This meet up thing sounds interesting, I've not been to Silverstone before and September would give me a chance to sort out a new car too.

GingerPixel I sent you're invite out, hope you got it, if not let me know and I will sort it out for you.

Thanks mate yea I've got it, having a server issue that means I can't accept though. Turn 10 are supposedly gonna sort it out for me.

In the meantime I'd appreciate some more Forza players on my friends list so anyone feel free to add me. GT is GingerPixel

Cheers, have a smashing weekend folks

Can anyone explain what the latest Rivals event on Motegi East is all about?

It's the new SEMA one in the FRS/GT86, it gives you 3 laps and as far as I can tell it takes an average time from all three but I'm at least 20 seconds down and I can't figure out why. My quickest lap was a 1:38... and all three were clean, but it shows as 2:04... on the leaderboard.

It drove me up the wall last night trying to figure out where I was going wrong.

I think there is some confusion over what is going on:

When I tried it the recorded time was for all three laps total, while my rival (someone from the club) was for a single lap.

Brilliant, cheers mate. i did have a quick look on their forums last night but I couldn't find anything.

I know what I did now though, I carried on and quit out half way round my second lap so the total time was 2:04, if I had quit out as soon as I crossed the line it would have been a proper standing start time instead.

I'll leave it now, I doubt the glitch will be an easy fix.

almost never, not spontaneously anyway.

maybe we should try and have a regular, recurring evening when people show up for races.

I've been racing public lobbies for a while with the odd organised event now and then with other clubs.

I don't think we've had a night of racing with the PH regulars for a long time , it would be good to get something going again. Coincidentally I still have all the B495 cars I tuned for John's classic events in my garage.

Fatty, you know you had that problem with your forza disc, how was it resolved? New disc? I have to repeatedly punch the top of it to make it work hehe

New Xbox mate frown

Or, a new DVD drive if you're good at that sort of thing. It was a strange problem, every other disc worked fine so it could be a case of the save file being too big to read or something equally bizarre.

I had that same problem I think, you have to tap the box on top as the disk spins for it to read? ended up getting a new box.

Oh bks. Can't afford that atm frown Just booked my theory and a bunch of driving lessons.

I'll take it apart and see what I can see. I am very familiar with the internals of the Xbox, so should be able to fix it.
