Seeing how the first Forza 4 car club is now oversubscribed I thought I'd add either a second club for any overspill or those late to the party (like myself) or it could be used as a reserve list for the first club.

I'll leave you guys to discuss which route people might prefer.

I've taken the overspill from the first club and put it in this second club.

This club is now set up. However....

Due to the 20 letter restriction on club names its now known as Pistonheads 2. The clan tag is PHSM so that will denote the different members between both clubs (if this one gets off the ground).

I won't invite anymore people (will see how PH1 populates for a while) so you will have to do a search using the above info. Any requests to join, I or Altrezia will quickly accept.

I've shared some of my more typical 'Pistonheads'.

Including a nutty Ford RS with RWD and a V8 in the classic Texaco Steve Soper livery.

Not going through the list of everything, but a list of good cars to pull out in online lobbies would be good - even if you just take a stock P1 and the only tuning is to max the aero, it is leagues ahead of the stock cars.

If everyone just keeps track of what they put in that is worth driving, you can have a quick look at the list before going online and racing.

Neither of mine are in there yet, but will do so later.


Edit - as far as I'm aware, there is no point to putting stock cars in there, as they can be selected from the car list in an online lobby anyway - only makes sense for stuff with crazy paintjobs or tunes.

This is a great idea.

I'm going to start going through and getting rid of anything not tuned or without a paintjob. If any member sharing a car could do the same it'd cut down a lot of my time. Cheers. (Oh, and I will keep the rare stuff like DBR1 or 250GTO etc).

Added around 50ks worth of saab 900 turbo as felt I wasn't contributing. Are people sharing some of the standard prize basic cars which is filling the garage or is this happening automatically?

yep, very annoying tbh! There's a list on the last page to hopefully keep a track of what cars people have added. Doesnt seem to be catching on. There are still loads of duplicated cars and standard stuff that isnt needed.
T'is on my 'to do' list today. I was hoping a few people might help me out and ditch theirs.

I've a great Autocross car going in later. A600 Fiesta.

Love the tiger stripes on the Escort. That was my first thought about painting a car but then got distracted by actually driving!

Right. I've spent an hour clearing out some of the duplicates or standard tunes. As quick as I was deleting them new cars were being added.

So I've given up.

I'd just like to echo what others have said. If its not tuned or painted don't worry about sharing it.

Looks like a few of us might have to get ruthless and bin anything unless it's obviously been tuned.

Would be great to use the table of cars above. In fact maybe that's the solution. If the car doesn't appear in the table above it can be deleted? What's peoples thoughts on that?

When I look through the garage some of the cars just come up as a black square until you choose them. Anyone else get this?
Yeah, but I think (but I wasn't concentrating fully) it was all the ones I've deleted.

I'm trying not to duplicate, well sort of. The 635 I added class C because the other one is class A.
This could/is getting complicated. hehe

Good chance I will be around tonight.

However, it won't be till the missus buggers off to bed. So it might be late.

BTW I'm very happy to be part of the new Club. The old club had 100 members of which well over 70% were no longer active in the online side of Forza 4 including the Club leader..hence the club had become completely blocked-up with no-one interested in managing it.
I had sent the club leader a handful of emails and XBL messages asking if he'd clear out the inactive members and accept the new ones and invite people in that had requested to join on this thread.
I also offered to take over the day to day running of the club if he didn't have the time to do it but no interest was shown to any of the above requests. frown


You are all welcome to join this new club but please only do so if you are going to use it.
Jay, Graham and myself all have full access to club management smile

Club tag is "xxPH"

Sorry dude. Only got the one message from you four days ago. As per PM happy to hand over reigns but I see you've made other arrangements in the last few days. Let me know one way or the other as I've not given forza the time it probably deserves recently.

Oh and forgot to mention. I noticed all the co-leaders had been binned for some reason. No idea how that happened or when it happened.

Weird.

No problem fella smile we'll stick with the new club as it will be easier to start a fresh with it than to go through the old one and clear out all the non forza players.

No worries mate. Good luck with the new club!
