Neither did forza 2's, there were a number of cars that basically broke it. I don't think you could get in a race for a while without some guy in a modified lotus elan leaving everybody in the dust.

Unrestricted. Def. a few easy ones in this bunch as well. IS-F can win the DTM race unmodified. As before, sport softs can make for an easy win, too.

That has happened to me when my PS3 was having network/PSN connection problems. If you have a router, try rebooting it before turning on the PS3.

You might need to open some ports then (not exactly sure how the PS3 connects). Do you have UPNP enabled in your router?

yeah its dumb. I mean, wtf does Polyphony care? whats it to them that they want to limit us like that?? at least make it like, 5 cars?? who the f cares? I have a feeling they will open up the limitation when the game becomes less popular, over time. And that is BS.

Some of them is stupid. I remember one race that requires a car that is $625,000....and the prize money,....I probably spent like $70k to give it 40 more hp and full tranny (damn stock tranny goes up to 60mph only...lol)...
