If you have been working through the new Festival playlist in Horizon Decades, you will probably want a quick way to clear the opening objective and move on. That is where the DeLorean comes in. For players who still need a car before starting, it may even make sense to grab some FH6 Credits support so the purchase does not eat up the rest of the week's budget.

What the challenge asks of you

Blast from the Past is built around the 1982 DeLorean DMC-12, and the game keeps the whole thing pretty simple. You are not chasing a weird hidden route or a long chain of side objectives. You just need to own the car, get it moving, hold a decent speed, snap a photo, and win one Road Race in it. The nice part is that none of the tasks are fussy. If you already know the map a bit, you can knock most of it out in one sitting without much backtracking. The only part that usually slows people down is the race, and even that is more about picking a sensible event than doing anything fancy.

Getting the DeLorean ready

First up, make sure the 1982 DeLorean DMC-12 is actually in your garage. If it is already there, just take it for a short drive and the game should register that you have started the challenge properly. If you do not own it yet, head to the Autoshow and buy it for 72,000 credits. That sounds like a lot if you are low on cash, but the car is useful enough that it is not a bad pickup anyway. Once you have it, do not overthink the setup. People often tune cars before every playlist task, but this one does not need that kind of prep. Stock form is fine.

Hitting the speed target

The speed task is the one most players finish without really trying. You need to hold 142 km/h or higher for 10 seconds, which is easier than it looks on paper. Find a long straight road, build speed, and just stay smooth with the throttle. Highways are the obvious choice, but wide coastal roads work too if traffic is not giving you grief. Try not to brake into the section or fight the steering too much. The DeLorean is stable enough for this, so the main thing is patience. Keep the car settled, watch the timer, and let the road do the work.

Photo and race objectives

The photo step is almost comically easy. Open Photo Mode, frame the DeLorean however you like, and take the shot. It does not need a dramatic backdrop, and it does not matter if the lighting is perfect. People sometimes waste time trying to make it look like a magazine cover, but the challenge only cares that the picture is taken. After that, move on to a Road Race event marker on the map and enter with the DeLorean selected. You only need one win, so choose a route that suits the car. Shorter Road Races are usually the safest bet, especially if you want to avoid a messy first corner or a longer fight with AI traffic. Once you cross the line in first, the whole challenge wraps up.

Final Thoughts

What makes Blast from the Past worth doing is not just the reward, though the credits are welcome. It is the fact that the task flow feels clean. You can buy the car, clear the speed check, take the photo, and finish a race without bouncing all over the map. If you like keeping a few event-ready cars around, the DeLorean is still handy for future seasonal prompts and casual driving, and it never hurts to have a classic like this sitting in the garage. If you are still short on funds, picking up FH6 Credits for sale can make it easier to grab the car and stay ready for the next Festival objective, especially when the playlist starts asking for something specific again.
