To complete the Bouncing Off the Walls Daily Challenge in Forza Horizon 6, you must earn 3 Drift Tap skills using any car from the 2000s decade. The most reliable method is to use a dedicated drift car, such as the 2007 Formula Drift #117 599 GTB Fiorano, and lightly graze your rear bumper against a highway barrier while maintaining a drift side-angle.
Key Takeaways
- Required Car: Any vehicle from the 2000s decade (2000–2009).
- best Vehicle: 2007 Formula Drift #117 599 GTB Fiorano (unlocked via the Collection Journal).
- The Technique: Initiate a drift using the e-brake and allow the rear of the car to “kiss” the wall without crashing.
- Cooldown Warning: There is a mandatory 10–15 second cooldown between registered Drift Tap skills.
- Rewards: 1 Forzathon Point and 5,000 Credits.
Best Car for the Bouncing Off the Walls Challenge
While any car from the 2000s works, the 2007 Formula Drift #117 599 GTB Fiorano is the top recommendation for this Forza Horizon 6 objective. Because it is pre-tuned for high-angle drifting, it is much easier to control when approaching a wall. You can unlock this car by earning 400 skill points in your Collection Journal.
How to Earn Drift Tap Skills Quickly
A Drift Tap occurs when you are actively drifting and your rear bumper or quarter panel lightly touches a wall or barrier. If you hit the wall too hard, you will trigger a “Collision” and break your skill chain, failing the objective.
For the best results, head to the main highway. The long, consistent concrete barriers provide the perfect surface for “scraping” the wall. Follow these steps:
- Disable Assists: Go to Difficulty Settings and turn off Traction Control (TCS) and Stability Control (STM). This allows the car to slide freely.
- Initiate the Drift: Reach a moderate speed, tap the e-brake (e-drift), and steer into the turn to get the car sideways.
- The Tap: Feather the throttle to bring the rear of the car toward the barrier. Aim for a light graze.
- Wait for the Cooldown: After the “Drift Tap” icon appears, wait at least 15 seconds before trying the next one, or the game will not count it toward the challenge.
Ideal Map Locations
The highway is the most ideal spot due to its straight barriers. However, if you prefer tighter spaces, the spiral parking garage ramps near the Tokyo docks are excellent for maintaining the constant side-angle needed to brush against the walls repeatedly.
Completing this task is a quick way to tick off your Winter Horizon Decades Festival Playlist requirements. For more help with the current season, check out our other Forza Horizon 6 guides.
