    Forza 4 Drivers Challenge #15

    As suggested, I think this week's challenge will feature Fujimi Kaido as our track. Is the full one too long? Let's get some opinions. As far as the car, it must be rear wheel drive, must be Japanese, and must not exceed B class. Should leave a good amount of options for us!

    Standings:

    1) HighOnLife - 9:00.274
    2) ELVA164 - 9:02.836
    3) blasphemy101 - 9:06.645
    4) eskimo810 - 9:13.740
    5) bmwguy325is - 9:21.853
    6) Eric - 9:43.xxx (dirty)

        Here's my first attempt:

        9:23.297

        Looks like the Miata is pretty down on power though. Might have to look elsewhere, try some different things.

              I know, took me 5 attempts to get a clean lap in and by that point I didn't want to attempt a flying lap

                9:43 in the same car, but I tapped a guard rail on the second to last corner!!!

                This track is hard! But I really enjoy the last section, it flows very very nicely.

                  I honestly like the reverse way better.

                    I'll give it a whirl tonight. I doubt I'll ever get a clean lap though. Then again, B-class cars are usually pretty easy to manage.

                    Edit: I was right. I did three laps each in an AE86 and and S2000. None were clean. Rage quit.

                        Decided to try the Cortina's (and the 2002's) old nemesis, the Datsun 510:

                          I feel like I missed something in the restrictions for this week.

                              I was able to muster the patience for three consecutive [restrained] laps, two of which were clean. The S2000 is fun to drive and drift around corners but it has close to no torque.
