Not got one yet. Was too busy beating your rampage and Ferrari time last night to get one sorted. Should buy the car and get the tune sorted also. Driver level 37 now with only 5 career races completed. This game is fun.

Yeh but the racer makes the difference. Just on some of the stock hot laps I'm a good few seconds off the top of the table.

i think reverse grid order will help.

i much prefer fighting through the grid than being out in front alone etc. makes for much closer racing.

I will be doing some point scoring (not live though). Not sure on the system yet, either BTCC, DTM or WTCC (same as F1).

Limited damage may mix things up a little, as well as reverse grid. The races are only short so if you can keep your car out of trouble and on the track you'll be surprised how well you can finish.

It will be good fun. I've cleared the tv time with the wife.

I actually won a practice race so there is hope for us all!

Hi Guys

Would like to get in on this, played with a few AVF'ers on GT5 and need to spend some more time on Forza.

Feel free to send me some FR's and put me on the standby list if full

Thanks

Someone's lucky day, my op has been cancelled so I'll be working now, and therefore won't be able to make it. Enjoy the racing boys.

Ok mate sorry to hear that. I'll put you on the reserves just in case.

Which means DanLat is in.

I'll put you on the reserves too. Be prepared to race but not to race if that makes sense.

I guess the chances of more than two of the same liveries is quite slim. If everyone posts a picture of their design, that's the best thing to do.

Maybe you could all put your names on the back so I can see who has overtaken me

For some it's probably easier to take a picture.

Speaking of that, one little omission from Forza is not being able to put the driver name on the side windows like you see in touring cars. That would be a nice extra in the apply vinyls menu.

Wierd.
I was kind of back a bit and the car definitely teleported into all the others. Looked like a bowling ball hitting pins and was defo a strike lol

Did a few laps of Mugello short and managed a 1:01.861

Kept it in 4th for the fist corner and back to 4th for the S's

Have been trying this car out in case I get the nod, really like it. Had a few practice laps on all the proposed tracks. Do not know how to get my pictures off the xbox onto here.

Does anyone fancy buying my SEAT design so that I can get that achievement out of the way! No-one will actually just buy it as I am not a very good designer! Cheers!

Save and upload to Forzamotorsport.net. Login to FM.net, go to media and you can view and download your pics. Then save them to your PC and upload to a filehosting site like imageshack or photobucket.

Thanks JZ, here is mine:




It is my first ever try with the creator, my time on Mugello is quite slow as well. Think I need to take a look at my settings as had the braking on assisted so was slowing down too much at the corners!

Did you use the clutch for that time? .5 is a massive amount to gain round mugello short over my lap.

Well done though in any case

Yep, just a reminder that it's auto clutch only on Wednesday night.

Anyone found to be using manual clutch will face disqualification from the race and zero points awarded. Replays will be watched, you have been warned!

Edit - it's down as auto clutch on the leaderboards so he's just blisteringly quick.

Got me doubting myself now about the clutch

It's my fastest A Class time around the track so it's verifiable on the leaderboards
