Drive train swap has been fixed. Every upgrade is cool as long as it maxes out at C500.

RWD isn't a great option at shorter wheelbases.
Also the Mini Cooper @Rally Monte Carlo wants to disagree

I saw that Ford Transit on the leader boards.

Maybe give an Integra Type R DC2 or DC5 a drive in the real world then come back and say that. Any sorted FWD car with an LSD is an absolute hoot to drive. Fiesta ST with a mountune map is the dogs danglies to drive also. Like a little go kart!
If you weren't being facetious, then cost and safety. It's much cheaper to make a FWD car and 99% of drivers don't care.

Nice how fast Reward credits are sent now. I claim the credits, turn on FM6 and they're there.
With FM5 and FH2, it could be hours or even days in some cases.

That car is actually pretty gentle.
Im not sure im going to use it, i got a few other candidates to fine tune before i decide tomorrow.

Gurkhas, on the other hand, are highly recommended.
I may or may not be setting up a roadblock during race 1.

Heh. That would be awesome watching the transit van trying to clear that roadblock.

Why am I getting the feeling that I'll be seeing a lot of Alfa Giulias tomorrow?

P3trans tune?
My apologies if this has been asked before but I'm still waiting for my Ford GT reward from playing the demo. I got a message saying I earned it but can't find the download message in the messaging center for it. I looked for it under DLC and Gifts section and nothing.
Is this a known issue or they still sending it out in waves?

I don't think it's a widespread issue, but there were a handful of people on the FM.net forums who apparently never got theirs either. How long ago did you play the demo?
TylerDurden4321

You are 67% correct.
How long do you give the tyre-walls in the chicanes that aren't tied together?
We should bet on it. I'll give the first one 6 car passes. Maybe a little too optimistic, but betting is a risk and reward thing.
I hereby bledge that i will not run an alfa giulias.

Hey, no Giulia frowning.
I'm just hoping I won't be seeing every 2nd gaffer in one... and that for the next 4 races.

Its never going to happen p3tran has a pathological hatred of them, I've watched his ghosts...
Is that and the 97 Civic dominating the leaderboards for a reason? I keep seeing people using the Civic in league play as well, but they never do that well.

Even though it's the car I'm fastest in around rio coastline I don't feel comfortable doing it if that makes sense... I don't really have fun driving that car, it's too edgy. Certain cars are better in hot lap scenarios than they are in real races.
Then there is also the fact that you need to stick to that car for the next few races as well.
I think I'll be going DTM or Rally tomorrow
Sorry i got resting ass face, i cant help it.
I played the demo maybe around 2 weeks ago? I'd say a week or two back.
Started Forza 6 a couple days ago. Was there a time limit to be eligible to get the car? What's odd is that in the message center I got the message confirming that I got the car by playing the demo but no other message to download it.
Oh well, I'll probably just buy it in-game for the achievement too.

Why would be under downloads? The car is already in the game.
Shouldn't it just be in free cars in the find cars section?
Yeah the car is in the game but to redeem it you're supposed to get another message with a download button in the message center, from what I've been reading.
Just checked again, still nothing. I also re-downloaded and played the demo again to see maybe something weird happened and nope. Nothing.
EDIT: double checked the free cars section under Find a car and couldn't find it there (in case they changed the delivery system), got all other free cars though so the list is empty.

I saw
the Limo
Edit:
I'm FFsReedRichards, did you use my tune for the 55seconds time?!?? I uploaded it only after I got that time from your screenshot with it, so normally it shouldn't show as downloadable from the leaderboard. (and my 53 time is BS anyway; should be invalid imo for chicane-cutting where the tyres used to be)
Edit2:
It was just under "Gifts" in the "Messages" (a tab somewhere on the right of where your drivatar and tuning rewards show up). Once you clicked A (or X?) on that message, the message went away and you had the car under "my cars". That's how it was for me.
Yeah I mentioned before I looked in there and found nothing, despite getting a message in message center saying I earned the car for playing the demo.
Helios my man I hope you're reading

I've setup a doc for standings here. Already got the time trials in there (tab at the bottom). Question for the group: Should I be using GAF names or Live names in the doc? Most are the same or very similar, but some have no connection at all. I'm good either way. If you've posted a time and I haven't put it into the doc just let me know.
I'll be sending friend requests to everyone on this list. If you are online at 3pm I'll send you an invite into the lobby. If you are online and don't want to race because you're in the middle of a 3 hour endurance race or a raid in destiny just ignore it.
