How to unlock the Rockin' Horse achievement in Forza Horizon 3 - Definitive Guide

The car is already set up to drift. I just threw it around the airport for about 10 minutes performing ultimate drifts till it popped.

It's possible to do some Hoonigan challenges without the Hoonigan DLC pack by using community bucket list challenges. Add the person's gamertag to your friends list. For me, the bucket lists didn't show up until about a day later, even after restarting the game.


Car - Hoonicorn
Time - 30 minutes
GamerTag - daqqer2k
Bucket List Point - West Byron Bay (Southeast)

Cars - Twerkstallion, RS1800, Hoonicorn, Nova, 911, Loki
Time - 30 minutes
GamerTag - Don Joewon Song
Bucket List Point - South Surfers Paradise (Northeast)

Car - Hoonicorn
Time - 30 minutes
GamerTag - daqqer2k -OR- Don Joewon Song
Bucket List Point - McIntosh Park (Northeast)


Rockin' Horse - Twerkstallion - At the western end of the airstrip, just drift around in a large circle. No hard obstacles or guardrails to hit and it's easy once you get into a rhythm.

Got That Swagger - RS1800 - The DJS tune on this car is uncontrollable. The tires are like hockey pucks on ice. Almost impossible to maintain forward momentum while turning because the car will just spin into a 360 and come to a stop. In a bucket list challenge you can't utilize skill songs or a convoy to make this achievement easier. I finally got this done by travelling up and down the big highway, going back and forth across the median or veering off the sides of the road just enough to tag a sign, small tree, or similar obstacle. The score builds up gradually this way but the car keeps moving.

Squashed Banana - Loki Blazer - This was easy coming from the railroad track then going through the woods, north of the sign. I was only going about 140 MPH when I hit the banana sign and got the achievement.

Gain a lot of speed on the runway and then do a drift. Then rewind until right before you began the drift and repeat for a second one. This way you do not have to regain speed every single time

Using the airport is an excellent way to get drifts done but I couldn't do it at first without touching a drift tune. Without a tune, us none drifters will have a hard time. It may help the guide to add a good tune to use (Just a helpful additionsmile)

Go to home page, click on achievement icon, turn tracker on. It will hang on the screen and show increases as you get them

By far the best advice for this cheevo, you can pick up the most speed at the airport and the road (runway) is very wide = perfect.

It's no necessary to have the Dlc. If one friend have the hoonigan DLC and he create a bluprint to go it a destination under 30 minutes you have time to do the achievement if you find tha place in the map. I done this achievement with a friend's bluprint. Go to airport its the best place.

Worked like a charm. I will note that from what I could tell via cheevo tracker, my E-brake drifts DID NOT count. Also I had some issues with trying the rewind and it catching it. Probably just me, but it's easy enough do do up n down the strip in a few minutes.

E-drifts won't work, can confirm.

Definitely had an easier time with the HS Neofist solution. I'm used to E-Drifts, so I needed something with more structure, since those don't count.

Great Solution. Had Trigger Lock enabled on my Elite V1, which made it real easy for me. I hate drifting 😅

Best way to do this if you have the blizzard mountain dlc is to add the "Rally Beast" settings (creator Stagedivetohell) and perform ultimate drift on the lake. So easy

"Throwing it" around the airport did not always work unfortunately

Did you try sending it? Sometimes throwing it doesn't do the trick but sending it always does.

RE: @PyuPyuCat

If anybody else is here in 2021 or after, message me on XBL and I will create a blueprint for whatever you need from the Hoonigan pack.

Interesting thing I noticed, while doing this achievement on Hot Wheels Island. Instead of Ultimate Drifts only Hot Wheels Drifts count for achievement there

Does anyone know of this is just drift ones or whether e-drift count too? My achievement tracker isn’t working atm unfortunately so I’m not able to track to see if it is working.

So the comment by Toninio Majo was the solution that worked for me. Downloaded the suggested tune then did clockwise drifts on the lake (and I suck at drifting!!) and had it done in five minutes. Thanks Toninio Majo!!

