Weekend Track Warrior

We could eventually do every layout of most tracks, if you wanted. Just leave out any P2P track, TG, and Benchmark. Maybe leave out Ladera short/mini and Iberian mini.
I think Fujimi could possibly work as a track, especially with multiple classes so it's not a CF of 16 cars in one small area. Maybe even delay each car by ~5 seconds and do a 3 lapper or something.

But basically we could run through almost every layout, plus this could help with the "drive on every layout" achievement. If it's a never ending series I don't see why not.

Example:
Week 1: Laguna, Mugello Club
Week 2: Infineon Indy, Iberian short
Week 3: Nurb GP Long, Suzuka East
Week 4: Tsukuba, Motegi West
etc

If the interest is there, then we could possible touch every track.

sounds good to me. if you really wanna mix it up, do a speed track and grip track on the same night, and make everybody use the same build for both.

still sticking with my Typhoon, any upgrading tips?

Drive it stock and see what you really need to upgrade the most. If you don't need race brakes, don't get them. Balance your upgrades between the engine and handling, only getting parts for where it's the weakest. Try a few different versions to see how it is.

Originally I of course looked at the Mustangs for this, but decided I have driven them in enough races for now. While looking for something different I naturally turned to my beloved Porsche's. I found a hidden gem in the 944 Turbo. I didn't think much of this car in FM3, but in this game it's a beaut! I will be bringing this to the party.



It's a mid A class car with a moderate mix of handling and engine upgrades. It's neither a LB car nor a lobby killer, but it sure is a blast to drive!

I need to work on my Camaro still. I would like to see about starting this on 7/14/12 around 8 or 9 pm est.

i'm having trouble with this, how am i supposed to figure out within the game how much my upgrades cost, and switching back and forth to get the best build? i don't have a computer next to my xbox and all my upgrades are free for anything i'm interested in building.

maybe i'll just buy a 50,000 car and race it. lol

print out soul's spreadsheet, that's all you need.

Cool paint, where'd ya get it?

I really like my bird, handles well and has a bit of speed. This should be fun.

This is becoming an 80's race, quick, someone drive a GNX!

GNX cost too much. I looked at that one.

My computer is in the other room as well Blooz. You probably already have some idea of the what you intend to do. You can use the build page to work it out, then go build the car.

Rokk, I found that paint on the SF, and it was free to boot!!

I bet, along with every car in the game! You and db have too much free time! Gonna have to get you more paints to work on for us and give DB some LB cars to tune.

Since you thru it out there I took a break from paiting and tried every car that could be fun, competitive, or good looking. Quite surprised how many went to S class and how few were actually good or fun to drive. There are some serious baller cars able to be made for 50k. This is gonna be fun if I can ever decide what car to use. Narrowed it down to 3- Pontiac Solstice, BMW M5, or Ford Focus SVT. This gonna rock \„/

I forgot my wife had something planned this Saturday so we will start the weekend after instead.

didn't get a chance to run any cars last night, i'll try and get on tonight and run some of them.

I have updated the first post with rules and the track selections with dates and times.

Dammit now I'm considering an Alfa or Fiat or a Merc..too many cars that could be fun.

I gonna go out on a limb here and run the Pontiac Solstice. Don't give me no crap about my color choice it's HOT OK. Pic coming later

Llama I have a Volvo 850 wagon you might enjoy.

I know the fun of the 850, trust me, haha.

I'm gonna shoot myself in the hoof with this but I'm gonna drive the slowest car from Forza 3, and the former MSM member in me just can't say no to it.

Which car? Why, the Rabbit of course! All 2,100lbs and 90 horsepower of it. Plus it being one of the first popular hot hatches gives it some street cred. 0-60 in 9.6~ seconds in a 90hp FWD car. Even the Deslowrean can't do that!

Edit: I hope to Cthulhu we're not having the race timer on, hahaha

There is the Llama we know. I'm sure you'll be happy.

I'm sure I'll have the stupidest grin on my face as the faster cars lap me. Unless someone wants to join me in a slower car, haha

Races will be a 30 minute timer.
