[Forcone]

This, and people must be careful coming back on track. You can't just swing back in the middle of the lane, people are driving there...





Oh man, nothing to add here! That was awesome!!! I'm at work now, but when I come home I'm going to check the replay.

And yes I was running the stock gears In my testlaps I was running low 50's, I thought it was fast enough.. Also, did you do the brake upgrade? Becaus it looked like I could brake so much harder then you did, think this is the reason I could keep up with you a couple of laps..

Thanks for the clean racing 👍

I did the brake upgrades, didn't tune them properly though. I think I was just a bit over cautious with them.. Should've given them a proper smashing!

 

[Carlos]

Or now I think of, it was the front splitter, I had that thing almost on maximum downforce...

Can't wait for next race!

 

[Wiggs]

Congrats to Forcone and Carlos. It was really a 2 man race today. If anybody has the replays from the Maple Valley and Mugello races can you please send them to me? Thanks.

 

[Carlos]

I only saved the 20 lap race

 

[ImaRobot]

i got an invite for the race but didnt notice till about 10 minutes after when i went in you guys were already on lap 5 or 6.

I noticed a few guys get online and try to join right after we started. I wasn't expecting such a big turn out today. I wish I waited and ran another 3 lap warmup. Sorry goes out to the guys that just missed the start of the race. I'll try and give it a few extra minutes from now on.

Anyhow....

I joined the club today then got invited to the race 5 minutes later. So anything can happen.

Hmmm me likey. I was hoping for A class

 

[Crispy]

Same here. I can't really perform too much lower, or too much higher! Hopefully I can get used to my wheel by then. (Or I'll just keep playing Skyrim, that game is too addicting!)

Hehehehhe, I even had to wake up a couple hours earlier to give me some time to explore the beautiful and completely corrupt town of Riften! Took me an like an hour to get there by foot from Whiterun, but it was a fun journey! I think I'm just level 8 at the moment, but gaining exp quite rapidly... First thing I did when I got there was to pickpocket the old "mafia-related" hag, Maven Black-Briar. Got the key to her mansion, gotta go "check it out" during night time....

But yes, Forza! A-class sounds fun, even though it's on the edge of my comfort zone. I love C-B class cars the most!

 

[Forcone]

And hey Chris, thanks for the pics! They are always so nice to watch!

I got Skyrim for Christmas...haven't even opened it yet. I guess I need to try it and see what all the fuss is about. I don't believe that crap about B and C class either...we all know you're the Stig!

 

[Carlos]

It's probably not as exciting now but my controller was all wet haha.

Is Skyrim that good? Hmmmm... Maybe I'll try it out...

Please do! If you like RPG stuff, you'll love this one!

Ahhhahahah, that's a bit of an overstatement don't you think? Thanks for the kind words anyhow!

Yeah the intensity of the race doesn't really show that much on the video, but I can tell you, I was REALLY pushing it!! As you can see, my tail is stepping out of line all the time - quite shoddy looking driving actually! Lucky for me, you went a bit wide a couple times before the finishing line, who knows what might have happened...

That was a great battle Carlos...you are Stig Jr.!!! Right now, I'm Captain Slow. ...but I vow one day to beat you both in a race!!!

 

[Forcone]

Hey by the way, what was the situation with our club number plates? Since we'll be starting the championship and all, wouldn't it be cool if we all had the same plates on our cars, with our own numbers on of course??

I think Rokkitship (sp?) has number plates with the club logo on them. I'm pretty sure I got mine from his storefront.

 

[Wiggs]

I have found the mighty Forcone's weakness...S class on La Sarthe! Thanks AVVSOM3 and Forcone for some entertaining racing today. I actually beat Forcone in a race! I'm ecstatic! Also thanks to Marmite and DomasRC for a couple of good races earlier this morning.

Hehehhe yeah... Have to do some "free" racing more often...! It is so hard to find time though...

 

[imported_Jarreau]

Yes, those were some pretty good races with you guys. Unfornate for that little crash with Wiggs at Indianapolis but we had some fun.

That crash was probably my fault...I rarely race above A class, so I have a hard time handling some of the race cars. I need to work on my S thru R1 driving skills.

 

[Carlos]

Hahaha yeaahhh that's the spirit! Are you guys online tomorrow evening? I wanted to go online tonight but I was still so tired from work that I slept a little more.. I'm on my last nightshift so I'm free the rest of the week

 

[Wiggs]

Ahhh a fellow shift worker. I had to work the last 4 nights, but I'll be off the next couple of days....not sure how much time I'll have to play the rest of the week though. I'll be on later tonight and probably early tomorrow. There were quite a few club members on today...had a few good races.

 

[Carlos]

Shift work ftw! This is my 15th night shift haha, many co-workers are suddenly sick so I got 'm all! Haven't seen daylight for a few days now...

What is early tomorrow for you? It's 11.35pm here now, coming home in about 8 hours. I'll go online when I'm home, maybe I see you!

That is a lot of nights...the most I've had to work in a row has probably been a little over 30 ...but that's rare for me. It's 5:35 pm here so I'll be asleep when you get off. I'll probably be on early tomorrow...maybe 14 hours or so from now.

30 O_O

In 14 hours from now I'll probably asleep, so I'll see you later that evening!

 

[imported_Jarreau]

I probably will also be going online on Forza 4 tomorrow, but my friends are coming over and they always wanna play Battlefield 3 or Modern Warfare 3 so I don't know how late I can come online on Forza 4.

 

[imported_Jarreau]

I will be getting up early and then will start playing Forza 4. But if you wanna race tomorrow guys add me on Xbox Live, gamertag AVVSOM3. Let's have some real racing like we did today.
