Our friends over on the Corvette Forum have Forza LMS series starting. Michel and I are all ready joined up with them for some clean for racing competition.

Take a look over here if you have time for it.

Your probably entering the corner to fast! but I assume with some adjustment to the arb you could dial some of it out.

I've added Veyron and F355 Challenge (really an amazing car) to the club garage yesterday. Will add BMW 1M later on today. Don't really have any fun cars otherwise - spending pretty much all my time in Rivals mode racing default Audi S5, so haven't had a need to expand my garage yet...

Ya I saw that. I managed to make enough $ in 2 hours to get the Ruf last night. Money comes a little easier in FM4. I didn't have enough left over to upgrade the RGT-8 but I will when I can.

I should have enough money for RGT-8 - I will buy it and add to the garage later today. Really disappointed they did not add CRT-3...

^ agree to a certain extent, but i'm ok with slow additions to the series which are of quality, as opposed to the Grand Turismo method of over promise, under deliver and underbuild.

Rivals mode is awesome too

I leveled up to pretty much to 39 just doing all the rival mode races. Acutally I have just the time attack rivals category to finish.

I did FM2 and FM3, these took hours and hours pointless races against crappy AI. They were to easy and only drove their line and wouldn't budge from it even if you were there first.
Point is that with just 8 hours of play I have a plentiful garage now with really awesome cars of all class types. The AI is much better and with the dynamic AI, I have a really hard time winning races and they are only meters behind me waiting to over take me.

It could have used more real world tracks but overall I think it is the best Forza yet. After now playing with it and the wheel I think the physics are better then GT5. Though while the FM32 replays are great and even some tracks don't have much jaggies. I still think that GT5 has better anti aliasing when racing. I think the xbox just doesn't have the hardware to be on the same level. I can only imagine the next xbox platform. It should be perfection.

The club garage is filling up. Try to keep the cars you have shared upgraded to it's class maximum level or 1 level above it's class. Doing a quick upgrade will do but make sure any car over S class has at least racing slicks on it. Also put a basic tune on it at least. If it has aero make aero 3/4 at least to make the cars more competitive if someone does choose to use it.

After making upgrades or tuning changes you need to sync the car that is shared. Also if you put on a custom paint that is locked you can not sync the car. To bad I wish I could share these with you all.

Was about to post in the Off-topic section asking people to join a club, when I realized there was another club there already:

https://rennlist.com/forums/off-topi...-thread-5.html

With only 5 people, maybe it makes sense for us to move there?

P.S. Got my Ferrari collection going. Can't get myself to buy RUF's - only 3 cars and all are higher class; I much prefer slower cars. Maybe if they will include a couple of extra cars via download, but first have to assemble Ferrari's...

For RUF's check out paint designs by Bad0Karma - he has awesome this year's Flying Lizard Le Mans skins. A bit on the expensive side, but still...

I put whole bunch of Ferrari's yesterday in club's garage, but kept them stock. Hey, they are classic car after all lol. I didn't get to tuning and believe it's better to leave everything stock if you can't tune properly...

Cheers!

Nah not me. They don't have the Renn tag but your free to switch if you want.
