***The Official Forza Motorsport 3 Thread***

Any room in your league? Looks like awesome fun :D

Always room for one more although we have migrated back to MW2 for some reason. I find it some of the best racing I have ever had online, we all know each other really well and any knocks are taken in good spirits. We have been playing together pretty much on a nightly basis since FM2 was released.

Moar action!
 
Sounds like fun :) You guys ever actually finish a race with all of you having not rolled the car? :p

If you're ever back on and up for a race, give me a yell/add (GT: TimBrad) and would love to join you! What class/pi do your Clios work out as?
 
Just a wee video I caught tonight of my 370Z dancing round the final corner on Tsukuba short, camera angles sadly weren't the best but it felt good and looked good at the time, so I thought why not, even nicer that it was ina crowd and no collisions :)


Impressive :)

Done similar things in my A class M3, a pure drift machine :o

I think most of the races go without massive accidents its just they dont make awesome video's :D PI works out as B426, will add you and send you the tune as I cant remember off the top of my head the modifications used.
 
I've not really downloaded any tunes for cars on Forza yet, I tend to just upgrade cars and then drive them and do my best, rather than tuning (as I have no idea how to).

If you download a tune that has upgraded parts do you then get the option to purchase those parts too to get the tune exactly the same?

Does anyone have any tunes that they really like?
 
Well starting playing this at the weekend and i forgot how good it is. Been playing MW2 for the best part of the last two months.

Still need to get used to driving with no driver aids on tho.

Yeah the tune is basically a list of the parts so you have to buy them to use that tuning setup - so even if a tuning setup is cheap on the Storefront it can end up costing you about 100k depending on what class it is etc :p

Here's my new "sleeper", A-class, 0-100mph ~ 7 seconds. Just under 500bhp, naturally aspirated. :D

Love the idea of these upcoming packs I just hope they don't all get fudged on the availability to T10 clause already stated or it ends up being all muscle cars due to the sheer power of NA votes.

Lots of great motors in there I'd love to see the Fiat 130 Coupé at least make it into one of the groups for voting.

1971 De Tomaso Mangusta I used to have an excellent die cast of this and one of my neighbours in the 80's started to build a replica until his wife filed for divorce. It was a sad day watching it being towed away unfinished.

Will have to post a pic of my "sleeper" although the game is usually up when people see a Chevrolet Aveo pop up in S-class. 900+ bhp through the front wheels is insane but good for over 250mph once you get the power down :D
 
Do you need a gold subscription to take part in the time trials?

Yup, the best I have managed is a 1.19.999 which is scarily 3 seconds off the pace. Still within the top 400 though! Quite where the 3 seconds is lost I have no idea as I am not exactly out on a Sunday drive.

Haha, I can't imagine a worse chassis to try and work with, guessing it's pretty damn light though.

Half tempted to push this IS300 into S-class, that engine has so much more to come from it, still have the option to boost it and with the rear-biased AWD setup it can quite easily handle the power too!

Was really tempted to put some of the aftermarket bumpers and stuff on as there's some nice discreet ones for the IS but no! I resisted and kept it totally standard looking, even the wheels are the ugly Lexus ones. :D

Be a man! put it back to RWD!

A sleeper should be in its standard drivetrain ;)
