Hey everybody!!
Hey everybody!!
Hows things shaking??....Found yall on FM.net and was thinking about joining a club......
Im a 44 year old geek that plays video games instead of watching tv in my spare time.....Im a big gear head...Raised as a mechanics son and love have grease under my finger nails. Always been a Forza fan and about 6 months agao joined my first club. But I was seeing what else is out there. I have a couple of questions..
Do yall have orginized races weekly?? If so what are they??
Before these races are there qualifiying?
Whey you race on average how many are in a race??
Sorry if I come to you questioning your club but I just want to see whay yall have to offer before I jump ship. I like the club Im in but they are falling off a little bit.........In the mean time Ill look aroiud in here to see what I can figure out....Peace
Glad you found us. Cotter will probably be along shortly and shoot you an invite to 2old4forza. There are actually series running damn near every night of the week. Lots of different series, some spec, some handicapped, some offline for those that don't have schedules that align. Several members run drop in - pick up races with multiclass lobbies just for kicks too.
Field counts for the organized series are typically in the 8-12 range....sometimes more, occasionally less.
Welcome to the madness..gif "55")
Welcome aboard bro. I'm adding you to 2Old4Forza. You'll find all the info you're looking for & more in our forums. Click here to visit our forum & say hello.
I'll send you a Fr from our active members gamertag as well. You can view that tag's friends in order to find other members until you've made a few friends.
We're a rather large club, so we have several regioanl divisions in game. Where are you located? I want to make sure you get added to the correct club if possible.
Looks like your friends list is full bro. Let me know when you've got some room & I'll send a Fr from our active members gamertag as well as from myself.
Welcome fella. If you need anything just ask.gif "1")
Thanx for the welcome. Cleaned up my Friends list so fire away.....Im located in Florida (Central Time).But I work crazy hours...Usualy open to race on weekends. Been kinda busy this week....Ill check out the schedules when I can...Thanx again
Definetely make sure you hit up the Active2O4F tag. J does a bang up job keeping the more active guys attached to that tag so you've got a good chance to pick up a pick up race (watch out for Jones' Dodge) at all kinds of hours.
+1 on that.
Also just search for the 2Olf4Forza Euro for all us Euro guys
What is the "Active204F" tag??...Where do I find it??
Oh, and I just noticed you're on PSN too. If you have GT5, take a look in the Race Series subforum for the Thursday GT5 event. We usually have about 8-9 guys that show up. We run spec cars that are posted on a spreadsheet usually a week before hand to you can build and practice if you choose.
Glad I found you guys on forza.net Be nice to race with the adults. I am 45 and live in the NW. I am a wheel racer wnd have a nice comy cockpit set up for those long races. Cheers.
opps posted in wrong spot sorry....Ill try again
Its and XBL profile.
If you search for Active204F and send an FR or view the profiles friends it will come up with a lot of active 2O4F players
I tried sending "active2o4f" a freind request but it tells me the Gamertag doesn't exist. I have typed it several different ways but no luck
Active 2O4F
Just looked, there should be a space between the 2.
I'vve sent you a FR from both my tag & the active 2O4F tag Katpeeler.
I also hit you up too Zoomer.
Got them....thanx......
Welcome! - be sure to check out the new spec series's that are up and comming. There is also a racing league that happens on Sunday nights (gmt)
Don't be shy and get stuck in :)
Ok Ill check them out.....Quick question.....I see on the "active 204f" gamertag that I can see activity of players but how do I join a race that they are in??...When I looked there were a couple guys in public lobbies but didnt have the option to join...Was there game full or set to private??...I know seems like a stupid question but Ive never used a buddyes friends list to join in a game
Never a silly question.
If when you view the GT and there isn't an option to join then it usually means that the lobby is FULL or it is indeed set to private. (The later is very rarely used)
You could always send a msg asking for an invite - People won't take offence to that here and invite you as soon as a spot opens up. When you are more familiar, open up rooms yourself and send out invites to anyone :)
If it is a series race then it will not be open, these run over several weeks with point scored and specific cars. They can often be joined late into the season but the right car, tune and a club race number are kinda required. Easy to get, just post to the relavent thread in the races and series sub forum and you will be sorted. You will find the first post in any series thread will give you all the information. There are pick up nights, Track Night for the euro crowd and I think there is one for the US side. Its all a bit overwheming at the start, but ask any question and we will point you in the right direction. You'll soon get the hang of it
Kat, the list on the active tag will tell you if someone on it is playing forza. If you want to see if they're actually in a lobby, then you'll have to actually look at their tag. . What I usually do is this...I'll start up a room of my own & invite everyone I see playing forza. If they've already got a room going, usually they will send one back to you in turn. Then you can just join in on the existing lobby. It will all get much easier once you make some friends on your own list, so don't be stingy with the FR's.
There is some thing about the like button that says click me..
It's a new toy. Must perform durability testing.....see when she'll break..gif "55")
Ok thanx guys....Ill check around....
