How to Get the Lotus Exige WTAC in Forza Horizon 6

If you've been scrolling through your Collection Journal in Forza Horizon 6, you might have spotted a total beast of a track car locked away under the Horizon Festival section: the Lotus Exige WTAC. This aerodynamic monster is easily one of the coolest completion rewards in the game right now, but getting your hands on it requires a real commitment to the asphalt. You can't just buy it off the Autoshow—you have to earn it.

The good news is that the unlock path is completely straightforward. The challenging news? You're going to have to dominate the entire road racing scene to do it. Here is exactly what you need to do to add it to your garage.

The Target: 9,360 Horizon Festival Points

If you open up your Collection Journal, head to the Horizon Festival tab, and look under "Road Racing," you'll see the magic number: 9,360 Horizon Festival points. To reach this milestone, the game essentially asks you to do a clean sweep of the asphalt scene—you need to play and win every single road race in the game.

Step 1: Unlock the Full Grid (Get the Gold Wristband)

Before you can win every race, you actually have to be able to see them on your map. You can't finish a progression tree if half the branches are still hidden! Because of this, your first main priority in the broader campaign is pushing through the festival tiers until you secure the Gold Wristband. Getting the Gold Wristband signifies that you've unlocked the full endgame map and that every single high-level road event is open for entry.

Step 2: Tackle the Restrictions

Road racing in Forza Horizon 6 is exactly what it sounds like: closed-circuit or point-to-point racing on clean, paved roads. There is zero civilian traffic to worry about, meaning you can focus 100% on hitting the perfect apex and out-braking the AI.

However, you can't just steamroll every event with an S2-class supercar. Most events feature strict thematic and class limitations. For example, the very first track you unlock—the Shirakawa Circuit—requires a Class C car from the "Retro Sports Cars" category. Luckily, the game hooks you up early on: the Toyota Celica GT-Four ST205 that you get from Mei fits this restriction perfectly and makes for an awesome starter car.

Quick Tip: Don't worry if you find an event on your map and realize you don't own a matching car for it. When you arrive at the starting grid, you can simply start the event, and the game will pop up a menu showing recommended eligible cars. You can buy one right then and there on the spot.

Step 3: Win Every Race

Once your map is fully populated with all the road racing events, it's time to put your head down and start crossing them off. Remember, simply participating or podiuming isn't enough to secure the Exige; you need to check off the "Win" condition for every single grid. If you find yourself struggling on a particular track or with a specific car class, there's no shame in dropping the AI difficulty down a notch or grabbing an optimized community tune to ensure that first-place finish.

Claiming Your Prize

It is a bit of a grind, but once that final checkered flag drops and you officially max out the Road Racing progression tree, you'll hit that 9,360-point mark. Just jump back into your Collection Journal, claim your reward, and the Lotus Exige WTAC is yours.

In Forza Horizon 6, unlocking the Lotus Exige WTAC requires a complete sweep of the road racing scene to accumulate 9,360 Horizon Festival points. While this challenge asks you to play and win every closed-road event on the map, it also demands some smart budget management regarding your in-game FH6 credits. Because most events feature strict thematic and class restrictions—such as the early Shirakawa Circuit requiring specific Class C Retro Sports Cars—you will frequently need to acquire new eligible vehicles to enter the starting grid. Fortunately, the game streamlines this process by letting you purchase recommended cars directly at the event gate. This means keeping a healthy stack of FH6 credits on hand is essential for seamlessly buying your way into restricted grids and keeping your progression tree moving without a hitch.
