FM1 still looks rather good for an xbox game, alpine raceway really needs to return, COME ON TURN 10!

Shame the PAL version had no 60hz option, it was a nice looking game but sucked at 25fps.
edit: Sorry, I mean on Xbox BC, looking into it now seems like there is a fix after all.

I couldn't make it today, I hope you guys had a great time. I'll bo home all Sunday next week though.
Really? How? I still know exactly where my disc is, wouldn't mind firing it up. I remember trying it a while back but it didn't look at all upscaled and it's framerate left a LOT to be desired.
Also, it's been a while since I've been in this thread, things have just gotten away from me
But I'm back(ish), and come bearing gifts:

Man, I've been so crazy busy at work I missed out on the weekend fun. It looks like I'll be working this weekend too.
I've got a bunch more I can post if any one want to see them.
Lexus brought the LFA to one of our "Cars & Coffee" type events here in Seattle last summer, I had the chance to drive it; wonderful car, although the sticker price deters my interest in owning one.
Great fun as ever yesterday - nice to see a slightly bigger field than recently too.
Felt like i had cars that were set up more competitive than usual but ended up making even more mistakes - apologies to anyone i bounced off.
Getting confused by the figure of 8 crossover and taking out Crude was pretty cretinous, then i topped that by completely missed my braking point at the 2nd mulsanne chicane and cannoning into figgy :/

Apparently you can get PAL 60 and 30fps (with dips) by running it at 640x480, 4:3.
It's hardly worth trying imo.

Just thought I would post some shots of my new C-class beast!
I just entered a B-class roadster race around the Alps, and man, does this thing go!
Handles so well, a little underpowered, but still managed a 2nd place behind a missile car half a lap ahead of the pack. Great race though, great tune too, so wouldn't mind spending more time in this thing!

Anyone have any hints as to what cars might be appearing in the March car pack?
Any more info of this surprise we should be holding our breath for?

There's an embargo on the showcase so news will only come out on the 5th.
As for the march DLC, considering they showed the ZL-1 in an official Chevrolet video, I think there's good chance that we'll get it this month. Beyond that, no clue, but considering the awesomeness of the previous DLCs, I look forward to it !

Oh ok, I watched the video with no sound on my phone so I just assumed it was the ZL-1 since the real and in-game dashboards looked the same.
BTW, you've been extremely silent about those supposedly upcoming big news, any hints ?
According to some sources, the big news is that the existing red coloured rumble strips in the game will be changed to pink instead....
FINALLY!!!

A bunch of cars that qualify for this are in the club garage now.

Ah, ok, not CanAm. Got overexcited there. That would be the 312PB then, actually. Still very sweet.

The Zagato, the 312P, the Ultima, the fucking 850 (actually saw an 8 Series a few weeks back on a parking lot, still a great looking car IMO) and the Clio !
Nice to see another great Alfa too, the more European classics the better.
I googled the Ford to see what it was, I can already see myself having way too much fun with this one. :lol
Also, they can't stop adding Chevys can't they ?

Damn that is niiiiiice.
Is there a list of all the cars added via DLC since launch?

The definitive list including hints from insider knowledge is at ForzaCentral
Which begs the question, what is different about the 2011 Wiesmann compared to the 2010 already in the game?
Edit: OK it seems like the factory wing and engine are different, the 2011 has the V8TT from the new M5 in it versus the older V10.

Wait a minute... Dead Poul??....WHAT THE FUCK?! Quantum leap am here!!!
Edit: If you mother fuckers think the Mazda 787B sounds good, please unzip your pants when that Aston Martin hits.

This is actually the car known as the PB, and was #1 on my list of cars wanted in Forza. Insta-buy to say the least. So stoked!
EDIT: I'm sort of wrong. The PB first appeared in '72. This is the predecessor to the PB, but not the 312P of the late 60's (two different cars have the same name).
No, we were right the first time. Its definitely the PB. Debuted in 71.
This car is gonna rock.
turn 10 makes the sexiest trailers! loved the record scratch to wood panel shot!
But instead of using a whole car slot for an upgrade like that, I'd really like to see them just add the engine swap function (and whatever goes along with it) and a new aero option to include the rear wing. That spot could have EASILY been used for something a little more exciting.

Looking forward to a few National Lampoon's Vacation inspired liveries on the squire.
That Ultima looks like it will be fun, but what makes it a 2012 model?
That Aston looks and sounds incredible!
Kind of happy for new cars, but will not be fully happy until I get the Mazda Rx3 and if they get around to it, the first gen (series 2) Rx7 - that would make my life complete in the Forza world.
Awesome shot of an awesome car, but WTF is going on here??
How is that badge stuck on, it's just floating there..... weird.
lol, great record scratch and fake wood American station wagon..
I called the Ultima GTR in my March wishlist a few posts ago.....i'm a stud.
Seriously though, my hats off to Turn 10's vehicle casting team. Another great list of cars.

HONKY LIPS!
All that I ever wanted from a videogame with cars after the 1999
Will be glorious, I will have 5 different setup models of this masterpiece.
I also hope how Haterz will come up with some great livery for this baby.

First DLC pack I've probably been super happy about. A nice mix of exotic new and old classics.
The Zagato, 312P and 850 are awesome.
Now where's the iconic '62 Ferrari GTO??

That Country Squire Wagon is going to be amazing. We better get a GT500 engine swap for that bad boy!
This pack is fantastic. So many great cars and that Zagato is gorgeous! Plus that 312P is going to sound freakin insane!

New Ferrari F12 Berlinetta unveiled today.
Hope we see this for DLC in a few months, but that might be too quick of a turnaround.
