If you dirty your lap there, just hit rewind a couple times. You'll get flagged for the rewind (not a loss since your lap was already flagged), but it gives you a chance to take that corner clean and start the next lap clean.

If you already got the corner dirty before the rewind, it will stay dirty.

Only the lap you're on. As long as you hit rewind rewind far enough (usually only two rewinds are necessary, but sometimes more), and you don't do anything else to dirty your lap after you're done rewinding, you can start the next lap clean. You can even do this if you dirty your lap at the beginning of a lap. I got a dirty lap on the second corner of Prague full reverse last night. I rewound the maximum amount of times the game would allow me (six or seven rewinds), and I was able to restart that same lap clean.

I'm pretty sure I was going through that corners exactly like that, only slower, and lap stayed clean.
On one and only top replay I watched, driver even "kissed" the white wall from right side, just before last corner - and lap was clean...
But ok then, thank you guys!
Talking about rewind, I'm never/nowhere using it, I think I used last time in GRID or F1 2010, from times when I was still trophy hunter - and that was criteria for one
But it's up to personal preferences.
Btw, while u are spending time on backing in time, couldn't you just drive next lap?
Or it's up to making perfect one u are doing and it's good?
Anyway, not approving

If I'm going for the lowest clean time, if I dirty a lap near the end and it's going to cause my next lap to be dirty, then I'm more than happy to rewind so the next lap is clean. I'd rather spend 15 seconds rewinding to get a chance at a clean lap then spend two to three minutes on a lap which has no chance of being clean.Btw, while u are spending time on backing in time, couldn't you just drive next lap?

The use of rewind is up to the player. I don't consider it a moral failing to use it, but I respect people who don't use it.

I've only ever seen it work when you pass the line, and rewind back past it the other way. Never seen it work after already initially dirtying a lap and then pressing rewind. Dirty lap indicator even stays set if I do it that way. I'll check it out later.

It appears that prize cars from Bounty Hunter events aren't exclusive unicorns then. Fingers crossed that these will also make their way to the Specialty Dealer or Forzathon at some point.
And there's at least one car missing - the Aston Martin V12 Zagato from a recent round of Forzathon.

I haven’t had the gray car issue since the last update hit so it’s seemingly fixed (it will probably be worse than ever since I mentioned it wasn’t happening anymore 
).
The laggy menus isn’t really a glitch as it is them asking the Xbox to do more than it can handle by loading quite a few high lod 3D models pretty much at the same time. Not sure why they didn’t just stick to the normal snapshot setup and I don’t know if it’s something they can change.

1 out of every 3 cars in my garage will randomly lose its livery.
As far as the menus, fair point. Either way, it's yet another odd/poor decision by the T10 team. The only payoff I see is that you have a mini version of Forzavista in this menu that allows you to open the doors/hood. Why that felt that was necessary or worth the trade-off makes zero sense to me.

One time, my game froze while I was browsing the cars. I want thumbnails back in the next Forza.

I know how everybody feels about the car menu. I just despise how laggy it is! Not sure why T10 decided to go with that over still images this time around. It's infuriating!

Agree on the menus. I can't stand selecting a car. What confuses me is that the car buy selection menus are fine, it's just the personal garage that is painfully slow.

Its changing the way I actually used to play the previous games. I try as hard to avoid even going to the garage. When i go to the buy car menu its slow but its fine.
I also hate the fact that i cant select any favourite cars like in FM4. That i cant take pictures in the View Car option.
This just popped in my mind. Why dont we have a constant best lap tab when racing. Even simple things like this that have been in previous Forza’s are left out. I used to love racing my best ghost laps on select track to tune my cars. Its not implemented Its a great game but with a few little adjustments can be even better than FM4 ever was.

The loading speed of the garage is embarrassing. It gets slightly better after scrolling over the manufacturer tabs once, but restarting the game will then repeat the nightmare all over again. 
There is a minor benefit to it though. Selected cars load instantly back to the main menu, whereas it took longer to carry out this action in FM6 because the garage was only using static images. But who doesn't prefer faster garage browsing over the loading speed of car selection?

Not excusing it, but the difference between the two is that loading cars from your garage also has to query each installed part, paint job, and the car's history details from your garage database. Loading from the new car selection is quicker because it simply has to load a fresh car with no extra data.

It's not just that they've replaced the still images, they use the fully modelled high-poly cars in the selection screens. I can't fathom why they wouldn't just use lower quality models in the menus.

Has anyone else had an issue where all sound form the game is completely mute when in any multiplayer lobby screens?
I’ve has this in every lobby I’ve been in since the latest update and have had no sound in lobbies and for the majority of all Races I enter. Sound is usually gone until I return to single player.

The thing I don't understand is how the hardware of today doesn't allow for faster loading of high quality models. There must be some way to optimize it without opting for low quality models, which would compromise the selling point of HD graphics.
