yeah, its a small club and right now the majority of us are still focused on career, with some light designing, tuning (and inputting to club garage), and rivals on the side. i would imagine when launch buzz disappears we will do more online racing together AND with gaffers from our friends list.
i'm not trying to split up gaf by any means, but if anyone wants to join, even if its just temporarily till the gaf club shrinks and becomes stable, you are more then welcome. search "Rally Club Positano" or "rcp"
were you expecting something different?
i made a logo and a club car last night too =)
I haven't had the money issue in a while so I have no idea what was causing it.
I tried 270 degree and it feels smoother and slightly different than 900 I dunno, due to the counter steer ratio change there shouldn't be that big of a difference but not having to wind the steering out as you accelerate into a sweeper due to the speed sensitive steering makes it easier.

Nope! Will gladly swap for a 1M when it arrives though. Any takers?
One thing I forgot to mention: the LE is NOT worth sixty sterlings. I feel like a twat for paying half as much again just to get a little crown next to my name, a Tom Thumb book I'll never read, a metal box I'll never see again and a bunch of cars I'll never drive.
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Money would have been better spent on the DLC pass.
All those of you with the pauper version: bravo. You made the right decision.
Right about the club, tried to be as open as possible and to make sure everyone had visible input on what happened with it.
People didn't bother or had many conflicting opinions.
For the most part it people wanted one master club to join.
The problem is there were easily over 200 people who wanted in and 100 slots, so instant problem.
Then the ways we worked the 200+ people to all get a go in the one club people wanted while rewarding the guys who felt they earned a permanent spot till it balance's out over the weeks to a regular 100 caused the problem.
I've dealt the the PMs, trying to keep everyone happy and as fair and open as I can but it's also a headache and time sink for me.
We now have a bunch of options:
So what do you say fellas?

We now have a bunch of options:
1. I get firm with the club and make yet more changes and hassle for people and then lock it down.
2. I pass ownership to someone else who can do a better job. (anyone want to raise there hand?)
3. Close down the club and GAF naturally starts a bunch of seperate clubs for now then that may turn into one club later.
4, 5, 6.... Anything else GAF can come up with.

Racing club should be separate. Most people probably are in it for exclusive cars and liveries.Gowans007 said:

Just keep it how it is now dude and just stop worrying about it. In a couple of weeks it will calm down and everyone will chill out.
But I will stick by my idea of having a Required Level to join. Prevent those who are barely going to play from using up slots.

Keep the club for a month as it is. Then after the hype dies down see who is a mainstay. I think cutting each week is too stressful for the players and for you running it.
Honestly, after a month or two I doubt we'll see many people really involved and still racing to where multiple clubs will be needed.
Splitting up the club now and creating small groups will just alienate everybody from each other even more.
There is barely enough interest for 2 clubs. Do the GAF one you run and the one that op_ivy is running and it will settle.
I think honestly it's being made more of a deal than it should be. 2 clubs, combine in a month or so, if they are both extremely active then all power to each and we'll setup a community thread for rivals/Gamertags/friends list action.
Stop stressing, play the game ... all will end up being fine in a month or two.
Now to slog through this workday until I get home and start beating people in Rivals mode.

But I aint even mad, as it seems as though your name has been sullied once again, only this time on the Infineon LFA challenge. Big Takeover? More like a Big Takedown for me, lolamirite.
Now, would you kindly not rain on my parade and exact revenge right away? I want to savor this moment.
Et tu, ive-aye?op_ivy said:
I should have never left the cookie jar on the counter for you dirt bags!!!!
the club thing isnt a huge deal anyways really. its like a game specific friends list with a shared garage (but, if you've been playing the game much, you should already have LOADS of your own cars and LOADS of credits). most of the actual community side is handled here, in this thread, for race meet ups, challenges etc. i'm not in the gaf club presently, but that really doesnt hold me back how i interact with you guys in the slightest.
on another note, is there any way to delete the Turn 10 Community Message in my inbox about launch day? i hate seeing it pop up constantly and i think its something meaningful

