My least favourite challenge in Forza Horizon 6 right now is by far the Floor It! task, which requires you to earn three Great Speed Skills in Horizon Racing. There’s a similar challenge in the Gazoo Racer weekly challenge, where you need to earn six Speed Skills in the 2022 Toyota GR86.
As annoying as these tasks are, completing them is necessary if you want to progress through the Series 1: Welcome to Japan Festival Playlist and bag all the exclusive rewards, including some fancy new cars too.
How to earn Speed Skills in Forza Horizon 6
You need to drive fast to get Speed Skills, at least 100mph, and maintain speed for at least a few seconds. Like other skills, there are various ascending tiers, consecutively increasing in points awarded, too.
- Speed (100 points): Maintain a speed of over 100 mph/161 kmph
- Great Speed (150 points): Maintain a speed of over 150 mph/241 kmph
- Awesome Speed (250 points): Maintain a speed of over 175 mph/282 kmph
- Ultimate Speed (1,000 points): Maintain a speed of over 200 mph/322 kmph
However, it’s not as simple as that when it comes to beating the Floor It! and Gazoo Racer challenges, so here’s what I recommend you do.

This challenge requires you to earn three Great Speed Skills in Horizon Play races, which you can access either by clicking on the challenge or heading to the ‘Online’ tab of the pause menu.
This will matchmake you into a series of three multiplayer races. However, the car ranking and tricks will be random. Since you need to reach at least 150 mph to earn Great Speed Skills, it’s not ideal to get stuck in a B-class or below race, where reaching this speed is a real struggle.
Here are a few tips that helped me complete it:
- If you matchmake into a playlist rated B-rank or below, leave as soon as you can and try again. Repeat this until, ideally, you get an S or R-class event, where you can use supercars. This only took me two attempts, but it could take you much longer.
- You don’t need to win the race, and crashing (thus breaking your score streak before banking it) won’t disrupt your challenge. In other words, once you reach a straight road, put the pedal down to go as fast as you can.
- Pick a car with a high top speed and acceleration. Related to both of the above, this’ll be at least an S-rank car, and since you don’t need to worry about winning, you don’t necessarily need to have good handling or braking.
Completing the Floor It! challenge will reward you with the Ford Lightning and three points towards the Festival Playlist rewards.

This is the third step of the Summer weekly challenge, where you need to earn six Speed Skills using the 2022 Toyota GR86. This can be done in the open world or during a race. While the stock version of this car is more than capable of reaching 100mph, I recommend you upgrade the speed and acceleration to make this challenge easier.
Then, pick any relatively long, straight road (such as the highways around Tokyo) and slam the pedal down to max out your speed. It’s technically possible to earn all six in one go if you can maintain your speed for long enough, but you’ll most likely need to accelerate to 100 mph multiple times.
Beating this challenge and the subsequent Hakone Nanamagari touge race to wrap up the weekly challenge will reward you with 25,000 credits and five points towards the Festival Playlist.
