an extra 100 (or 200 with the VIP house) #Forzathon Points — this time in the 2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS! This Forza Horizon 4 #Forzathon event started today, September 26th, at 7:30 a.m. PT and closes at 7:30 a.m. PT on October 3rd.
Before we begin, however, the latest Series 14 Anniversary Update also brings 12 new achievements worth 250GS to the game. While some revolve around Season completions, a few others are centred around the last Top Gear content update. The new achievements and relative Gamerscore are:

If you haven’t purchased the game yet, you can do so from the button below or play it through the Xbox Game Pass.

As for the Horizon Summer Season, 50% completion will snag you the Legendary McLaren 600LT while 80% completion — tasks, races, PR Stunts, Season Events, and Trials on Great Britain (not Fortune Island or LEGO Valley) — will net you the Legendary 2005 Honda NSX-R.
