Trial Runs
I have a few ideas of races to do but haven't seen much action on the 360. I also get caught up will playing with the girlfriend that I miss certain races. Would love to get back to racing with you guys.I'll try to get some specs and some ideas posted on here when I can.
Good to see you back bud been a while :)
Welcome back Tony, it has been a long time.
TACOS!!!
I was thinking of starting a series that will a be 4 to 5 races, each week with one of the races being a wild card i.e. drifting, tag, drag etc. that way it will make a person be on there toes and having to anticipate a wild race that will shock the senses. What do you guys think?
Could be fun, maybe a dedicated Drag series, would like to get the old beast out again
Sounds enticing...
You know I'm down for whatever, especially with winter coming up...
As long as tacos are involved...
When and Where? Im in the mood for Gordito's
I will be running a test of my series on Forza 5 tomorrow if anyone is interested. 4 races plus one wild card race.
Darn, I just saw this out I would have gotten on line tonight and joined in.
I didn't see this!
TONY, you gotta advertise buddy, or send out a message.
Don't worry guys. I didn't get to run it last night since to some technical difficulties.
I am sorry, I missed this too. I am open for weekday racing.
I will be starting a test run if this series in wednesday. Five races. About ten laps each of the four races, then the wild card. I will post the tracks on Monday.
I'm up for Wednesdays. What time Tony?
Don't know what time to start it. Would like to see what is a good time for everyone? Plus it will be on the 360 only.
11:30pm CST is always good for me. Unfortunately the rest of the racing community likes those normal hours.
Wednesday is good for me.
I'm good for wed. 9pm too.
Seem like it would be at 9 if anyone doesn't have any problems with that?
Here is what we will be racing at.
Mugello Full
Bernese Alps
Wild card
Camino Extreme
Maple Valley Full Reverse
The first two races will be raced in B class and the other two in E class. Hope you guys are ready for the madness.
OK so I don't think I'll make this first Wed.
A friend of mine is in town and we're gonna chill that night. I might make it, but we'll see...
Good turn out today but it was only the beginning. So here are the next week class cars.
Race 1 & 2 - R1
Wild card - R2
Race 3 & 4 - C
Please make sure to submit your car for next week race. Remember that once you pick it. You can't pick it anymore for any race.
Good racing
12:30am EST? 2nd shifter? I remember those hours, rough times. I'd come home and play until dawn.
That is why I always enjoyed the TT. Or the pen & paper type of races. Same race parameters and then you'd submit your time. Gave me the feel of at least competing with others in the club. Also, I tend to drive better when I'm not in a room full of my friends. I have too much fun joking etc., and then sneaks like "insanerc" who loves the advantage usually smokes me.
See, that's why i think I'm underestimated. I do ok on the track and the whole time I'm concentrating more on the fun and joking.
I'd be dangerous if I ever got serious.
BTW, read through this, it might appeal to you.

I was thinking about starting something on Thursday like ABC's Thursday. Join a public lobby and try to get more players to join 2O4F. Any thoughts on that?
Due to the overwhelming interest(or lack of it) I will not continue this anymore.
I'd be interested if it were on FM5 Tony.
