Forza Horizon 5 - Clean Co-op Race Rules

Rule 1 - No Contact

This rule is the one that trains you to be a better Superstar, to anticipate trouble, to give other Superstars more space and to learn patience.

It doesn't matter what was hit. If it's a fellow Superstar, a Drivatar, NPC or indestructible object there was contact with, the run is invalidated.

It doesn't matter who hit who, who's at fault or why it happened, there are no excuses. If there was contact, the run is invalidated.

It doesn't matter how light the contact was. If there was contact, the run is invalidated.

Destructible's don't count so feel free to continue mowing down the street furniture, farm infrastructure and vegetation of the host nation.

Rule 2 - Team Win

It's a team sport we're hijacking, so best to play well with others and help them win the for the team.

If you're being so super girthy awesome that you find yourself a mile ahead of everyone else and the team is losing then you've fucked up my brother. You should be doing your teamwork to help the others. GL keeping your rule 1 intact holding up Drivatars though :)

Rule 3 - Full Lobby

Stands to reason, less humans means better odds of success so to keep it hard, there should be a full lobby. 6 Horizon Superstars! However sometimes lobbies aren't full so rather than being a pass/fail rule we'll consider this a grade.

6 > 5 > 4 > 3 > 2 > 1

GL HF!

Rule 4 - No Ragequit

People ragequit. Sometimes just to clean up their bedrooms but the reason doesn't matter, someone ragequitting ahead of you means you don't have to pass them so your run is easier. Unfortunately your run is also invalidated!

If someone ragequits behind you then there are no fucks given - except by you coz if this is race 1, they've already fucked your next run!

If there is vehicle overlap when they start the process of ragequitting, i.e. going to the menu, and it's not obvious who is ahead of who, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt, grant clemency and submit you to the Order of Knights of the Overjoyed Racers.

Arise Sir Serene of Serendipity.

Rule 5 - Come From The Back

You must be last on the in-race leaderboard at some point in the race. C'mon superstar, you're awesome are you not? Starting from the back should be easy!

Just a note on qualifying position. If you're not last then you'll need to find a way to drop to the back without being hit. That'll be fun for you!

Even if you do qualify last, if your starts are fantastic awesome super whoosh whoosh then by the time the leaderboard appears you might not be. Don't be caught out.

For the avoidance of doubt. Even if you qualify last, only your position on the race leaderboard will be referred too.

Rule 6 - Personal Win

You're going to find this kind of hard given all the above rules and even if you do manage to get in front, it's at that moment you'll realise the impossibru feat you've just achieved and promptly put it in the wall in the next corner! Please record this and share it!
