Forza 3 Game Night. Bring it, part deux!

[ivan2]

Does ford GT include GT40? been itching for one.

it doesn't feel slower but lap time is slower, mugello i was getting 1:50 at FM2 but i had never passed 1:54 in FM3, though i can if i try really hard with the Murcielago. RA was 1:22 for many of us and 1:20 for waldo but it is a good 1:24 in here. Maple is about 1:31 on an average day, a good 2 seconds slower.

btw ty, if you will, change the 1 deg toe out of the rear wheel to neutral or 1 deg toe in, and then change the decel diff to 50 will help to keep the car in the line.

Is that the tune you sent me last night?

 

[Hopeless]

Ran a few more races in career last night after bumping it up to medium. Ended up buying a cheap bmw for the C series and spent a little $ to lighten it up. That was the first time I really looked in the upgrade menus. They really split a lot of things up compared to FM2.

last night's better, i reduced drag.

 

[Kabob]

Cool, I'll give it a whirl.

Hey famous, is that you who sent me a facebook request? Just got an invite from Ivan Lee and you're the only "Ivan" I can think of.

[Kabob]

Deceiving username 'eh?

 

[ivan2]

just a random one that seems furthest from reality.

You guys should be voting in the Jalopnik polls. They're halfway through the first round but it's not too late to get in on it.

Today & tomorrow are still round 1, & then on to the finalists.

Final 15 are going in a Jalopnik Forza car pack.

Viper GTS

 

[Kabob]

Voted already...90% of the cars are crap IMHO and I get the feeling very few people are going to buy the pack.

 

[AstroManLuca]

I voted for about 4-6 of the cars in each of the rounds where voting is still open. None really interest me though and I doubt I'll buy any of the FM3 car packs. I haven't bought any yet and the Jalopnik one will be even worse than the currently available ones.

 

[ivan2]

there aren't many cool cars left and i dont think they can find a right class for the lotus 7.

it's gonna be a rocket car pack LOL

wait, group 6 has some pretty good cars.

 

[ivan2]

send me a message if u want to have unfair advantage tomorrow night.

 

[Hopeless]

Did some more career races last night. Ended up buying the C class amg benz when a speedway series opened up.

After that one a new type of race opened up & I picked it because the prize was the best of the three choices. I can't remember the name but it's C class & each race is point to point that you run 3 times in a row against a different comp car. The track sections are narrow & curvy as crap. It's been a close call a few times, the benz has the highest acc rating of my C class cars but it takes it a little time to really get going.

 

[Kabob]

I think I'll be able to make it tonight, not 100% positive though. Supposed to meet someone and trade a few 360 games off and I'm sure the wife will want to work out.

 

[Hopeless]

I should be able to make it but I'll be a bit late. Also I've been caught up in running the career, so I have to ask if anyone has an extra car I can borrow again this week.

 

[Kabob]

Apparently famous has a car that will give you an unfair advantage

Or if you'd like I'll happily donate a car, I'd have to make one though.

 

[ivan2]

i am gonna have to buy another car, ty, why don't you give him your extra GT and i will send an AWD tune over that will give him instant advantage.

 

[Cienja]

I'd like to race. Not sure if I can make it every Wednesday though. Add me please: jbcal

Thanks

Sounds good, I'll do it.

Thanks guys.

I'm still stuck at work & will be leaving shortly, but I do have a question. I know about car gifting, but tune gifting is still new to me. After getting the car how do you go about getting & appling a gifted tune?

 

[ivan2]

go to your upgrade section where u see engine upgrade, etc, look at the bottom of your screen see how you can load up a tune, it will ask you to pay for the parts you need and then u have ur car

 

[Abel007]

The car:

2006 Lotus Exige Cup 240 - B500

The rules:

No engine swap
Horsepower limit of 270hp (which is a lot believe it or not!)

The rest is up to you!
