Required Car & “Total Rally” Category Explained
The car restriction for this week’s Summer Trial is “Total Rally” capped at C-Class. Many Forza Horizon 6 players may find this confusing as “Total Rally” does not appear as a specific filter in the car garage. Instead, it serves as an umbrella term for several rally-based sub-categories, including Retro Rally and Rally Monsters.
For the most consistent results on the dirt trails of Japan, we recommend building the 1994 Toyota Celica GT-Four ST205. Since this is a C-Class event, focus on grip and acceleration rather than top speed. This car provides the stability needed for the narrow trail sections found in this week’s championship.

How to Win the Crossing Boundaries Trial
The Trial is a “Best of Three” team championship where your Blue Team (players) faces off against the Red Team (Unbeatable AI). To succeed, you don’t just need to finish first; your team needs more total points than the AI.
The Blocking Strategy
In the video above, you can see the “Anchor” or “Blocker” strategy in action. Once you reach the top three positions, your goal shifts from winning the race to defending your teammates. By intentionally slowing down in narrow corners, you can create a bottleneck for the AI. This allows struggling teammates to catch up and pass the AI cars, effectively “carrying” the team to a points victory even if some players are underperforming.
Race Locations & Trail Walkthrough
The Italian Exotics Series 3 Summer Trial consists of three distinct dirt/trail tracks:
- Race 1: Airfield Trail — A high-speed start with technical turns through the airfield interior.
- Race 2: Hokubu Trail — Features elevation changes and tight hairpins that are perfect for the blocking strategy.
- Race 3: Takashiro Trail — The final deciding race if your team hasn’t already secured two wins.
Remember to respect your teammates. In Forza Horizon 6, crashing into other Blue Team cars only hurts your team’s total score. Focus on blocking the Red Team and clearing the way for a clean sweep.
