Forza Horizon 4 !

[shirt]

no mods and no setting changes?

im ok with people using whatever aids they want, i just dont want to have to use them myself.

bit miffed as my 13th spot is the same time as 14th! the game must recognise i'm more handsome so placed me higher

Just out of interest why do people like not modding the cars? I really like that aspect.

To see how much slower than Cutters we are in the same car

In this instance because I wanted something a little slower! And because I haven't long started the game so am trying to save up for the houses etc and I can't afford to keep spending £££ on all the modification combinations!

That's because you set the lap time first. I only managed to set it last night about 22:00.

waste of time doing that unless you are really attached to a car. i did at first and spunked a ton of cash getting nowhere. now i just look at the global class leaderboard for the circuit and scroll until i find the cars in our chosen group. if you see a load of one particular model, chances are thats the best you'll find.

i forgot to add my congratulations to stephen, big ask to knock cutters off the top step, well done.

[Cutters]

Congrats to Steven, tricky car and track combo so very well deserved!

This might be old news, but as we're on PH, talking about Forza, and wondered if they could classify their cars.......I am so tempted by a 'D - 100' for my slow IRL car

My car is probably D class too (2017 Citroen C3 1.2). The closest to it in the game by brand is probably the DS3 Racing, that's got a bit more power than mine though (82bhp vs 200bhp) . Yes I did paint the DS3 in the game the same colour as my car...

Congratulations to St3ven1 for winning this round.

Amazing effort Steven!

Will post an updated table this week.

Thanks guys.

16 places separated by 1.3s, that's a really close leaderboard, means that even a small improvement would see you gain a few places.

Oh how exciting!

BMW M5 1988, no mods, C594, whichever aids you like.
Lakehurst Copse Circuit.

I haven't driven the car or track so we'll see how it goes!

Please choose leaderboard position that will select the following week's challenge.

I don't think that's correct, I had wondered the same after having the exact same time as someone else. After searching, it seems there is a more accurate time in the background and the times we see are rounded. Still doesn't make it any less annoying.

Thanks, there was definitely more determination with it being 'my challenge'. We all know normal service will be resumed next week.

Thanks Cutters. You probably wouldn't believe when I got that time, 23:59 last night. I managed a 55.3 but touched the wall on the last corner.


As for the complaints about ABS, look back at any previous leaderboard and you'll see that approximately 2/3rds of people use ABS. So there would have been even more complaints if it was forced ABS off. It was a challenge with a completely level playing field, that's what I wanted. Thanks to everyone for taking part.

PS, if I get to choose again, it'll be a Tuscan with a big turbo kit and ABS on.

We will go for 7th place this week to decide next week's challenge.

Thanks - how the hell am I second?!

Looks like I'm coming off furlough soon anyway, so back down the table I'll go

Does that include the week before too? Don’t think I saw a table after the week before TVR challenge

Yep mate it does. I didn't do one last week as I was a bit busy.

Only had a quick go this morning but I’m really liking this one, can’t seem to keep enough speed up the back hill section, I come round the right hander in 2nd then the change to 3rd kills the momentum.

[ajprice]

just about sums it up.
I'm sure EVO4 blade will catch me at some point, I'm expecting to be last at this.

Just had a play before bed. No idea how a 1:19 is even possible!

Nice car and track combo though, one where us slow pokes can learn a lot about lines etc

Cutters will win with a 1.18:6. I'm hoping to just about break into the 1:18s.

[Harfi88]

I think I’m at 1.25 or something equally as depressing, I’m fairly good through the first and last sections it’s the middle I’m struggling with as I mentioned before.

[vonuber]

You can do some top quality paint jobs on it
