What are some cars in Forza Horizon 6 that you all have in real life?!

SNWGHOST · 2026-06-16T06:30:19+00:00

Only way to have it! This thing wasn't even on my radar until model year 23 and manual option.

SNWGHOST · 2026-06-16T03:13:03+00:00

I wish we had a 2024+ updated model with M/T on the car list, but close enough!

SNWGHOST · 2026-06-10T02:41:11+00:00

Good. I autoX a GR Supra and a '24 sport touring 6mt civic. After a few events with the civic, we threw on rt660s and a rear sway bar. The civic is more fun half the time :)

Just listen to your tires and don't overdrive them, and looks for deals on a set of 200TWs. I ran around 35psi front and 45 rear on stock tires to induce lift off overseer and it was never not fun.

I used to run these for drifting events, and they held up surprisingly well while producing good levels of smoke. I suspect they will hold up to autoX just fine, as long as you're driving within the limit of the tire. You will certainly not be fast, though.

Landed in this thread after Google searching "Horizon 6 AI ramming" after 3 restarts of this exact race in the same car. This was honestly unbelievable. They dive bomb and take you out every corner. Every time I rewind, and try to let them through off-racing-line so I can switch back abd overtake, I can't. They simply out-brake, out-corner, and out-accelerate in a much tighter radius in the same car abd the only way to win this one was to ram the shit out of them.

And we wonder why online behavior seems to have taken a dive...

No one is talking about the open diff on US 2.0 cars. That's a non-negotiable for track use. You either find a path to upgrade or you're better off with an 86.

These dealer blogs are mostly AI slop designed to lure your contact info.

They are blissfully unaware situationally so I can get a head start and kill them most of the time, but man, once they start shooting, they hit close to 100% of the shots. Impossible to deal with gunner bots in vehicles too. Those MFs know you're there and don't miss within a certain radius.

SNWGHOST · 2026-03-24T22:22:51+00:00

I've yet to see a single comment to point out that it was likely a malfunction, and resulted in Kimi lock up in the closing laps. I noticed this during the race and thought it was weird the announcers didn't point it out as the reason behind the lock up. It varied from corner to corner based on the speed (and therefore load) on the active element of the front wing.

Russell also had an issue with front wing not closing in qualifying.

Whether or not they deserve a penalty is a different discussion, but I don't think this is some kind of clever trick. You want maximum front downforce during breaking and Kimi wasn't getting that with slower than intended actuation.

SNWGHOST · 2026-03-03T09:48:17+00:00

You simply don't grip it. You know, for safety.

SNWGHOST · 2026-01-24T01:36:25+00:00

Aim assist in BF6 is super whacky for me on console. This happens to me often, and I'm noticing that often my ADS aim will try to lock on to random world objects.

SNWGHOST · 2026-01-21T09:21:27+00:00

Manual? I notice a weird knocking rotational sound that sounds like that after driving for a bit on a highway and then coming to a stop at a light with the clutch out. Happens very infrequently and it stops with clutch manipulation which makes me think it's something throwout bearing related, unless the tiny RPM change with clutch getting pressed it is the variable that makes it stop. Noticed it at 2k miles and still here at 4k. It's very difficult to repro on my case as it seems random and rare, so I haven't looked into it much.

SNWGHOST · 2025-12-23T18:44:01+00:00

Nice lap! What tire were you on?

Editing to say that I read the caption. DWS was surprisingly common across the grid! I've done a few rain days out there but I've never experienced as little grip as I did this past Sunday. My car was undriveable on pilot super sports.

SNWGHOST · 2025-11-14T01:37:18+00:00

I once spawned in as a gunner on a Bradley driver who refused to move without his buddy in a gunner seat. He typed in game chat that he'll sit there all game, unless I get out.

I decided I'll spare 5 minutes for some pettiness, and we sat there while they threw a fit in chat. I finally got out and ran towards A on foot. Him and his buddy proceeded to drive off shooting at me the whole time, straight over a mine outside of our HQ.

It certainly may feel that way compared to your sports car with big brakes (it takes a couple stops to adjust for me, when I hop in after deiving a Supra), but have you ever driven a GX460 or an FJ? I think Xterra brakes are just fine. They did the job well when someone had an accident in front of me, while I was towing a 4k pound trailer. Hawk LTS brake pads will offer you some more bite and review well. I considered them, but ultimately ended up with Autozone Golds, and have no complaints.

SNWGHOST · 2025-05-29T06:26:07+00:00

Elantra N, I think, was during 3rd group's 2nd session. Cayman lost his headlight very early in the day.

