Hi Guys.

 

I'm new, I'm from Australia and I'm a motorsport nut.

Just got back from the Philip Island Moto GP round and looking forward to watching the F1 in Texas on the weekend. 

I'm 35, Married to a wonderful lady.  We've got 2 great kids, and i've taught them how to love motorsport also. (can't wait to get them into karting)

I'm usually able to race on Forza after about 7:30 when the kids are in bed, and i'm looking forward to participating in some organised events. Don't give a bugger if I come first or last but I'll drive as hard as I can.

How do I find races to participate in?

 

Matt

Welcome Matt

 

You can race in any event we are currently running or starting to run and they can be found at the top of our (2Old4Forza) Forum in the Racing Events & Series Information sub forum.

 

Just read the opening post and you should be good to go yes

Hello everyone!

I've just signed up and thought I'd better post a little introduction.

 

My names Vinny, 39 years old and live just to the West of Edinburgh, Scotland. I'm happily married with a 2 year old girl and although I'm an Auto Electrician to trade I've worked with Coca-Cola as a Field Service Engineer for the last 10 years. I enjoy all types of motorsports but the BTCC is probably my favourite followed by F1 and WRC.

 

Forza 4 (and the rest of the series) is my racing game of choice although I do enjoy many other titles on the xBox/PC/PS3 and even the PS2 occasionally. I like to race cleanly with no deliberate contact and usually play on expert settings as I have the benifit of a Fanatec GT2/Clubsport Pedals and a Playseat Evolution. I'm not a tuner or artist (yet) and tend to either use other peoples setups or make very minor adjustments of my own from the default setup, but I may get a little more involved in these if time allows. I've never really raced FM4 online and I'm currently making my way through the events calander with about 50% completed so far.

I have raced online before with other titles, from LFS to Forza Horizon but I'm really looking forward to getting started online racing with some of you in FM4 smiley

 

My XBL tag is MapoUK.

WElcome R6R. I'll get you a club invite sent out inhorizon this evening.

 

@ church, perhaps we should consider opening a nother Euro division. Or else remove some inactive tags from the existing club. We can always add them back when they return.

Who said it would be an accident?  whatever you decide to do Gizzie I'm with you 100%

(Why do I get the feeling I'm about to be kicked from the Euro club)

Hello everyone, my name is Greg and I'm from Ontario Canada. I just picked up forza horizon a couple of days ago and I found this site while looking for a car club to join. I haven't played a racing game since forza 2 so I'm still a little wild out there on the roads at times. I'm looking to steadily improve and make some friends to race with. I'm 31 years old, married with a 6 year old daughter. Gamertag is: GROOVEBOX GREG I look forward to seeing you on the road G

Hi All

 

Jason here from Vancouver, Canada. I'm 37, married with 2 kids. Big Forza fan, I'm a pretty average player probably won't find me at the top of any leaderboards, but I still have a ton of fun playing. Found this site and the Forza club while playing Horizon and thought it looked like a great place to join.

 

My Gamertag is: JMan041

 

Hope to see you guys online!

 

Cheers.

Hello everyone,

 

My name is Liam and i live in Amsterdam (Holland). I'm 28 years old, have my own place in the centre of Amsterdam and work in advertising. 

Speed has always been my thing., athletics, cycling, skating and ofcourse doing a lap as quick as possible is what keeps me going.

Forza4 is the first of the series i've been playing and i'm enjoying it very much ! 

204F you guys did a great job setting up this league, and starting of I would like to join the 'Inter' class.

I noticed that the next OPEN qualification will be running on the 25th, i'll be there ;)

 

Looking forward seeing you guys on the track !

Welcome Mob!

We have a few members from Holland, Shark67TT and GTV Zeratul are frequent racers here.

I think the inter class is full at the moment, only a few spaces left in the Super class, however, if we ask nicely we may be able to get some people to switch classes. 

Check out this thread for further information http://www.2old2play.com/forum/divisions/2old4forza/british-procar-qualification-sunday-2100-499656

Hope to see you on the track :)

Greetings & salutations John. Shoot a message to Gizziegod or ChurchPro on xbl telling them "Cotter says to send me a fucking euro club invite" . & I'm sure theyll get you on sent out right away.

 

Seriiously though, shoot them a message & they can hook you up. I'll send you a Fr from our clan gamertag. Then you can view it's friends list to find others to play with until you've made some fiends on your own list. Since you mentioned that you're still fairly new to forze, I'll also mention that we do offer instructional services to those who would like it.
