How to unlock the Clever Girl! achievement in Forza Horizon 3 - Definitive Guide

This was so much easier after I tuned my car to perfection. I was able to complete 6 different PR Stunts with 3-star ratings. Just a "heads up", I have all festival locations upgraded to at least level 4 so if one of the places I mentioned isn't there for you, that's why. I used 2 different tunes for this achievement. For the Drift Zones I used my tune named "Throwing Weight" and the description says "Throw Your Weight Achievement." For the Danger Signs and Speed Zone I used my tune named "Clever Girl!" and the description says "Clever Girl! Achievement." You can also search for the tunes using my gamertag. As Calex dEUS noted below, you must be using the standard 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor to get these tunes and complete the achievement (thank you). All of the locations I chose were super easy and never took more than 1 try after using these tunes.

Locations:
Rainforest Reveal Danger Sign
Shipwreck Danger Sign
Byron’s Leap Danger Sign
Silver Sands Drift Zone
Kiewa Valley Drift Zone
Central Yarra Speed Zone
Gold Mine Danger Sign (AussieBigfoot)
Gold Mine Speed Trap (AussieBigfoot)
Hilltop Speed Trap (AussieBigfoot)
North Arid Plains Speed Zone (NMANOZ)
South Arid Plains Speed Zone (NMANOZ)

I hope I helped :)

EDIT: Thanks Calex dEUS, AussieBigfoot, and NMANOZ for the additions. I provided the best tunes and locations I have come across thus far to finish this achievement easily, but if you have a problem please reach out to me before downvoting.

Oh it should be mentioned you have to search using the 1st Raptor, it think it's blue the 2017 Raptor race truck wont return the tunings in a search.

I'm having trouble getting 3 stars on the drift zones even with the tuning setup. When drifting, do you use the e-brake or just turn and let it drift naturally? Also do you have driving aids on or off?

I start out fast and shift the movement with quick oversteer. After, to continue the drift, I use my handbrake to change directions.

I'd also recommend:
Gold Mine Danger Sign (3* @ 99m)
Gold Mine Speed Trap (3* @ 217km/h)
Hilltop Speed Trap (3* @ 209Km/h)

I found temporarily switching back to auto transmission and normal steering to help with the drifting related achievements.

Nice achievement name btw :)

For the record, as ridiculous as this is to write, be sure to select the 2017 F-150 Ford Raptor NOT the 2017 F-150 Ford Raptor Racing Truck. Albeit the same exact truck and stats, the cheevo will not track nor unlock. I did this the hard way. So be sure to purchase the 2017 F-150 Ford Raptor!

@Caffeu

This achievement is not missable. You have to 3 star five different PR stunts to get it but the achievement does track with 20%/stunt. I just got this achievement after having previously 3 starred every PR stunt already.

I used Rainforest Reveal Danger Sign, Shipwreck Danger Sign, and Hilltop Speed Trap like listed above, but then my other three were the following:
Maroondah Road Speed Trap (150mph)
Reservoir Speed Trap (125mph)
I used v SATAN x's tune and then found these to be MUCH easier than any of the others listed above, though maybe I'm just losing some of my skill in my old age smile

Outback Trail Drift Zone (45,000 points for 3 stars) is another good one. It was mentioned in Maka's guide for Throwing Your Weight Around, and that was what I used for that achievement as well.

Also - does it count if you already have 3 stars on any of these?

Up vote from me, great tunes. I just wanted to point out to anybody that may have been worried like me that doing PR stunts that already have 3 stars would not count. They do actually still count because it is a new car that is performing the stunt.

@V satan x If you want to add that to the guide to let people know and think its missable. Cheerssleep

Got it with:

The shipwreck jump would not work for me at all.

Great tips and tune, but I've found that unless I beat my high score, it wont count as three stars for the achievement! So frustrating as I've already beaten everything with better cars than this!!

*Edit: apparently achievement tracking stopped after 20% and it just unlocked now

Another easy one is the Level Crossing Speed Trap at the north of the map. Don’t go on the road, instead drive on the railway line and swerve into the speed trap at the last moment.

river split danger sign is a good one just need a long run up and may have to rewind a few times to make sure you dont hit trees at end. east outback speed zone is decent to. i struggled with drift zones in this truck tried several differant tunes. just couldnt get the points, also didnt help that traffic was thick most times i tried

Rainforest Reveal location: On the map, zoom all the way out, find RAINFOREST area about 3 inches to the right (east) of the south part of MAROONDAH RESERVOIR which is a big lake, & Rainforest Reveal is about 1/4 inch northeast of the letter "T" in the name "RAINFOREST".