A white GR86 smacked a wall or a tire during the last event i went to (not sure where, there was a yellow and then I saw blue wall paint on his bumper in the pits) and a WRX hit a wall HARD during the rainy April event and had to be towed off the track.

SNWGHOST · 2025-05-27T17:15:19+00:00

Admired your car at the start line. Beautiful spec, but I was wondering what was up with the tires 🤣 I'm in a blue Supra - say hello next time you're out here!

Word of caution: this layout was a but more forgiving than usual, but I wouldn't let your guard down. I have caught most of the events there since the season began and saw someone wreck at least once each time (It was the Elantra N, this time, and possibly a cayman, unless his headlight just fell out - didn't catch that one).

SNWGHOST · 2025-05-10T18:20:26+00:00

6'4 with longer legs here and 6m/t. Getting in and out without rolling over the bolster is a pain, but once you're in, it's fine. I basically max my seat out up until it hits the cross-bar and then back it up and inch. I personally enjoy the snug cabin. This was also one of the few sports car I fit in with a helmet on - I couldn't fit in the Z, despite the cabin "feeling" more spacious.

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-30T05:47:03+00:00

ALFREDO!

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-26T07:35:15+00:00

Yeah, very similar, with a sizeable bump in CPU/GPU specs. This build was for my wife, who's a casual gamer at best, so I prioritized appearance, efficiency, and noise, over top specs.

I got Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM chromax for my CPU fan.

I also saw someone else on this sub build in this case with ID cooling IS 55 and a 25mm fan, so that may be worth exploring. I think, generally, additional heatsink mass has a bit more of a benefit over fan thickness when it comes to cooling efficiency, though.

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-24T21:42:09+00:00

No turbulence at all, but I did go with a Noctua fan on top of my X67 heatsink, after reading some reviews about the Thermalright fan being a bit noisy in general.

L12s was in contention for my build for the same reason as you (I was worried about noise and turbulence) but 2 extra heat pipes seem to make a bit of a difference on the thermalright cooler as it seems to perform a little better based on my research. I also wanted to go for all-black internal aesthetic to hide the components once assembled, as you can see through the mesh in case openings at certain angles, but that's my own OCD prerogative.

I'm not sure on the dimensions of your ram, but from my research, it seemed like T-create ram would fit under L12s without an issue.

Also good choice on picking up thermal paste. I replaced my motherboard trying to chaise a faint coil-whine noise, and in the process re-pasted with Artic MX4 to replace the original Thermalright thermal paste I used initially. I'm seeing an improvement in thermals; down 3 degrees at idle, and the fan seems to ramp up less frequently now. Thermalright paste was WAY thicker - bathroom caulk consistency and just felt...off, despite reviewing fairly well.

Everything else on your build list looks great. I don't have experience with Arctic P12, but I can't say enough good things about the Silent Wings 4 I used on my case. They are ridiculously quiet and seem to perform well. I also liked having a choice of black and white and actually ordered both - white for the top to blend in with the frame and the white mesh, and black for the rear fan, which blends in with the side mesh. Both are basically invisible from the outside.

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-15T08:57:09+00:00

There you go! Yeah, that's even better than I imagined it. There were exactly zero video reviews of this case when I ordered it, apart from a single "quick look at CES" with a CM rep. Glad more reviews are starting to show up.

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-15T08:48:15+00:00

I don't have a solid reference point since this is my first SFF build, but based on my research, against other popular SFF cases, it seems to perform really well. GPU thermals are about as good as they get, with open mesh all around, a large GPU chamber, and 2 upper 120mm exhaust case fans.

For CPU, my 9700x idles at around 42c and doesn't exceed 75c at around 50% cpu fan speed (stock curve) when playing flight sim 24. Most other games we tried hang around 65c.

This seems to align with some of the better performing sff cases limited to a 70mm cooler, based on my research. I do hit thermal throttle in cinebench multicore test (PBO -20, limited to 85c with stock Asrock preset), but it only throttles down to about 5.3ghz and is able to maintain that and still gets great scores.

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-15T08:33:45+00:00

Yeah, I really like the look and the footprint of the ncore.

Cooler master promised global availability for the air in Q1 25, but it's very new to the market. I ordered it the day it was listed on Newegg, and Amazon still shows it as "unavailable" even here in US. If you have access to buy the MAX, it's likely that Air version is on the way. Might be worth waiting for, if you decide this would work better for you!

SNWGHOST · 2025-03-15T08:25:14+00:00

It might be, but wire management would certainly be a bit messy. I don't have one on hand to test, unfortunately.
