Forza 4 1st drivers challenge

[cormier]

Ill try a few runs tonight -- the tire pressures may force me to tune some more than i have been anyways. Are people allowed to enter more than once, say if someone else beats their time?

Myself and a few other people hold Spec Forza races. Multiple different cars. We usually go on whenever, and we have a BTCC style Championship every thursday

This is an open group kind of thing? I may join in I've had lots of free time taken up by forza recently...

Maybe I will start some sort of Spec competition on GT5...

Might renew my interest.

No worries about starting up, I'll carry on

Sounds good about tire pressures then; I'll have to see what works best. I would assume a bit up from stock would be helpful, but I'm curious how it affects breakaway...Maybe I'll try a few laps at 28 and a few at 32 and see what happens.

Two things.
One, show-stealer
Two, I definitely think tire pressure adjustments should be counted as a modification. Tire pressure adjustment can affect tire grip, breakaway progressiveness, and corner-to-corner responsiveness. Granted I don't know how specific these things are in Forza 4, but I figured leaving it alone would keep things exactly equal.

Sorry man, too many times on the interwebs I see people think of cool things, but never implement it trying to "iron out" the details. Might as well get it started and see what we do/don't like.

I like being able to adjust the tire pressure. In real life like SpecE30 I'm sure adjusting tire pressures is just about the only thing you can manipulate in a "spec" type race. Might as well play in the game like in real life.:up:

Also, so is the plan to do one track a week? I could be on board for that, keeps things fresh. I'll be hitting the lake bed once I'm home!

Im assuming stock tire pressures as well?

I didn't mention it because I think it should be the one variable allowed besides driver skill. I personally don't think pressure is a "mod"

1:50:737 but I rewound the car after taking the above screen capture so it wasn't a clean lap:hitler:

My best lap after a few minutes: 1:52:869. I know some of you guys can destroy this time!

[Eric]

Thought this was a cool idea in the Forza 4 thread, so here is the challenge:

- E30 M3 ZERO MODS
- Laguna Seca
- Clean lap
- Post a screen shot, or s cell photo w/ proof of clean lap
- 1 week to get your lap in. This weeks challenge ends midnight, 9 Feb.
