Earning a Great Skill Chain for the “Taking the Reins” daily challenge in Forza Horizon 6 is simple when using the right car and location. To complete this objective during the Italian Exotics Spring season, you must bank a Great Skill Chain (roughly 12,000 to 19,999 total points) while driving any Lamborghini.
Key Takeaways
- Required Car: Any Lamborghini (the 2019 Lamborghini Urus is recommended for its off-road durability).
- Best Location: The Stadium area or Shirakawa Circuit exterior for high-density smashable objects.
- Challenge Reward: 1 Forzathon Point and 5,000 Credits.
- Pro Tip: Spend a few Skill Points on the “Extra Life” Car Mastery perk to protect your chain from a single collision.
How to Complete the Taking the Reins Daily Challenge
The “Taking the Reins” challenge is the sixth daily objective in the Italian Exotics Series 3 Spring Festival Playlist. While the requirement to earn a “Great Skill Chain” in a Lamborghini sounds simple, maintaining a clean chain in high-traffic areas can be frustrating. To finish this quickly, we recommend using the 2019 Lamborghini Urus.
The Urus is a top choice because most players already own it via the LEGO partnership gift or as a reward from the Hide and Seek game mode. Its SUV suspension makes it much easier to rack up “Landscaping” and “Wreckage” skills off-road compared to lower-profile supercars like the Huracán or Aventador.
Best Location for a Great Skill Chain
To hit the “Great” tier (which triggers before you reach the “Awesome” or “Ultimate” tiers), head to the area surrounding the Stadium or the Shirakawa Circuit. These locations are packed with fences, small trees, and bushes that provide consistent skill score multipliers without the risk of hitting “hard” objects that would break your chain.
Simply initiate a drift and begin smashing through the environment. You only need to reach a total score (base points x multiplier) that qualifies as “Great.” Once the notification pops up on your HUD, stop driving and let the score bank to officially complete the challenge.
Car Mastery and Rewards
Before you start, check your Car Mastery tree. If you are struggling with collisions, unlocking perks that increase the multiplier build speed or provide a “second chance” (Extra Life) is highly recommended. This ensures that a single mistimed bump into a stadium wall won’t reset your progress.
Completing this challenge adds 1 Forzathon Point to your total and nets you a quick 5,000 Credits. It is an essential step for players aiming to achieve 100% completion for the Italian Exotics Spring season.