I did this achievement on the large roundabout in surfers paradise. The car's doens't need any upgrades, just turn off traction and stability.
Afther a while you'll get in the flow and will do 2 or 3 ultimate drifts every circle.wink

Perfect spot. I had to use manual transmission without clutch. Shifting between 4th and 3rd gear

I think HS Neofist's solution is one of the best. If you go on the big roundabout west of Sufers Paradise you can drift along and get the ultimate drift very easily. You don't need to do any tuning on the car, use it as it is. We made a short video showing how the drift should look like to get the ultimate drift often.

If the traffic is in the way just go to a nearby bucket list blueprint, choose a random drift with clear weather, no traffic settings and just drive here instead of the drift location. You'll have half an hour to do the drift on dry surface without traffic at the roundabout.

E-Drifts do not count for this. It must be a normal non e-brake drift. I used the Sweeping Drift Zone in the SE part of the main map near The Twelve Apostles and just kept drifting the bend in both directions until it popped. I used the "Best Drift Tune" by OG420DRIFTS but any drift tune should work.

My solution is for those drifting dummies like me myself, who have played the game for over 100hrs while haven't got 3 stars in even one single drifting PR stunt.redface

I tried HS Neofist's solution for some time and decide to give up because I cannot drive with the traction control turned off and made no progress at all...

So I move to the Hot wheels world, going to the half pipe at the north end of the Hot Wheels Island map. Here is the solution:

1. Turn the stability control and abs braking off, drive along the pipe and gain some speed. Speed is important, other wise the drifting may turns to burning tyres which is annoying.
2. When approaching a bend, drive a little left (right) to the suggested line if it's a left (right) turning, and turn left (right), no handbrake as it won't count.
3. Your car will start to drift with no obstacles to worry about, and easily get an "ULTIMATE" drift message on-screen, but hold until "Hot Wheels drift" prompt.
4. Do that at the next turning, you may get 3 or 4 Hot Wheels drift from one end to the other end of this pipe, so it's easy. I don't recommend reversing back to drift again at the same turning, because when the "Hot Wheels drift" prompt, it needs some cooling down to count.

(I got like 40 "ULTIMATE" drift as I traced it in the "record-technique" interface, but no achievements pop out. When turing to the xbox app on pc I found this achievement progress is only 60%.
The reason is in Hot Wheels world, "Ultimate" drift isn't ultimate, they added a new category called "Hot Wheels" drift, which can be obtained when holding the drift just a little longer.
I went for another 10 Hot Wheels drift and the achievement pop out. Even dummies can do huhlaugh)

For drifting dummies (like me who hasn't got a single 3 star drift zone) I found an extremely simple method:

I set up the car in AWD mode, with full power and upgrades, automatic shift and traction control and stability control ON and basically just drove in high speed circles in the area of scrub just north of the Outback Horizon Festival just 'nudging' the steering to initiate a drift and then holding a tiny amount of counter-steer.

Basically you just use the inertia from the initial high speed to maintain the drift.

Got the achievement within 10 minutes!

My tune is EasyAWDDrift by InterfaceLogic if any non drifters want a download and go solution.

For anyone who does not have this DLC
(The game and and all DLCs for it were taken off sale on 27th september 2020)

Step 1: Friend Don Joewon Song (This will allow you to do the next step and you can always unfriend later)

Step 2: Go to South Surfers Paradise Bucket list blueprint and select 'Drive the RX_7 Twerkstallion' by Don Joewon Song

Step 3: Either go to the large roundabout in Surfers Paradise or go to the airstrip to perform the ultimate drifts

The roundabout is closer, but I found the airstrip much easier.

The 1992 Hoonigan Mazda RX-7 Twerkstallion is a free car and it is already set to drift, but if you’re still having a hard time then you can add a tune. A good tune to use is EasyAWDDrift and you need to put in in the description under the search tab. This is also a good place to do the drifts as it’s a big roundabout. Keep in mind that E-Drifts do not count.
