sim steering also stops the game helping you counter steer a slide when you loose control.

Yes, by limiting stick travel.

Got my time down to 1:35:xxx in the Honda.

 

[Diablohead]

Yes, by limiting stick travel.

It seems more then that, back in forza 4 you could watch the front wheels twitch and correct themselves slightly while the car was out of control or drifting with no stick input, not sure how assists work in 6 but I would think the same things happen.

Honda?

Honda?

S2000

 

[Devildoll]

My name is S2000, Honda S2000.

Can I get the xxx so I can update your time?

So what's the ruling on the race for Saturday? Are we racing it legit or with the corner cutting?

I'd like to think we would be racing it legit. Going for lap times is one thing, but I'm going to be super pissed if I get lapped because someone is cutting 4 out of 14 turns. Things could get ugly if that's how we want to race on Saturday.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

I'd like to think we would be racing it legit.

Cool. That's the way I've been lapping.

 

[Diablohead]

The putting xbox to sleep, waking it up and having no control of the menu system in forza 6 is still there, I hope they can fix that.

 

[TylerDurden4321]

Cool. That's the way I've been lapping.

just saw that. Nice lap! Took me a few

*grinds teeth*

laps to beat that again. Now, I think, everyone in front of us used the shortcuts for their best lap. But my laps with the shortcuts (which I dirtied to make sure) didn't get me a much better time anyway. 1 to 1.5 seconds might be in it for me, but I'm fine with my regular 1:40.133 now.

Doing my best to avoid corner cutting - 1:37.065 (with plenty of room to improve) with the Honda S2000

I have BigT on my friends list, and he has a clean sub 1:40 time.

I feel like I've been close a few times, but I always lose it in that last technical section before the straight to the finish.

That's an impressive time w/o corning cutting. I'm driving a '73 Trans Am.

Anyone want to do some races tonight? I want to sort out the grid ordering before Saturdays race.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Sure. I'll be around. But it is Friday, so no promises I'll be any good ... as opposed to all the other times.

Can probably make it

Why is my wing shining like it was dipped in nuclear waste?

 

[zorbsie]

What time?

Probably around 6ish Eastern.

 

[jello44]

Probably around 6ish Eastern.

I don't get out of work until 6. :/

But if you're still on around 8 I can do a few then.

did you dip it in nuclear waste?

 

[Lima]

Honestly can some of you please buy the '97 Supra and put the Forza race wing on it and then do a night race. Tell me if you see the same thing or if my game is just weird.

Yes. Same thing in my game, so it's not just you.

 

[Devildoll]

Is anyone up for some racing right now? lets say a C class lobby, or something like that.

 

[frontieruk]

Give me 5

 

[Devildoll]

this is going to be great.

Edit: i'm having trouble creating a private lobby, i'm getting an allocation error message.
But if i get it setup I'm definitely not a stranger to night or rain.

 

[Noobcraft]

I'm down in a half hour or so as long as we get some night/rain races in

 

[zorbsie]

Ready to race too. Send me an invite if there is already a lobby set up.

 

[Devildoll]

aw yeah, we got like 6 people in this lobby.

 

[Lima]

Are you guys not in party chat?

 

[RawNuts]

I can only hear Scrone, we need a party...

 

[CrudeDiatribe]

Are you guys not in party chat?

No, we are listening to P3tran tell us about international trade.

 

[frontieruk]

No, we are listening to P3tran tell us about international trade.

Could just buy points from the Singapore ms store...

 

[Noobcraft]

No, we are listening to P3tran tell us about international trade.

Wait until he tells you about big pharma being the catalyst for world war 1&2

 

[Devildoll]

this is pretty OK, but seriously, their new album is really reminiscent of their older stuff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A4geQJY38c
I'd really recommend any COB fan to check out their new album

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Lap time for Indy GP: 1:40.443

 

[RawNuts]

Looking forward to tomorrow's race with ForzaGAF.

Lap Time for this week's time trial

 

[terrible]

The more I use the BMW 2002 Turbo the more I love it. Who knew E class could be so much fun. I'm allergic to drifting yet even I can throw that sucker sideways through every corner and come out facing the right direction on the other side.

 

[danowat]

Won't be racing later, as I'm sick, but might have a go at a hotlap..........

Edit, so a Cadillac Limo is 16th on the leaderboards, ridiculous game.

 

[Lima]

Told you man. It's scary how competitive the Limo is. American automotive engineering.

 

[zorbsie]

Today is race day everyone.
3:00pm Eastern, book off an hour.

Also standings have been updated with latest times. If you have a lap time, send it in before the race to have it count.

 

[GHG]

Is it ok if I change my car from the 1st race but then stick with it for the rest of the competition?

It's not like I was competative in the 1st race anyway considering the lag I was experiencing .

In fairness, I think anyone scoring outside the points should have the opportunity to change their car, but once you change it this once you have to stick with it.

Sounds good to me. I was going to change my car too. But I'm sticking with the Lancer. I'm going down with the ship!

 

[Noobcraft]

1:41:783 is my best lap lol. I'm doomed

 

[TylerDurden4321]

I'd even say change it as often as you like, just as soon as you drive into the leaderboard-points you have to stick with it. But what about hot-lapping cars and points... ??? You have scored there in another car, right?
On the other hand, if changing the car's tune entirely between races is allowed anyway... that also can change your car from one race into an entirely different performing car if your base-car was low enough on the performance index before tuning it to C-class. Kinda not sure what to think here.

If you have a lap time, send it in before the race to have it count.

My time was 1:40.133. Do I need a screenshot?

Updaded.

To be clear. The car you use in the race is the the car you use setting your hot lap. You can't pick a car for hot laps and a different car for race day. The point of the series is to take the same car and tune it for different tracks for four weeks. In the future we will have more defined restrictions. I want to move away from just picking a leaderboard car.

I'm sure you could have done a faster lap in Driveclub.

Brb, I need to add more racing stripes to my car.
