Still feeling out cars but did anyone else last night think or feel the subi was slower then the other cars?? On the flip side I felt the toyota was a frickin rocket!!
I think the Scooby is actually one of the fastest cars for the tracks picked overall. The Mazda is quite quick also and is rwd so it will be popular too. The Toyota is good overall and runs good times over all the tracks. And imo it just goes downhill from there. For me the Mazda is quite fun to run although it can be irritating to the ear, it really is a blast to throw around, not sure if I want to choose the obvious like the 22b or the fc. Want to see how many want to run the Toyota or other cars maybe to help boost that manufacturers presence in the series.
In series where you have different choices of cars there always are the best to worst cars offered, Of course you shake them all down to choose the one best for you to win in right? Unless you want to be a little different, to challenge yourself to pick a not the obvious best choice car, but a car you know you probably won't win em all in but one that could still give you a chance to get podium finishes at least. I think about this when choosing cars to run in the series I have participated in and still have alot of fun winning or not.

This has been my thinking, I like to challenge myself by running the one or two cars that may not be the best or fastest.
While I love the noises the Supra makes I think I will be running the Fairlady. If anyone has a sweet livery that I could add my RSR logo to, that would be much appreciated. Otherwise I will have to run my crappy graphic from the Supra.
im running the subie because id probably create some extra weight penalty/handicap in the supra its nearly 1.5 seconds faster everywhere except maple valley.
Have a great race tonight all. I can't make it as it is my 25th wedding anniversary today. I've learned a lot over the last 25 years, and at the top of the list is NOT trying to get in some XBox time on an anniversary day (and I have tried before). That attempt only leads to pain and suffering
Luckily its not my anniversary today however i am on a late shift and it looks like i'm not getting out till late. If i can make it, i will be cutting it close with no practise time. may see you on track :)
well I am screwed apparently I now have a private IP address which is causing the NAT issue, I have to call ATT to see if I can get a public IP or I am fed, I have tried everything from restarting my 2wire gateway 3 times, restarting xbox, redoing the port forwarding, I never had issues until after Sunday when we lost connection and I restarted the gateway and then today when I tried joining the race blame network issues can not join I can't even join a public server on forza but earlier today I was able to join a firends private room and last night I even played COD and minecraft so I don't really know wtf is going on I am just really aggrivated and was looking forward to racing.
Thanks for putting up with me last night guys. You all are AMAZINGLY fast in these cars. Sorry for the rage and load "FUCK". I was so mad at myself spinning in one of my best corners and I was so far behind I figured, what was the point. Still scored last. I did however learn a ton watching Max and Grim during practice. You helped me on several turns.
I will send all 5 builds Gunny
The 5 cars are also in the euro garage
Got um Max, saved me a ton of time....thank you sir. Ill be the orange car on track tonight. Will prob drive them all but Im leaning to my scoobi!
Stuck at work. Max can you host?
Wait...... you work?

Race day!!
18 laps of Suzuka

See y'all next week.
I know what you mean mate, I know my missus still has earrings from last hear when I was racing on her birthday lol
Luckily its not my anniversary today however i am on a late shift and it looks like i'm not getting out till late. If i can make it, i will be cutting it close with no practise time. may see you on track :)
Rule change:
If there are 7 or less drivers in a race finishing 5th or lower you will lose 5%.