Good lord, I am glad I am not the only one. That thing has been sitting there mocking me for a while now. I am not sure why we can't delete it.
Guys I have a question:
I put the codes from all the DLC cars that I got. Now when I go see some cars to buy, some of them says on the top left corner "NEW".
Are those the cars that I got from the DLC, right? Sorry for the stupid question...
On another topic, I only tried World Tour so far, guess I'm not like the rest of the people, but will be in Rivals later on!
I will also request some help in the future regarding some stuff I might need help from driving assists, etc, but I will post a picture about that later.
If everyone want to add another GAFfer, please, check my profile, say you are from here and Add me on XBL, thank you.

I think the gaf club is probably best for organizing online racing and having a selection of vehicles if we want to race in particular classes or game types.
I'm grinding affinity as I go through single player. Hopefully I'll have some b and a class tunes by the end of the weekend.
Unfortunately I don't think I can host online races due to running triple screen (my router doesn't react well to uPnP which is necessary for more than one xbox being connected to live behind a router.) But I'll give it a shot sometime this weekend.
What game types is Gaf club interested in? I love circuit racing.
Are there any requests for particular tunes? I'd like to get started but don't have a reference for what people want or need.

Thanks man, yeah it's been good fun. Great GAF customs too but has taken some time and effort. Think it's time for another person to have a go.Shaneus said:Holy shit, the music in this is awesome.
BTW Appreciate your efforts, Gowans. I'm not sure anyone would've been able to do a better job given the circumstances

Anyway, I just discovered that world tour becomes useless once you've done the ten seasons once. It gives you races you've already won in the selection (with no indication that you already did the race), which is completly dumb. Looks like I'm back in the event list just like I was in FM3 after completing the first six seasons...
Well that sucks. I'm on season 9, level 51. Didn't realize that some of the events have been repeating themselves. I would have skipped them had I known.
And to be honest, if I wasn't attempting to get all the achievements, I would only use the event listing rather than the world tour. Like to be able to change the AI difficulty if I need to.
Also, I have been forced to change my car many times. Thought Dan said I could take one car and finish world tour with it. That's not even close to being the case.
Also didn't mix things up in world tour as much as I would like.
In 7 seasons, I only did the passing cars event once. And autocross 4 times.

Just be aware of the cars you are gifted. Also keep in mind that some of the most expensive cars are ferraris. And there is an achievement for owning all the Ferraris. Might be able to kill two birds with one stone here.
While being gifts a car in career, one opportunity allows you to pick from the most expensive Ferrari and the Shelby Dayonta (I think that's the name). These are two of the most expensive cars...so pick wisely.{/SPOILER]

I noticed that as well.
It's also weird that matte paints are on some of the cars by default (roof of the 599 GTO, for example), but we still can't paint matte in the paint booth.

THIS! This is all I wanted for Forza 4 and they taunt me by having it as a stock option! It feels like every other racing game has flat paints as options now except for Forza. You would almost think they could patch it since it already exists in the game.
Bah!
Pulled a Dr's appointment excuse to show up late for work and picked up my LE at Game this morning - only had time to install, grab all the DLC and do a couple of quick races.
Looking amazing - pretty amusing to see the Top Gear track in digital form too. Dad worked at Dunsfold Aerodrome before BAE shut it down & TG started using it, so was pretty crazy recognising the building down the right hand side

You've done the best you can. Thank you!Gowans007 said:
My 2 cents is if somebody else is going to run it, it should be ivy though. The guy is a GAF racing fixture. I don't know if he wants to or not, but he should be given first refusal.

I had the old MS wheel for F2, got the Fanatec PWTS for F3 and now I'm seriously considering getting the Fanatec CSR Elite when it comes out. I've already ordered the CSR Elite pedals to replace the base set I have.
I bought the F4/Speed Wheel bundle and I don't regret it one sec. That little wheel is fucking mind blowing. It shouldn't work that well. It's like it reads your mind or something.
That being said, it won't replace my Fanatec stuff any time soon.
