addicted i just had a run in the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 how would you say the F40 compares to it handling wise as u can rent the lam ,, but not the F40....

I'll rent the Lambo when I'm home tonight and let you know

I finished all the F40 races, just using it for the S (I think) type class races now as it's so nice to drive.

joedeath332 · 27 Nov 2013 at 15:27

Did you use the F40 to do the "A" class races @700 or did you just upgrade it to "S" class straight away and use it for "S" class racing ,, as for "S" i liked the feel of the Falcon

BTW why in Forza 5 when u get an achievement does it tell you to hold the Xbox button for details,, yet if you press that it just says turn of console ??

Ill have to check - I didn't touch it engine-wise, so maybe it's the A class I'm racing, can't remember to be honest

Press it when message is on the screen. Hate the new achievements like, takes you out the game just to see it.

I remember driving the F-40 and F458 on GT and they were just amazing to drive, felt better than any other car in any game i played.

Cheers. Billy no mates at the moment

Btw Joe, just got back and looking at my F40 - definitely S-rated, I didn't upgrade it though so it may have been an automatic thing when I entered the initial series!

joedeath332 · 27 Nov 2013 at 19:05

Yar it would have just said do you want to upgrade this bla bla bla,, give me more money

EDIT btw if you get a chance addicted can u do a lap of 2 with the ford Falcon and see how it compares to your F40 handling wise please

Words fail me. You'll be telling me they stole the design of the cigarette packs off the racing car next.

Uh, the red and white Marlboro paintjob is McLaren, the Ferrari Marlboro isn't at all the same. Any racing fan knows that.

The McLaren paintjob.

The Ferrari.

MagicBoy · 27 Nov 2013 at 21:41

Any racing fan should know Ferrari the brand is bigger than any sponsor. You won't see a Ferrari F1 car in anything other than Rosso Corsa. Silk Cut could turn up with all the money in the world and they wouldn't paint the car purple.

McLarens corporate colour is orange, and a pack of Marlboro cigarettes is white and red. That design has been used on many cars over the years. Penske indycars and Aussie touring cars pop straight to mind, and they wern't ripping off McLaren, they were using the sponsors colours.

Incidentally totlxtc's livery was inspired by a real racing F40.

If you login on www.forzamotorsport.net with your xbox details and click on rewards at the top, it will break down what you have and what you need to do to move up Tiers.

They went back to Forza 2 for the points, so people that have played everything since then are higher up the Tiers.

joedeath332 · 27 Nov 2013 at 23:59

Ahh thanks ,, just got 20k credits

i am currently Tier 3

spaceman · 28 Nov 2013 at 00:06

No problem, only a few days for thenext lot of rewards

I just managed to 'Shazam' the Forza 5 advert on Motors TV during the v8 Supercars, it just gives info on the game, no in game content codes.
