Yeah I have the turbo cooler too, it helps ! And my XBox has been returned to Microsoft once for repairs last year, so it should be good. I have to figure out what I need to do to connect wireless because I put the XBox in the livingroom with my flat screen tv but I have no internet connection in there. I have the Live membership and I would add another RSR to the mix. I let you know asap.

Do you have the cooler that plugs into the wall separately or do you have the one that uses the xbox power.

The xbox powered one has issues because the fans over time get harder to get them to start to turn and take too much power from the xbox. The xbox has it's own fans and notices the it can't get enough power so it throws an error and doesn't boot.

The separately powered cooler also has a temp gauge so it will run even after the xbox is powered off, so it doesn't bake the mb from the residual heat after use, this will prevent the "red ring o death"

Ohhh I see...I have the one connected behind the console...By the way I just went to Laguna a minute ago and after 4 laps I turned 1.24.490 with the #45 RSR set up at R3 744, do you think I'd be OK to run with you ?

In the meantime, I thought this was a good action shot of the first place battle between Greg and I!

Mark, do you need me to help out at all filling out the spreadsheet for this week? Just let me know if I can help!
Nice pic! Sorry I didn't post this sooner on Rennlist ...

Round 4 of the Forza 3 ALMS series is in the books ...

Looks like we had a number of teams with financial issues, so they elected not to race this round, which ment we had a reduced field (3 GT1 cars, and 5 GT2 cars) :lol:

I did, but I bought it used off my roomate... he wanted to get the newer xbox with hdmi and i wanted to get one for cheap (and he gave me the 120GB HD out of it)... luckily it's still under waranty so i'll send it for repair. roomate said I could use his xbox in the meantime since he feels bad for it crapping out on me!

Unfortunately, I'm out of town this weekend and won't be able to race on Sunday (or make it on Saturday). Good luck to everyone! (Too bad, I enjoy road america)

Give me the info on how to join you on sunday, I'll send some friend requests in the meantime. I decided to take my XBox back downstairs and not go the wireless route. I prepared a #45 GT3 RSR. It will be orange with #4 on it, my old number when I was racing.

Should we be getting you a complimentary subscription to the same magazine as Al? All joking aside, I probably won't be at the GTG or racing this weekend either...lots of guests in town for my mother-in-law's 70th b-day bash.
