I miss the days of Forza 1 in which pubbie races were full of swastika Porsches and veiny throbbing boner Aston Martins ramming you from behind.

I don't support the Nazi party but I certainly support the absurdity of poor taste murals on cars.

I'm just trying to figure out how you get an Elise chassis to behave that poorly.

I guess lengthen it, throw a bunch of weight in the rear, along with a motor that's two sizes too large and that'll just about do it.

I wonder if I can just build a 1000 hp Elise in game. It would surely run rings around this piece of poo poo.

I thought it was an Exige chassis, interesting. Yeah, let's do a massively overbuilt Elise and see if it's any better. Goon race! Overbuilt Elises vs Venoms!

EDIT: 723hp. That was with swapping out the engine for an Evora and turbocharging it. Still insane.

I've been saying this for a while now. What complaints I have are pretty minor. This is what I wish Gran Turismo 5 was.

I'm already getting excited for Forza 5 next year too, and there's not a lot I can think of that I really want the series to have, other than to keep the tracks it has now, and add another 5 - 7 new tracks.

How many hours you got logged with Forza?

I've been playing it as long as it's had FF available, and it feels totally fine to me.. I always know right about how much the tires can take before I lose them.

But on the other hand it also means I'm super familiar with their driving model, so perhaps I'm just in tune with their simulation.

That's not what gaslighting means you hyperbolic dipshit.
The one complaint I have about this game is that the instrument cluster HUD element is pretty bad. If Forza had Shift 2's "every car has it's own unstrument cluster as the on-screen HUD" then the game would be pretty much perfect.

Well, it would need that and Spa.

It was on sale a couple months ago, so it's always possible it'll happen again soon. There's really no way to know.

In the latest ones you select the car and it fills in some data that's now not editable like max/min aero, engine position, and i'm sure there's some other poo poo.

I think the guy that makes them said he was going to stop updating the calculator after the season pass is expired and that's pretty much now.

You can still tune the new DLC cars, just choose a car that is similar and then tune on top of that and adjust as need be. I used the Impreza 22b ride frequency to tune the Legacy RS and it worked just fine.

Yeah well that would work seeing as the suby suspensions have been pretty much interchangeable up until the newer shape imprezas.

I used the audi q7 to try and tune the transit but that didnt come out too well tho.
