Some of the rivals mode allows you to use tuned cars, they will indicate if they are stock only. If you own the actual vehicle, you should be able to pick it from your garage for those rival races I believe. Can someone confirm that please? I'm at work at the moment otherwise I would check myself.Quote said:
And I see my name on the list lol

My time is done with a garage car. If you already have a tuned F class car that meets the requirements then you can use that.

No, in fact I should get paid for even tolerating Hockenheim. =D
I don't really think T10 would withhold tracks just to make DLC dollars, especially since they said tracks don't sell well. But I know if they release either as DLC, I will buy 'em!
Just wanted to chime in on the car club issue and say that Ive been around enough GAF guilds/clubs/leagues to know that around launch time its HYPE city and everyone is around all the time.
Give it a few weeks and some people are going to disappear off the face of the earth Forza wise. I know there are a good number of GAF that will be around for the long haul and the club will be great but I doubt it will be 100+ active members in 3 months.
Having said that, I would gladly move to a GAF2 club or just drop from the club if asked. I plan to be playing Forza a lot so I'll be around if spots open up.

I have been trying to get a decent time on the Fujimi Kaido full track for GAF club.
I just can't come in under 9:45 or something. How did someone clock 8:50????
Hey guys on higher HP card like lets say 599 HP. I can't play with out at least one assist on. I was using stability control.
Are you guys able to get by with out using any assists on the higher HP cars?

Put it this way, It would be better to move to Gaf2 instead of no club at all if you want to drop. I am in teh same boat as you, I have no problems dropping out to give others a chance into the club, but I still want to be in a club and if my choice is no club or gaf2, I would go to gaf2. As it is, I am in gaf1, but willing to move if the community decides to do a gaf2.

Assist free! What does the paper clip mean after "AUTO" on the assists section?
Oh you BASTARD!
The last one is ghosts you can download I think.

I was wondering the same thing in the demo, also (this may be a stupid question) what are the "half and whole" pills representing?

They are the different levels of assist. ABS = None, ABS on and Auto braking TCS = TCS off, On and maybe some auto steer? etc

Look what just show up for me GAF!! I already take it for a test run and wow what a difference between this and the old crappy standard pedal. I can actually go at full speed!
I have to go figure out the brake setting later but so far it's just awesome.
On another note I got the LE from Microsoft but they didn't put in the pre-order code, I wonder if they will email those out like Amazon too. Anyone else got their code?
Amid all the club talk, I forgot to tell my Kinect and speed wheel impressions:RS4- said:
I am super-bummed by this, but I have to report a Kinect fail. Autovista works fine, but honestly, after using it once, you're going to want to just use a controller.
Headtracking however, completely failed for me. My Kinect is mounted on my wall, and in most games, I barely have enough room in front of my couch for the suggested space. Now, when I sit down on my couch, all of a sudden I'm too far away for Forza headtracking to work. It's like they want you to be four feet from the Kinect. I messed with it for a bit, trying to get it to work, but I'm sad to say that I couldn't at that distance (about 8 feet from the Kinect).
As for the speed wheel, there have been multiple posts giving it praise, including several from me. BUT...that said...it is a disaster in the menus. No bumpers means no searching through different mail sections, no moving to different paint styles...basically if you don't want to do anything besides race, it's fine. Otherwise, you have to turn it off and turn on a regular controller. Really lame. Also, several times the game recognized the speed wheel as an ffb wheel, and I had to restart the game. Another bummer.

I am not sure hot they are going to integrate the track since the event grid is pretty much set. I mean they could do Monthly Event or something but other than that I just don't see how it will work unless they will insert track into already set event then you would have people bitch and moan to no end about how their event is not the same as other.
Anyway, the career mode for me is vary enough and the cars are just so good most of the time I don't feel boring even when the old F3 track show up I was so jazz to drive my new cars on it.
edit: I just thought of something, the two tracks that are DLC are they in the career mode? If they are then that would mean track are integrate-able.

let me know if you figuer something for the breaks, I feel like I have to press really hard and it doesn't slow it down as much as it should. Loving the pedals so far though

There are so many Rivals events. Probably 20 or 25 of them. Which ones are people gravitating towards? I did the TG: Reasonably Priced Car, and Senna last night. I'm staying away from any of the non-spec ones until my garage fills out a bit.
Picking up the game on the way home. I was buying a new car in real life yesterday! Now I can run with it in the game while I wait (impatiently) for it to be made and delivered.
I'd like to get in on the club(s). Can somebody sum up where we are with that. I found the google doc (no link in the OP) with over 110 names on it. Should I just add mine to it, wait, or some other alternative?

I want to be in the club but havent made enough posts, so here is a quality one.
My congrats to Turn 10.
I own one of these:
I like how the stats on the car are not the manufacturers published stats, and they REALLY did test this car.
For example, BMW say the e39 M5 goes from 0-60mph in 5.0 seconds, this is not entirely true.
Jalopnik managed to get it (stock) to do 0-60 in 4.4s. I personally have managed 4.7s, other mags had apparently published similarly.
BMW also published the top speed as 155mph in Europe, and 186mph in USA (the needle only goes to 185mph), so they think, "it buries the needle, just put it as 1 more, who cares how fast it can actually go? who would be mad enough to try that?"
I myself have taken my e39 M5 to 192mph (and as I stated earlier gone from 0-60mph in 4.7s) and what stats do Forza show for the base car?
0-60mph - 4.7s
top speed - 193mph
Almost absolutely BANG on to reality. What makes it awesome is that there are no accurate published stats from BMW (that I know of) and these guys got it RIGHT because they really drove it.
The engine sounds are very good too, seems a tiny bit higher than reality, but still, very good. Also the reason I knew (thought) I was going 192mph was because I have a tomtom, because as I said earlier, the speedo only goes to 185.

Whoa hold it right there! I have the cheaper Fanatec pedals... You're telling me I can't go full speed!?

I haven't even driven on Infineon yet! I'll hit one of those up tonight.sneaky77 said:
That one I certainly noticed. That will be a popular for sure.Minimaul said:
I have the Fanatec Clubsport Pedals. I remember the braking thing with Forza 3. There's a knob behind the brake pedal that you can dial in the sensitivity with. I can't remember if clockwise or counter-clockwise makes it more or less sensitive. You might want to play with that though at both extremes and see if it makes a difference.sneaky77 said:

Infineon is definitely my favorite track so far in the game. I love taking muscle cars and go around that track.
