Forza 4 Super Shopping Car Deluxe Championship

[MotorsportTom]

Right chaps, I'm planning on running a championship now I'm back up and running online.

I'm well aware of the impeding release of Forza Horizion however I'm doubtful I'll get it straight away and I'm curious as to whether anybody will be interested in this as a championship.


So the format is as follows;

The kind of car your Nan might drive to the shops, I.e, Nissan Micra, Ford Ka, Mazda 2, Toyota Aygo etc.

PI limit of A600
Must be RWD
Must have an engine swap (I.e. Ford Ka swaps to the Focus RS engine)
Must have a minimum output of 300bhp
Must NOT have Forza aero

All other upgrades are as you see fit.

Now who fancies some of the action?

I'm planning on running this on WEDNESDAY nights (starting WEDNESDAY the 10th Oct if possible)with a 3 lap qualifier followed by a 12-15 lap race reverse grid (if you can still do so?) with the scoring system same as F1 however if there are less than 12 runners in a lobby points shall only be given down to 8th position in the same format. Want to be racing at 8pm if we can all make it.

Also upon the reverse grid there shall be a 1 second roll off to avoid collisions on the first lap.


I think that's as clear as I can get it so stick your name down if you're in

Whats the class/PI limit?

[MotorsportTom]

D'oh I knew there was something I had forgotten!

A600 is the PI limit

My nan has a 1930s Bugatti but she drives her '63 corvette to the shops, unless it's a big shop, when she needs a good sized boot she'll drive her m5.

Oh really? My Nan uses her 850bhp Enzo for all duties but I'll stick to Micras etc for the sake or the championship

You in?

[LiamB]

Any chance of having it during the week instead?

Would love to take part but barely at home on the weekends.

I'm in. Game tag Strictly4lulz

[MotorsportTom]

Could potentially have it on a weekday, perhaps Thursday evenings if it's not already taken?

Me and CypherP are on and having a look at a couple of cars now if anyone wants to join

Sorry to be of trouble, if you can't then don't worry!

TBH, lightweight, RWD and twitchier than a peado in Toys 'R' us, this championship is basically tailored to you


Also shortly I'll be updating the OP with a car list and track list.

Oh go on then...

After Monday evening's shenanigans, I need to improve on the overall handling of the Mazda. Or find a better car!

Wow a whole 4 people!

Glad to see there is some interest though, if anyone fancies it I'll probably be on for a little bit of testing around 8/9pm?

Sure.

[CypherP]

Can I possibly throw the inclusion of the Fiesta ST into the mix, as I've sat there today and made a reasonable tune and pieced a paint together and would be a shame to leave it sitting there...

[MotorsportTom]

See you then CBR, feel free to add my Gamertag if you are on before me, or I shall do likewise.

Cypher I'm sort of inclined to say no to the Fiesta as it's a warm hatch rather than a shopping car... same as the Corsa VXR which is why it isn't included!

Sorry bud, although the Yaris is also acceptable to use?

[MotorsportTom]

Oh also this is what I'm running.
