I want FH6 and FM to get the same cars at the same time, in sync. Wherever possible, that is. Replace offroaders with race cars or returning cars for FM. I honestly thing almost every road car should make it into FM, including modern suvs.

Of course, this is highly unlikely because FH probably has a bigger budget for licenses (and licensing for each game is different), FH is significantly more popular, and therefore acts as a bigger incentive to be an advertisement.

I don't even think many of the road and race cars will make their way over to FM just because of weird licensing issues between the two. I don't understand how FH5, an open world game, can get first dibs or exclusivity into so many race cars both new and old but FM can get some here n there even being a year in. Maybe as time goes on and licenses expire it's possible but their car list is way better then FM besides the few surprise race cars that we do have.

I’m confused. I just reached the American Road Racing chapter in the current Featured tour, and there’s only three different opponent cars. Why? The game has so many old-school IMSA and SCCA cars, but this event doesn’t utilize them.

I know I mentioned this not too long ago, it's a little crazy that they didn't think some of these events through in terms of cars. They could have easily thrown in the Ford Capri grp.5, and both the BMW 3.0 CSL and the M1 procar. But it if they wanted to stay true to the late 70s early 80s American grp.5 racing series then wheres cars like the Porsche 935 that was in FM7, the Chevy Dekon Monza, and Lancia Beta Monte Carlo Turbo which was also in FM7?

I just beat the Daytona Prototype series and it's a similar issue. I know the Corvette and Riley MkIIXX were the prominent DP's in the 2010s but it would have been nice to either make this series a multi class event or have included a couple more DP's from that era like the Lexus, Pontiac or Porsche into this game.

They can't use the other cars as then they wouldn't be able to run a series with those 3 DP cars in Featured Tour number xx and the Capri/BMW/M1 in Featured Tour number yy. They are streeeeetching the events out.

In a similar way that the number of cars from the Mustang Tour that can be used in the Power Tour is zero, because each of those series in the Power Tour is restricted to 2 or 3 cars out of the 600. Which really irritated me as if those Mustangs aren't perfect for the Power Tour then what is? Especially now the Mustang races have disappeared into the ether.

Their entire gameplan is built on dripfeeding us endless series with 2 or 3 cars in for 3/4/5 years, because they can't think of ANYTHING else. Multiclass appeared for one month, but that was a blip and who knows if/when that might reappear.

This game is very fond of Chevys. The conspiracy theorist in me suspects that maybe the manufacturer dropped a lot of money on T10 to ensure their vehicles outperform the Fords in two-make races.

Presumably thats why the Mustang tour had to be one make, so they didn't get beat

Chevy can be good at promotion. I return to this Superbowl commercial every so often.
Angel was ONLY 85 when I met him, he retired from barbering officially at 95 and is now 97 (and I hope still going strong). He received a Presidential Award last year.

Due to the crazy tight schedule we had for US66, I only got to spend 10 minutes chewing the cud with Angel, but considering all the celebs I've met, spending time with Angel was probably the most emotional meet I've ever had. His beeming smile is something you never forget

Lately i had been trying myself to complain about people trashing this game, but the fact that i see 10 different essays about the game trashing while nobody talking about the positives annoys me, i saw almost NO VIDEOS talking the stuffs the studio has doing and the plans to make the game better in short and long 6term, but i see people trashing the game for not being what they expected like if they coud make 2 years work in a single yeaar

To make things worst, the same lies and stupid assumptions are being spilled away with a coat of racism/xenophobia on it now, a video that i just saw and that motivated me to post here asp had implied that most T10 contract workers were "Indians that dont liked cars and went to go take holidays in mumbai after their contract with T10 ended", not mentioning that there had workers that LIKED TO WORK with the game but were not able beacuse of the Microsoft cuts, that after their silence period ended went on to youtube to explain about it, BUT NO MENTION OF SAID DEVELOPER OR THE VIDEO HE WAS DONE

i am all for construtive critizism, Hoki videos, even if a bit negative, had shown the game still have potential and told that things were worst a year ago and are better now. what i am agnaist is some of unfair things that the game has that were caused not by the devs but a bunch of people in the marketing departament that dont even had contact with the devteam (and assumming how better the xbox marketing had became, probally they went fired so)

This type of thing is what makes me frusted, beacuse most unaware people take as truth and ended up unintrested in the potential of the game or worst

I hope the 10 year plan still continues, it has prooven that can work for motorsport and for upcoming gen, xbox just needs hang on with the game and keep ingoring the stupid critics while supporting its xbox fanbase, lunching stuffs that bring hype to the game like the NASCAR update, the worst thing that would happen is them giving up of the game and motorsport overall as i said over and over

If you want more cars like that go to Forza forums,. in fact i call everyone that can to go into Forza Forums, vote and talk about the cars and what things you guys want for the game, the most active the FM part of forums be the better

Licences and parternships tend to happen for both games at same time, even port of parternships

you want see a exemple? NISMO Festival at Fuji Speedway had both Forzas being marketed and Forza Franchise had sponsored the carparade segiment of festival

the problem with cars in the game is more about licencing of racing series in other games ( how the hell FormulaE decided make a exclusivty with trackmania of all games?) and probably lack of personal to convert those cars to the new game
