Forza 2 - the alternative championship...

[redbarron84]

Won't be able to make Sunday's race as i'm gonna be back in he doldrums of North Wales where we have only just discovered elecricity

Am I right in saying the worse two rounds you do will be droppd from the total points tally at the end?

[BCA]

Red - yep, that was the idea... not sure how well it'll work logistically yet - but I am sure someone will agree to be a willing assistant in working it out?

Guys - 9:10 after top gear (with time to load up) is when the next race is. Sebring 2 mile track, practicing frowned upon... (by me atleast!)

[LukeBird]

Good good!
I'll try and have a quick practice of the track, I can't remember which one is the 2 mile one!

[LukeBird]

Loz and I had some practice earlier.
I managed a 1.22.907 wherever that fits in...
It's a tricky track to get a decent lap on and my next best was half a sec down on that.
Should be good!

[Graham.J]

Gosh I haven't had time to practice this week. Going to have to be a few last-minute laps before Top Gear!

[LukeBird]

I'll be around most of the day on Forza I reckon (bar TG and the F1); if anyone fancies some fun...

May as well use my day of annual leave for important things!

[BCA]

I've just done a few laps practice - which is all I've managed this week, been stuck at work on stupid shifts, so have missed my usual practice time with G!

I think my best was a 1.23.2 - but I reckon theres a reasonable amount of time to be taken off that... just had to give up the TV to make sure I can guarantee it later for TG/PHM3GTC.

Its a verrry easy place to lose 3 seconds a lap on one mistake though... should make for some interesting racing.

WOOP just managed a 1min 22.634 very pleased with this lap i think i could MAYBE get a 1 22. 3 if i can master the first corner but that would be a PERFECT lap

looking forward to tonights racing

[Graham.J]

Only had time to put in 3 laps as I'm sorting other bits and bobs out but wanted to get a feel for the track before we race. Did a 1:22.733 so happy with that for a quick blast. Tricky track to string a full, decent lap together on.

+1
I was quite happy with my time, but I'm not anymore!

[redbarron84]

Good luck tonight boys, I'll be with you in spirit!

(Loz, in the nicest possible way........I hope you do badly tonight )

[BCA]

[LukeBird]

Sorry everyone!

I'll try and get myself put down tomorrow!


I'll take last in the final race (that was a given after my ste driving) and ducked out because I have to be up at 0520. Hope you had fun.

[BCA]

Awesome as always, the after races were the real highlight as usual... god I rely on abs!

Managed to avoid lukebird for the actual races then had some awesome battles with G/Loz to the end, that last corner was great for over/under taking!

Will update the first post in a bit...

First post updated.

Any suggestions for next weeks races?

Sunset Infield Long?

[BCA]

Any more suggestions or shall we go to sunset?

[LukeBird]

I don't mind
I think I've suggested all the other tracks we've been to!

[Lozza_s]

yes excelent move on the last corner i was debaiting on doing a lukebird but i let you go . yes i think sunset infield would be good (hard but good)

will try and upload some photos tonight

[BCA]

"Doing a LukeBird" No one had mentioned it until then...

I think LukeBird was behind me for my "moment" in practice at the first corner, having not had much practice, I decided to try something that left me sliding around the whole corner and slowly spinning 180 degrees... a little embarrising that.

Sorry!
I'll try and not brake quite so late again!
Annoyingly, I wouldn't have created carnage on my last move in the last race, at least I don't think....
