I took some pictures from my replay of the race.

Starts out well, got nudged and have to take the first corner sideways.

Disrespecting the curbs

At the 11th lap, I'm faced with this situation, who payed you guys to do that? Tell me and I'll double it.

And a picture of the last corner (2nd last?), which had the usual madness going on in the chicanes, and as you see in the background, it's still going on.

Really? Cause I tried using it this morning and I had the same issues plus no one could hear me. Very strange. I was about to buy a new headset today but you have me thinking maybe I shouldn't

Have you tried in an actual XBL party? Don't rely on the Forza in-game chat since it starts to crap the bed at about the 13-person mark.

Awesome

Finally did Sebring 300 Endurance Race.

There were maybe 5 of the 86 Laps which I did not have to rewind.

Took me 3hr 10mins of recorded driving and went up 13 Levels. Now Level 89.

Fuck me imagine if we played with sim damage on.

Nobody would make it out alive.

I would try a different game first or a private party to make sure before buying a new headset.

My recap montage:

I'm in tears right now from laughing, in the one shot you can see me trying to figure out where to go because of all the mayhem in front of me.

Well, what kind of qualification do you have?
Do you make stupid liveries; what's you crash-count per driven mile like etc. ?
DO YOU LIKE GURKHAS!!!?

I'm around 150, I usually get 25k or 50 k from the spins. Every fifteen spins I get a million. Whenever there is one reward car in the middle I win it, no matter what (I think it's some kind of progression thing where the game gifts you cars you might need to progress in career). My all time earnings so far are about 20 million, from races and spins. Should be around 2.5 million from races, the rest from spins. Which is an average of 100k per spin for all my levels. Considering you can get a spin every three races and you average around 20k per race it is without a doubt more profitable to just concentrate on getting levels instead of increasing difficulty to earn a couple of 1000 more per race. Then again I'm already at a point where the cash is just piling up. I'm sitting on 15 million right now (and I was down to 0 two weeks ago) and have no real use for them. And getting 2 million every month from Rewards. And you can easily make another 4 million each month by joining the livery contests.

I was going to make a recap video, but this sums up race day much better. It's pure gold. Love it.

BlindSwordsmanZ, Races are on the weekend. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun. I'll be posting the race details shortly.

Holy shit I'm in tears... The gif lol...

Week 2 is coming.
Saturday was a great turn out and loads of laughs were had. We did work out a way to get the grid sorted. So this time we will have a 4 lap practice race with collisions off. You will try to get your best time in this race. The real race will use best lap times in ascending order for grid placement.

As always the lobby will be up at 3:00pm Eastern. The race should take 15 - 20 minutes to finish. After the race feel free to stick around and do more races with the group.

Can't make it on Saturday? Join in the fun by doing this weeks time trial. Post your best time on this weeks track before the race on Saturday to be included. Points will be given on time trials as well as the actual race.

Saturday race will be Indianapolis - Grand Prix Circuit
Don't forget that the car you used last week has to be used this week. Fear the limo!

I'll start off the times by posting my own horrible time: 1:44.875

Hope to

crash

see you there this weekend.

Questions/Suggestions? I'm all ears.

 

[Lima]

In ascending order - no you mean Zorbs.

 

[Devildoll]

Or was it descending.

 

[Lima]

That's the beauty of it, nobody knows.

 

[RawNuts]

We should probably host a little lobby tonight just to make sure that is figured out beforehand.

 

[zorbsie]

In ascending order - no you mean Zorbs.

Damn it Lima, I thought I figured it out and now I'm doubting myself.

We should probably host a little lobby tonight just to make sure that is figured out beforehand.

I can get behind this idea. Let me know when you are around tonight.

 

[TylerDurden4321]

Awesome!

Also check the google doc list from this post and maybe add yourself(quote the post to see the link).

Added myself to the spreadsheet. Thanks for the info and for not forcing me into fight club

 

[jello44]

Which time trails? Because you have me listed with a 53:116 and I posted a 56:116.

Zorbs, just in case you missed this. Not sure where you got that 53 time.

 

[op_ivy]

My recap montage:

Lol. This is why I'll stick with the shitty ai and time attack

 

[RawNuts]

I can get behind this idea. Let me know when you are around tonight.

I'll be on at around 9pm est.

Also, the time trial times are to be set in the same car that we chose for the main series? Or are we able to hotlap anything C class?

 

[Noobcraft]

My current best lap around Indy GP is 1:42:138.

Also I've updated my livery to hopefully shave a few seconds off my time on race day.

 

[zorbsie]

Zorbs, just in case you missed this. Not sure where you got that 53 time.

Will update.

Also, the time trial times are to be set in the same car that we chose for the main series? Or are we able to hotlap anything C class?

Same car is the series.

OK the standings have been updated. Keep those times coming in everyone.

 

[Devildoll]

the car has to be the same, but you can change your parts/tune on it from track to track.

 

[zorbsie]

That is correct.

 

[RoKKeR]

Got it. Can't make the race this weekend but I'll try to put some laps in before I head out of town.

Still can't get over that .gif, so good.

 

[GHG]

Can I at least change my car considering I was pretty much last in the previous race?,

Don't think it will change anything in the grand scheme of things!

If the lobby is as laggy as it was last time around in the next race I don't think ill stick with it either, not really worth it. I'll just participate on a time trial basis if that's the case.

My recap montage:

Haha, looks like great fun!

 

[RawNuts]

Posted a time of 1:37.132 tonight; you all may want to watch my ghost, because you'll be as amazed as I was about what is considered "clean" on a certain corner.

My recap montage:

Ha, this tells the story of my race day. It has the both the gang bang crash that made me decide to switch from my Nissan to the Nova, and then when you fishtailed me in the last corner.

 

[Mascot]

My recap montage:

Awesome. That not only wins GAFgif 2015 but also gets a special mention as the most quoted gif on any one NeoGAF page, ever.

Brilliant!

 

[Cheeseman Battitude]

I love the part with the Driveclub car escaping round the corner unscathed

 

[willbsn13]

My recap montage:

Amazing.

Will be putting a lap time up for Indy soon. Hopefully can make Saturday as well this week!

 

[SarBear]

Nice. I posted a 1:37:433 in the Honda on that course. I wonder how much quicker the Elan is...

 

[Marky Mark]

What is going on with this car and its body kit, etc?

 

[Lima]

Looks better in Driveclub that's for sure.

 

[Noobcraft]

What is going on with this car and its body kit, etc?

It has a rally body kit equipped for no particular reason other than I thought it looked cool.

It's similar to this:

 

[Marky Mark]

Cool. I actually thought turn 10 had put those crazy Japanese spoiler things in the game for a second. You know the ones in talking about.

 

[SolarMystic]

Wow at that gif! Suddenly I'm not so worried about my driving!

I'm gonna have to join in with you guys soon, maybe this weekend.

 

[Bumhead]

The GAF races look like a ton of fun! Great stuff.

I think I've got enough on with Drivatars though. Got overtaken by 2 cars on the last corner of Sebring last night to finish 4th.. *sadface*

 

[TylerDurden4321]

What goes as a clean lap on Indy GP is a fucking travesty.

short-cutting turn 1, 6,7 and 12 doesn't "dirty" your lap. That's a lot of seconds to be gained there.

...makes me wish we'd do non-replay onboard cam video posting of the lap. My 1:40.5 is clean, I could do 1:40.0 clean, but below that I'd probably have to cut track with my Lancia 037.
