Car: 2010 Pagani Zonda R
Race: Goliath (Finale - Top middle of the map)
Recommended Tune: "S2 AWD" by "FRP Mididouze"

This car should be given for free to anyone who has the DLC. After grabbing it, make sure to install the proper tune/upgrades.

Before starting the race, make sure you go to Progress, Skill Shop and purchase the Pull Rank skill in order to start the race in first position.

Also, before the race starts, make sure you create a custom blueprint using Stunt Swap and choose the Boost Jump stunt for both possible stunts as it will allow you to complete the track most quickly.

You can check yourself against the clock by using these two "landmark" moments:
- Loop-the-Loop - Maximum of 2:10
- Jump between buildings - Maximum of 4:20

Now complete the race as fast as you can to earn the achievement. Make sure that you use your brake, and feel free to use the braking line as an aid. You should be able to easily complete this track in under 6:30.

6"29'350 in the first run. Got the achievement after the scoreboard as usual.
The pull rank perk did not work. I'm guessing because the first run is part of the "story".
I was on 2"15 at the loop and on 4"27 at the jump.

Thanks for the guide! :D

By JJ1edzep on 14 May 2017 22:18

Just letting everyone know you can't use Stunt Swap, nor Pull Rank the first time you complete the Goliath event. You can only use them after you've completed it once.

By FightingMegaFoo on 14 May 2017 23:39

With your guide knocked off over 20 sec from my best time,did it in 6:17

By BIGFOOT201191 on 09 Jun 2017 12:53

This guide helped out a lot, I came in at 6:15

By pizzle21 on 12 Jun 2017 07:10

You can also do it as part of a championship race, although for whatever reason it didn't pop until about 30 seconds after going back to the map

By NegativeCreep08 on 14 Jun 2017 13:24

Maka, I love you bro, Thanks a ton for this.

By StagRay on 05 Jul 2017 08:47

Done it 3 times now as a championship and it didn't unlock :(

By C0LOURMEGREY on 12 Jul 2017 20:39

i can use "FRP Mididouze" tue it comes up incompatible parts for some unknown reason best time i could get was 6.44 i think i need some more laps to perfect this i need less banging into the walls

By KILLANEYROCKS on 27 Jul 2017 06:54

Worked like a charm first time...thanks!

By JJ DANG3R on 28 Aug 2017 02:19

After getting a 6:30:37 (6:26:13 lap time) on my first attempt with my own tune I decided to check the solutions. By using Pull Rank not only do you start at the front, but you are given a 3 second head start! With the same car, clear weather and Boost Jump stunts I got 6:14:88 (6:13:21 lap time).

By HolyHalfDead on 19 Nov 2017 01:21

6:17, awesome!

By Kenzibit on 31 Dec 2017 02:43

6:22:619 on the first try! hehe thanks!

By GTDpowered on 03 Jan 2018 12:49

6:09 here! Did it in a championship FYI to anyone wondering still if that works 😁 Thanks!

Edit: forgot to mention used Don J's tune. Not sure if that had helped shave any additional time off or not. Love his tunes 😝

By zDrUnKeNMoNkEyz on 01 Feb 2018 09:05

great guide, 6:08 and I feel like I messed up a lot :)

By Redsleey on 11 Feb 2018 15:34

Thanks! Used Don Jewong Song's tune instead and got a 6:02!

By wilder782 on 02 Mar 2018 23:01

Thanks, disabling the rain really helped me

06:24:119

By tajbender on 09 Mar 2018 22:14

6:02.425 and that was with a lot of wall rubbing.

By mosin360 on 30 Mar 2018 22:27

Thanks Maka, nailed this first time thanks to the guide, 6:29 but they all count!

By x SNAKE5 x on 25 Aug 2018 17:44

I did 6:26 in the normal event first and it didn't pop. Then did a 6:11 in a blueprint and it worked. Weird.

By FullNietzsche on 23 Dec 2018 23:07

Done this a couple times now all under 6:30 but it hasn't popped?