The tunes made this pretty doable. The drift one still took me 45 minutes because the game insists on quadrupling the amount of npc cars any time I'm trying to do something angry

thanks, and thanks for adding others' sites, worked good. As a super terrible drifter who's also not much good at landing jumps wheels-down, this still took a good number of tries for me:

Shipwreck danger sign
Goldmine danger sign
Central Yarra speed zone
North Arid Plains speed zone
Hilltop speed trap

2 of these I'd already hit 3 stars, did not beat my high score but saw the barely-enough number pop up - and it worked.

Tried the drift tune a dozen times, not even close on any of them yet - almost got 2 stars on Silver Sands drift zone

The previous solutions are all solid, however, I did mine slightly differently. I managed to get 3 stars on all but a few speed zones. None of my fastest cars could stick to the road on these three in Byron Bay:

- Byron Plains Speed Zone
- Switchback Lakes Speed Zone
- Rough Terrain Speed Zone

If you search under my gamer tag I built three high quality tunes for this truck called 'OFF ROAD', 'DRIFT' and 'ROAD'

With the ROAD or OFF ROAD tune I managed to get my 3 stars on them and finish this achievement! As it turns out, this truck has enough power and weight to stick to the road better than a full upgraded Ariel Nomad and I finally got them. So after two easy 3 star achievements in this truck I got the Clever Girl and finished off three hard to complete Speed Zones.

Addition to v SATAN x's Guide:

Use v SATAN x's tunings. Search under Creator (v SATAN x). Throw Weight Around is for the drifts and Clever Girl! is for the 3 Star PR.

PR Stunts that have already been 3 Star can be used again, just once again pass the 3 Star Goal.

Also if you're having trouble with traffic, make a Private Online Freeroam session :) It reduces the traffic and gets rid of the Drivatars.

This is easier than it first seems and for those of you who can’t drift (like me) it can be done with 5 danger signs quite easily. I used Don Joewon Songs tune and did the following jumps.

Gold mine
Shipwreck
Byron’s leap
Rainforest reveal
And finally the only one that’s a bit tricky is Waterfall.
The first 4 are quite easy if you are having trouble there are a couple of relatively low speed traps. Gold mine is not a hard one.

Hi just another tip. I did this with the Horizon Edition version at first and then spotted it has to be the original Raptor truck. I thought I'd try one of the clever girl tunes and do the Danger signs. However I had trouble, couldn't tell if the tune was for drifts, jumps or speed.
So I did my own. I found it easiest to do speed traps and zones in and around the Byron bay area and towards the rainforest area. Just search for the ones with the lowest speed required for the 3 star achievement.

It is easier in a private session as there is less traffic.
For the speed traps try to have a straight run as possible to the speed camera. Approach from the side that has the the longest road or clear straight route to it, the map should show this.
You might need to start off road, on the grass or amongst the trees. So long as you have enough distance to get up to speed it should be easy.

For the speed zones again one way will have a straighter approach if you check the map. Generally if you can enter the speed zone a good 10-20mph above the average required you should average out ok. If there is a bend or 2 try lifting of the gas and then turn sharply rather than using the brake to keep your speed up. Just tap the brake a little if struggling to make the turn.... But you can still cut the corner a little bit if possible to keep your speed up.

Use my tune Clevergirl Speed for this as the acceleration and turning are better than usual and you should have it done in no time.

This can only be done with the actual 2017 Raptor (default a blue truck). There is also an SVT Raptor (orange with striping) but that is the wrong car. For this, I found two tunes created by gamertag "v satan x"; one tune makes the car weigh more than 2500kg, the other tune makes it go really fast and jump really far. Download both tunes and install any one of them for either a fast Raptor or a heavy Raptor.

The best locations to get this are:

  • Rainforest Reveal Danger Sign
  • Shipwreck Danger Sign
  • Byron’s Leap Danger Sign
  • Gold Mine Danger Sign
  • Outback Trail Drift Zone
  • Silver Sands Drift Zone
  • Kiewa Valley Drift Zone
  • Gold Mine Speed Trap
  • Hilltop Speed Trap
  • Central Yarra Speed Zone
  • North Arid Plains Speed Zone
  • South Arid Plains Speed Zone

If you make it rear-wheel drive and pump up the power, then it is quite possible to achieve an achievement in drift zones. (at the same time, get a trophy for drifting in a car weighing 2500 kg). The Raptor also easily obeys radars outside asphalt roads.
