Pretty sure it was because the gloves didn't match the shirt.
Couldn't have been the cars fault.

You held your own pretty well through the turns. That looks way more fun in real life than in Forza.

looks like he pulled out of the turns and on the straights, but you closed into the turns, either way, looks like fun.

I found it more motivating to try and catch someone faster, gave me a visible goal. It was tougher (for me) to push when you are going against a clock.
I needed that visual incentive, discouraging as it was to fail, which, in my case was the outcome more often than not.

Still, very smooth driving on your part Rick and a nice line too. What a blast to be on the track!
Thanks for the video.

Hero go pro. I borrowed it from a friend to see if I need to buy one. Another $300 for the slope!
It was definitely the driver,not the car that was coming up short...

Very cool. I was looking at them a couple of days ago. I "need" one!
BTW...Amazon has the MotosSport version on sale for $239. That leaves $60 for future slope sliding...