By Fondle my Sheep on 18 Jan 2019 04:15

06:06.603 using the tune by "Don Joewon Song".

By Ombroodle on 06 Oct 2019 19:03

Thanks for the guide, done in 6:23 and popped.

By MAJICO70 on 13 Sep 2020 12:26

thx mate. beat it at 5:59:024

A lot easier than I thought :D

By Tchuck11 on 13 Sep 2020 23:51

I was really having trouble with this one. Turned on all the assists and got it.

By Ganesh78 on 05 Oct 2020 00:55

Thanks, 6.14 while driving terribly!

By Broton69 on 30 Nov 2020 08:11

6.24, while driving terribly and didn't get "pull rank". thanks for the pointers. cheers, mate.

By NightRobin on 03 Mar 2021 11:26

First try 6:09 even without the Pull Rank. Great help, thank you

By iCharlie17 on 16 Oct 2021 16:24

Thanks for the guide. Just a note, the first time you are doing the hot wheels goliath race, you can't create a blueprint.

By NZT21 on 13 Nov 2021 13:45

- Very useful, thanks, +1

- Muy útil, gracias, +1

By InviernoCero2 on 14 Aug 2022 12:44

This solution made everything easy , done in 6:20 m . THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

By PirS92 on 19 Dec 2023 21:55

6:13 seconds first time with a few wall rubs this solution works perfectly fine no need to go looking for other tunes or anything. Just follow this. Upvote.

By FiveWizz on 02 Nov 2018 12:38

I believe you might not be able to do it in the normal event as it is part of a series rather than a one off Blueprint race. I finished that event in the campaign and then came back to do it as a blueprint for the achievement

I strongly recommend to auto upgrade to S2, do a drive-train swap to AWD and add the twin turbo upgrade. This transforms the car into a much faster car than standard.

I would also recommend buying the perk 'Pull Rank' for 10 perk points, this will start you at the front of the line up meaning you will save time getting passed the slow AI.

It has been reported now that if you run a time of under 6:30 in the original event, the achievement will unlock.

It is possible and easiest to get the achievement using a blueprint one, which unlocks after completing the race for the first time.

Once blueprints are unlocked, change the weather to clear, time to early afternoon, swap the stunts for jumps, this will make life a lot easier.

If you hit a barrier or lose grip, re-wind and brake a bit, it saves a lot more time by braking compared to hitting the wall, those few seconds are crucial.

You should be at around 4:15-4:25 minutes when you take the skyscraper jump to finish comfortably in under 6:30. Good luck, keep trying and you will get it!

Swapping out the first blue stunt for a loop-the-loop will cut back time as well. It's a much faster stunt than the default spiral.

By namr3h on 10 May 2017 04:31

4:25 at the skyscraper stunt is definetly enough. got it with around 6:25 after that.

By TONI III04 on 10 May 2017 13:13

yes Toni, I was on 4:15 and finished in 6:13 on my first attempt with blueprint version. on my first attempt using the light rain I finished in 6:32 with a standard zonda, I think you could break 6 minutes on this track in this car

By DanAsker on 10 May 2017 13:44

Remember to buy your credit bonus perks for this race.

By ChockaShocka on 11 May 2017 13:36

Do you have to use your own blueprint to unlock this achievement? I did a 6:27 on the playground games Goliath event and no achievement popped. Glitched?

By IX Tom III on 11 May 2017 17:31

it needs to be either the regular race from single player or the blueprint version

By DanAsker on 11 May 2017 18:33

@Go On Thome - same here, first run at this race since I just unlocked it. Jumped in the Zonda R and nailed a 6:27 first try. Got the cheevo for completing Goliath, but not this one. Will give it another run in a bit.

By S1yfa on 11 May 2017 18:53

Yeah, ran it again and popped. I think the achievement is worded poorly. I believe it is looking for sub 6:30 total race time, not lap time.

By S1yfa on 11 May 2017 19:50

I used the Zonda R when i first unlocked the Goliath event and ran a 6.28, but the achievement didn't pop. I think this has to be done after you have already won the Goliath once.

