Is the addition of Indy cars the reason they re-opened P-Class again? To give you a chance to go back and do it again with the Indy Cars.

I think you're supposed to be able to use any car you like. The more classes they unveil, the more cars you can level up should that take your fancy.

Right but P was the only one of the previous Open tour that was re-opened. E and X were added. I just thought once Indy cars were added they were giving you a chance to use them in an Open series event
 
Finished the 488 challenge and then did the Lambo one,both were suprisingly nice cars to drive,am also looking forward to testing the M1 racer some time soon.
 
I just did the M1 invitational. Eleven to thirteen laps is a long race but the car handled it without any problems.
 
I’d started that new Open Series when it first appeared. I completed the first event and was given a Pass on the next six series so completed the last two. I decide today to get a 1st on those series I was given a Pass for. I did a race in the first series and was given a first overall for that series. Another 5 races (one from each Class) and I got my 10 firsts for the Series and another Z Nismo! I finished the One Make Series yesterday and got another M1 Race Car.
 
Ran the first two races in the Daytona Prototype series in the Corvette. Tried the Daytona one on level 6 and spent 90% of the race sitting in 4th about 2 seconds off of the lead Ford. Lucked into a 2nd place finish after the P3 Ford got held up in traffic. For Laguna Seca I decided to drop down to level 5 since the Fords are so powerful. But at the end of the race P2 had a fastest lap 2.5 seconds faster than mine. That's really beginning to aggravate me. It's like they drop back intentionally to run those fastest laps.

For the final race I might break with my tradition and try to find a tune for the Corvette to keep it from sliding so much.
 
Managed to get a decent session in today so did a few hotlaps in the MP4/7 to get the overalls, another 20 laps at Sunset to help get the count for the NASCARs, and completed the P and X class Open Events.

The Valkyrie Pro is a beast of a machine which annihilates the competition but it has a really annoying characteristic of front wheel bound and rebound oscillations above 180mph, getting really bad above 200mph. Has anyone been able to tune these out?
 
Finished the last of the One Make Series, finished Daytona Prototypes, and finished the Lotus Invitational.....sorry, Grand Prix Legends. At some point I want to go back and run it again in a Lotus just to see if it can over power it's own kind because it was a struggle in the McLaren. A Lotus was always less than a second behind at the end except in that wet Spa race.
 
Today I did the entire American Touring Car series and the first two races of 70's Grand Prix. Not looking forward to that third race though. 4 laps of the Nordscheife in the rain.
 
Well, been a long time since I fired up my console (or PC for that matter) at all, this morning I had a few free minutes and decided to fire up Forza and try out the Ginetta series. I love those cars, just so easy to dance all over that edge. I am still slow and terrible as ever though. Happy to report that the drivatar liveries appear to be back, bittersweet moment when the very first car I came across in the very first practice was that of a very good friend I've played games with for many years who is terminally ill and hospitalized, and the Ginetta was always one of his favourites. I finished the first race at Brands and shut it down.
 
Spent some time finishing off the MX5 cup, great car but harder to catch up from the back than the Ginetta Juniors were.

After that, I painted the Ford V8 Supercar ready to start that series, just need to edit it as I'm not happy with a couple of bits.
 
Taking a break from the Career and just having fun with Free-Play. I set up my own Nurburgring 24h race with GT3, GT4 and TC, 4x Time, 2x Tire. I'm off work tomorrow, so I should finish the race then.
 
Touring Cars World was another banger for me and a great way to level up my Golf GTi while the slower cars helped me learn the tracks.
