every time you say XFR, i think of the LFS XFR lol. Maybe Jaguar XFR or something ;D

dear lord...that is quick...what kinda speeds is it pulling?

i would enjoy race/GTR evo more if most of the servers in my area weren't passworded, and empty. And if it would auto download addon cars and tracks.

Get a room you two.

Anyway, i've heard this game is basically RACE with rally cars (and dirt circuits, not point to point races) So whats the communities take on it?
Is it worth getting it now, or waiting until its cheap?

but you can leave the original motor + RWD, i think as far as turbo or supercharged cams pistons etc. Haven't done it on these specific cars, but thats the norm with other cars of that age. L series engines sound mint IRL with triple carbs

Quote from Hallen :

Not nearly as much as they would on something like, oh I don't know, a rallye car maybe?

But your point is correct. On a race track, especially the LFS tracks, you aren't going to find much in the way of paved surface bumps that would push a shock into the fast bump area. For a track where you are taking a lot of curb and the curb is fairly sharp, then yeah, you'll get into that range.

I would point out a track like Sebring, and just about any of the US street courses definitely would put you into the fast bump range. But that doesn't apply to LFS so the damper settings we have are OK for the majority of it. But it would be nice to have the progressive type dampers.

South city. In a few places. Railway lines especially. I'd really like to see more tarmac rally type stages in LFS point to point *dribble* with some true road conditions (potholes, bad tarmac edges, gutters etc) But at the moment, south city is about the only track i can think of with some nasty bumps..actually..one of the aston tracks has that nasty bump right on the apex, left hander up towards the start line, just after you come down the "S" hill. So, there is a few places at the moment that could benefit from it.

Oldschool rides ftw.

I don't need to hear all this, I am a highly trained PROFESSIONAL.

is that from Freemans mind series?

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

I'm thinking maybe just keep it as is, but do little details red/white? For example, note the spotlights on the bumper. Maybe i could do this sort of thing on other parts of the car, like the bonnet vents for example?

Thanks.

I like that paintjob, looks good. Does anyone else think the back of that jag kinda looks like the back of a ford mondeo tho..

Quote from danowat :

And......back on topic.......

The car pack, I think its a very good pack, was suprised by the GTR, handles very well, apart from the active diff modelling (something that the GT5p version does very well).

The Panamera is suprisingly competitive, for what it is, and the Lambo SV is a great car.

Love it, of course, you have to love Forza first to even think about getting an addon pack, for for 400MSP, I think its worth it.

So wait....you had enough in game credits to be able to buy them all already????? i woulda thought the ferrari was quite expensive? Or do you now just own the cars you buy as DLC?

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

If i remember rightly, i couldn't do much.

I think all i could change was Wheels (But not tyres strangely enough) and the Pistons and Crankshaft and i think the Brakes could be uprated. It is now an R2 class. Awesome car to drive though, but suffers with chronic understeer on a standard tune, so i advise you get one of the storefront.

eh usually in forza with the mid engine cars (this worked on the CLK GTR i had in F2) you just have to make the diff lock more on decel, and less on accel, and it usually comes good (it's almost the opposite of what you'd think, about a 70%decel, 30%accel) That and it would probably like to be trail braked further into the corner. Mid engined cars push understeer like whores if you try to drive them like a "normal" car. Also might be worth backing the rear wing off a little so the backend can come around a teensy bit more.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Two more pics off of me BTW, showing the Ferrari F40C with a Paintjob i grabbed off of the Storefront.

Hot. I want the F40c badly. Trying to save my money atm. Out of curiousity, how far can you mod the F40C? REmove restrictors only? or nothing?

Do what most of the people in my gaming clan did with L4D2 (which was censored in aus) Buy it from the UK/US steam store lol

get to know the vehicle. My real life car makes peak torque @ 5500rpm, peak power at 6500rpm, and hits the limiter at 7600rpm. so i usually shift somewhere around 6500-7000 (1st gear i let it run to the limiter, generally)

be glad they didn't fine you for driving the wrong way. The fine for that is probably more! They shouldn't tail gate, i agree, but if i have someone up my bumper, and they don't seem to want to overtake, i generally assume its the cops. So i either start taking side roads to see if they are following, or slow right down. Speeding up is a sure way to get a ticket. Also, if they are anything like the police around here, putting in a complaint is a good way to have them sitting in your street almost everyday, pulling you over. Going to the ombudsman doesn't always work

how can lfs erase nfs save games? you seem to be blaming LFS, when you haven't told us what has happened, how it happened etc.

Wtb more 80's sports cars dammit

I'm still trying to save for an F40 or f40 competizione, but so hard to save money :/
Any tips for earning "quick cash" legit (money glitches would be cool too lol)

What version are you running?
What version are your graphics drivers?

Wait until the motor needs that fancy plasma bore reline or whatever it is..
can't wait to see the pricing on that.

The response i usually hear is "i play a lot online" etc

good idea, might fire up my spam catcher account later lol

reasons auction house is shit. I had that scooby in F2, it was a nice car, but deffo not worth that much. How about they cap the auction house to some sane level (say 50-100k over maximum original purchase + cost of mods) no car/design is worth 99999999999 etc.

Vista 32bit. Don't see the point of changing to W7 until the bugs associated with all new microsoft OS's are ironed out.

I noticed in the drags the Datsun510 with rb26dett conversion seems to be weapon of choice. I have the veyron worked off it's chops, but it's not as quick as i expected (dulled due to it's immense weight i assume)
