Your R33 might have dodgy handling if it has Bridgestone, Falken and BFGoodrich tyres on fyi

e: I'm a little upset that some of the cars aren't available to drive but are in the game as traffic such as the compract E36 and the Transit Diesel.

This is gorgeous.

I'd like to say I'm excited about the upcoming DLC, except I can't for the life of me race anything offroad in this game. I generally race the AI at Unbeatable with no assists (except braking), but when I do anything offroad I have to bring it down two levels, and even then it's not a given I"ll win. I'm guessing snowy areas will be just as bad :(

Its the the V-2 from a Harley and the transmission from a Miata. I'd love to have one but i am sure they cost more than they are worth.

Oh, it has one stock as well? I meant it can take the l4 motorcycle engine.

The cost of a morgan is most likely due to the fact it uses all old practices for building such as bonded wooden frames and the like.

Man the GTR R32 is so much quicker than the GTR R33. It's got 150 more horsepower and 500 lbs lighter with MORE grip for the same PI. I'm at the top of the club rival boards with every B, A, and S1 Class track I take it to, as well as C with the '71 GTR.

Of course it helps that after every loving Gran Turismo game, alll the Forza's, plus other racing sims... I finally figured out how to tune a diff.

I tried to auction buy the #1 Nismo race car but it kept saying "failed to download required marketplace data" is it because I don't have the All-Star car pack?

If you don't own that content pack, then you can't buy those cars off the marketplace either. Same for any car pack.

Picked up an M12 Warthog off the AH the other night, was surprised to see so many at a sane price (450k or so buyout). Pity you can't really upgrade it, but it's very fun to arse around someones farm like a oval office for a while.

Also, now that I've fixed my wheel to be 1:1 linearity at 540deg, offroading in that ariel thing is terrifying. Constantly having to opposite lock whilst having the throttle welded to the firewall is hilarious fun.

The tag's GRRC if I'm remembering correctly. I haven't played for a week or so but plan on doing so more in the near future. Also, I taught myself to drift (poorly :( ) in an El Camino last time I played. I'm still a total scrub when it comes to manual gearboxes but I'm trying to get better.

I may be talking poo poo seeing as the videos above me have GRC but I could have sworn I was in GRRC with a bunch of other goons.

When Atmus was rushing along with us to establish GRC as the club in FH3, he found it was already taken; so we (the goon club in FH3) are GRRC.

GRC is the goon club for FM6.

There is also an XBox Live club for racing goons called GRC. They're all very easy to join.

I don't know if the driving physics are the same but I wish they combined the two so we could drive to the FM6 tracks. Also it's about time some one made Deals Gap in an open world driving game.

That kind of answers my question inadvertantly, though I should have asked the question more eloquently.


edit: Actually bothering to google-fu it, from what I'm reading, yeah the FM games are more "professional motorsport career" like Project Cars, Dirt, GRID, etc.

Pretty much anyone can join. We're cool with it.

If anyone acts egregiously out of line, just message one of the leaders. It's a Goon club so pretty much anything goes.

Also, feel free to request invites to the GRC Xbox club, one of us will add you to the group.

I'm a little surprised myself that I often end up on the top of the goon club leaderboards. I don't try to pick the perfect car for every track and tune every car to the limit, or try to do perfect laps where I memorise every braking point for every single corner. I just try to go fast. I would love if others just tried to go fast too and tried to fight me.

Please fight me.

I've got two cars up on the auction house, a redone KTDA and the pink version of that car. They have my A800 tune on them. Looking for reference photos was really annoying because there's a lot of lovely radio controlled cars / model cars with a bad attempt and the livery.
