Aw shucks, it looks like the ACRs made for good times.
Sorry about missing the races, fellas. I'll try and have my shit together for next week.

Something i haven't thought about before now.
I was upgrading my supra, and then all of a sudden i couldn't open upp the hood in autovista mode.
Traced back my steps and it seems like you can only pop the hood if it has the original aspiration aka twin turbo.
Has anyone else noticed that yet?

They very first update fixed it for me.

Yeah I still have it.
Can the tuning setup and design be removed from the VIP cars?
I tried to paint one and the manufacturers colours are no longer available.

Zorbs went into the corkscrew slower than normal, I swerved to avoid a collision, then Crude finished me off

Just a quick question for you Forza 5 owners. If I can't find a VIP version of the game, can I buy that upgrade on the store? Or can I buy the Day 1 cars on the store also?
I haven't been following this game as much as the last few Forza games but that is going to change now.

I think you can buy a VIP upgrade on the store but I don't think you can buy the Day 1 upgrade. I could be completely wrong though so don't quote me on that.
Yep, VIP status is $20 in store. Thought about buying it but didn't care for any of the cars they were offering. Might bite later. Got my xb1 this weekend and enjoying it so far. Playing so much Horizon has ruined my skills

Thanks for the info, but I was able to find an LE online so I ordered that. Can't wait to finally join ForzaGAF again.
Crude, Zorbs, Soundscream: You all better watch your asses now!

I'm not scared. There are no Volvos to upgrade in this game.

Excellent!
One of the expansion packs going to be the Volvo pack, then?

Haha, don't worry, I am sure I can find some other oddballs to race with.
Good god man, I can only wish.

Did your replays have any issues?

Are you still having problems with stuttering?
Read somewhere it could be a caching issue with people who use the instant on feature. A proper hard reset, unplugging and all may fix it.

Hmmmm will try when I get home.
V8 Super Cars
Stock #5 Ford Performance Racing FG Falcon OR #1 Toll Holden Racing Team Commodore VE. Tracks will be Sebring Full - 5 laps and Silverstone International - 7 laps.
Here is the first race from last weekend. Second race will be up later today. Soundscream, it wasn't an issue with the replay but the file/codec type that my capture card made. Youtube didn't like it and was giving me crazy upload time of 7748 minutes. Had to re-encode it with proper settings.

Put this together quickly, might change the typeface for the numbers. Still only had like 10 minutes to do it.
Dude are you able to share the number panel graphic please? Would be nice if we all included it on our cars for each season race.

I can share a number panel, but not that one. It uses a logo made by m0dus I think, so its locked. I can put together another one without the gaf sphere. It'll be up later today.

Presumably we can find the m0dus GAF logo given the inability to share it with individuals.
Next gen!

Hellz ya! Here's hoping I will have my system in time for this!
Make sure to cash in your Forza rewards for the month. The cars are 600k each. But if you're not going to mess with the tuning then you can just rent the car on race day.

I have been cashing in my rewards every month, so I am HOPING that they will appear at once when I log into the game for the first time.
I think they expire at the end of the month, but I could be wrong.
I was just messing around and made this for league racing numbers. The bottom part is left blank so you can put any brand you want there. I don't think the orange is right but when I get it I can share this design with everyone.
Speaking of the league I forgot to post the current standings.

The second race is still being uploaded to youtube. It's at 35% now, should be another hour before it's ready here. Going over the replays to do these videos I feel really bad for SoundScream, he got nailed a bunch. Sorry dude I was one of those hits.
EDIT: Second race is up on youtube now.

I think the expiration is how long you have to claim the rewards, right? I have been claiming them through the site every month, so they should still be on my Forza 5 account when I log in.
I assume it is similar to when you would log in after a long time and have a bunch of free VIP cars and storefront money waiting for you.
I mean, back when T10 still gave us free VIP cars....

I was more upset at the two Ford V8 drivatrs that totally destroyed my Holden during the Road Atlanta race we did. Its like they were working together.

Great job with the replays dude. Really enjoyed watching the races back! Can't wait for Sunday!
bravo zorbsie! well done, also I see that you edited the laguna video to show all the "action"
(unless me and crude were fooling around in dat sand for >30 seconds that is
i agree soundscream got a lot of heat, and remember that he was sick when playing and had to get out of bed to participate
crude also got some heat, and he was not alone either. these cars are twitchy when on full throttle, let alone exiting a turn on full throttle, and it doesnt take much for shit to happen
the battle of v8's will be ..interesting
ps. about the forza-gaf racing number thing, why dont we just ask m0dus to make a blank one for us whenever he has time?
this way, it will be uniform, official and sexy

You got me. I really wanted to show that split with me and SoundScream. Block Mate just went straight through. I was going to do it as an inset image, but I didn't want to take too long setting it up and uploading. I should have put a title card up that said, "Meanwhile in the back..."
The two incidents happened almost at the same time.
This sounds like a great idea. Or if he's not around we could always ask H3rTz DoNuT. I'm sure either of those guys could whip something up for us that would look badass.
yeah, done already. I've been staying up especially for this. drank too much coffee a couple of hours ago and now having trouble laying down to sleep
thank you for the heads up, and hopefully catch you there too (as long as I get a freakin' code

I have an eye for some details, and this is an extra effort very well done. bravo again my friend.
and yes, somebody talented should make us some kickass stencils to slap on our cars. else I threaten that I will paint them myself for everybody, and trust me it will be very awful
one more thing: did my car appear to you guys when racing ...oem cyan like in the replay? shit I spend more time doing my livery than the tune itself. dont know how I managed to fuck it up and race in oem colors if its not a bug
