Hoopy Frood posted:Nice authentic choice of wheels, can you remember what they are? They look very much like EMPI 8 spokes which are popular on tuned Beetles. I downloaded the Beetle hoping they included EMPI as a wheel manufacturer for them, but they don't appear. Thanks, Compomotive ML

There is actually quite alot of wheels I like in the game. Unfortunately, there's a few too many  wheels for my liking.Also, some center locking wheels would have owned like the BBS Center lock wheels you see on alot of the GT cars in the game. Also, how about some BBS GT's? You can't tell me that the 993 GT2 wouldn't look awesome with a set of gold BBS wheels.

can anyone recall any videogames that had mid-ohio as a track ? I was watching some racing yesterday at that track on Speed, and I don't know that track all that well, but I clearly remember that sweeping right curve with the crest in the middle that looks like it would put every car into the grass. It was in some game. Viper Racing maybe ?

FYI to anyone who still doesn't have FM4, it's on sale direct from MS again for $30. http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/pd/Forza-Motorsport-4-for-Xbox-360/productID.231075100/categoryID.58732600/list.true There's still a bunch of DLC to buy if you want everything, but half-off on the game is a good start.

Is there any advantage to spending the $$ for the VIP upgrade? As far as I can tell, it just unlocks a few different versions of cars that are already in the game, and gives you access to the VIP rivals thing every month.

You get a crown thing, and every once in a while, Turn 10 sends you a free car. They used to do it a lot, not so much anymore.

I had the worst run of all time before, on the Catalunya Big Bopper rivals event. The AI cars were somehow precisely placed so they were two-wide on almost every corner for about 8 laps. Once that was done, I managed to beat whatcubed3's time, which in turn he had beaten my last best time with. I'm still two seconds short of the lead time, though, and I genuinely don't think I can find two seconds.

Probably the MKS, if we're lucky, the MKR concept. Though it would be interesting to get a 60s continental, or a MKVIII or something. Comedy option, MKX.

On a serious note, I want an L or K series Lincoln.

Did you notice the AI gives you a nice straight path through on a dirty lap, but on a clean lap they bunch up at the worst possible places? I think I can maybe find another .5 of a second if I absolutely have to, but I really don't want to.

I hate you. Time to retire the MB SLR300 and change to this Porsche everyone is using, I guess. EDIT: I'm consistently running 1:29.1s. If I can just get a relatively clear run, I can probably beat your time. Honestly, the loving AI drivers are maddening - they take no logical sort of line at all, some run wide, some run close, and they drift all over the loving track with no warning and no caring for their surroundings.

I'm rooting for you! I probably have anywhere from .5 to a full second that I can still find, that was only my third lap with the car. I know I can brake much deeper into most of the corners and take the chicane a bit quicker, but it's difficult to push to hard while worrying about the blind AI side-swiping you.

I don't really like the Porsche much, to be honest, it's pretty twitchy whereas my Merc was very forgiving. I had to stop for a while because the AI was making me too goddamned mad. You're fast as hell through the chicane as it is, I know I'm losing time there. Most of the laps I ran I was ahead for almost all of the corners and through sheer bad luck every single car bunched up on the last few corners starting at the hairpin. Drove me absolutely nuts. Then there was the time I smashed every corner and was running a drat quick lap and some rear end in a top hat was bang in the centre of the chicane. Not a goddamn thing I could do.

I randomly joined an ABC'S hopper and the only human opponent in it happened to be fellow AUGR member Joey Aces. I was in C-Class and he was in B-Class. I drove the MG and he was in the Escort 1800. I kept ahead for the first lap and he started to close in on me at the first few turns on lap two. Right as he was catching me, there was a RACING INCIDENT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KY4q5oZ1Rs
