I use only ABS the rest is off no matter what. I use the clutch too. I am surprised how z06 handles so well in S class.

 

I've noticed the saying of ''slow in, fast out'' is a key to this game. If you go into a corner too fast your car will slide and lose a lot of MPH in the exit, so it's better to enter slowly and get the run out the corner onto the straightaways. As stated previously throttle management is key when coming out of a corner, you can't just floor it at the apex and hold on to it all the way out the corner in most cases.

 

Faaaawk. I had to work overnight last night, just got home and need to sleep so I can do it all over again tonight No FM4 for me today.

What car was it?

Which track?

Im using the controller for now, but will be picking up the Fanatec soon. Not sure if I want the Elite or just the regular one though.



You got me on that damn autocross track that you did in the Subaru. I think Im .5 seconds behind you. Every time Im about to beat you I hit the damn come on the last friggin turn



The only thing I have turned on is the braking line. No ABS, TCS, Stability Control. Simulation steering and damage too.

No secret here boss

I use manual + clutch in every race. I find that Im much faster with it.

C'mon, its so much more fun without!

Get it.

 

Impressive to those using manual and clutch. I can't even do manual lol I always forget to shift or thinking about it makes me mess up my line then. Probably has to do somewhat with never having a manual car probably.

 

Do I go to sleep......or play forza.........goddamnit

 

I don't know when/if I will get back to career or mp with all of these rival races going on........ addicting!

 

No wheel. I already own a wheel that is ps3 / pc compatible, and never wanted to sacrifice the space to store another.

And about the clutch stuff, perhaps civic has some input on this. I had to mess with the controller mapping to make it anywhere near usable. I have A button as my clutch so I can slide my thumb onto it then to the upshift or downshift. Right bumper is camera and left is handbrake. I wish you could just manually re map the controller instead of playing a puzzle game.

 

Same thing happens to me. I have been gunning for your elan time with my rwd integra, but the slalom and the last straight I am just a little bit ahead and I just barely graze a cone with my rear fender.

I find that the cones act strangely though. some of them I can set off by just touching the air near them. The ones in the hairpin at the beginning of the GP ring track I can basically knock over with the front of my car and it doesn't care. Especially if I am using my 50's Thunder bird. I can pretty much knock down every cone on the track with the trunk of that car and the game doesn't count it against me.

 

My fingertips are raw.

 

Civic & one of you other guys have got most of these tracks nailed down. Spent an hour last night & got past a couple of ya'll with the Lotus @ TG & NSX-R @ Suzuka.

And yeah, I use the auto. I can't drive manual with a controller, unfortunately, though I am tempted to buy a Fanatec for this game.

 

Fanatec is tempting me as well. Then I will want to build a full cockpit though which would double the cost.

 

Wtf my last post didn't save?!?!?!?!

 

I already posted this once but I guess it didn't save

Finally got around to taking some pictures. Twin turbo SV...





Love this thing...







This thing is insane. And it's stock.





Soon to be twin turbo...

 

closing in on my goal. Hopefully I will get to it tonight.

 

Sexy pics. The supersport slight drift one is awesome.

 

i think ill need to do something about the controller situation too. I kinda cant stand racing with the xbox controller. i even looked at videos of that wireless one, even that looks like a better experience to me than the regular controller. and, I kinda dont wanna buy ANOTHER wheel... Ive owned like 6 over the years lol. the wireless one is compact and only $60.

 

New GT-R Spec-V.

 

I got one of those last night as well. Mine is white

 

Just got a 150,000cr bounty from civicdrivr

 

Ok so I reached level 50 however the points keep going up after with a level 51 showing next but the car list says nothing about this. I wonder if it is some secret cars?

 

Or maybe you can get higher than level 50 but you stop getting free cars. I thought I read something about going to level 150

 

My button setup:

Accelerator - Right trigger
Brake - Left trigger
Change view - Right button
Clutch - Left button
Look back - Y
Emergency brake - A
Shift up - B
Shift down - X

I find that using my left index finger on the clutch and my left middle finger to modulate the brake the easiest way to do this.

Yea, Im not sure whats up with that. It happens to me as well. It will say I missed a gate but I look back and its still standing and never moved.

Its addicting isnt it? Every time I try to play career mode I see a message saying my time was beaten, so that takes all of my attention.



Im going to build that ottoman I posted some pages back and pick up the fanatec. I have a feeling Id be worse with the wheel, but I still want it.

Ill back on after work to reclaim my times



I figured there would be more then 50 levels. It just seems to go by way too quickly.

 

Oh, so you are either a leading satanist or spawned from the devil himself. Got it. I also would like you point out that you may have beaten my time on the road america auto cross, but I was using a delorean so I still win .

 

Level 150 confirmed. Go down to #3...

http://forzamotorsport.net/en-us/underthehood1/

 

It's on

 

No, I still win. I managed to beat a car that can travel through time.

 

6 hrs and counting.......Im impatient......

 

Booo Level 51 prize is just 105,000cr. Ok time for bed. Shared two cars as well.

 

Hahahahahaha Morgan you're going to hate me for this.

I just did the Rivals mode against your time in the Radical SR8 on the Nurburginngngnngng. You beat me by 15 seconds but since I had a clean lap, and you didn't, I beat your time.

I'm ranked #837 with a time of 7:41.262. You're ranked #3180 with a time of 7:26.530. Stay out of the grass son

Oh and thanks for the 25k

Edit: Actually 73,090cr

 

The payouts are pretty great, I think I have done the last 3 levels and made about 3 million just doing the rivals mode.

 

I was playing yesterday trying to beat one of you bastards time on the Top Gear track and literally said to myself..."What kind of witchery bullshit are they pulling?"

 

I know you can run a much better time with the NSX-R at Suzuka, J. Was surprised at your pace through the s-curves & the 2 turns before you go under the bridge.

Took me a couple laps to finally get past you in the Elise at TG, though.

 

So i got the speed wheel yesterday. immediately played 12x worse than when i normally do. Its ridiculously hard to get used to/play with. Its not like using a wheel which is anchored and always has a center, this thing flies everywhere.

Don't get me wrong, the speed wheel is incredibly accurate, but also very very hard to use. You can see how accurate it is using telemetry

hopefully i can get used to it and didnt waste 50$

Yeah motion controllers always seemed like a gimmick more to me as they just look very hard to use.

 

There were about 5 of us on last night. I tried to get everyone in a party so we can do some club races, but nobody responded....

 

Photoshoot of the F at different locations since doing so gets you an achievement lol. I tried making it as close to looking like mine as I could. I hate that you cannot change the position of the car at all.

 

You can change the position...kinda.

When you pick your car, and then return to the menu and the different shots cycle, let it cycle to which ever angle you want the car then hit "Take Photo."

The car will be left in whatever position it was in during the "eye candy" shot.

So you can't "free" move the car around, but you can let it move itself in about 5-6 different positions.

Heres an example.





Im trying to get a buddy to buy a 360 and Forza, heres his real car.

 

Lol i was like where the hell did you get the background in the last picture. It looks awesome.

 

So in the first pick are the wheels straight on the Miata or are they still always turned. That is the part that bothers me the most. Wish they would at least switch to the other direction or something.
