Can I upload my ghost for a friend to play against?

I just wondered as I'm incredibly short of time to play proper xbox live, whether I can upload my ghost on a particular lap/circuit and a friend, say over the course of a few days, try and beat it?

Or is it that you can only offer the time completed for a particular lap to beat and that's that?

Also how could it work with cars to make it fair? If I used an R8 to do a fast course how can it be sure for a friend to beat the course fairly? Is this where class cars come in?

Sorry, I'm a forza newb who's just getting to grips with it. great game though

I am not sure about the ghost thing but all the top people on the leaderboards have ghosts you can race against so I guess there is some way to do it as it always saves your ghosts. Each leaderboard for each track is also done for each car class aswell but there can be vast differences in cars within a class so your pal could have an advantage

I think ghosts only get uploaded if the time is in the top 100 for a track and class. In other words if you used a Silverstone National with a R10 TDi, then that time would be uploaded to the R1 - Silverstone National leaderboard.

aw, would be a nice feature. I'm never online when my friends are due to an ahem, new arrival

I'm trying to think of a little game/challenge in which I won't be left out.

Hmmm...

It's ok I'm satisfied. I can toggle friends times, laps and circuits, etc and do my best to beat them. Makes some sort of personal satisfaction to text your mate "your lap time on .. is demolished"

However, I've also noticed how much I need to improve before going online with the various clubs. How on earth do people get those top lap times?
