The fourteen event trophies: five Touge, three Rush and 57 wins

Two trophies in one lap

The biggest time-saving overlap in this block, and one almost everyone misses:

One More Lap Never Hurt Anyone — 76.18%. Set a lap time at any time-trial circuit, marked with a blue clock icon. You do not have to be fast: completing the lap and having the time register is enough.

Track Session — 24.12%. Exactly the same, but driving a track toy.

They are the same requirement plus a car condition, and yet the gap is fifty percentage points. Almost everyone who loses the second one did the lap in whatever they were driving and never went back.

So if you have not registered a lap yet: buy or borrow a track toy and do your first lap in it. Two trophies, one lap.

Same principle with the Horizon Rushes. Aparkour! asks for one and Feel the Rush asks for three, and they are repeatable in the same place: no need to find three different ones. The first arrives on its own through the story when you reach the second Horizon Festival, so once it pops, repeat it twice more and close both.

There are only five Touge, and you do not have to win them

Touge are downhill mountain-road duels, and there are only five in the whole game: Hakone Nanamagari, Bandai Azuma, Arashiyama Takao, Mount Haruna and the Norikura Skyline.

Two trophies come from them: This Is Just the Warm-Up for completing one — 54.38% — and Ghost in White for completing all five — 25.48%.

And the fact that changes the approach: you do not have to win them, only finish them. Neither trophy asks for a victory.

Even so only one player in four has the five-Touge one, and the reason is not difficulty: all five sit on remote mountain roads and you have to go there on purpose. Nobody passes a Touge on the way to something else.

Which is why it is among the best effort-to-reward trophies in the game: a long hour, five duels, and you push the diary stamp along the way, because Touge are one of the fast sources of exploration points. If you are going to do one, do all five in a single trip.

The automatic ones and the two that need a connection

Six come from playing the campaign, with nothing special required:

- The First of Many — 93.32%. Complete your first qualifier. - Open the Scoring — 91.28%. Win your first Festival race. - Four Swords — 90.98%. Complete a LINK manoeuvre. - Aparkour! — 77.72%. The first Horizon Rush arrives through the story. - Smell of Freshly Burnt Rubber — 66.35%. Complete a drag challenge, the straight-line events with the red-light icon. Whatever car you are driving works, even if you lose. - You'll Mecha-Love It — 64.84% and Reaching New Heights — 45.84%. The two Showcase events, the spectacle races against something that is not a car. They arrive through the story and cannot be missed. The twenty-point gap between them is, precisely, the people who quit in between.

Two need the online section, and their low percentages do not measure difficulty:

- Four Swords requires a connection, despite its 90.98%. - Level Regulations — 26.24%. Complete a race in a one-make championship, under Online › Horizon Play › One-make races. One-make means everyone races the same equalised car, so it does not depend on your garage, and you do not have to place anywhere specific: finishing is enough.

And one that is pure time:

Motorsport Lover — 26.39%. Win 57 Horizon Festival races. It is not hard, it is long. The number is not arbitrary: it matches the game's total achievement count. The way to make it painless is to do it while raising your wristbands, because they are exactly the same events.
