To earn 3 Ultimate Clean Racing Skills in Forza Horizon 6 Spec Racing, simply hang back at the start of the race to avoid contact with other players while maintaining a consistent speed for 60 seconds.
Key Takeaways
- Enter “Spec Racing” via the Horizon Play menu to ensure all racers use the same stock vehicle.
- You do not need to win or even place well; the goal is strictly to avoid collisions for a specific duration.
- The “Hang-Back” strategy is the safest way to avoid aggressive drivers and secure the “Spec-tacular Driving” challenge.
- Completing this task is essential for unlocking the 2017 Saleen S7 LM in the Series 1 Spring Playlist.
How to Access Spec Racing in Horizon Play
In Forza Horizon 6, the multiplayer experience has been streamlined through the Horizon Play hub. To start this specific challenge, navigate to the Horizon Play tab and select “Spec Racing.” Unlike open racing, Spec Racing forces every participant into the same stock car—in this case, the Mazda 787B—ensuring a level playing field where performance is dictated by skill rather than car upgrades.

The Hang-Back Strategy for Ultimate Clean Racing Skills
To earn an “Ultimate Clean Racing” skill in FH6, you must drive at high speeds without colliding with walls, obstacles, or other cars for approximately 60 seconds. In a crowded lobby, this is incredibly difficult. The best tactic is to intentionally start slowly and let the pack pull away. By creating a 100-yard buffer between yourself and the nearest racer, you can comfortably maintain speed without the risk of an aggressive opponent ruining your streak.

Spec-tacular Driving Challenge Walkthrough
The “Spec-tacular Driving” challenge is a featured event in the Series 1 Spring Playlist. Because the Mazda 787B is a high-downforce, high-speed machine, it is easy to accumulate these skills on long straights. Focus on your throttle control and brake early for corners. You need to trigger the “Ultimate” notification three times to satisfy the requirements for the reward car.
