Compete the Theory of Evolution Weekly Challenge in the Forza Horizon 6 Winter Season of the Horizon Decades playlist with efficiency. This guide covers how to secure the required 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR TM Edition, the best performance tune, and strategies for all four chapters to earn your 25,000 Credits reward.
Key Takeaways
- Required Car: 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR TM Edition (Unlocked by earning the Yellow Wristband or the buy at the Autoshow).
- Recommended Tune: Use code 786 069 581 for a versatile dirt and asphalt build.
- Time Attack: Complete 3 laps at Sekibe; specific times are not required for completion.
- Speed Zone Cheat: Maintain an average of 90 MPH at the Festival Loop Speed Zone to secure 3 Stars.
Chapter 1: Own and Drive the Evo VI GSR TM Edition
To begin the Theory of Evolution challenge in Forza Horizon 6, you must be behind the wheel of the 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR TM Edition. While this car is available in the Autoshow, you can save your credits by progressing through the Career Mode—it is a guaranteed reward once you earn your Yellow Wristband.
Chapter 2: Sekibe Time Attack Walkthrough
Head to the Sekibe Time Attack on the map. To find it quickly, use the map filters to highlight “Time Attacks.” You are required to complete three timed laps. There is no specific medal or time requirement to clear this stage, making it an excellent opportunity to test the handling of the recommended tune before the more difficult upcoming chapters.
Chapter 3: Festival Loop Speed Zone 3-Star Strategy
The target for the Festival Loop Speed Zone is an average speed of 90 MPH. While you can technically earn one star three separate times to progress, it is more efficient to clear the 3-star requirement in a single run. Using the provided tune (786 069 581), approach the zone with high entry speed; the Mitsubishi’s responsive steering allows you to maintain over 95 MPH through the apexes easily.
Chapter 4: Winning the Cherry Field Trail Dirt Race
The final chapter requires a Dirt Race victory. The Cherry Field Trail is recommended for this challenge, offering a mix of technical hairpins and high-speed dirt sections with views of Mt. Fuji. Ensure your traction control is adjusted for dirt if you find the rear end stepping out, though the Rally DNA of the Evo VI should keep you planted through the Scandinavian flicks required for this win.
Once the dirt race is complete, the challenge will mark as finished, and 25,000 Credits will be added to your account. For more help with the Horizon Decades playlist, check out our other seasonal guides on Forza Factory.
