You will need to go to their Facebook page and join their chat applet to get into games. Can I do that without having a facebook account?

Just create a dummy one with fake info or something if you want to participate. But don't count on being able to grab you kick rear end gamertag because someone has already probably sniped it. Why couldn't they just tie it to gametags?

I've just dumped most (if not all) of my forza photos into an album on imgur. 200+ pictures of SAEG races, my cars and a couple of forza 3 and horizon photos. http://imgur.com/a/K3o3y Might as well bump SAEG whilst I'm here. We're still racing if any European/GMT friendly goons wish to race.

I'd love to race with you guys, as racing with people that are faster than me is one of the ways I got massively better when I picked this game up having never played a Forza game before.

When you're tuning a car for the ring, say at S700, generally speaking how much downforce should you run? Seems to me like it's a high downforce track but then again there are some spots where a higher top speed is preferable. Also allowing the car to move a bit seems to help in some cornering. I've got my aero set to about 80% downforce, in a car with Handling 6.5. Thoughts?silverbullitt850 posted:Why you shouldn't bring trucks and vans on Fujimi:

I said come in! posted:That's one of the big appeals of Forza Motorsport is that it has a lot of cars in it, many of them are cars that most people who own the game, actually own in real life. I have a Ram Daytona, and they have the parts to make one out of the SRT-10. It's ridiculous because no one even knows what a Daytona is, they only made 11,000 total, and only like 1100 were two door cabs. Turn 10 really gets it when it comes to catering to car enthusiasts.

Yeah, with the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, you can replace the front bumper with an IV (although the front lights on the IV are different) or V, and the rear wing from the IV. Not quite as extensive as Gran Turismo 4 which had like every Lancer variation (GSR and RS) from I to VIII, but hey.

When you tune a car, how do you make it less "floaty" and more "grounded to the ground"?

Stiffer suspension is the usual approach. Basically you want to reduce how much the body of the car moves when cornering. Just be aware if you overdo it, you'll find you lose control whenever you hit a bump because it means the tires will lose adherence to the pavement, which means they provide less (or no) grip.

That's why the Ring is the Ring. It's intensely technical, except it's littered with curbs that will punish all but the most compliant suspensions, and still demands a lot of horsepower for those long uphill runs / that straightaway.

Epic amounts of downforce and ludicrous acceleration are what powers you through the ring. And don't ever, EVER touch a curb. Slam on the brakes and come to a complete stop before you let yourself touch a curb.

Curbs are fine on the ring, as long as you arent driving a heavy rear end car with high spring rates. You dont need to have overly stiff suspension on light cars. Now forza 3, thats the game where the curbs on the ring launch you to the moon.

I think everyone goes through a "gotta conquer the ring" phase. It's a pretty epic track, but its reputation is a little overblown. Finishing it is more about "oh god please don't let me die" (or in Forza terms, "please don't invalidate my lap") than actual racing. Especially in Forza, where you end up with a string of cars spread over five miles of track and everyone is basically driving solo. Give me a 2 mile circuit with close racing over that, any day.

Turns out if everyone you're racing with actually knows the 'Ring, it's tight racing for 12 miles.

  Count Chocula took longer than Cap'n Crunch but it was surprisingly less than 100 layers. (Cap'n Crunch is 204)

Gutbomb made Captain Crunch for me, Captain Howdy. Because that's the way he rolls. In this case, "CRUNCH" means guitar distortion.    Thanks, Gutbomb! I need to make an Ibanez to put in his hand, though.

Captain Crunch with an Ibanez might be too awesome for one car to handle. I was going to make my bass tattoo into a vinyl group, but I never got around to finishing it. Instead, I just put Jaguars on everything.
