I think they got a little carried away with the red-hot brakes. It's a cool effect but it appears to be overused in that clip.

I was actually thinking the exact same thing. I was like "Wtf, glowing brakes?"

That definitely occurs...but they definitely went overboard in how visible they are in a normal race.

Definitely went overboard on how often they made it occur. Looks like they need to improve on the AA too.

They did that in GT3 & 4 too, whilst its a nice effect i agree, i'm not quite sure whether the brake discs would glow BRIGHT red after a second or two of hard braking :p


Edit: Infact, after seeing the forze video.. Its not even 1 - 2 seconds! its more like .5 of a second, things like this really take away the experience from me... I'm picky like that!

They wouldn't. :p Even at the end of the last Le Mans race I went to, brakes weren't glowing too much.

I've always wanted to go to LeMans! Sounds like a really good time, did u camp up there and everything? You flew all the way from the US to see it? One thing i've wondered also is do you have to pay to get access to the track? If so, how much?

Oh, I should have clarified.. I want to an American Le mans race at Laguna Seca. I think tickets were $45? And included pit access and walking on the track when they line up. I think a parade lap on the course was another $20 or something. But it's fun. I've gone to quite a few now.

The brakes glow, but It'd be pretty hard to see them during the day.

They look cool at night. I wonder if this forza will have night races.

I thought it was actually pretty boring. I wanted to see more views from inside the car (first person?), like more of the views you will actually use in the game, instead of the sweeping views that just kinda show off the graphics.
