Forza Horizon 4: The track-focused MC12

Back in Colorado during the first Horizon game, festival-goers got enraptured by the raw power of the most hardcore Maserati to date, the MC12 Versione Corse. It has returned in the fourth Horizon game as a Autumn Playlist prize car and now that I got it, I got a little amount of time to talk about the track-only MC12 in question.



Made to commemorate the MC12's victory at the 2005 FIA GT world endurance championship, this track-only version pushes beyond the limits of what a Maserati should be. The 6.0L V12 engine that powers it churned out 755hp of power, making it more powerful than the road car and the GT1 race car combined and because it weighs over 2,500lbs, it does 0-200kph in 6.4 seconds and has a top speed of 326kph. Apart from the engine, the Versione Corse has a stress-bearing carbon fiber and Nomex honeycomb sandwich monocoque, aluminum subframe, and an integrated roll cage for added rigidity. About 12 of these were made for the customers who want to do some free track time on the weekends.



Anyway, enough talk about the MC12 Versione Corse, because it's time to push this car to its paces and see if this is more than just being a Ferrari FXX in a fat suit. Since I am running out of space in Britain, I decided to have some time out at Fortune Island and enjoy the Versione Corse the way I want. Anything happens, right? So, without further ado, let's go!



Job well done, there's nothing else I can say about it.

Enjoy your new ride.
