Best way I done this was…

Free play
Quick event setup
2019 Subaru STi S209
Circuit Race
Le Mans - Full Circuit
Any Weather / Time
1 Lap (this is important)
Drivatars 0

Once you accept all these and your in the race menu… go to

Car
Fuel & Tire
Fuel load (15%) - some users saying 13% with upgrades… hope this helps

Difficulty all the way to 8 and Expert Rules then save

If you really need to go to settings and put fully assisted on brakes and steering all you have to do is hold RT

Hope this helps

15% always stopped right by the pit stop, 19% worked for me tho

By xX3601080pXx on 10 Oct 2023 01:30

15% worked fine for me. My first time, when unlocking it, I chose 17% based on the above comment, and had to turn around and drive/do donuts because I had 3 fuel laps left at the finish line. Did this a 2nd time out of curiosity, 15% is the way.

Thanks Pizzle21 for creating the video on YouTube for everyone to see and giving me the credit…

I’m just happy to help as much as I can, glad that alladaskill17 and xX3601080pXx also managed to gain the achievement

By N30YRD on 10 Oct 2023 10:33

This didn't unlock for me at 15% feul even though my estimated laps remaining was 1. I changed to 13% feul and the achievement unlocked

By DA CYBER ZOMBIE on 11 Oct 2023 13:28

Same thing as Cyber Zombie.... 13% worked for me.

By Luckystar37 on 11 Oct 2023 14:33

13 worked for me. probably due to upgrades

By Big rick 1969 on 11 Oct 2023 20:55

13% 👍🏻

By Sweet Mosley on 12 Oct 2023 10:54

This didn't pop for me when I first tried with 15% but then tried again with 13% as suggested and it popped straight away

By PureKaos85 on 13 Oct 2023 10:51

By PureKaos85 on 13 Oct 2023 12:30

15% it didn’t pop. Went to 13% achievement popped after one lap. And I didn’t touch the car. Bone stock.

By XxM1LLERTIMExX on 14 Oct 2023 06:35

I was able to earn this using stock 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Forza Edition with 25% fuel

By PikminGuts92 on 16 Oct 2023 01:58

Like mentioned needed to do 13% as 15% didn't work. Rented car, no upgrades. Cheers!

By Slayer Reigning on 19 Oct 2023 01:09

Worked on 13% fuel, I just added the throttle assist and relaxed while the game did the achievement for me

By SuperCJ xxx on 19 Oct 2023 18:07

Thank you, very helpful guide. %13 worked for me.

By k carmZ on 20 Oct 2023 22:33

13% didn't work for me, but 11% did.

By GT mVst8ng MARK on 22 Oct 2023 01:27

13 % worked for me

By Genford on 22 Oct 2023 13:07

13% was just a tad too much for me on a fully assisted configuration. 11% worked just fine.

By Spartan 343x on 23 Oct 2023 07:58

Sorry, but I had to downvote your guide as it wasn’t clear enough. However, the YouTube video helped a lot!

By Ox1893 on 24 Oct 2023 11:11

Funny that… cause the YouTube video is the guide…but each to there own!

By N30YRD on 24 Oct 2023 12:08

tried this a dozen ways until now. Got this with you helps... great guide Dryden! However, my 2 cents:

do it NO HANDS! add Throttle assist to all full assists. You can watch the perfect line; takes 5 mins.

By Qi Rae Mau on 30 Oct 2023 13:26

Got this today using the above however I had to rent the car and set fuel to 12% (Tried 15% and 13% but they didn't work for me)

By Deggy3 on 02 Nov 2023 19:09

12% - OK

By Glycodin on 04 Nov 2023 15:17

12% worked for me, 13% did not work. I used an upgraded car.
Very good, thank you.

By NiteStocker on 07 Nov 2023 17:55

13%, no upgrades works for me, my car level is 1.

By Robert Worms on 21 Nov 2023 13:57

Thank you JOHN SWFC, I followed your comment and it worked first ty.

By JuiceDemon93 on 07 Dec 2023 16:16

I also got it first try using JOHN SWFC's method. Much quicker than the original solution!

By Larentix on 20 Dec 2023 20:04

JOHN SWFC's method is the way to go.

By RCone138 on 02 Jan 2024 19:12

I worry about society these days. I will be kind though and explain myself.

I downvoted the guide because it is a guide for an achievement that is nothing more than 6 - 5 = 1.

My kids can do that math with their eyes closed

By TheGreatKoala on 09 Feb 2024 05:25

Above method/comments all seem a little long.

Got it on 1 lap of Hakone with a random car by taking the fuel load down to the minimum 5%. There's a counter with the number of laps fuel you have, it said 1 so I just finished the single lap race in a minute and a half and it popped.

Very easy to get in the introductory races.
The first race in Grand Oak Club is 4 laps long.
The second race at Mugelo is also 4 laps long
The last race at Kiamali is 3 laps long

After finishing practice, you will be greatted with the pre-race options.

Select "GO TO RACE."

If you are replaying the intro races, go ahead and set your starting position in "RISK VS REWARD"

When you can see the grid and go through each individual driver, make sure to press

to get into the "Fuel & Tire" menu.

Change the fuel load so that it indicates that the estimated number of laps is 5 (or 4 if you are in Kiamali. You will know that you have enough fuel once the Pit Stops counter goes to 0.

Confirm your choice by pressing

.

Once you complete the race the achievement should pop.

Might want to add you need to be playing on Sport or Expert rules as Club does not stimulate fuel or tires.

By BigWiIIieStyIe on 05 Oct 2023 01:27

Another update not sure if making a pit voids the achievement, I didn't have enough (even though pre-race said I did and was 3 laps short), pitted and did custom and the recommended, during the final lap it said I had 1 lap of fuel remaining but didn't pop.

By BigWiIIieStyIe on 05 Oct 2023 03:12

Sometimes the achievements are taking a while to pop is what I have noticed. I had to wait 24 hours for the one that requires you to get 10K credits from others using your tunes.

By Myopath on 05 Oct 2023 19:40

To confirm, you don't need to win the race, just finish it. My fuel indicator was 0 when I crossed the line

By darkavenger786 on 05 Oct 2023 22:10

I tried this several times with 1 tick into the next lap past the race (first tick of 5 laps if the race was 4 laps, etc.) and it did not pop. I had to do 1-2 ticks from it telling me I'd have to pit (same laps as the race) to finally have low enough fuel to pop the achievement.

By erod550 on 28 Oct 2023 07:38

Finally got it, it was a 4 lap race and when adjusting it had 4 notches/ticks that said 4 laps, so I choose the second one, after the first lap beforw the li e it said only 3 laps left and during my third lap before crossing the line it said 1 lap left.

By BigWiIIieStyIe on 05 Oct 2023 22:11

This must be bugged. I’ve finished races with 1 lap of fuel left 4 times and nothing.
