Seems like we all had our little duels...
edit: I watched some more... my duel was BORING compared to others... the Jello, Frontier and Crude for example looks pretty insane. Still haven't seen who kissed the tyre wall after the corkscrew.

Haha. That was GHG? Looks like his car. Dude is so dirty lol.

if that happens... I mean... No, that's.... ...you hyped me there! ...95% that it's not that.
Could have been the other Civic, FrontierUk, there are 2 of those.
yes, it's GHG

There were a lot of good scenes, but they are laid out over the length of the whole race, you have to go looking for them.
I wish I had something like a live stream from all fixed trackside cameras playing simultaniously on like 6 monitors to pick and edit together from. Then I want the Noobcraft and P3tran TV commentator duo talking over that!
This would get me to come back to the game immediately. I hope T10 is listening.
It was me! D:

Jello taking out Noob two weeks in a row. This is like Cole Trickle vs Rowdy Burns.

I know it's the 30th anniversary of Back to the Future, but if they put the DeLorean in before the Agera R, I'll send Turn 10 a pic of my resting bitchface and bitch about it until they add it in.

Do you know I just watched back the replay and even though I spent most the race staring at crudes tailpipes I didn't notice the advertising on the back lol
Crude, jello and myself into the corkscrew
Just shared it, look for me or search lagunagaf
Sorry I was so rushed yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came out. Standings have been updated. I finally have points! Took four weeks and a small turn out, but it happened. The gap between the top 3 is decreasing every week. Might not have to send a trophy to Greece this year. 
Hope I didn't miss anyone's time, if so just let me know and I'll add you in.
Next week: New cars, New time, same madness. Details later today.

The best part about this is you can see me about to pass and then I just coast off into the sand. lol

I rewatched it several times to make sure I didn't actually shunt you, I guess you just carried to much speed?
Yeah, looks like I was trying to go hard for the overtake and forgot to brake,
GAF League Series 2: Historic American Muscle

Pick one car and tune it, you will have to be in the same car for all races in the series and use the same car for all time trials in the series. You can use different tunes for each race, but the car has to be the same.
To help pick your car here is a list of tracks we will be racing on during Series 2.
Bernes Alps - Stadsplatz Circuit
Sebring - Full Circuit
Road America - Full Circuit (No Communist Corner!)
Watkins Glen - Full Circuit
Race day schedule: 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. Collisions will be always on, make sure to turn off sim damage on your end.
As always the lobby will be up at 3:00pm Eastern, but this series will happen on Sunday. 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 Sunday? Join in the fun by doing this weeks time trial. Post your best time on this weeks track before the race on Sunday to be included. Points will be given on time trials as well as the actual race.
Sunday race will be Bernes Alps - Stadsplatz Circuit
Don't forget that the car you use in time trial is the car you use on race day.
Who can join?
Anyone on GAF is more than welcome to join. Just picked up FM6? leave me your GT and I'll send you an invite on race day. Simple as that.
Looking forward to see what cars people pick. I don't have the car pass and I'm not sure if any of the DLC packs have cars that fit in to this category. So if I missed anything, just let me know.
Questions/Suggestions? I'm all ears.

Awesome. That Watkins Glen race is going to be glorious.
So apparently November 3rd will be the DLC day and there's a big surprise after that.
Maybe a new free track?

I got a mustang and a Shelby today as gifts
Those are the Halo 5 cars. One of them is VIP only.

Maybe the Corvettes should be removed?
I know Forza lumps them in with the muscle cars, but they're not actually.

Funny thing, I was thinking the same thing when I was making the list. What does everyone think?

I know Crude will agree with us at least because I heard him making this same point to p3tran.
These Halo liveries are great.

Sorry to sound like an asshole, but if you give me a classic american muscle car, I'll just pick the one with the most sopisticated suspension, make it silly low and hard, put on ultra low profile tyres and high camber, modern front spoiler and rear wing, lowest weight possible and only engine upgrades that make the thing rev faster, because that's what makes it competetive on tracks that aren't ovals more or less or have mile-long drag strips as straights. At that point my car wouldn't have much in common with an american muscle car.
My suggestion is to have a very high "minimum power" requirement or don't allow upgrades to suspension, roll cage, weight, anti-roll bars, maybe even forbid higher diameter rims. That way we'd at least all drive cars that actually feel and handle like american muscle cars.

The Muscle series in North America that I'm aware of (like CAM-T) don't have that many restrictions outside of wheelbase, weight (~3,000 lbs), door/seat count and being officially street legal.
There are no restrictions on brakes, suspension, engine and so forth.
I kind of like this because it really gets at the spirit of Muscle rather than restricting the builds to the characteristics/limitations of American family cars in the late 60, early 70s.
