No points again then laugh so close but so far.
When you get to your limit its so damned frustrating, that first corner is where its all being lost for me.

Oh well, on to the next.
When I came off last night at 23:30 I was just behind you by about half a second and I was able to make time on you at the first corner but I lost time to you in a few places and can’t make it up.

Yes that first corner and probably the 180 degree turn have been the hardest to get right I think.

I've been progressing the single player this morning, really quite enjoyed the gauntlet, and I started the Lego world also, that's a bit naff, but I may as well complete it. Trying to do the summer seasonal 50% to get an old Porsche too

For the 3 races with the Mercedes truck in the weekly forzathon, upgrade it and do the engine swap, I did AWD too, it was low S1 class PI. Coastal Charge was the easiest to win, and turn the AI down, and hope they crash into each other or traffic. It was a git to do for me.

I wasn't really impressed by the Lego dlc, so I ignored it for a long time. I recently completed all the businesses and stories in the main game, so tried the Lego world again and there are some parts of it that I really enjoyed. The races around the Brickwork town centre are really fun, the slippery plastic road surfaces and lots of 90 degree bends are chaotic with powerful cars.

The Eagle Speedway race track in the Lego game is a great addition to the game too. There was a seasonal championship recently that included 3 of the speedway courses in a S1 or S2 car at night, and that was the hardest I've had to work at a race in Horizon - I kept trying to lean into the corners, and waving the controller around when that didn't work.

I’ve not had much enthusiasm recently but I really enjoyed this week, I used Cutters tune and the car felt great to use. I hit the wall at a low 1m time.I think I need a new console as mine takes about 5min to load the game.

I'm happy do set something but it will be tonight after 5pm at the earliest. Street race has been mentioned as a track idea a few times as they have a Rivals section and we haven't done any, happy to give one of those a go for this week? If it is, as it's a new thing I won't go silly with the cars like the off roaders for the last one I did.

Could always try a blueprint too, still unsure if they are actually useable for rivals though??

Nice close week this week as I’d hoped for! Glad I didn’t get too many complaints at the choice haha!

Street scene would be good to try for a week? Maybe a normal car selection as mentioned whilst we trial it? Traffic would hopefully make it a little more unpredictable which would be a laugh

Ok here we go*

Season 3
Round 15 of 16
Wind Farm Rush (Street Scene)
Track Toys, S2 940, any mods, any assists

  • (This is all new for our little Rivals thing, there are no club times on the leaderboard at all. I'm probably going to be crap at this choice, but I thought it was a bit of a change as we haven't done track toys for a while, if ever. It's Street Scene, it's at night, there is traffic on the roads, if we don't like it, we won't do it again and won't speak of it again, just like the TVR, The Ariel cross country, and the rally cars at Mortimer Gardens hehe . )

Disclaimer/don't shoot me message over. Have fun and let's see what happens.

I’ve just timed how long it takes from power on to the festival playlist screen. 4m34s ! How much faster are the new consoles ?
