Forza 6 GT3 (ish) championship

[idlewillo]

I have the idea to run a small race season using some of the GT3 type cars, there are 10 cars around the R808 to 819 range listed below. Gonna keep it real simple, stock tunes, choose any car you like, if you don’t like a car change it I’m not gonna keep you to one car if you don’t like it, but try not to be obvious. If someone is a lot slower then the rest there are a couple of cars higher up the scale which could be considered as one off’s. Please note it’s the people who race that make or break a series so play nice and fair.

take 2 - edit for new series
Ok then more or less the same as before, 2 races per night a sprint (approx 15min) and main race (approx 45min), sprint race to have random grid main race to have reverse grid 2 second delay, no damage but tires and fuel on for both. Lobby opens at 9pm on a Tuesday.
As said before cars to remain standard but tunes are allowed if you want to.

Been out of the loop for the last few Forza's, succumbed and bought and XBox 1 for this one. If it's ok I'll jump in and trundle round at the back!

looks like we may have a race on.

for comparison i'm been able to do 15 laps at Monza before needing to pit for fuel, low 1:53's (clean) is my quickest so far, the merc is a handful just doesn't seem to have any grip.

Jeeez 1:55.3 is my quickest so far

Will prob be in the Audi R8 or maybe the Lamborghini as they are the best sounding.

i wouldn't worry to much, i spend more time spinning at the chicane or falling off the last corner. On the odd occasion when i put the lap together it goes quite well but most laps are high 54's to low 55's. The merc is one of those cars you drive at 90% and its feels quite good but as soon as you push beyond it cant keep up and you end up backwards in the gravel.

[AndyD360]

Just had a quick play on Rivals

Best of a clean 1.53.4 after 9 laps - bit lucky, probably running low 54's in the main. No tyre wear so no idea how many laps it'll manage though

[idlewillo]

practice session Tuesday 17/11/15, lobby opens at 9pm

[Chunkychucky]

All being well and good I'll be up and running from Monday! Forgive me, can we 'rent' these cars or am I going to have to grind away and buy one?

[eltax91]

I might be around tomorrow at 9pm. How do I locate/ join the lobby if I'm back home in time?