Just finished doing a blue print 'Hot Lap' and got the achievement. 6.13s

By oO NiGhTbAsE Oo on 11 May 2017 22:21

I've updated the main text to say that it is not possible on your first attempt, thanks guys

By DanAsker on 11 May 2017 22:26

Unlocked this on my first attempt at the goliath race, so you don't have to complete it twice, if you get the required time obviously.

By Merlinated on 11 May 2017 23:07

@Merlinated, did you have a lap time of <6:30 or total time?

By DanAsker on 12 May 2017 00:18

Confirming it does unlock if you choose to do it as part of a Championship. No reason it shouldn't but the Wild Card! achievement only unlocks in a single race and not as part of a championship so I thought it was worth mentioning.

By illdizzog on 12 May 2017 05:33

Got it first attempt, 6.25 lap time (6.28 race time). I did NOT use the perk to start at the front.

By NMANOZ on 12 May 2017 09:37

I believe I got a 6 18 lap time and a 6 22 race time, why the lap time is 4 seconds quicker I have no idea considering its a 1 lap race.

By Merlinated on 12 May 2017 11:45

I also didn't use the perk to start at the front, if that helps.

By Merlinated on 12 May 2017 11:45

@Merlinated Its normally because your race starts before you cross the start to let you gather speed.

By Bonxy on 13 May 2017 08:53

I just beat it with 6:17 lap time. No pop, it was blueprint. Wonder if it needs to be total race time

By Droptima on 14 May 2017 05:19

Wow, much easier than I expected. Did my conversion and auto upgraded to X class and finished in 06:03.

By Yin on 21 May 2017 20:52

6.05 for me using this on first attempt - thanks :)

By Iron Man TStark on 04 Jun 2017 13:14

I had to negative this solution just for telling people not to waste their time trying first time. When you can get it first time and you're wasting more time by playing a 6 minute race more than needed.

By Sighris on 24 Jun 2017 04:34

By HolyHalfDead on 19 Nov 2017 01:16

I looked for the blue print option the very first time I tried this race abut it was not there. Only after I won the race, (and after a bunch of video fireworks and when all the other championships unlocked, then there was an option for me to blue print my onw race.

You have a good idea to swap out a section of the track but I would use the jump instead of a loop-the-loop. First of all a jump is obviously much shorter distance-wise than a loop, but more importantly, the jump includes a speed booster. In fact you should make sure you have both optional jumps put in.

By Runner7922 on 10 May 2017 17:00

I had used the perk but it didn't start me at the front. Upgraded Zonda makes quick work of the field in any case, and I got it in about 6:18 I believe it was, regular Goliath track played as the final Hot Wheels event, nothing special - no rewinds, no assists.

By Schinderdiv on 12 May 2017 17:16

I just got the achievement on my very first run, not blueprinted. 6:27 time, since I didn't think it would work on my first run. Possible it was patched in an update. And for those wondering, it's total race time, not lap time. (Total race time is from when your car starts moving at start, but lap time only starts when you cross the line at the start). Didn't use the perk, did rewind once or twice.

The 2010 Pagani Zonda R is a free purchase from the Autoshow. Now you need to upgrade the car with the proper tune/upgrades. A good upgrade to have is one by FRP Mididouze, so go to upgrades then load upgrade from here find FRP Mididouze. You can press your button and search that way if you can them (put the name in creator). Now you need to do the Goliath final, but it’s not unlocked until you have 100 medals. Before starting the race, make sure you go to progress, skill shop, and purchase the pull rank skill to start the race in first position. Also, be sure to create a custom blueprint that uses a stunt swap and also choose a boost jump stunt for both of the stunts. Now complete the race under 6.30 minutes to earn the achievement.

Thanks to FRP Mididouze for the upgrade and Maka91 for the video.

Just like in the tips above, don’t forget to create your own race and change the trick to “acceleration jump” so that you don’t have to drive again for almost 7 minutes
