Hadn't played in a couple days myself. Skyrim has gripped me again, while there's new maps for Battlefield out, so I've been checking that goodness out.

Just got to playing some finally and built my Euro car. Turned out quite well. I'll take some pics once I've got my GT2 car built and both cars painted.

Its amazing how important getting a good exit is for laptimes at Camino with D-class. You can mess up entry and lose a tenth or two, but mess up the exit and you can easily lose half a second or more. Really hoping for some luck in the first lap as its gonna be very hard to overtake here.

This is why you need to somehow sneak a Dodge Ram in there.

Just need to avoid you.

Dont know if you realize, but you also took me out in the Nurburgring race. lol

Really!? God, I just hit everyone.

I'm going to need video proof, however. I mean, I'll admit that if it's me going in the Forza-grass or someone getting a nudge......that I'll turn into a fender, but I just can't imagine me rough housing my fellow members. LoL

It doesn't show the accident actually happening, but you can see the before and after of it:

1st lap, 3rd corner. I'm the green and black Mustang you spin out.

You told me I was going to get rear ended if I kept going through the turns so slow on the Nurburgring race. Just sayin....


I did try to take them faster and screwed up a couple enough for you get enough speed to pass me where you did. I was really inconsistent that race though, otherwise I think I had enough of a lead that maybe I wouldn't have been caught. It was fun though.

 

[retroBrand]

I noticed retroBrand's been quiet, too, since trying to race with a Mustang. Stick to those Chevy boxes, my friend.

Bow tie 'til I die, but I made an exception...

Oh, I got tapped on my rear side...and i was losing traction, that's why I ....nudged...you. Purely an accident my friend! Watch the replay from my POV.

Shhh.....look. See. What had happened was.... All right, I just couldn't take it, you were really fast on the straights but turned slow as molasses. I felt like taking you completely out, to be honest, but fighting those demons man. One day at a time.

Heh, that straightline speed had to be made up for somewhere. I figured you were just messing with me, seeing if I would do what I did and screw up turns taking them faster, lol.

I noticed I was slowing down way before you needed to, that's what prompted me to turn off ABS, which helped a ton. I did eventually just let you pass though, lol.

I'll have my eye on you on Sunday though, you better watch your back (cause I'll probably be way behind it, lol)

Nah, I'm usually not in the front of the pack, anyway. I don't consider myself a leader of the pack, but I'm extremely consistent (for the most part). So that's how I was able to come back in the Miata race before. I mean, you can try, but it's going to take a whole lotta hate for you to take retro's spot as my arch nemesis.

I heard he's got his sights on you, however..............

I have, man. Not trying to make you feel guilty here, but nobody hit you. It was just you taking me out. Both times.

Its cool, though. I know you didn't mean to

 

[SarBear]

Well, I apologize for the shot, either way. I thought I was either tapped, or just lost traction. I'll race more carefully.

Heh, I don't need any nemesis besides my own driving.

I guess that would explain how out of all the cars to choose from, he picks the same one as me for the D class race

Great minds think alike?

 

[Muerte_X]

I had no idea what to choose. I actually just picked Abarth, as it was the first manufacturer. I thought it looked cool, so I went with it. Turned out to be a good little car.

 

[retroBrand]

Who knows man, I might use the Alfa. It's nifty.

 

[SarBear]

After all that hilarious racing.....I accidentally stumble upon a racist website. How the fuck. Seriously.


Night completely ruined.

Stormfront? Fox News? GlennBeck.com?

Here, let me cheer you up.

 

[p3tran]

the possibility for me to be in my house sunday has increased, therefore seems like I will be able to join.

I know you are all preparing alfa gta's, abarth 131 and that featherweight lotus, but I will be racing you not in a leaderboard car but with my daily driver

but with sarbear on the grid, maybe it makes sense to prepare a truck so I can take all the bumping ppPPp

 

[nagge]

That's not pre 1980 though p3tran

 

[p3tran]

better make a mk1 then...

