Most likely, sometimes I just leave my xbox on and am doing something else. sorry. I also have 100 friends on Xbox Live and about 80% of them I know in real life so it's hard to delete people

btw wtf is that blue car in the post above me? For the first time in my life I'm absolutely dumbfounded.... can't even guess manufacturer. Italdesign????

This is pretty shocking.... some of my first words were Honda and Toyota after all, according to my parents. I knew more car names than I did words

I absolutely love that car. It handles like a dream. Plus I got it for free

My friend came over and we did some split screen racing. We did S-class cars and then we did some SUV/Truck races. We both got in SRT-10s and we tried to see who could make theirs roll more

I spend a good hour hot lapping on fujimi in a xk220 (I spend hours tuning it and it's still terrible), and a stock car. It isn't exactly competitive, but quite fun.

It took about 30 minutes to render and upload. Then the wmv format it uses isn't compatible with youtube so then I had to re encode it (to wmv?). Anywho, it makes a capture card seem worth while.

My new car! Like it so much I bought it twice. This one is more powerful than my black one, it's making around 940hp/700tq. Driving it with all assists off but the abs is the right way to go.

^So you don't do the R1 races?

I usually have all of the assists turned off unless I'm driving a R4 or higher car. Those are a pain in the ass to keep the tail from kicking out around every corner.

I love the shot of the LP670-4SV. So sexy. I drove my white one around today for a while. That thing is crazy.

That last picture is the shizzzz. I love the Lancia. What track was that picture taken on?

I've done every R1 race possible. I turn on the traction control and leave the rest off.

I think it's more about weight and tire size. The 800+ hp nascar isn't too dificult to handle, but I have a r2 650 hp audi gtcc car that is a pain in the ass

It really brings out the fun with powerful RWD cars. Since I've gotten the game, I've always played the game without any assits but ABS...it's very hard at first but you eventually get used to it, not to mention the extra credits you get in races.

I'm not really a fan of awd cars, but the 899 hp zr1 I have seems to have plenty of grip in the rear. The main issue I have with it's handling is the lack of front end grip, it under-steers quite a bit at high speed even with a front splitter.

I found if you put on the ricer "Forza Motorsport" lip spoiler and wing, it usually makes the car turn in a lot better. More balanced, even.

oh and on the EB110. I forgot what the back of it looks like. Funny thing is, when I was like 7 my big brother took me to a hobby shop and was talking about how much I knew about cars, and the guy who worked there told me to guess what a certain car was, and if I got it right he'd give me a small scale car for free. He showed me a picture of the EB110 without the name showing, and I said it and he was like wow! How did you know?

Look how much camber is on that damn Lambo, haha

The Lancia pic was on Benchmark in between the crates near the warehouse.

Unfortunately probably not going to happen...I don't see why not though.

How hard could it be when comparing it to creating a FULL CAR inside and out

Don't get me wrong, I love the game and what they have added compared to FM2, but how can they think that they can add new cars almost every month and expect people not to get sick of putting the same wheels on over and over? Only 2 sets of HREs and Volks? Come on now.

A new wheel pack and offset adjustability should be added to the game. The HELLAflush thing is expanding almost exponentially across the country, so why not include that in the game? No not everybody would like that, but have it for an option for those who wish it was in the game.

I'd honestly rather not have new wheels than have that trend cross to Forza.

Let me paint the stock wheels, fer crissake.

Would it be practical for racing? Of course not. But would it bring a new light and a new crowd to Forza that maybe some people never thought about? Possibly.

And I agree 100% with being able to paint the stock wheels.
