    Forza 4 Challenge #20 - E30 M3 DTM!

    Alright guys, I think it's time to return to the only important car in this game (;)) and use the E30 M3 again! We will be racing at Laguna Seca again as well! To make things a bit more interesting, I'm using an idea suggested way back in our first challenge: Set up a car vaguely like a DTM-spec and duke it out! In that spirit, I've come up with a specific build for this week. Please buy all the listed upgrades and nothing else, but feel free to tune what you can.

    Your car should end up as follows: B class 500, 240HP, 201ft-lbs, 2,380lbs.

    Race clutch
    Sport transmission
    Race driveline
    Race differential
    Sport tires
    Race brakes
    Race springs and dampers
    Sport front and rear sway bars
    Race cage
    Race weight reduction
    Sport tire compound
    245 front and rear tires
    Team Dynamics Pro Race 1 wheels
    BMW front bumper 2
    BMW rear wing 2
    Reiger sideskirts
    Race pistons
    Race flywheel
    Street oil and cooling

    I haven't tried the setup yet, but I will tonight and we can see if the formula needs any tweaking! Input is welcome!

            Just building the car. Is race springs and dampers missing from your list?

                            I can't get below 1:43. I'm using a wheel and pedals though. I'll give it a shot with a controller.

                            what is everyone getting up to in operating temps for the tires?