Yea, I realized my Euro car was 1986, not 1968. Sucks. I liked my Alfa Spider.

 

[Shortt Sirket]

My little Escort is ready to kick some ass!

And by that I mean struggle in the back of the field to not come in last place.

 

[The Stig]

for sunday is it miatas only again for the first race?

Id like to join in on the racing.

shit!! even the dlc rocco is '81..

so I got pissed and went full on and bought a 250 california 8)
3mil baby!! I hope the winning prize is big enough

here's a pic of its front side, cause I guarantee you will only be seeing the back side when we get online

 

[nagge]

Haha, that's pre 1960, so that doesn't qualify either

 

[SarBear]

Gift it to me, I'll edit it to make it 1960. Then I'll give it back.

 

[Shortt Sirket]

Damn dude, you need to pay more attention to the years. Just keep trying though, you are bound to get it right one of these days.

I do like this new thing of posting your cars before the race. I think we should try to encourage it every week. I will try to post mine tonight.

 

[p3tran]

VADER_NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
time to tune another car.

So nagge, can I bump the cali up to C for hockenheim or I'll fall to some restriction?

Damn I was running 1.16" constant with this baby.
Datsun 510 is of japanese origin, but was hugely popular (and sold) in europe. Does it count as avalid choice (sold to eu)?

If you manage to bump the model to a Miata you should be good

 

[p3tran]

Lolol
Thanks, you just saved me some time and forza monies.
My last weeks miata needs a little less grip, a little more power but it will do.

My quest for C class continues... datsun 510 valid?

D-class.

Weapon of choice for the GT2 event:

It's a beast to control, expect to see me sideways out of every bend.

I am going to rule not. The Sold in Europe part works with like the Escort. It is an American brand but was sold almost exclusively to Europe.

Here is a list of the cars that fit in the Year/Euro category. (Not sure on PI since I am at work.)

1980 131 Rally Abarth Stradale
1965 Giulia Sprint GTA Stradale
1964 DB5 Vantage
1977 V8 Vantage
1973 2002 Turbo
1971 3.0 CSL
1971 Pantera (I think its valid, but check with SarBear)
1964 250 GTO
1968 365 GTB/4 "Daytona"
1969 Dino 246 GT
1977 Escort RS1800
1961 E-type S1
1967 Miura P400
1974 Stratos HF Stradale
1972 Elan Sprint
1980 Esprit Turbo
1980 5 Turbo
1978 99 Turbo

 

[SarBear]

Yadda yadda, world record times....yadda yadda...

Bullshit

 

[nagge]

Bullshit

oh it will move once you get it right, getting there is tricky though.

My probable choice for the D-class event:

 

[op_ivy]

I hate you. Do you have ANY idea how frequently people think that is my SN? Its bloody insane.

lol. i think i heard someone call you that while you were away last race meet up

 

[Xun]

Is it ever likely Formula cars would ever make their way to Forza? I wish it had them in it.

Anyway, I'm still deciding on whether or not I should get Forza 4 just yet.

I barely played Forza 3 so I may just play that before I invest more of my money in this.

If you like these sim-style games, then you should definitely get Forza 4. It makes Forza 3 obsolete.

And no, Formula cars wont be in Forza anytime soon. Nor will you see any Ariel Atoms, Caterhams and any other cars that would require animating suspension systems. Maybe Forza 5?

 

[nagge]

Finally they've started wiping the leaderboards of glitch cars, it will apparently take some days for it all to be done.

Hey guys, I don't want to say it yet, cause the deal isn't 100% sure, more like 90% but I just tell you that something that was born in Forza 4 might end up on the real car in the real race series. I will know for sure at the begging of January and if everything goes right I give you more details then, cross your fingers

 

[op_ivy]

one of yours? awesome. hope you are compensated with real life credits to boot!

 

[H3rTz DoNuT]

Yeah, one of my designs, but none of those you've seen so far it was made just for them. I'll give more details when I know everything for sure
