I had a bang in the GT-R. I beat your time, gimp, but only by about a tenth of a second.

I found it quite hard to drive, to be honest. Without traction control, it was sliding like mad, which might be down to the torque split, I'm not sure. Without ABS, I kept locking up, but on the flipside I hate driving with ABS, so if it were me I'd drop the braking pressure.

I assume it's already got pretty much entirely race spec parts in there? What width are the tires? What compound?

You should be able to check and adjust the settings as I have gifted it. :confused:

If not I will post the details once I get chance.

I didn't receive a gift, just a note that it was shared :confused:

It wouldn't be the first bit of silliness on the turn 10 servers, mind! I'll check later.

In that case you should see it in your message centre in the game. :-)

I did also upload it to the Club Garage too.

Ah, got it now, I've softened the brakes and that's made that side of things a bit better for me!

Which GT-R is this? the only one i spotted in the club garage was r3 786. I had a quick go in this and did a 57.225. Not all that keen on AWD cars but apart from the brake pressure being a bit low for my liking everything else seemed fine.

Yeah that's the one. I put the brake pressure down as I prefer it that way due to the way I drive. Guess I forgot to put it back to normal before I put it in the Club Garage. I will alter it to 100% and re-upload it.

I have been messing around with the livery editor today and have come up with a pretty good Swan filter tips design. I will take a picture and up it on here later.

RoryMK and JimIsLost have had some very good times posted on the rivals leaderboards. Been good fun chasing after them.

soo the monthly drift any one beat me yet? haven't had my xbox on for a few days

maybe.. took my z8 lobby tune out for a 'spin'. Good to know that a car built for track racing can go sideways so well :rolleyes:

3 pictures of my new Swan Livery. Sort of work in progress although not sure what else to add to it.

Then i've got reason to go back to it. Took an ae86 out of the club garage to use and put a few more points on my score.

A 690Bhp E92 M3 with traction control and ABS off is not a fun experience.

Good guide here on Tuning in Forza 4. Bit of a read but its pretty good at explaining it all. Wish I had some ink. I cant print it off

Doesn't sound that scary.
I might have to put my Tuscan on the club share. Speed 12 engine convert

800bhp, 1200kg, no aero, sports tyres, S700 class.
Epic fun

Drive it smooth and it is properly quick and rewarding, yet it can be an absolute hooligan-mobile when required

Now that's given me an idea

Need to get my TVR affinity up first though
