Its a good livery mate use it

I enjoy racing cars a lot more that i have painted myself, its just good to see your work in any after race photo's/vids. The only trouble is you can spend hours painting your car and forget to get any race practice in

My Purchase for the evening:





It is a great car, I just can't seem to do it justice. I'm always coming into the corners too hot or losing the back from lifting off the loud pedal too quickly.

The tune on it is default apart from max downforce.

You're right matt about the lift off oversteer, very stable under accel though. you can get the power down very early.

Drives very much like the F50 in S Class.

joel, make sure your nat settings are set to open. Google "xbox live nat settings open" or similar for a how to guide.

hopefully, after reading on the official forums, we should get a title update before we race which will help with connection issues.

but, yeah if you disappear i will re-invite you after the current race, assuming you are still online.

NAT is always open and is rather reliable. Used to get host quite alot on call of duty. Sometimes I just get a blip in my Internet and get kicked out of whatever I'm in.

Sorry, I must have had the lobby set to invite only. I'll leave it at friends only from now on. That way anyone on my friends list can jump in.

My design for the night...



I've been working on doing some Mercedes F1 style liveries for the Mercs in my garage (hopefully to sell on the storefront) and over the weekend I spent some time creating the Petronas, Syntium and Aabar vinyls. I thought I would try them out here. Quite pleased with it.
