* Drivatar Difficulty: Any (preferably at least Highly Skilled for increased race rewards)

* Braking: ABS On or ABS Off

* Shifting: Manual or Manual w/ Clutch

* Driving Line: Braking Only or Off

** It is not controlled simply with the left stick (LS); right trigger (RT) must be held down to actually use the throttle. Left trigger (LT) activates the brakes and A activates the handbrake.

*** If the Braking setting is set to ABS Off, the brakes will lock if they are pressed too hard. Using this Braking setting correctly rewards the player with a faster race time, even more so in tandem with Manual shifting, with or without Clutch.

** It is much faster, with a maximum speed of {{convert|192|km/h|mph|sp=us}}. In addition, it is more stable due to the lack of four-wheel steering and is less prone to rolling over on rough terrain.

** The camera view can actually be changed by pressing right bumper (RB). There are six available camera views: Chase Near, Chase Far, Cockpit, Driver, Hood, and Bumper. The right stick (RS) allows the player to look around.

** Pressing the right stick activates the car horn, which is always the one that the player currently uses. To change the car horn, go to the Horizon Festival or any owned house and change it there.

** Depending on the Damage & Tire Wear setting, the Warthog will either not take any damage at all (None), take only cosmetic damage (Cosmetic), or risk having its mechanical parts take damage (Simulation), which results in the vehicle's condition being downgraded, consequently downgrading its performance due to broken parts.

** Using the Normal Steering setting is highly recommended, as this allows the player to more easily steer the vehicle. The Simulation Steering setting takes on a more realistic steering model that is much more unforgiving due to stronger countersteer; this setting is best attempted with a properly set up and calibrated steering wheel controller.

** Automatic shifting allows the player to view their minimap with the View button. With Manual shifting, the player must press X to shift down and B to shift up. The Manual w/ Clutch setting has the added requirement of pressing the clutch, mapped to left bumper (LB) by default, either at the same time as or immediately before pressing X or B. As with Simulation Steering, note that Manual w/ Clutch works best with a properly set up and calibrated steering wheel controller.

** Pressing Y rewinds the player back a certain distance. This is useful if the player accidentally misses a checkpoint or crashes into an obstacle. It is also entirely possible to disable Rewind through the Game Difficulty settings menu; doing so slightly increases the player's total credits payout.

* As with every other race event in the ''Forza Horizon'' series, when played in Co-Op, the first player to reach the finish line starts a 30 second countdown as a warning to the remaining players to finish the event as quickly as possible or risk getting a DNF with reduced race rewards.

* Raising the Drivatar difficulty setting results in the Marines in Warthogs driving faster, but does not prevent the player from completing the event in first place.

For this Showcase Event, you will be driving a stock (A 756) M12S Warthog CST and following a [[D79-TC Pelican]] to a landing zone. As soon as the Showcase Event starts, you will immediately be driving and following the Pelican, which is chased by [[D'nomlhe-pattern Banshee|Banshees]]. Unlike in ''Halo'', the Banshees never attack and only act as moving props. Checkpoint 1 is {{convert|480|ft|m|sigfig=3}} ahead. Make a right and immediately turn back to the left, but make sure to watch out for [[Covenant]] scenery props ([[Covenant supply case|supply cases]] and [[Covenant portable shield|stationary shield generators]]), as well as the race barriers. Unlike the race barriers used in other events, these race barriers are actually indestructible solid objects and made out of [[hard light]]. Checkpoint 2 is immediately ahead. Feel free to take in the beautiful scenery (including the [[Halo Array|Halo ring]] in the background), but focus on reaching the checkpoint up ahead, which leads to a ramp that will lead you to Bamburgh Castle. Make sure to have at least {{convert|140|km/h|mph|sp=us}} of speed upon approaching it to clear the gap. Note that missing a checkpoint triggers a five second warning to rewind; if this warning is ignored, you will be reset back a bit, even if rewind is disabled.

Once you reach the south end of the castle, you will exit it and encounter a [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] in another Warthog. He is actually controlled by Drivatar AI, meaning you can pass him for "Pass" skills or get behind him for "Drafting" skills, but you don't actually race against him or the other Marines in the event. However, the Marines can often get in your way, which can result in them crashing into you, so try to outmaneuver them.

You will have to take another detour by driving through the M68 right side tunnel, as the left side tunnel is closed off. Drive into the tunnel and max out your speed here, making sure to weave left and right to avoid Covenant scenery. Cortana will comment that the tunnel is "not a natural formation". About halfway through the tunnel, you will find a ramp and jump it. Upon landing, you will inevitably destroy some scenery objects, including orange road fences for "Road Open" skills. However, always be careful of blue hard light small fences on the ground, as these cannot be driven over due to the game giving them the same height as standard walls.

Exit off of the M68 and make a left to reach Checkpoint 13. You can shortcut the next few curves by braking and making a sharp left and gunning straight for Checkpoint 14, but once again, steer clear of Covenant scenery. Continue following the path to Checkpoint 15, which is just ahead, placed right before the final ramp. At this point, you will actually max out the Warthog's speed at {{convert|194|km/h|mph|sp=us}}.

Jump the ramp to trigger the last slow-motion cutscene in which two Banshees fly through. At this point, you should actually be jumping over the Pelican, but only for a very brief period of time. Once you land, you will get an "Ultimate Air" skill with a trade off of a loss of speed, which should be more than enough for you to avoid immediately crashing into the hard light barriers in front of you. Note that the Pelican can be touched, like with all other opponent vehicles featured in the other Showcase Events, so try not to touch it or you will lose too much speed. Continue following the path until you reach a small valley of rocks that leads to the beach south of Elmsdon-on-Sea.

Steer to the left to reach Checkpoint 16, and immediately use full throttle to reach the finish line, which is at the landing zone just ahead. There are three pairs of blue/purple checkpoint flares just ahead, with the last one marking the finish line is. Drive through them to finish the event.

You should get an average race time of 03:15.000. Note that you can never run out of time in this event, despite what the dialogue from Cortana may otherwise suggest.
