Running of the Spaghetti

This is a race/event where we turn the Ferraserati 612 Spaghetti into the Ferrari it should have been, and then we do what it wasn't designed for: driving.

I have created the "tune". It has been tested by myself and Dom, and we have come to the conclusion, even without TCS, the car is very stable.

There will be no buy in because the car sucks cornbeef, and you can't put a price on not having fun.

The reward will be the satisfaction that you turned this POS into a (barely) driveable car.

Official Info

Event will be: two timed races, followed by a non mandatory "grand prix" race.

-One night event
-3 races within the event.

-"Tune" is A600
-No buy in, no rewards, other than the money from finishing the race.
-Liveries are NOT mandatory, but you get bonus style points for spaghetti/pasta related liveries. Flying Spaghetti Monster is huuuuuuuuge bonus points.
-Flying Spaghetti Monster is the mascot, and our god. So is Cthulhu, but shhh.

I want everyone who is definitely interested to post times they can participate. Include if you've received the tune as well.

PS: Most underrated Ferrari in all of ever.

After much deliberation, this is my vote for the track list.

Iberian Mini
Ladera Mini
Fujimi Kaido
Rally Di Positano
Suzuka Full
Nurburgring
and Camino Mini

You know, tracks that suit this car the most.

Here's some backstory on the Spaghetti.

One day, a Maserati and an Aston Martin decided that they loved each other very much. They each had one too many drinks, and about a year later, this was born. They soon realised that there was something wrong with it, though - it was grotesquely unwieldy and had the front hood scoops resembling a vampire's fangs. So, they abandoned the car on Ferrari's doorstep. Ferrari decided to take it in, put the engine similar to the F50's in it. The only difference is the Spaghetti's didn't have enough power to move it's 5000 lb body with any sense of urgency. Ferrari was done with the car, though and put it for sale. They sold 3 of them before deeming it useless and abandoning the car altogether.

Won't you give the Spaghetti a home?

Come on everyone, this will be (not really) fun!

Depends on what night it is held on.

I think it should be a like, 1.5 hour event one night. Three 20 minute races then a 30 minute final race on Amalfi or something.

At A600, this car is actually great. Good handling, xcel and top end - perfect on the Ring. It's just ugly as sin.

It's funny because you're exactly right. Mine understeers a lot, but that's cause I can't tune. But anyway, anyone else interested in this?

UPDATE: This will not be a series, just a one night event. Date and time TBD.

This and what time?

After playing Forza for nearly a full year, it's fun to still discover new cars and ways to drive. This could be the most underrated Ferrari in the game. Tri-ovals, anyone?

Seems like a good amount of interest, considering there's not a set date yet Llama and I are working on a date, it's looking to be sometime in November, when schedules are a little less cluttered FLR wise.

I think it's definitely gonna be a one night event.

Also updated first post.

I don't see the update, lol

Okay, I've finally finished updating it to what I wanted it to say lol

Still interested, depending on the date/track selection. IMO, Iberain and Ladera are just goofy T10 creations. Fujimi would be too much with the # of tight turns and Suzuka would be hell given the constant back and forth turning as well as the sweepers. (Unless you're runnig aero and then you're just lame anyway.) But of course I qualify all of this as just my opinion.

Hhhhmmm, don't think I've ever seen a road racing car without aero.

I can say this, the tune does not have aero. It's stable enough without it, and it completely removes the advantage the Spaghetti has over the other A class cars - top end.

Anyone else interested?

If you're still unsure, check out the review of the tune we'll be using, link is in sig.

Attention everyone who's interested, PLEASE post when good times are to race! Thank you.

I'm booked for Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Other days should be okay.

I'm generally free - as long as there's some advance notice.
