Forza 4

It's hard when its not linked into the actual game....

Sigh I already had this idea going, but everyone eventually stopped playing.

This would be tough to do - the leader-boards will list out the fastest time you've run on a track for each class, no car-type filtering. I know I've run faster times in a 400 car than I can run in a stock E30M3.

Could always do an 'on-your-honor' list, just put down what your time was. Cheating by putting down a faster time or dirty lap there is a shallow victory.


all that said, I'm in. I need a challenge, computer sucks. :)


Elva - search for the old F4 lap times thread (I think Farbin started it). Model it after that, pick a few tracks and keep the first post updated with times that everyone posts (with or without pics for proof).

Alright, I looked at the old thread and it was pretty wishy-washy with regard to rules, so I'll be firmer but obviously take input. I guess we can make the picture optional, but I personally prefer it. What do we think: 4 tracks to choose from, so we can get a variety of driving conditions? Some suggestions off the top of my head are Infineon, Suzuka, Mugello, Laguna Seca, Camino Viejo, and Road America. (Or the Nordschleife if anyone is up to it!!!) If we narrow it down I can make a poll or we can decide it here/in the new thread. To start, I'll set a quick benchmark time on each final track. I'm not home until Monday, so we can finalize things until then. Feel free to add suggestions too!

This should be fun!!

I'd be down. Or we could all just do lots of rivals again...


Buying Ferraris I meant to get the Ferrari collector achievement... I need about $5million more to get the top few. Already have the 5 most expensive cars in the game tho!

I like this idea but I think there's a more official way to do it where your time is marked on the r3v clan but I'm not sure if you can make it car specific. Sounds like fun tho!

^Interesting. 312p I found, as many did to be an AWESOME leaderboard car. So easy to drive despite its dual natured temperament.

Got back into FM4 after playing horizon for a bit -- what do you know beat world tour mode :D now to buy all those ferraris...

The f40 is all you need, don't bother with the 312p it handles like shit but it does look spectacular

Clan? Sorry, I just got an Xbox/the game, so I'm new to all that stuff.

Little thread resurrection for a suggestion: I think someone tried doing this before but it didn't take off, so why not try again?

Who would be in for a r3v Forza 4 time trial? We would all use the stock E30 M3 (not the one you can win, the one you buy), do NO mods at all, and see how we stack up! I know they did the Top Gear track on E30Tech, but we could vote on a favorite track or do a variety. Any interest? If so I could start a separate thread for it. If not, guess I'll stick to the Cortina :D

Rules so far:
1. Stock M3 (the one with a 357 rating)
2. No mods at all (aero, ride height, brake balance, tire pressure, etc.)
3. Flying lap
4. Must be clean
5. Post pic of start menu like this one:
