Video for anyone wanting to see better than the ghost.

Might see if I can get a recording with all the telemetry.

That car looks materially more stable and predictable than the ones I've been using.

It’s frustrating me now because I’ve managed another 5mph across the line, but can’t do the first corner as well. But if I can match the first corner and the two right handlers mid lap, there’s a tonne of time in there.

I've joined in to this as a way of getting back into Forza, I'd put it down for a bit as it was getting a bit stale as I only play offline.
I used to be OK when racing online with the PH crew, but I can barely keep up with the back of the pack here!

Welcome aboard, the mess this week is all Jimmsy's fault.

At least it's not a transit van on an off road course.


Or the sagaris.

The Transit really doesn't seem so bad at the moment

First few attempts this evening, hate the car hate the track.

Will see if I can get the hoonigan car as this RX43 thing is awful, oversteers on slow corners but understeers on the final fast be right hander.

This will not be my will. Mark my words.

Imagine the fun if I get bumped down to third...

Whichever car I have, it is a hound.

Not be my WEEK lol (not will).

I'm in a bad mood, no time to play and I hate it when my first attempts are so far away from the pace.

I see there are some upgraded Hoonigan Fiestas now on the scoreboard, I thought it was no tuning or upgrades this week?

One of the fixes to fix the fix that was fixing the first fix was to allow upgrades but not tuning still.

Ahh ok thanks.

Has everyone done the seasonal at the Festival circuit while they're there? Gets you a GT86 for 3 races in an A class modern sports car. The GT86 has a 4.5 V8 engine swap option (the Ferrari engined GT4586 car) and there's the Rocket Bunny widebody and the paint job on the paint store for the (nearly) full effect. New seasonal tomorrow so get in quick.



Ok you can't have the bonnet off to show the Ferrari V8, but it's close enough



As for the Fiestas, I've joined the upgraded Hoonigan to S1 880ish club. Sorry (not sorry).

These Fiestas are wasted on this track. I just took the RX43 for a drive around the island and it’s fantastic same with the M-Sport RS, they are mega off road and on long sweeping corners. I’m still struggling with understeer in the race.

The original gymkhana one was perfect for the track

How do I even get the version that appears to be the faster version? I can't buy it in the auto show and in can't see it in any auctions. Is it a case of pot luck on the Auction? Or having to progress single player more to unlock it? I don't really have the time to progress single.

I can’t find one for sale in the Auctions I’ve tried to buy the Raul one too and the bids won’t be accepted for some reason
